Wake up babe, new EckhartsLadder just dropped.
@@DaedalEVE ggg FF y gggggggffggggggg no
@@DaedalEVE LOL
To this day, I maintain the opinion that the Harrower class is a top five design in all of star wars, legends or canon. It just looks so clean, menacing and imperious, it's a shame it hasn't been canonized yet because it's such an incredible design.
It was sort of like the Imperial Star Destroyer, but it was far smaller and likely far cheaper while still maintaining a good fighter amount as well firepower (In addition to being very modular, as in you can easily make it into a carrier or an anti-capital ship vessel). I think Thrawn would've really liked this ship.
@@MalevolentSpirit234 It's got less firepower, transport capacity, and Hyperdrive sped than a Clone Wars era Acclamator Assault Variant.
@@GonnaDieNever Well, it was built like a couple thousand years before the Acclamator so the lower firepower and hyperdrive speed is to be expected. It was also not designed as a troop transport, unlike an Acclamator, but rather as an actual frontline warship. I suspect that if it was refitted with the technology of the Galactic Empire it would then become viable once more, though it would be a costly repair.
The Harrower is what the Super Star Destroyer should have looked like.
fuckin agreed
"For its era, at 800km long the Harrower was a large ship" -eckhartsladder 2021
That cracked me up more than it should've
Yeah, the Harrower was "just" 800 meters long :D
Had to laugh too xD
@@cxmusicofficial yes but there were exceptions some reatxhes 1200m like those of kilran
@@MBoeltje41 I know, but I'm talking about the standard Harrower Class Dreadnought. There were also some variants of the Terminus Destroyer.
It was in one of the miniaturization ages, like in clone wars and legacy era.
In a "rule of two" era, a good Sith warship would borrow from the methodology of WW2 'Q ships'. Ships that look like other large commercial haulers, then panels pop open, and guns rise into view to wreck your day.
In a 'many Sith' era, something like the Harrower, built with whatever tech is available in your time.
I'm not so sure about that. By rule of two era, short of something like a lucrehulk, most military ships seem to have surpassed the size of merchant shipping.

And to be frank...Brutus homicida fuit. Proditor. Amicum suum occidit.

Given that it's my favorite incarnation of the Sith, I'd have to go with any ship from the True Sith Empire. I still get chills watching that one Old Republic cinematic where the Sith ships jump into Korriban's orbit.
"If there are two things the Sith love doing. It's number one: Backstabbing murder orgies and number two: Making giant fuck off ships because they gotta overcompenstate for something." -Myself, probably
I will give the Sith and Dark Side factions their due. Their ships are more often than not, more aesthetically pleasing than their Republic/Light side faction counterparts.
And preferably make their ships look like knives, because it reminds them of backstabbing.
If I was a Jedi turned Sith, i'd name my warship: "The Oath breaker."
If it was me then I'd name mine "Treachery's Heart" (for personal reasons) or "Onrai's Fury" (for historical reasons)...
It's a fitting name, considering that it was the Jedi did when they forced the schism between light and dark, and accepting their extremist ideology.
Personally, I'd command a Harrower class called Breaker of Chains.
If it was me it would be called "the hugger of worlds" it would trick the enemy into a false Sense of security
"For this era at *800 kilometers long* "
People in Kuat Drive Yards:
wait......
Lol been looking for this comment. Seems no one caught it
Planetary sized ships, epic
If i were a sith, i would use an Interdictor Class Cruiser named the “Arguing Semantics”, cause why not, it’s what the Jedi and Republic do all day
Nah, call it “The Filibuster”. Nothing screams “You’re stuck here” like a legislative quagmire.
*laughs in Sith Lord*
"If I were a Sith" My ship would be called the Blacklight...
As for the design? thats harder to narrow down, because I would be going for something like the Nemesis from Transformers (G1/Beast Wars), that angular spearhead design, but I'd like big forward arcing battle-blades... not to many (like Star Treks Scimitar design), 4-8 total... Either 2 just on the port and starboard; or port and starboard, PLUS dorsal and ventral.
My Star Wars Sith ship would be a medium-weight-class ship too, 500-900m, and which sporting Turbolasers and Ion Cannons, would rely on its psychological impact to break the opponents morale more then any of its weapons.
...really, im a Sith Space Pirate :D
Ah yes, a man of culture.
If I was a sith I'd want to command an executor class called The Emperor's Wrath
Mine would be called the Emperors Dong
That's fire🔥
Mine would be called The Inexorable
If I were a Sith, the obvious ship a true Sith would want is the Sun Crusher. So that would be my choice.
"If I were a Sith Lord..." I would take a Quasar Fire Class- named 'The Spirit of Vengeance' and fill it with fighter bombers designed for blitz tactics.
Hope you enjoy this video, was lots of research. Here's a short you all may enjoy:

The Sith are like an intergalactic Cockroach 🪳 no matter what you do they just keep coming back.
