Of the Stardreadnoughts, the Executor-class was the most successful. Frankly I'd take an armada of these than something as impractical as Starkiller Base
+DanTHEman An armada of them with support ships and frigates for anti-starfighter measures would have been far harder to combat than Starkiller base. Even with just the sheer number of fighters they can hold At least the Death Stars had defensive guns and their superlasers could be used for destroying capital ships, like we see in Return of the Jedi. Starkiller base's weapon can clearly only be used for planet busting
+Revkor The Eclipse would be far more expensive given the superlaser and 10 gravity wells. And frankly the Executor-class alone has enough firepower to reduce the surface of a planet to molten slag without the need of a crust cracking superlaser. And frankly I'd rather have an intact planet than a new asteroid belt
Alexzander1989 which is why I suggested at least one to stop any flight. Heck in the old Star Wars Rebellion game my Death Fleet was an interdictor, 8 SSDs and a Death Star.
ilmevavi In the canon and in the legends they're both sensor and shield generators. Even during the Battle of Endor in Return Of The Jedi when the A-Wings took out one of the domes one of the bridge staff said "Sir, we've lost our bridge deflector shield!"
They say the Eclipse is a combination of the Executor, and the Death Star. As they pulled the Executors length and the Death Stars size and Super Laser and put them together and make the Eclipse
The Eclipse does exist in Star Wars Canon. However, Disney decided to make it an Executor-class dreadnought rather than Eclipse-class. It served as the Emperor's personal flagship, and later served as an escape craft and base of operations for the Imperial Remnant that would eventually become the First Order. Still, wouldn't it have been cool if the Eclipse had showed up at the Battle of Exegol? Even if it was Executor-class, it could have been modified to resemble its Legends counterpart more closely.
“Emperor Palestine envisioned an entire fleet of these dreadnaughts” J.J. Abrams: “thats a pretty cool idea” Edit: I know it says Palestine but its too funny not to leave as is
Cristian Smikle I hate that JJ did it and I hate a lot of things he did with ep 9 because I enjoyed TLJ a lot. For a lot of people that de-validates my opinions lol
While the Eclipse, Sovereign, and Executors are absolute classics and I love them to death, I think that if I were a Sith Lord I'd get a Vengeance class. It just looks so cool and intimidating, and it just gives off a Sith feel in appearance. It helps that it probably has a pretty heavy armament as well.
We are going to be doing a 2 player play-through of the new Lego Star Wars game. During which we will answer some of your guy's questions. So if you want your question to appear in the video, reply to this comment with your question!
@@LoneWolf20213 nope it not weak to starfighter the eclipse carry atleast 500 tie fighter which is alot for the corvettes iam dont agree the eclipse have realllly strong shield it would take the corvettes forever to destroy it and the eclipse could just easly ramm all the corvettes in its way
For those old republic dreadnaughts, I’d still consider them dreadnaughts because ships the size of large corvettes were used for the same role as Star Destroyers at this point in history, so for the time I would definitely consider it a dreadnaught
Althoug it easily would fall into the "Exception Category", as it definetely was consiedered a Dreadnougth by it's time. And the Providence-calss is also there, so why not the Malevolence?
Having played Absolute Corruption mod and Imperial Civil War: Thrawns Revenge for Empire At War: FOC, I'd say the Sovereign is my favorite Star Dreadnought. It's not as powerful s an Eclipse-class, but it's smaller, faster, and definitely cheaper. I also like the design somewhat better.
One day I hope a film or animated TV show shows off the 'official' specs of one of these ships in action because watching them in action in the current film/TV media it seems they carry 30-50 fighters and have about 20 guns max.
For the geonosian dreadnoughts, I just imagine them as the giant Formix ships from ender's game because their structure looks similar to geonosian technology
There's a book that came out recently called Empire's End that details the battle of Jakku and the origins of the First Order. More importantly it makes mention that the First Order have a Star Dreadnought called the Eclipse. Whether it's the same class as the one in the EU or it's a new Star Dreadnought with it's name just being a reference, I have a feeling we're going to see it in Episode 8.
I wish I could lead a fleet of Imperial ships like the following: x1 Assertor Class (Flagship) x2 Bellator Class x2 Praetor Class x3 Allegiance Class x4 Imperial II Class x2 Interdictor Class
I would like to command my fleet of: ×1 Assertor Class SSD ×2 Praetor Mark II Class Heavy Battlecruisers ×3 Allegiance Class Star Destroyers / Heavy Destroyers ×6 Imperial Class Star Destroyers / Heavy Destroyers ×7 Victory Class Star Destroyers ×13 Lancer Class Frigates (Effective Against Fighter) ×15 Raider Class Corvette (Very Effective Against Fighter) Note: Raider Class Corvette had 6 Turbolaser Turret, over 100 meter and carred 2 Fighter The Lancer Frigates had 20 laser cannon (AA Gun).
Attrition, rebellions (not just the Alliance), guerilla warfare, loss of central leadership, etc. Alexander the Great had one of if not the best militaries of the age, but his empire died with him.
After the death of the imperator the leadership wasn't clear and admirals started killing each other because they wanted more power. Due to the chaos in the higher ranks many important battles were lost leading to the viktory of the rebellion
+Ben's Wørld Yeah! It does not have the length over 5000 meters I think he said, but it was the largest ship in the Separatists I think Navy. I'm not too good on classifying the kinds of militaries different governments have, but I do know the classes of ships.
Ben's Wørld it has a length of 4,850 metres, close to being a dreadnought but was consided one as it was the largest ship in the separatist navy but its sister ship might be bigger then it.
I get exited when I think about massive ships, such executor class dreadnoughts, firing massive amounts of shots to their enemies, completely destroying them.
Something like the eclipse star destroyer would be a cool reason for an epic space battle in episode 8 or 9. Hopefully were going to see more of these large ships in canon again ;)
The Executor and the Eclipse are my favorites ^^ It's fun destroying Empire and Alliance capital ships with the Eclipse main laser in the last mission of "Forces of Corruption" campaign.
Anyone else think the Umbarans are underused? They had so much potential. It doesn't even make sense for the republic and empire to completely ignore their highly advanced technology
That was because Poe managed to blow up EVERY cannon on top of the dreadnought (Which probably would be impossible for almost any other pilot) AND even then all but 1 of the bombers blew up before they even reached the dreadnought
"We'll just put up pictures of space battles in their place"
Beautiful line
Of the Stardreadnoughts, the Executor-class was the most successful. Frankly I'd take an armada of these than something as impractical as Starkiller Base
The would probably be more affective and harder to destroy because those super weapons are all the same almost
a fleet of Eclispes would be better or at least have an Eclispe i nthe fleet of SSD's the Eclipse have interdictiing abilites.
+DanTHEman

