Not legends. That is Star Wars lore.

If only Fractalsponge could create such a ship for us to see, now THAT would be an awesome thing to see!
How about we (as a fandom) ask/petition him to do it? Who is with me?
Once again, it's an absolute privilege to have been featured, thank you Eck! And to everyone watching, I hope you all enjoy the video and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas should you celebrate it!
Thanks for all the information about this ship. I have played swtor and seen the ship but never new it's importance to the galaxy
@@Tyberzen You can find it on Hoth!
@@100StarWars thanks
I have never heard of this ship until now. Thanks again for another great video!
Well done
"Let's build a super massive battleship insted of a bunch of smaller ships"
No one ever regretted this tipe of thinking
Japan and Germany certainly didn’t...
Or even better you could build a ton of large and small ships from the resources of a single star system
@@petercaballero4880 insted of building a super dreadnought maybe they should have built 2 or 3 normal dreadnoughts that way the whole project couldn't be as easely destroyed in a single battle
@@petercaballero4880 That's a fan creation. It's not canon.
**Cough** Death Star **Cough**
Oh my, excuse me.
I love the old republic, expecially the ships, I feel like not many people talk about it, so thanks to both of you. Merry Christmas eve Eck.
They aren't many ships, unfortunately. SWTOR seem to implies both factions operate only two type of capital ships, and use them for literally everything.
@@PaiSAMSEN their militaries weren’t the only things ever in existence mate. The Ebon Hawk, for example.
These ships give me life. I want to build one!
@@PaiSAMSEN The Hammerhead-class is still in use. The fundamental issue is they won't make new starship assets, or at least the ones they have made aren't worth a shit (like the Spirit of Vengeance II and that freighter Satele is on in the newest release).
Seconded. Swtor is one of my favorite games of all time, and my favorite character is malgus. Glad to see someone with similar tastes!
Last time I was this early the old republic hadn't fallen
Oof level: Order 66
Blind we are, if decoration of Christmas tree we could not see
Decorate it we must
@@davindestroyer While 2 pounds of ketamine, we snort.
Like with the Eternal Fleet and the Gravestone, it’s sad that we never get to see this kind of tech in Star Wars again.
Think we will get to see the Eternal Fleet on screen?
Did they just reverse the story of the Bismark to make it a defeat for the good guys? Goddamn, this is why I love Legends!
More or less yes. But then again, the tale of the bismark is a classic story template of why having a super dreadnought while its a good idea in paper is more or less a huge target without support equal to its size.
@@BeyondDaX The Malevolence of the Clone Wars Era was the other Bismark of the Star Wars Universe.
@@BeyondDaX Well it was more that it was impractical for the Kriegsmarine to vie with the Royal Navy in terms of their entire surface fleet. The Royal Navy had many more destroyers covering and defending the approaches to the span of coastline by the Thames Estuary alone, than the Germans had destroyers in total. It was not just a matter of battleships, in essentially all regards in the surface fleet, the British were well-ahead of the Germans. Bismarck was essentially a vanity project and PR stunt by the Third Reich, to try and threaten the Royal Navy in it's home waters and send a message to Britain but perhaps even more so France (France, having been the most eager to punish Germany in the Treaty of Versailles 1919) that Germany was 'back' in naval terms.
However, Bismarck was never going to be anywhere near as impactful as a commerce raider as say, many of the U-boats were. It was an older mentality of big gun brawlers in a world shifting to air power and increasingly effective submarine technology. The general point you mention is broadly fair, though Bismarck is sometimes fabled as some leviathan compared to everything else. Let's not forget that HMS _Hood_ while being from 1918, with some mid-life modifications, was a very large example of a British _Battlecruiser_ however for it's type and kind, the 'Pride of the Royal Navy' (as it was 1918 to 1941, arguably) was to almost everyone else, a battleship by sheer scale and firepower. In it's bauplan, design, and form, she was of course a battlecruiser, yet one taking the lessons of Jutland 1916 and improving on older classes. She was the largest warship on the planet - bigger than literal dreadnought battleships around her - for two decades.