So... on the 31st, are we getting a Sith Costume reveal?
@@aralornwolf3140 No because Justin is a Jedi, not a Sith.
@@mimemouse997 ,
Yet... this is Sith week...
the harrower was 800km's long?? wow
As for a favorite I absolutely love the Harrower class cruiser. I honk it’s well designed for dealing damage with its turbo lasers and has a capable point defense systems. It brings over 100 starfighter in to battle: I really believe it is one of the best multi role flexible ships. It’s not perfect at anything but it’s really good at everything like the X-wing or MC-90.
Eclipse type cruiser named “Blight” or “The Blight” with some added pulsating lights near the edges to make it look like moving stars
"Oblivion" is such an elegant word to name anything. Particularly fitting for the flagship of a comically evil Sith ruler.
You should just cover the Sith in all their glory...
That would be a long video.
The Harrower Class just looks great! I love all of the KOTOR / TOR era designs for both the Empire and the Republic.
Interesting that you bring it up. My OC is a Revan-era sith lord, and he commands a Harrower called the "Supremacy". After he leaves the Sith and the Sith fall, The Supremacy becomes The "Broken Castle". This remains his flagship for over 4000 years, a long time to live up to it's new name, as it becomes as much of a patchwork as the Millennium Falcon. He later retires the Broken Castle for an all-custom Flagship called the Eternity.
Probably your most interesting video in a while - and your content has gotten a LOT better recently
Would also love more stuff about sith timelines
THANKS ECK!! I've been wanting to know so badly about the Great Hyperspace War warships
Hope this satisfied
@@EckhartsLadder it did! Tysm
I would command a Harrower-class Dreadnought. Unlike most of the Sith ships I believe it is a near-perfect mix of firepower, armour and starfighter superiority. I would name it 'The Merciless Night'
Nice good job I stayed up this looks great
Hey Eck! I love your videos and you got my into star wars again. Can you do a commandos of the Republic video soon please
Sith week is kind of appropriate for the last full week of October, hope you end it with some Sith ghosts on Halloween, love the videos Eck the time and work you put into them really shows.
I love the design of harrower class dreadnought, it’s design reflects both the sharp militaristic elements of the ISD all while still looking new, unique and threatening all at once. Something I personally think is missing from the new sequel trilogy.
Did you say 800km long ? I'll take one of those...and simple it's called Jedi's tears...
hi eckharts your the best star wars channel out there :) your content is so good keep it up man
also your outro is fire, whats the song for it?
Home - Resonance
@@EckhartsLadder omg thx :)
Gonna be a great one!
Gotta love those KotOR-era Interdictor-class cruisers, they look amazing.
Could you do a video comparing land based anti ship weapons or just diffrent types of land based weapon emplacements from diffrent eras?
The question comes to mind, what was it like being a regular person in the Sith Empire? How much did the Sith empire rely on non-force sensitive people to do things (like crew a starship)?
You should do more videos on Darth Krayt, the Fel empire, and the galactic alliance!
Oh and the second galactic civil war!
I love the EckhartsLadder dog outro
This is the content I like to see!
I love the Terminus-class!
Not trying to be picky or annoying Eckhartsladder, but I'm just pointing out that you made a small mistake at 4:52 saying The Harrower class battlecruiser was 800 kilometers long when its only 800 meters. I'm Just also gonna say that I enjoy watching your content every time there is a new upload. Keep up the good work!
In a starwars RPG I was in, I commanded a Terminus class destroyer called the Tempest. But as the Harrower is my favorite, id command one of those called "The Inevitable End"
Speaking of Star Wars, myself and some friends are going to be making a Star Wars game of our own, I know youd love it Eck, cant wait to tell you more later on!
I've always loved the Golden Era Sith ships. I would command one of those (but beefed up and customized of course) and it would be named the "Drakodorf" and of course it would have it's own theme music.
Hey Eck, might want to check 4:51 real quick! Cool video though!
I'm part of an RP guild for SWTOR and my character recently became Grand Admiral. He commands a Harrower class called the Maleficar
My favorites are the Derriphan and Terminus. Love their silhouette. Also, the Knight Errant comics have minor Sith factions active during the New Sith Wars. They have some ships in these comics.
I am extremely here for any and all Tales of the Jedi content
Man this galaxy just can’t catch a break with all the wars going on
So true. "Star Peace" just doesn't have that same ring to it.
Little correction: When you were talking about the harrower you said 800 km instead of meters. Great video though!
I always loved the Harrower class vessel from SWTOR. I do like how it can also count as a carrier and a battleship. I always wanted one in the game, but knew wasn't possible until the clan thing was added. I also love the Eclipse class super star destroyer. If I commanded one of them, I'd probably name the Harrower the Emporer's Fury. And if it was an Eclipse class, maybe the Sword of Armageddon.
