*Beeriokart with Bombastic TOMORROW!*
Well don’t forget. They did use CR-92 Modified Corvettes.
What’s the name of the song you use in intros and outros?
I would want an EC Henry Imperial Nebulon-B
If I was a smuggler I would choose any Imperial ship, an imperial one stardestroyer for example to stay completely away from suspension and to top it all off I'll make sure it has the most advanced clocking technology.
The name for the ship I would give it is the "Omega-Tyrant"
What does Han Solo mean when he talks about the Millennium Falcon, “She’ll make .5 past light speed.” In what way do light speed engines work?
They watched A New Hope and loved the opening.
Yea I can tell y’all liked it
Yes my lord but we have captured them nevertheless
It's no Aethersprite, but still an admirable ship
I mean..... it still got shot up and boarded.
Yes I think so
Simple: they played to much republic at war and thought the empire would fighter spam, thus they spent a few days credits on gunships and corvettes.
Even though CR90s are trash at fighter screening.
@@FXIIBeaver ya, in EAW I tend to play empire but in RAW I tend to use them to protect the lower parts of the map from fighter spam, until my main fleet can secure mon cali, mandolore, and mygetto systems and close by planets.
Unfortunately the Empire decided to spam stat destroyers
@@FXIIBeaver In lore or EaW? I find they work well enough even in the vanilla game. Their lack of a Weapon Boost really hurts them though.
@Wicket ya and all of 2 fighters it could hold.
Got to love corellian design philosophy. Every "civilian" vessel easily modified to be a formidable gunship.
Historically this wasn't too uncommon. Until the steam engine age, there was generally little difference between a trade ship and a small - medium warships. Only the largest warships (ships of the line with 3-4 decks of guns) were structerly different. And, even the most peaceful ocean going warship had some canons, as pirates are significantly less cool in real life or in a galaxy far away.
@@TheNinjaDC Yeah, while the aesthetics of space combat in Star Wars are based on that of WW2 naval combat, the way civilian ships can be readily converted to war and most have at least some arms feels like it's right out of the Age of Sail.
It's part of why the Corellians were so damn dangerous. I hate to say it, but they are like Space Texas in that regard. Hell, they even had their own Jedi up until the purges.
@@jrggrop
Yeah, the battleships in Star Wars are, weird when space combat has a WW2 aesthetic. I like to describe them as WW2 battleships, but with only their secondary armament.
So, like an Iowa with no 16 inch guns, but just 5 inch guns(turbo lasers) and 40mm anti air guns (laser canons).
Given how unpredictable the countless situations you face in the galaxy can be, it doesn't surprise me that many ships offer huge room for upgrades. Otherwise your ships wouldn't have much appeal to potential buyers. Customization is the theme here. After all, it plays into the realistic "used future" aesthetic of the Star Wars Universe.
Even the Empire used the CR-90 in Legends. Technically, as a member of the Imperial government, Leia's Tantive IV would have been classified as an "Imperial ship" to all except those in the know.
I think technically it was property of Alderaan rather than the Empire, though Alderaan was legally an imperial world so who knows?
@@DIEGhostfishIf its property of the imperial senate and so its imperial. So it legally would belong to the galactic senate
The Empire uses the CR-90 in CANON as well!
@@Josh-ju8bc I AM the senate
TK-421, senators cars aren’t property of the senate, they buy their own cars.
Ship yards: so how much CR 90 do you want to keep?
Rebel Alliance: *Yes*
*Points to GR75s* "What about these?"
Rebel Alliance: "Also *Yes*"
What about Nebulon Bs
Rebel Alliance: *yes*
What about every common ship:
Rebel Alliance: *yes*
What about TIEs?
Rebels: no
GR 75 sucks
Cause Alderaan’s Princess Leia keeps “losing” them.
She's from one of those small towns where you could leave your car unlocked and your keys in the ignition without worrying.
Sorry officer, I lost those spaceships in a boating accident
@matthew ____
I, too, can fit multiple spaceships in my tiny 10-foot boat.
yes, xD
They keep ending up in Alderaan places
I kind of thought the reason why they have so many Corvettes because there were so so easy to find and take
And culturally, Corellia is sympathetic to the Rebellion.