Bismarck was designed with the latest British, French, American and Japanese dreadnought battleships in mind, to be bigger and nastier by specification. Though we must not forget, that HMS _Hood_ while herself technically not even a true battleship, was a) bigger than all battleships (until Bismarck), b) armed with 15 inch guns (as was Bismarck) and then still c) longer than Bismarck. Bismarck was much younger, newer and reflected the vanity of the Nazi regime as well as it's intention to go for the prestige victory. It was essentially them saying, 'anything you can do we can do better', forgetting that the Royal Navy was still the by far greatest navy on the planet in 1940. Without a shadow of a doubt, the German battleship was deadly, well-armed and smartly designed in most respects, with newer range finders and targetting gear than HMS _Hood_ from a previous generation.
Nevertheless, it wasn't so much that the Germans had built a ship wildly superior to anything the British had. It was physically bigger and generally faster than a lot of the British standards (i.e. British standard Battleships, deliberately made by the British to be numerous enough for their Imperial duties though large enough to still be impressive under Treaty Limitations, right up to the limits of 36,000 tonnes in some cases) Bismarck should not have even existed at all according to the antiquated Treaty of Versailles, and it's harsher edicts, though in fairness, the British were not the ones leading the charge in that regard but the French who fully wished to exact revenge on Germany for what damage it had done to France (1.75 million French people died in WWI and there was inflicted colossal damage on the French countyside, amounting to many billions of pounds of property damage too; entire landscapes were wrecked)
Massively reflective of the times, Bismarck stood as a symbolic of *defiance to the Western allies* and was not necessarily as practical _for German_ requirements, as opposed to generally what would be possible for the British, Americans or for that matter, that Japanese. France and Italy were more constrained with their allowance of tonnage from the London and Washington Naval Conferences and Treaties, 1922 through to 1930, yet even they were in a better starting position to build battleships. Bismarck wasn't massively larger than some of the biggest French and Italian battleships, e.g. Strasbourg and Dunkerqué, though granted, they were generally inferior to the overall fire accuracy and gunnery quality of the Germans. Some of the finest sailors and officers in the entire Kriegsmarine were lost on the Bismarck. He (the Germans deliberately regarded Bismarck as a male ship, not the traditional female most others were - for reasons of blatant bravado) was given priority of the best sailors in the German surface fleet. His gunnery was brisk, accurate and the ship was overall a worthy adversary to any allied ship in it's type (BB/Battleship)
Nevertheless, always remember that the British Ministry of War (later, Defence) was keen on slaying a dragon for PR value so to speak, and although Bismarck genuinely presented a credible and ominous threat to allied merchant ships either alone or escorted (practically no destroyers or cruisers could go against Bismarck alone, though they could track and shadow him) in convoys, the fact of the matter was, that Churchill made Bismarck into a lightning rod for British propaganda (just as he later did with it's sister ship, Tirpitz, slightly bigger and better made than Bismarck, though even less useful in the end, mainly loitering around fortified AA gun infested Fjords dodging RAF bombers and RN midget submarines trying and eventually succeeding to damage/destroy her)
The anxiety Churchill had over Tirpitz, was inordinate to it's real tactical or strategic value; constantly allotting far greater than necessary resources and manpower to having the ship marked in case it made a run to intefere with the British efforts in the Arctic Convoys aiding Soviet Russia with immense sacrifice; this, being part of the only thing that kept Churchill awake at night with worry - the idea of Britain and her allies being starved out of the war due to losing control of sea lanes. The U-boat menace in the Atlantic was the primary concern of Churchill, and the British led the allies to defeating that threat via technological innovation and new strategies. Millions of tonnes of shipping were lost, and 35,000 British Merchant Navy/Merchant Marine crewmen were lost. Thousands of Royal Navy personnel, perished too, in the struggle.
