    The irony about the Tector versus Imperial II argument is that because the Tector takes up fewer unit slots in a fleet, you actually have enough space to throw a Ton-Falk escort carrier in and make up the difference in fighter support. It's more credits expensive and requires two ships instead of one, but I think it's a worth while trade.

      @@kR-qj7rw It's a combination of greater durability and superior fire saturation. The ISD IIs octuples fire slowly and have the "all or nothing" problem where either all the shots from a gun will hit or miss in a group. The Tector doesn't have that problem because it has more guns, all of them fire faster, and it has greater durability to compensate for the lack of ion weapons. It's a tank, meant to draw fire and soak damage while spreading its own firepower around to hit multiple targets and keep them pinned for more direct damage focused ships to finish them off.

    In Legends the Nebula was the cream of the crop. This is a game that balances things out because if it was like in Legends just a small fleet of these ships would be able to wipe out a fleet twice its size. Though in games they need to make thing balanced so one faction isn't too powerful. Though from what I have seen the Nebula would have won at long range fire, rather than close range fire, in game.

    It's unfortunate the ISD I refit model isn't buildable in game. It would be the best of both when it comes to ISD armament, combining the I's ion cannon power with the II's overwhelming octuple turbolasers. The only examples of that we get are two hero units, Tanda Pryl for the EA and Malcor Brashin for the Empire, and both are only available in Era 1.

    I could be wrong, but I’ve only seen the Nebula vs ISD1 fights so far, but the first thing I notice in that in game the Nebula has very weak armor & shields, as well as weapons, compared to it’s listed stats in universe. I mean the whole idea is that it was suppose to be able to, by itself, take on any ship short of a SSD or full fleets, but it seems the mod gutted the specs, likely for game balance issue.
    While this is understandable from a gameplay point of view, I wish the fleet mode you are using, had an option to have ships spec’ed out in universe, so for example you could look at a fleet makeup in a cannon battle and run various “what if” scenarios.

  • @irampagingrhin0399

    None of them are really the MOST powerful. They all have different roles which they play in a fleet. Pitting them 1v1 isn't the best way to show off each ships strengths and weaknesses.

  • @scoman91
    @scoman91 3 роки тому +5

    I've done a lot of tests like this while trying to create my own perfect fleet build. The Imperial I is actually the most powerful of the ISD frames for one-on-one combat because of its ion cannons. The Imperial II is actually the worst. The Tector beats out the Imp II because of its stronger shields and overall greater number of fast firing guns. Against larger numbers of smaller ships, the Tector takes the win, again because of its fast guns, but the ISD I takes last because its ion cannons become overkill against small vessels. The ISD II was middle of the pack this time and only lost out to the Tector because most of its firepower is tied up in the slow firing, burst damage octuple turbolasers. Granted, this was just testing the ships themselves, not their fighter compliments. It isn't a fair fight when fighters are around because the star destroyers keep dedicating some of their main guns to shooting down the fighters, meaning it was impossible to get an accurate shot for shot calculation between the ships.

    The thing with the Nebula that a lot of ppl don’t get is that it’s strengths lie at range. A Nebula (and also the Majestic class cruiser) can land as many shots at long range as an ISD can at medium. In short, one could say that they outrange the ISD. Having the Nebula and ISD start at medium range from each other, it’s obvious that the ISD would most likely come out on top

    • @deadeyecpt.7765

      Right, they are similar to the CIS Munificet frigates and Recusanys destroyers or the Chiss Peltasr SD: they excel at range and get weaker as they close tge distance. 1vs1 like these are useless as they don't consider fleet copositions and tactics at all.

  • @AytonGang

    I've thought for a while the Nebula has been a little bit underpowered for a while now. It dishes out good damage but is itself so flimsy that it really struggles to keep dishing out that damage. Id say they need to up it to a 32 cap cost and then give it a relatively significant buff so it can beat an ISD 1.

    • @zbynekkowalski2202

      If Nebula seems weak to you, you are using it incorrectly. While you can call it a fragile ship, it has great firepower (mostly in hull damaging weapons) and solid range. Best thing you can do as NR is putting it to the second line, behind some tough, ion-heavy ships like Home One type or MC90.

The ISD has almost the same damage output while having basically double the total shield and hull. I just think bring it up to 32 cap and then give it the ability to withstand a little bit of punishment too. Then it could go toe to toe with ISD's which, because after all it was designed to fight ISD 2 and here it comfortably lost to an ISD 1.

      @@AytonGang Well, there's reason why Corey doesn't consider 1v1 as good tests of ship abilities. ISD1 is (at least according to me) the strongest ship in it's class due to it's ion-heavy weaponry which allows it to deal easily with other ships and can be easily used as a part of fleet as well as on it's own. Nebula on the other hand profits strongly from supporting fleet and it's definitely skill-heavier than ISD1, but when used properly, it can easily deal damage worth two or three times of it's popcap

    • @EcksToo
      @EcksToo  3 роки тому +3

      Much like many of the Mon-Cala line & it's shield recharging ability. New Republic ships are designed to excel more in a fleet composition, rather than direct 1v1 damage. The Nebula has a LOT of firepower (note the ultra-heavy turbolaser), but needs to be surrounded by a fleet beside it to offset taking direct damage.
      TL;DR - Empire will always excel in 1v1 fights, because their ship designs take that into consideration.