For their size, CR 90's are fast and powerful. But most importantly, endlessly modifiable
CR-90s sound like the Honda Accords of Star Wars
More like a space Toyota Hilux.
@@GAJake you said it yourself. In the southern states... not in southern California! Lol
Toyota Hilux. Just like many rebels and terrorist groups all over the globe
I would've said Ford Focus.
sounds more like a wrangler to me since it’s easy to modify
Mon Motha: "Ackbar how many corvettes do we need?"
Ackbar: "Yes".
"Holy crackin' hell's oceans, YES."
Mon Motha to clone wars veterans:How many ATTEs do we need?
Veterans:More than the imperial fleet has Star destroyers
Mon Motha:NVM let’s us a speeder bike
I even used to think that the CR-70 the blue corvette in Battlefront 2 (2005) were the same ship as the CR-90, but later I realized they’re the different model of ship.
Even when I got both the blue & red corvette in titanium series, I thought they were the same.
canonically corellian engineering corp made an upgrade kit to make the cr70 on par with the cr90, so a ship could start life as a cr70 and later be classed as a cr90 on the books, or someone could "downgrade" enough of a cr90 to appear to be the lesser cr70 on scans.
They are the same ship. Or they were supposed to be. They screwed up the CG model in Revenge of the Sith, though, and then retconned it to being a different ship later.
@@arashimiyazawa8165 Wasn't really a mistake. It was meant to be the Tantive IV in Revenge of the Sith, before being retconned to the Sundered Heart or Tantive III.
I’ve noticed that the new republic cr-90s that will appear in Star Wars squadrons have 6 laser cannons instead of 4.
They realized that five of them can instantly cripple an ISD after playing Empire at War.
Never tried that.
And then "All power to the engine" when the missile cruisers appeared.
While they definitely made their mark within the rebel alliance, weren’t the CR90s also used frequently in the empire as well? In the X-Wing games you fight plenty in small task forces, and I believe they are also mentioned in the books. Regardless, they were basically everywhere. Couldn’t swing a dead bantha without hitting five of them.
That was my impression as well. They were kinda the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla of the Galaxy.
If I was still a kid during the 90s, I would think it's funny that you still play Mario Kart 64 23 years later. It's like still playing Space Invaders in the 90s.
I still periodically play space invaders today.
Newer versions of Mario Kart keep getting released every few years, Space Invaders didn't get milked as hard
Both classics in their own right anyways
Mario Kart 64 is has pretty solid mechanics in my opinion, and is fairly simple without too many gimmicks. Also I like the survival type Battle mode in it, and prefer it to newer Mario Kart battle modes.
It's basically like how in every "getaway driver" movie the driver asks for a slightly older model Toyota in a plain color, they blend in and get the job done.
And it's easily modified for unexpected power
In the certain point of view novel for ANH Captain Antilles mentions that there are hundreds across the galaxy and the empire might have a hard time tracking Leia's ship.
Next your guna say
"VADER IS LUKES FATHER! OMFG!?!"
I like the look of the CR-90. I just finished Thrawn by Timothy Zahn, and I'm a bit disappointed we don't get more tactical battles in Star Wars. I enjoyed how a Star Destroyer had to protect it's escort frigates or risk being swarmed by smaller ships
And the Nightcaller was dooooppppeee I love it. I made a mission in X-Wing vs TIE Fighter basically pitting you against them.
When you’re so early you can’t even scroll through the comments 😭☹️
To become an anti-starfighter ship. The Empire didn't have that come to mind.
Tartin class
@@kevray Yes I know. But it doesn't have a hyperdrive.
@@michaelandreipalon359 Who knows? Maybe his TIE was modified.
They had the Raider class but never used it
@@barronholmes7337 Yes I know. The Corvus is the only one we know.
Basically:
1: If you can't have a minigun (Star Destroyer)
Then
Settle for the most efficient, next cheapest thing (CR-90)
The rebel Blockade Runner cr90 has been my absolute favorite ship in all of Syfy since I was a very small child. And I always said just like you did. That if I lived in the Starwars universe I would either want a retrofitted consular class charger Corvette only until I can afford to acquire and upgrade to its maximum offensive and defensive potential ACR 90. Although I'll be honest the assassin class Corvette CR 95a that's a pretty sick ship too.
Love ya vids Eck, I've learned a lot about Star Wars and Halo from watching your vids and I've come to love both franchises even more.