Besides perhaps the ongoing fighting in Manchuria between the Chinese and Japanese (going on since before the Germans invaded Poland), the Battle for the Atlantic was the longest running campaign of WWII. The British won as the dominant power there just as the Americans won as the dominant power in the Pacific. The final 45 U-boats of any operational value were recklessly thrown at the massive allied Armada on D-Day; largely annihilated in the English Channel by effectively well-honed tactics and technology developed over the years to deal with them. Some losses were incurred but the U-boats were largely a bit of a joke by then, defeated. Earlier in the war, the British had obliterated the German destroyer fleet/most of them at the Second Battle of Narvik.
Bismarck and Tirpitz were large battleships, but Germany could not make many of them and the British weren't incapable of building something bigger had it not been for the naval treaties which the Germans and Japanese simply violated and ignored. The British were faithful to the treaties, though HMS _Hood_ was older than the treaties, and too well-loved to simply scrap or downsize. She was the only ship in class of the _Admiral_-class Battlecruiser. I would regard her as Super Battlecruiser. A giant among the battlecruisers; but still a battlecruiser at heart.
The point I was making earlier about HMS _Hood_ being 'as good as a battleship to most eyes' in the interwar years, is true; only a handful of nations on the planet could even order let alone build and properly use Battleships, and Britain cancelled 3 of the sister ships of HMS _Hood_ leaving her as a peculiar and unique ship indeed. Bismarck was the new Rottweiler or Doberman on the block; Hood was the venerable old champion Greyhound. A sleek ambassador of all things British Imperial, touring the Empire in the 1920's to promote Britain with HMS _Renown_ a sleek cruiser. Hood was incredibly beautiful. Of course, the narrative is that Bismarck was her nemesis, and yes, he ultimately was - but Denmark Straits was not a forgone conclusion. Bismarck got very lucky with her shot, and it was more Admiralty penny pinching skipping a refit of the aft deck armour, that doomed Hood. From 1418 men on HMS _Hood_ that day, 3 survived the blast. She sank in 4 minutes and took nearly her entire crew with her; including Vice-Admiral Holland.
Bismarck killed her before she could complete her turn into Bismarck's firing arcs (Holland was doing everything right, reducing the profile of his own ship by turning into the fire not allowing his ship to be raked side on broadsides - and it was the doctrine taught to all navies at the time whom had battleships) They were just incredibly unlucky. Hood's rudder was later found turned to port, showing the claim Holland was making the correct turn, was absolutely true. A frozen moment in time, recorded forever. The majority of the crew would have been incinerated and blasted to pieces as the explosion as blast doors failed as the blast was stronger than they were ever meant to stop.
ThePalaeontologist you know you could've just linked the Wikipedia article as well?
@@sirshotty7689 Merry Christmas to you too lol no but really, I wrote all of that myself and I tend to type long form so it's not that bad I type fairly quickly. Took me about half an hour, not too shabby. Anyway, try linking to wikipedia at uni and see what happens lol the ability to interpret and discuss history isn't reliant on wikipedia articles. And to be fair, I wasn't saying that Bismarck even deserved it's reputation - the British themselves were probably responsible for whipping the hype over Bismarck up to insane levels (which of course, the Germans were not complaining about) Merry Christmas.
Dude I'm literally binge watching old republic stuff and then I see this just uploaded
I remember seeing the Star of Coruscant on Hoth, in swtor. I thought it looked like a really impressive ship, specifically since it was created by the Republic. A superdreadnought seems like something the Sith Empire would create.
I love this game, I wish we could've seen the Star of Coruscant in its full glory.
If only the Gnost Dural journals were realised
Always good to see Old Republic lore. By far my favorite era of SW. I’d love to see more TOR lore showcases.
Happy Christmas Eve Eck!
The Imperial-I and II class look like a design downgrade compared to the Harrower class
Ya for real looks so sick I actually wouldn’t mind if Disney decided to recycle and bring it back some how
@Lane Hollis it could be a mission to board a destroyed harrower in high republic game.