executor super star destroyers... "almost invincible in combat"....gets destroyed by 1 ship in Episode 6
well I guess it took a lot of firepower to destroy the shield generators
Well it did take the entire missile load of two A-Wings just to take out 1 generator.
+brawlerdude555 and the balls on top aren't even generators they are sensors
ilmevavi In the canon and in the legends they're both sensor and shield generators. Even during the Battle of Endor in Return Of The Jedi when the A-Wings took out one of the domes one of the bridge staff said "Sir, we've lost our bridge deflector shield!"
+brawlerdude555 that is a fault in the movie in official "blueprints" the balls have always been sensors not shield generators
The providence is the largest ship in the separatist fleet

Mr 850 Hell yes! But not by Disney. after they fucked Episode VII, they can go fuck themselves
How come people on the internet only know how to bitch.

We are going to be doing a 2 player play-through of the new Lego Star Wars game. During which we will answer some of your guy's questions. So if you want your question to appear in the video, reply to this comment with your question!
Do you have plans to do à video on the vice chacellor. Don,t think that people know alot abort him.
How old are you and why did you decide to make Star Wars Lore videos?
Do you have any ships from different universes or non-canon ones that you think should be canon?
Also, what are the fastest ships in the Star Wars universe?
+Commander Bacara its a super weapon dude
I would die if I saw them mfs landing on earth
+xX Valtiel Xx I bet you can see that big beautiful bitch even in orbit it's so big.
i think that some of them are soo big that they would be visible even if they would land on the moon
+felix winker I'd rejoice. And then use a fighter jet like an X-Wing to try and destroy itl
we'd just nuke it lol 😜
Sure, drop a bomb on one of these. They definitely won't blast it out of the sky then totally level the ground beneath them with turbo laser fire.
Ahh, the classic Executor, my favorite still to this day.
Wassup?
Executor is my favorite
Eclipse is my favorite
Carter Day it was weak to star fighters and corvettes though
Not with support ships
I like the Executor