Thank you, keep it up.
Like my uncle would always say, the vette gets them wet.
I feel like he meant the other corvette but i also don’t know your uncle I could be wrong.
Animal Doctors??
Oh… Dyslexic War veterans, my bad.
*Mon Calamari has entered the chat*
Jesus this chat had me Off for a second.
And why didn’t they upgrade to the CR-92a Assassin-Class Corvette?
to answer your question then denotation of the class and its more military-minded focus and reputation would have made it stand out like a sore thumb
so while they did use some of them they were not as ubiquitous among the rebel fleet
@@jakeordentlich4977 Basically yeah, not very sneaky for a rebellion that's mostly underground. At that point you may as well just get something heavier. Though 92a's and DP-20s are not entirely unheard of in civilian hands in some areas. With enough bribes at least.
@CT-2307 you mean built in large numbers, right?
Silent Drew what difference would it make? ;-; grammar nazi
My small rebel fleet.
4 CR-90s with hangars and mostly anti fighter weapons.
2 Arquitances with standard load out and fighters
1 Munificent with a droid crew with some organics with more shields and speed boosters.
Out of universe reason is about the same: it's just such a good ship for pretty much any situation, so it ended up literally everywhere
Also I'd probably take a CR90, but with that big hangar on the side
I’ve always liked the Venator design so if I were a smuggler I’d run one of those. Kinda like Booster Terrik’s Errant Venture but on a smaller scale. If I were a pirate (and assuming I could get my hands on one), I would use an Interdictor-Class Star Destroyer.
#AskEck
Why didn't the empire continue using Y-wings after the clone wars? They are better than the tie bomber to begin with, but with upgraded shielding and firepower to match the era I feel like an impirial Y-wing would be a seriously deadly ship
Didn’t need to bomb things as heavily anymore? Or just manufacturing efficiencies of going TIE line throughout.
The Empire was all about mass production at the lowest cost. Tie Bombers cost less to produce and maintain than y wings. Also cut down on pilot cost as the unworthy didn't last long.
@@acehigh79 To be fair the worthy did not exactly last that much longer either
@@scorpixel1866 that is the point. The Empire only wanted the best of the best. If you could survive multiple missions in one of these death traps you were worthy.
The Star Destroyer Hangars were Optimized for Tie Designs. Racks allow for Smaller Hangars but don't work with all Starcraft. Smaller Hangars means more space available for other systems.
#askEck. Why didn’t bombers just bomb the bridges? Keep up the great content. 👍🏻
Ez shield
They did lol..
Recall the cat and mouse episode, Anakin fired proton torpedoes toward Admiral Trench's bridge, only to be deflected by thermal shields.
cause they still have to hit the other 4 hard points to get enough points to win
You just got to kamikaze the bridge.
They were probably many that were made before the Rise of the Galactic Empire, and the Rebel Alliance probably used these Blockade Runners as a common corvettes because they were everywhere. The Rebellion used several corvettes to send several of these Blockade Runners to send strike teams like Twilight Company own CR 90 during the Mid Rim Assault during the Galactic Civil War.
Just looked it up, Twilight Company did use a CR-90. "Thunderstrike"
I need to go back to that after I finish the second new Thrawn book
@@michaelandreipalon359 Catalyst was good
@@michaelandreipalon359 Aftermath trilogy is really good actually, as is Phasma. I wasn't a fan of the sequels but that book was really interesting.
I was playing EAW recently sparked by your recommendation to go replay it. As the empire I was in late game to destroy planets with the death star. Anyway I wanted to destroy the rebel space station and eliminate all the rebels before I destroyed their planet for cinematic purposes. Little did I know they would keep spawning until I destroyed the planet. Suffice it to say i won the battle after killing 59 of the CR-90s
this is one of if not my favorite ship design from the sw universe, its sleek, beautiful and functional
Glad you mentioned Night Caller from Wraith Squadron. It was a nicely modified corvette.
Damn I can't believe we have to wait until 1977 to watch Rogue One's sequel.
Damn, I heard they plan on expanding upon it, making a whole series.
@@kinorris1709 Typical Hollywood, milking something successful until it's a dessicated husk. We don't NEED a sequel, but that won't stop them when money's involved. It'll probably have needlessly gratuitous cameos too, like having that scary man in the black suit show up again.