Also the harrower is a nice looking ship
@Lane Hollis by military standards of the sequel trilogy the Harrower is slightly larger than a frigate.
The Harrower-class is smaller, less well armed and armored than an Imperial-I or even the earlier Venators.
I remember playing the Agent class in swtor and going to the wreck of the star of coruscant with an old imperial scientist. He told me he was watching the battle of Hoth from a command room and talked about how everyone in the room cheered when it was shot down.
I'd really like to see The Old Republic explored more in animation or film. I remember the first time I saw the 'trailer' or whatever it was for KOTR, and being so ecstatic to play the game and learn more about it but being disappointed at the time because of the disparity between the trailer and the gameplay. I want to relive the excitement for the beauty and mystique of that era of Star Wars, and I definitely think films or shows would do it justice.
Man it would be awesome if we could see the ships found like this in the empire strikes back!!!
EckhartsLadder videos are unparalleled in providing high quality, informative videos on Star Wars naval lore. 100% Star Wars is unchallenged in creating fantastically interesting Old Republic lore videos. I’m an ex-U.S. Army intel analyst and a huge SWTOR lore enthusiast, and I enjoy the content you two collaborate on. Here are a few Old Republic topics I think you two could make some cool videos on:
naval leadership profiles (Republic and Imperial)
shipyards
Imperial naval forces, Battle of Corellia (c. ATC 13)
Battle of Corellia (Third Galactic War)
Perlemian Trade Route tactical analysis
naval order of battle (Republic and Imperial)
Dude, I love 100% Star Wars. I've been a big fan since the last feature on this channel. It's so cool that Eck and 100% collab like this. Everybody wins, especially the fans. How do a couple UA-cam channels make so many fans happy and the biggest studio on earth can't figure it out?
Always loved this story arc. Always been fascinated with ship graveyards in general as they're gold mine for telling great lore. That and I hope a day comes where we get proper art of the Star of Coruscant so we get a better idea just how deadly it was.
Also, Merry Christmas, Eck! Hope the wee one and the Mrs are doing well.
Wow. Absolutely adored the visuals for this video, stunning.
Now that is a name for a Super-Dreadnought!
been watching you for a long ass time and I bet that announcment of all this future content made all you guys super happy. allll the content haha I am so excited.
have a great holiday!
Watching this video reminded me of the old Homeworld cutscenes, really well put together
Lovely vid! Super enlightening! Also his voice is very soothing
Thanks for the informative vid as always. My favorite SW lore channel.
Very cool video I know so little about the Old Republic this was awesome.
Thats it, im subscribing to your channel. Thanks Ecks for showing us this awesome lad :)
Great stuff and I love legends, so 100% subbed 🤙
Last time I was this early, Eck was still a padawan in law school.
Also Thanks for all the awesome content, my fellow Canadian nerd. Merry Christmas, and a very Happy New Year to you, Madame Eck, the Ecklings, and all who see this🎄🎄🎄🎁🎁🎁🎄🎄🎄
Would've been a devastating weapon in the wars between the Rebels and the Imperials.
Gotta love how the captions thinks your name is Zachary Slaughter 😂
Excellent job on the video. This ship has always felt a bit lacking in meaning for me, your video does an amazing job describing the military and political situation surrounding the ship. Well done.
this was an awesome video! will defnitely go over to this guys channel
Happy holidays man
you think the Empire would have learned from this bit of history. The Bigger your vessel, the bigger the bulls eye
I really remember exploring this thing's ruins in SWTOR...
It was awesome, imagine seeing it before it got destroyed.
Where do you explore it? I don’t remember and I played through swtor.
@@brodymci8258 At the end of the Starship Graveyard in Hoth. It's on the far eastern end of that area of map.
@@brodymci8258 Hoth, in the starship graveyards.
@@Arauto_Kagnos wow, guess it’s time to do another play through.