imagine an imperial fleet with a complete death star 2 parked in earth's orbit ..how fast can we surrender?
Tarek Chamas they could take earth with a pair of victory class destroyers.
yup the empire destroyed worlds with more advanced people than us with one star destroyer and a couple frigates
Nah fuck surrendering, I’ll walk up to the nearest stormtrooper patrol and ask where is the nearest recruitment center
@@animewaifu1001 BIG BRAIN
Nah we would put up a fight

For those old republic dreadnaughts, I’d still consider them dreadnaughts because ships the size of large corvettes were used for the same role as Star Destroyers at this point in history, so for the time I would definitely consider it a dreadnaught
YES! I've been waiting for this forever!
Malevolence anyone?
Was expecting to see it too !
Titan Smash Games dosnt have the length to be a dreadnought, 4.845 metres is not a dreadnought
Althoug it easily would fall into the "Exception Category", as it definetely was consiedered a Dreadnougth by it's time. And the Providence-calss is also there, so why not the Malevolence?
Titan Smash Games yeah,she was a lot times bigger than the providence class
Titan Smash Games wait,which malevolence, the huge imperial dreadnought or the one with a superweapon?
I love your channel. It fills in so many unanswered questions about star wars for me. Thank you!

bro this video is the best.the level of detail in the renderings is incredible also the data and specs on the ships is incredible.keep it up
I’m actually thinking of making a custom Dreadnought, but I dont have enough pieces and don’t want to take my stuff apart
What out of legos?
@@CHANN3L_NAME the big star destroyer in the beginning of the last jedi
@@nitrobladezxl2994 oh nice
@@nitrobladezxl2994 Do you mean the siege dreadnought, or Snoke's ship? Because Snoke's ship is called the Supremacy.
You need to start posting more, I watch your videos before I go to bed and I’ve watched them all multiple times. POST MORE!!
One day I hope a film or animated TV show shows off the 'official' specs of one of these ships in action because watching them in action in the current film/TV media it seems they carry 30-50 fighters and have about 20 guns max.

These ships are so badass.
Here I was thinking a star destroyer is big

That's a lot of variations of Space Pizza.
For the geonosian dreadnoughts, I just imagine them as the giant Formix ships from ender's game because their structure looks similar to geonosian technology
You are my favorite Star Wars channel
Can you go into the history of each Executor class vessel?
That's a good idea!
TheNVSK people should know about executor II aka lusankya
Yeah I will do in the next months look forward to it!
Little did he know....
There would be an even bigger ship a year later.
Shipbuilder: How many dreadnoughts do you need?
Empire: *Yes*
I would LOVE to see all of these cannon again! EPESCIALLY the eclipse ones because how powerful they are
I would love them to make the First Order Dreadnought a lego set, and also for them to make the Eclipse as a lego set
I love these all types/variation/classes videos! 😄
What about ships like "the malevolence"?
The malevolence was pretty much a modified providence class carrier
its a Subjugator-class cruiser
it's a heavy cruiser
sorry, i thought he said carrier in the video and i went with it
What about the imperium star destroyer? Look it up, it was stupidly large.
There's a book that came out recently called Empire's End that details the battle of Jakku and the origins of the First Order.