    I'm finding The Secutor Star Destroyer seems to have received a nice buff in power and fire power. It may not be the most powerful but it seems to be the most buffed. I like using them they are ship to bring in when you want a good amount of fighter/bomber squadrons and great firepower. The Endurance vs a Venator. That would be like the latest Aircraft Carrier in the world today going against a WWII Aircraft Carrier. The Endurance should decimate the Venator with ease.
    In TR missiles and any solid projectiles aren't nearly as damaging as they are in AOTR. Which is nice at times when going up against Victory 1's and thinking oh shit my ships are screwed.
    22:45 minutes seconds in and I am liking this vid a lot. I like how you tell the differences in each and if one is older, newer, etc.
    Seems The Empire finally realized with the Rak Ehell that "Wow Ion Cannons are pretty damned amazing"
    The Battle of The SSD's reminded me of The Yoden Mod. LOL I'm not sure how many people will agree but a super laser on a SSD or any ship seems lame and over powered. Like an easy quick way to being unimaginative. If a ship is going to have a "Super Laser" the perfect example of balance would be The Chiss/Empire of The Hand's Peltast. Yeah its giant cannon is nuts but it as a ship isn't the toughest. Yet The Eclipse and Sovereign with that much hull, shields, and other weapons is kind of that Dumb OP take a big hammer approach to a super weapon.
    I watched the whole vid while working out in my room. You did a great job. My criticism of The Eclipse and Sovereign has nothing to do with you at all just letting you know. You did a great thorough review of comparing and contrasting the strengths and weaknesses of each ship. I did like how you put the Rak ehell against 2 Allegiances when you saw that in a one on one battle the Allegiance was decimated. It gave a great perspective on just how tough both 1 Rak ehell is against 1 Allegiance and then 2 Allegiances. The Rak ehell vs The Praetor II made a great point. Yeah you can have a ton of shields and ion cannons to take down your enemy's shields, but if you don't have the turbo lasers to back that up similarly equal hulled ship with more turbo lasers will probably win such as in The Praetor II vs The Rak ehell. Good one brother.

    9:00 everyone seems to forget the Venator was only 3 years old at the beginning of the Empire. It should still be VERY combat effective especially in the early GCW years and give any other larger ship a run for its money, especially in terms of fighters and bombers, all these mods only give Venators a paltry amount of fighters and bombers. Remember ISDs were produced at the end of the Clone Wars and still remained very combat relevant 20 years later. Even the other factions like the New Republic and EotH start making things like the Nebula and Ascendancy which are just Venator analogues.

Eclipse is only as a Hero during the Emperor's reign (Used to be tied to Palpatine himself but the AI kept putting him on the ground and squandering the ship so they were considering changing that, but that was years ago since I last played, not sure if they pulled the trigger on that) Bellator is built by a few warlord factions who don't have the Executor, or as a hero for some others.

    • @CoreyLoses
      @CoreyLoses 3 роки тому +3

      Fans *greatly* overstate how strong it's supposed to be, usually based on individual statements that they'd ignore for any other ship, especially considering they're given in some of the same places as other ships. When designing ships for the mod, we take into account given RPG stats, flavour text, and usage in-universe, but we also try to have some consistency there and find palces that are appropriate for it. The only indication that it should be "tanky" would be RPG stats that also put ships like the Battledragon above it in SotG from what I remember (I could be off on the specifics there), and put the Viscount as an easily cracked egg, but nobody ever argues we should use *those* stats as given.
      The Nebula is more fragile than other ships, but it has very high damage for its pop cap, *plus* power to weapons, and it outranges almost everything that doesn't belong to the Empire of the Hand. They're at their best when put with something tanky and obliterating stuff from the back line, which makes them easily able to take out even ISDIIs. But, you have to use them properly and use their strengths rather than just throw them directly into a brawling match with a much bigger ship.
      Charlie, here, is doing what basically everyone does wrong with the Nebula in the mod. He's basically ignoring all of their strengths to put them into a situation that highlights what they're *not* good at.

    • @WhoTookPlockrock
      @WhoTookPlockrock 3 роки тому +1

      @@CoreyLoses I get that theory on paper, but in practice what I've found is that enemies tend to ignore beefier ships I put closer to them and will put all possible attention on my Nebulas because it's just so easy to kill them. It also becomes a problem, in my own opinion, where you need two NR capital ships at a higher pop cap cost to equate the overall performance of a single ISD - despite these ostensibly being objective improvements over the ISD's design or at least the technology put into its construction.
      Like, I'm not saying you don't know what you're doing, but I think the Nebula could really use a LITTLE more beefiness, even something as small as 1,000 more shield points, because as it is right now it's fragile enough that there's pretty much zero reason to build it when you could have another MC90 - which sucks, because a wide variety of ships is what I love about the NR.

    In the movies you see big battleships fall out of favor for ships that can carry tons of fighters. Even in the base Empire at War the rebellion ships carried much more and better fighters than the empire did.
    In thrawns revenge, and legends in general, and even in the new movies, everybody just builds giant ships. You're seeing that even SSD's are vulnerable to fighters.
    Really every normal sized ship should never have exceeded the size of an ISD. Allegience didn't fix any of it's problems which was lack of fighters and lack of good fighters. When you think about it, a Venator should easily be able to destroy an ISD due to it's fighter compliment.