Merry Christmas Eckhart!!! Merry Christmas 100% ST!!!! Great video, just taught me something i didnt even know the Republic had, hopefully when we reach the distant planets in our Galaxy we find a massive dreadnaught ship frozen in the ice like this one.
Merry Christmas to you too!
Hmm, interesting video. I think I'm going to subscribe.
Also, MERRY CHRISTMAS GUYS!
Merry saturnalia, Eck!
Awesome vid i would love to see this in a movie or game in greater detail
i forgot i was watching eckhards channel and was confused when he said "thanks to eckhardsladder"
Merry Christmas Eve Eck
That was a great story just earned a sub
Merry Christmas Eve eck
It's kind of ironic they're talking about an Old Republic dreadnought with an Imperial Remnant star destroyer as the screenshot.
It's because the Journal of Master Gnost Dural recycled art from other Star Wars media sometimes. That image is from concept art for Legacy. The Sluis Van shipyards being destroyed is literally the model for Kuat from Empire at War.
What a crazy coincident I just arrived at the Star of Coruscant on my first ever playthrough of SWTOR while watching this video. Like I was standin in the scenes in your video 1:1 by pure chance... as if UA-cam Autoplay would know what games I play...
I wish there was *good* concept art of the Star of Coruscant and the other ships talked about in the Battle of Hoth. We have a painting of the same type of ship the "Dauntless Star" belonged to thanks to the book "Annihilation" which shows the Battle of Duro on the back, and the Conraddas Vindicator's concept art is similar in paint scheme and shape to them as well (although it could just be a shot-down Valor-class or something). Unfortunately until then, they basically just remain formless gray husks on the Hoth map.
I need to talk to Charles Boyd about somehow getting more concept artwork or something of these ships out to the public.
Always so nice to see some SWTOR content
I've been hoping you'd do more SWTOR lore.
The Star of Coruscant is tecnically the ""Canon"" version of the Pride of the Core
Not at all
SWTOR isn't canon. So none of the stories related to it are canon either.
@@cgi2002 I meant ""Canon"" by Legends standarts
@@felps_4500 fair, but then in that case the Pride of the Core is that ship still.
The events of the canon clone wars and EU clone wars aren't mutually exclusive, canon stuff can be EU, EU stuff can't be canon tho unless specifically given that status.
The Star of Coruscant's is basically what happens when you design a map, go "we got a big crashed ship on it" and then need to justify how you got it there. It's bad writing (or good writing for an incompetent ship crew). No warship that hasn't been sabotaged or shot to hell already, should ever hit a planet. You don't want to ever fight in a planetary gravity well, it's bad tactics, and you can't heard a ship into one (unless you have an insane numbers advantage), space is too big, you can go anyway you want.
Subtitles called you Zachary Slaughter and I lawled.
DAAAAAMMMMMMMNNNNNN!!!! Merry Christmas btw 🎄
I love how the captions changed Eckhart's Ladder to Zackery Slaughter.
Huh. I was about to say how a "Super Dreadnought" in the Old Republic Era would make no sense since dreadnoughts of the era like the Harrower-class were around the size of an Imperial Star Destroyer, but after watching the video again I guess the Star of Coruscant was just a failed upbringing of "Modern" dreadnoughts. The spark that would make dreadnoughts commonplace in the universe could've been at this time but the fire was snuffed out before it began, and the fire wouldn't truly start until the Galactic Civil War era. The Star was just a sign of things to come.
Also 100% Star Wars if you get to read this, great job! Especially with the unique background music, count me subscribed!
Ifs deceptive, a dreadnought was about 600m long then, this was 5km.
Should point out however this wasn't even close to been the largest building project ever done by the republic. It's not even 1% of the size of the largest. Any orbital ring makes this thing tiny by comparison, and the republic had built dozens of those.
Appreciate it, Jommy! Hope you have a happy holiday season!
@@100StarWars You too!