I would like to imagine that the CR-90 was so common that large capital ships like the ISD and MC-75 where specifically designed to fit the corvettes in their docking bays.
It was. The Devastator embarked the Tantive IV in during a New Hope. Looks like the bay is specifically long and wide enough to secure CR90s along with the docking assembly design to physically clamp it down.
pick from wiki/movie:
vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/f/f5/TantiveIVcapture-hd.png/revision/latest?cb=20130225073704
@@mattheww.6232 That's what i assumed. It's just too perfect a fit for it not to be custom built for CR-90s. There's a similar ventral bay on the MC-75s that's just the right size as well.
@@SciFiDeepDive The general 120-150 meter range is also popular for other ships (Probably because they were intended to compete with the CR90)
@@DIEGhostfish That makes sense. I think we saw a Consular-Class Cruiser in the ventral bay of a Venator in the Clone Wars. It would've been cool to see a Gozanti in there or something at some point.
@@SciFiDeepDive I thought I saw Gozantis in a hangar in the trailer for the new starfighter game. But may be wrong.
This came back to reminds me of the "Space Shimakaze" purposes I had a bit while back. Essentially I would imagine due to its extreme modularity the CR90 can be easily transformed into a fast and manoeuvrable proton torpedo launcher. Given the size of the cargo bay and those two massive turbolasers, one could even fit firepower equivalent to a Y-wing squadron in there. And in practice, This heavy torpedo armed Corvette can either have a squadron of X-wings distract the Tie-fighters while accurately jumps right on top of a Victory and such and just cause excessive damage to the ship, then quickly jumps into hyperspace, or to pretend to be a civilian ship until it got up close. This tactic I think will work well with the alliance's hit and run tactic, and even in fleet battles, multiple such corvettes accompanied by escort could deal serious damage to any capital ship.
Alternatively, you can just load it with fighters and Loran Spitball with it.
There were special-purpose ships that could do this. Dornean Gunship and DP20 had so much turbolasers and torpedo launchers for the ships of their size that they could reliably cripple larger capital ships with only a couple of strafing runs,just like ww2-era destroyers would have done.
The rebel corvettes wether hammerhead or cr90s are some of my favorite shops in Star Wars
A very extremely great video as always EckhartsLadder.
I used to play on a Star Wars mod Freelancer server, and I decided to play an independent pirate. I never took the biggest or toughest ship, I always took the _fastest_ ship I could afford. As long as you can outrun someone, you never have to fight them. Hit easy targets and flee with whatever you can grab is the winning strategy.
It was a mass produced older ship on the civilian market that could fit more guns and was fast, which made it good for hit and run raids and due to its age they were everywhere and easy to acquire.
Not to mention how fast it is. Given the name blockade runner, it could easily do hit and runs
Hang on, civilian Independent Freighters could be armed CR-90's?
Forget my daydreams of modifying a YT series, I'm going to imagine some way of sticking guns on one to cover the rear arc.
I was thinking of fixed Gatling guns stuck between the engines. They wouldn’t really aim, they would just put enough fire going backwards to discourage any trailing fighters
So it's pretty much the Toyota Hilux of star wars
Such wholesome Star Wars content
Love the callout for The Nightcaller.
Great vid Eckhart! The CR-90s are very interesting.
For me a modified GX-1 Short Hauler will always be my go to Hero Ship. It was also very common around the galaxy and I just think it looks cool. Besides, it's smaller and easier to handle.
Happy Canada Day, Eck--May the Force be with you, too!!!
Spent a. 6 hour drive yesterday binging your videos audio, new video to top it off
Reminds me of one of my favorite cutscenes from the old X-Wing PC game, where the Rebs launch a specially modified CR-90 to plow through the bridge towers of several Star Destroyers that were docked in a line.
A classic case of stealth by hiding in the crowd.
For me personally, if I were a pirate, I'd like to ride around in a Raider-class corvette the one you see in Battlefront II, It essentially runs like a CR90 and could have played a big part if the empire actually used them. I just the like the design of it I suppose plus imagine having access into imperial places with a ship like that at your disposal, but that's me.
I totally agree with you I love the look of that ship and it's fast too and has pop up weapons one of my favorite features
I'm just wondering if the vessel has the same capacity to be modified as much as a CR-90. For instance to hold a squadron of TIES or modified with heavier weapons that sort if thing.
