Star wars thread

[Akalonor]

No more OT , Im all for a good random conversation, but In a Star Wars thread it just WRONG!

[Seeme]

I can understand watching start wars and thinking its a good movie, but going on and on and on about it, its just so cheesy.

[Pauly3]

i wouldt say all the movies are  good
the newer ones are fucked up

[Akalonor]

Especially the cartoons, those are retarded in many ways. Droids are just tin cans that can't ID a Grenade , and pick it up instead, which is ridiculous. If they're combat droids of course they're going to be able to identify a grenade immediately, and fire on sight.

i didnt like the battle droids in the real movies either
the advantages of droids are supposed to be reaction time, lack of mercy or remorse and good aim
those "battle" droids have none except for droidekas which are somewhat slow and make a nice rocket target due to high cost

[Seeme]

What I don't get is those robo things with a shield, how to they die?

[Akalonor]

You can kill droidekas with a powerful enough blaster to lower the shield (Utilized by Anakin in the Phantom menace, he uses the N1 starfighters blasters to destroy the Droidekas that are attacking the others.)

I didn't know that those robo things had name . Now I know, Droidekas... btw you should play Star Wars: Republic Commando, it's a good game.

I guess the B1's were designed for one thing: Big Numbers, Low cost, swarm the enemy (Like the Conscripts in EF)
But with the B2 Super Battle droid, we have something closer to the Strelky.
Then, with the B3... We have the Trade Federation Shock Guards

[Akalonor]

The B3 is like an JS-7


Unless you mean C-B3 which are like shock guards (I had to look this one up on wookieepedia, never heard of it before)

[Seeme]

  What the **** are you talking about?

B3 Battledroid: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/B3_ultra_battle_droid
B2 Battledroid: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/B2
B1 Battledroid: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/B1_battle_droid

[Blackbishop]

Those Super Battle Droids are thugh, i can't imagine fighting an Ultra Battle Droid.

[Newbie.]

Argh i see, tbh, the CB-3 Fits a Shock Guard role...

The B3 fits the Maus role.

[Max 'DonXavi' von B.]

Nah.. I think B3 is kinda Knightscrossholder while B1 is just a conscript..
ATAT would be Maus - slow, easy to outmaneuver, anyway a big heap of steel with almost no short range skills. Would fit into Nazi technology.. bigger, heavier, worse.