(っ' '-))っ🎁
@@cgi2002 That's true, Orbital Shipyards like the one of Kuat are possibly the biggest projects you can ever do, literally. But Satellites and Starships are very different things when it comes to complexity. Whether it's Hyperspace or Sublight propulsion ships require different technologies to truly work.
@@jommyheyman1180 I did the math, the orbital rings around Kuatt would make them pointless. The materials required to build it would basically require them mining all the resources in the system and then some.
The maintenance would need hundreds of millions of technicians working 24/7, with more materials used than building all the ships kuatt ever built would need, a few thousand times over.
Oh and it needs a drive system (no hyperdrive admittedly), the most precisely controlled one ever built. It has to station keep so precisely that even a millimetre of movement could cause disaster as the entire structure is under insane levels of pressure, the forces involved are truely earthshattering. That is why a solid ring around a gravity well that you don't control is a nightmare. A solid sphere would be better as the forces are distributed better. The best solution would be a lose collection of stations with flexible tethers connecting them to each other.
Oh and docking a ship at the station, or a single crash, would have likely destroyed the entire station. The shock passing through it would have been devistating to a rigid structure. Rigid structures are bad ideas, they are really bad at absorbing impacts, this is why military vehicles (tanks especially) don't use single solid hulls, they use plates that can warp and move. The few tanks that were solid forged hulls (early russian models) were mostly terrible.
Awesome legends ship!
Me,browsing youtube,finding this video:
“finally,some good fucking content“
Well....there's a lot of Star Wars Channels. But we were missing a Star Wars Channel with a British Accent. So you fill that niche quite well British Accent Star Wars man.
happy lifeday to you and yours
Happy Life Day

I hope you enjoy yours too Master Kenobi
Merry Christmas to all and may the force be with you.
When are you guys going to go back into the Old republic mmo it was fun watching you guys explore the game
Jesus, Clone Wars had its own version or two of the “Bismarck”, I didn’t know The Old Republic had it too!
Just bought The force unleashed I and II. Im so exited
Where'd the art of those ships in the first 2 seconds of the video come from? I've never seen that art before, it looks cool :o
I'd love to see a super dreadnought in Star Wars again.
Merry Christmas (soon)!
Cool, a new Zachary Slaughter video
now i really want to see a what this think actually looked like, other than a massive wall and building in SWTOR that you can see and visit
Hey, you make an amazing content.
I wonder what will happen if the owner of the dark saber dies peacefully without loosing the sword in the combat to anyone. Can you please answer this question? Thanks beforehand
You know for a city planet to undergo 3000 years of change since the old republic, it still looks the same
Marry Christmas Eve 🎄And god I really just want to know what the hell this ship looked like already😒
You said that they couldn’t salvage/recover the Star because of the White Maw, but the Maw were neutralized, and their (spoiler starts here)
brain damaged, force-sensitive alien meatshield recovered/killed in several class storylines of SWTOR. Did they just give up before that point or did something else prevent them from acting?
The Hoth campaign marks the official dissolution of the Treaty of Coruscant and the resuming of open hostilities between the Republic and Empire, causing all their resources to be tied up elsewhere, such as Belsavis and Corellia.
Moral of the story: no matter how big a ship is in Star Wars, it’ll get destroyed.
@LEGION BRICKS probably the best explanation of Star Wars ships I've ever seen
Not just in Star Wars. Remember the HMS Hood, KMS Bismarck, her sister, KMS Tirpitz and the IJN Yamato and her sisters, IJN Musashi and IJN Shinano. Those were all massive and/or powerful ship in WW2 yet they are all at the bottom of the sea right now. (Except for Tirpitz who was dismantled after capsizing)
The problem with big ships is the big attention they get from the enemy
@@williamcote4208 Or even go back before WW2, the Titanic is now sitting at the bottom of the Atlantic. I'm pretty sure it was the largest passenger ship of its time.
@@raz1684 Yup. Also, I always thought that the Bismarck was bigger then the Hood, as the Bismarck is a BB and the Hood is a BC… turns out I was wrong, the Hood is longer then the Bismarck by 10 to 20 meter.