I completely agree with u. The raider class corvette looks much cooler, not so pieced together. I gotta say I like the corvette more, after Inferno squad joined the rebels. The brige looks more integrated into the ship in the rebel raider class. But i can understand when people say the original imperial corvette looks cooler. And these corvettes are larger than u think. Like 150 m if u think of that thats huge. But its really overshadowed by stardestroyers and especially dreadnoughts where u loose the sense of size
I think the FarStar "escort carrier" modification would have been more common and would have had hangars on both sides of the ships, making it hold at least 8 snubfighters (if not 10 if you place one in an "Alert" position on each flight deck).
what a nice video! thanks eck!
I would love to see what a Starfleet Engineer would do with this ship.
Adds a whole bunch of equipment, including multiple entire decks, and boosts up its shields.
Writes in the paperwork as "Minor Refit"
@@BoisegangGaming this guy gets it. Junkball fan?
@@Ironfrenzy217 i've watched a few of his catalog
Keep your dirty trekkie mitts off my cr 90!

If only we could have a star citizen equivalent in Star Wars... I would totally get a Cr90 too
THIS is what Disney should focus on doing. Not butchering the franchise
This is so relevant to me right now... I chose this ship to be the setting for my discord star wars rp! Great vid.
'Night Caller' shoutout!! Love it!
Ahh, the CR-90. The Honda of Star Wars.
my ship of choice would be a laat tank carrier with an at-te. i love the at-te used by rex and the boys in rebels + the extra mobility with the carrier
Glad to hear I'm not the only person who loves the Night Caller.
The party I used to run SW d20/Saga edition for had a Wayfarer medium transport. It was basically a CEC space Semi trailer. They were working for the Legends New Republic shortly before the Vong War. They eventually convinced CEC to modify the design, basically stacking 2 drive sections together, welding them onto the front of a cargo pod, and putting a hardpoint for detachable pods on either side, they called it the Sojourner.
The party [if anyone is interested] was:
-Wiley T. Ewok: the group's pilot, he was an escaped test subject from Warlord Zsinj's labs [the one that made Piggy and Gara Petothels co-pilot]
-Dac Mason: Corellian Jensaarai on a mission to investigate the post-Empire galaxy
-Arctan Voss: Iktochi Tech [the "designer" of the Sojourner refit]
-Bernhard Arnhel: Human Dark Side Marauder that Dac took as an apprentice after Goku-ing him [he was a random encounter that the party spared and took as a pet]
Great video as always. I hope you have fun with the beeriokart but I dont think I will watch that because I really don't like drinking that much. I found this video really fun to watch and listen to.
I love that Corvette they had in the Wraith Squadron books, too!
God bless you for the 6d only West End Games reference. Most dont know of this awesome RPG
In one of my peculiar Empire at War games I was down an entire fleet and only my single CR-90 was left to fight an Imperial Star Destroyer. Through exceptional dodging skills, ample use of turbo boost, and a lot of flanking... this single CR-90 defeated an ISD and a Victory single handedly and saved a Rebel space station. Unfortunately the captain of the CR-90 perished soon after as such antics from said ship were not witnessed again and the ship soon destroyed in a future battle. (IE I got too burnt out whittling down an ISD with a single CR90)
“May-ero kart” 😂
The last bit about taking the guns off and keeping it in use reminds me of that scene in Lord of War when they were about to get busted by Interpol and took the rocket pods off the attack helicopter and plead ignorance about what happened next.
First off... love the channel. The content. The execution. Nicely done. After watching this video I suddenly had a thought that also asks the question "Why so many?" My question? Why are there so many GR-75 transports in rebel fleets during combat. The battle of Endor. The battle of Scarrif? Who would want to go into battle on an unarmed transport? Any ideas? I have only one answer myself. A death wish.
#askeck which type of deflector shielding is a more effective form of protection: a bubble-like field that’s constantly active or when the hull is struck, sensors in the armor trigger nearby generators that trigger a transient energy field localized in the area?
Video suggestion/request:
X-83 Twintail vs. Tie Defender (Legends)
The scene in rogue one. Where the admiral calls up a Corvette to ram the star destroyer into the shield grid.... THAT needs to be part of their marketing campaign!