x58000 Supremacy
x14 Megabats
the last time I was so early was when everybody was shocked about star wars episode 5: the empire strikes back
Quick question: why did the empire lose again?
All is as the Force wills it.
Because of Plot Armor
Attrition, rebellions (not just the Alliance), guerilla warfare, loss of central leadership, etc. Alexander the Great had one of if not the best militaries of the age, but his empire died with him.
After the death of the imperator the leadership wasn't clear and admirals started killing each other because they wanted more power. Due to the chaos in the higher ranks many important battles were lost leading to the viktory of the rebellion
The rebel has plot armor
Your videos are always great, i have been subscribed since before! Keep it up! Make more of thes types of videos!! (Videos about capital ships)
Soo how many of those are cannon?
Just the Executor-class Star Dreadnought.
+Fact Free and the Seperatist Providence Class
Niki Georgiev Oh yeah, that one too :)
+Fact Free well that's retarded those ships are awesome
+Fact Free what would be your reaction if they make the eclipse class canon AND they added it to the next Star Wars movie
Great video FactFree! Please make a video about the different lightsaber forms.
what about the melevolence
Othello Velgara wow, it has a length of 4.845 metres, 155 metres of the rule of being a dreadnought.
Stephen South still its could knock out the power of a fleet in 1 shot
it
Othello Velgara yes but the ion cannon has nothing to do with it being a dreadnought or not, it still has to reach the rule of 5.000 metres or more.
Ranked Games Its a heavy cruiser
Thanks for the knowledge! Awesome work!
2:09 ermergherd Pride of the Core!!!!
Finally...Been waiting for this vid
what about the dreadnaught class hevy cruisers from the katana fleet and others?
There is a difference. Dreadnaught-class are heavy frigate if i rememeber well
Eliott Ducarme he mentioned every single dreadnaught except the heavy cruiser not frigate.
3 of those could fight a star destroyer they are badass
The katana fleet was propably a to big topic to put it in this video
I fell as if the malevence in the clone wars used by the seperatists deserve a spot on this list
what about the Malevolence?
Ben's Wørld Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption Expansion Pack
um...
+Ben's Wørld Yeah! It does not have the length over 5000 meters I think he said, but it was the largest ship in the Separatists I think Navy. I'm not too good on classifying the kinds of militaries different governments have, but I do know the classes of ships.

I like the Eclipse class the most
I kinda find the length thing stupid, it sucks should be Armament or Armor or however many ships it could hold.
It worked as a general thing, like how tonnage is used by navies today.

The image of the comic with the conquere class dreadnaughts looks like a party gone out of control.
I love how the Harrower looks
Almost invincible, completely destroyed by one a wing on accident
1:08 So it can ram enemy vessels... like the UNSC Infinity.

Eclipse-class Dreadnoughts is my favorite
Psychic88 Executor is my favorite
I really like the asserter class.
i would have thought the malevolence would be on this list since at the time it was one of the largest "cruiser crushers ever"
My favorite are asurture class dreadnoughts
Not too big but well armed and armored
The Assertor *
The Executor and the Eclipse are my favorites ^^
It's fun destroying Empire and Alliance capital ships with the Eclipse main laser in the last mission of "Forces of Corruption" campaign.
Neobahamutfr36 I'm playing it now xD the mod I'm using has all these ships and more!

Finally, thank you for this.
Hey now, you're a all star class dreadnought
Just subscribedI like your info videos, can you do one on how Yoda became a powerful jedi?
The more bigger the Star Destroyer, the more invincible it will be
Almost invincible in combat. Destroyed by a single fighter.

"We'll have to destroy them ship to ship."
Love the Eclipse class.
I feel so nerdy for loving this lol
_Awesome_
*Video*
-As Always-
The bellator and ECLIPSE Are my favorite dreadnoughts.
I like the Executor class and the Eclipse class Star Dreadnoughts.
Anyone else think the Umbarans are underused? They had so much potential. It doesn't even make sense for the republic and empire to completely ignore their highly advanced technology
All I would need is an Ark Mechanicus, that thing would blow all of these ships away from distances unimaginable in the Star Wars Universe.
I find it hard to believe that the Resistance could take one down with a dozen extremely slow bombers.
That was because Poe managed to blow up EVERY cannon on top of the dreadnought (Which probably would be impossible for almost any other pilot) AND even then all but 1 of the bombers blew up before they even reached the dreadnought
Bruh, imagine that you’re chilling at home, then all of the sudden, 6.5 billion metal Doritos pop out of nowhere and start bombarding you.
LOVE THIS. I hope they make the eclipse Canon.