Just explored it in SWTOR yesterday
How was it disabled in the end does it tell it or it is unknown?
We need a canon series about the old Republic games and books, a canon remake of new republic games for ps5 and the new xbox and of course pc, and new canon books and comics about old Republic
0:31 what are those ships top right that look like hammerhead corvettes
I need a power comparison or vs episode on this thing. Could the Star of coruscant take on clone war capital ships, galactic empire? Could it defeat the executor or Malevolence?
Is there a decent image / picture of this ship? All I can find is the side of it buried in ice.
Good vid! You have to think that on a galactic scale, even such massive projects don't raise too much interest. 'Control' of millions of star systems seems like a laughable idea.
Posting OTHER topic due to newest upload.
Eck (& most of us fans) eventually concluded that the relative rarity of Impstars in the early EU didn't make much sense. However, we later got a Star Destroyer count of 'only' 25k, with a star system count of several million. This would bring the rarity status back and correlates with the Empire always described as spread thin. Good to see the Disneyverse, EU, and fans all beginning to agree.
You can definitely see Thrawn's/the navy's argument for hundreds more small ships & fighters vs a single Death Star.
Did I miss where it say how big the ship was? Or how it compares to more modern ships like the executor?
What game is the video from?
Liked the video enough to pop over and subscribe.
Hello there, Zachary Slaughter. Nice to meet you.
Ah, so even the Republic got the Malevolence treatment.
love old republic lore.
*Stabs disney* NO TOUCHY
Fun fact:
Disney is not the devil,just because they made three bad movies
Does not mean they have ruined the franchise
Rogue one is heavily underrated
Clone wars season 7 was prolly the best
And rebels is a must see for any star wars fan
@@justarandomclonetrooperwit8119 aye, but clone wars season 7 was not written by disney, it was already written but never animated.
ditto for rogue one, and even then rogue one nearly burned if not for heavy early viewing critics forcing disney's hand.
rebels, eh.
Merry Christmas to errbbody!!
Come to think of it, no one create full detail of battle of Hoth yet. I wish someone would make a video of the battle that end the Star of Coruscant.
What's the name of the first song used at 0:55 ? It's always playing in the game and I really want to know what it's called
It's a track from The Old Republic called 'Corsucant, The Capital'
@@100StarWars Thanks!
#askeck how many Super Star Destroyers did the New Republic capture in Legends and is there a list of their names? Plz include both Executor and other classes
Versus request:
Resurgent vs. Starhawk
Tie Striker vs. New Republic V-Wing
World Devastator vs. Vong Worldship
Tie Silencer vs. X-83 Twintail
Tie Silencer vs. Tie Defender (legends version)
What is the length of "Star of Coruscant"?
Where is that footage from, when riding the tauntaun?
SWTOR.
I wish we got to see it onscreen and actually make it just as big as an Imperial era dreadnought. I like how the Essential Guide to Warfare said ship sizes varied greatly over the millenia. Would love to see the giant battleships of Coruscant, Alsakan, and Corellia during the Alsakan conflicts. IMO Star Wars needs far more design, role, and size diversity. Think its just common sense it would be this way, the Empire can't be the only faction to build mile long+ ships over the millenia.
#ShipVersus ideas:
Resurgent battlecruiser vs Starhawk Mark II battlecruiser
MC80a Liberty type vs MC80a Home One type
Arquitens light cruiser vs Carrack light cruiser
We didnt get many good shots of it. Is there better shots of it anywhere?
OH that's where the Starship Graveyard on Hoth came from! It's been a while since I've been on Hoth since its a slog.
*Glory to the Sith Empire!!*
Seasons Greetings, and this question is off the beaten path but how would Empire ships fared against fully active Tho Yor Force could crafts?
So much said about the size of this thing, but... What are his dimensions specifically? 5 km, 10 km, 20 km? Any ideas?
I read somewhere that it was around 5 km
What game is this?