I’m not one to make comments this will be among my first. I must say thank you for introducing me to the EU of the star wars universe i have picked up the thrawn trilogy due to your recommendation but now knowing how often you refer to them also helps me enjoy your content so again thank you and I can’t wait for more of these in the future
7:20 Ah, the Patrick Doctrine:
"We should take the guns off the CR-90, and push them somewhere else."
Hide the weapons in the cargo hold, slip past Imperial lines, and then stick them back on.
The CR-90 is like Star Wars's equivalent to the Corvette Class Frigate from the Expanse. Light, fast, yet modular and very, very reliable.
I've always loved the DP20, very similar but built more for combat
If I was a pirate I would have my capitol shop be a cis recusant class destroyer, with several stolen cr90 corvettes, a victory ii, a nebulon b and C, and I would have a quasar class, probably filled with droid bombers, stolen tie fighters, and t17 torrents. My personal fighter would be a geonosian starfighter.
The way I would get ships is by sitting on hyperspace lanes and boarding suspecting new rebulic scum.
Rebel doctrine pertaining to the CR90 reminds me of early American naval doctrine. Where merchant vessels would be outfitted with cannons and after the war, returned to their regular tasks. Not to mention the use of gunboats which were favored by Congress as they were inexpensive, quicker to produce, and could run heavily armed (relative to the size of the ship).
In the West End Games book Stock Ships ( 1997 ) there is a CEC ship called the XS-800 that is essentially a light freighter version of the CR-90.
Wayfarer-class freighter. Collect all the unique pods, design some Lando-esque schemes with it.
I never understood why they never put another set of cannons on the sides of the forward cockpit. Doing so would give you 4 forward-facing weapon emplacements each with 2 barrels each with all of them having a clear field of fire firing that would not interfere with any of the others
One of my favorite ships am not surprised since it was in my opinion one of the first ships used by early rebel cells
They rock . Can support light or heavy support . Good sheilds . Can do well against ties or capital .
I like the video outro of playing the music on the dogs head. Could you make a one or two minute version? :-)
CR90 Corvette is Star Wars' Toyota technicals.
Because Alderaan’s higher ups decided “hey this is a good ship for our senators” and guess who helped create the Rebel Alliance
I've got a few ideas for Uglies that I would choose for my ship.
Rebel Alliance doctrine: Is it a space ship? Yes. Good enough for us then...
I would imagine that the empire would have used Corrilian designs as patrol ships and anti-pirate for worlds near to Corellia and possibly further abroad. Not for the mainline navy, but for smaller scale tasks that needed to protect less important worlds and of the sort that might occasionally be drafted into protecting ISD's during local missions. Sort of like other patrol ships like the Tartan-class, Arquitens-class , and Gozanti-class. I would imagine that locally produced ships of all kinds were in use to save lugging replacments and other supplies across the galaxy when a locally designed patroler might be just as sufficient for sub-star destroyer tasks.
I imagine it was like a dealership sale like "buy one Corvettes and get five for free!"
Ah the CR-90, the AR-15 of the Star Wars universe...
CEC building the most reliable and easily customizable space frames across the galaxy. No, we don't ask our customer intend to do with them once off the lot. However we do provide technical support and have a consultation service for those needing help with suggestions for their line of work.
Before Mon Mothma became the top rebel leader, Correllian Senator Garm Bel Iblis brought a lot of them into the rebel alliance fleet. Around Empire Strikes Back, Bel Iblis had gone solo and separated from the main rebel fleet but still doing guerilla attacks against the Empire.
Because rebels didn’t realize that there was an amazing cruiser capable of fighting fighters and being heavily armored and armed.
This was made by Dreadnaught cruiser gang.
The CR 90 is one of my favorite ship designs.
"CR-90s, the Ford E-150s of Star Wars"
My ship would be a raider class corvette it’s a similar size with somewhat less weaponry but it has hanger space for 4 ties and if your a rebel and add racks of a sort you could fit at least 6 a wings maybe 8 or maybe 2 x wings and 4 a wings. I think that the fact that it comes with a hanger and some decent firepower makes it great right out of production but imagine what you could do if you modified it I feel that if you did it right you could double it’s default firepower because of that I like it more that the CR-90
I love this doggo outro... what's this channel about?