Looks good lots of motion images
If I had to choose, I'd pick the Harrower (SWTOR fan here!). I'm a little bummed that the Eternal Empire ships weren't featured since they were technically Sith via Vitiate/Valkorian.
Always thought it was clever to pick names like “Benevolence” for very lethal ships
I saw some artwork for a Empire at war mod i believe. It had Ships for the Sith Empire that looked a bit like Battle Barges from 40k. Can’t remember the mod
The centurion class ship is by far my favorite. Possibly because Nihilus is my second favorite sith lord. But honestly, if I was to command something like that I would probably name it something simple like Umbra. It doesn't need a fancy name, it only needs a fancy reputation and a simple name that can be remembered.
In the WEG 2e RPG my cica 5bby character is restoring a Gozanti to tender their TIE's, but I've found a crashed clone wars era precursor to the Gladiator Escort Carrier that looks like a scaled down Harrower with a Galactic empire era bridge sticking out the top, half it's complement was T.I.E. fighters (the other half where Y-Wings that where used for evac around the time of the Crash).
ATM I'm using C1's an R2 and a Betty droid to try and run my Gozanti. C1-11P (Chip) be my side kick R2-CAP (Cap) and BD-0LL-Y (normally Doll, but associates call her "B-Doll" "Dolly" or "B-Dolly") boss around a couple of C1's and a couple of OOM's.
I call my Gozanti the "Grey Walker". the Escort Carrier is a Minous class and only has a Registry number with a NX- prefix.
If I was to have something for myself I'd like a Harrower built using "Modern" tech, though my "Daily Drive" would likely be a modern tech Fury.
Can you do a republic version of this
One of my favorite video games is a DS game called Infinite Space. In it, you can obtain well over a hundred different designs of ship that fit into the categories of Destroyer, Cruiser, Battleship, Carrier, or Other. Battleships are among the largest and most powerful ships, though the game does lean heavily to Carrier towards endgame. Various nations in the game have their ships designed in recognizable ways, and some of my favorite designs come from a nation called Reginland. Once I obtain some of their blueprints, my entire fleet becomes very Reginlanic...Except my flagship if I manage to obtain the designs for an Enemonzoan ship known as the Impero. It has a double-bow design and can even fit a decent amount of fighters while still being a powerful Battleship. The funny thing is that the ship was originally designed as a kind of key for a superweapon laser battlestation that can wipe out whole fleets from the other side of the system. So my fleet ends up being a bunch of large blue/grey guns-with-engines in formation around a double-bowed red/black star destroyer...
Now, giving some considerable thought to my darker aspects as well as some of the things I most attribute with myself, my Sith name would be Darth Mental. As for my flagship, it would be an Impero-class battleship called the Insanity's Wrath.
...If I don't poke myself on the points of the Impero, I'll cut myself on the edge of what I just wrote...Seriously, though, Infinite Space is a great game that I highly reccomend and I now have a major urge to play again.
4:51 the harrower is now 800 km long as confirmed by eck
Eckhartsladder: At 800 km long the harrower was large
Mega class Stardestroyer/Supremacy: I'm about to end this man's whole carier.
Do all Jedi star fighters!
The harrower is the coolest sith ship in my opinion. I really like the Arquitens class command cruiser, but If i could make another variant of the ship, i would make 2 airlocks for tie fighters for the front, and a small quasar fire class cruiser-like hangar in the bottom
Epic vid
Centurion class battle cruiser best weapons double than normal with those big guns from the eclipse fan film you showed armour and shields with power generator to match called the reaper
I think there’s a new capital ship in the halo campaign trailer, eck
some of these ship designs remind me of Halcyon class cruisers from Halo. they even have ODST drop pods
Speaking of different Sith warships across various eras, I noticed that you barely covered the ships used by the One Sith. More specifically, the video doesn't mention Darth Krayt's fleet of Dragon Ships and Annihilator-class starfighters from the Legacy comics.
When you're done sith week you should try to make a compilation video out of then show the entire history of the sith
I’d name my ship “Sunk Costs” and I’d personally quite like to rock a modified Imperial II or, if I was going for something smaller, a Harrower or Victory II.
i quite like the harrower class hope they make into the movies/tv shows
Familiar diamond shaped battlecruiser with increased armor and firepower named the _Zillo_
One day in 1977, five year old me watched in awe as the Devastator loomed into view, attacking that puny Rebel corvette... I have written stories with the Imperial class as the flag ship. I have always called it "Immortal." since then I have written other stories, played pen and paper, tabletop and countless video games that required a capital ship.
It was always called Immortal, and unless it was physically represented at something different it was always an ISD. It has been a Decimator (SWG), several Star Trek ships (I believe I am up to "G") in STO and a Battle Cruiser and Battleship in Eve Online as examples.
But ISD will always be my first love.
The Harrower is by far my favorite Sith ship. Would definitely name it the Darth Jar Jar
Can you do sith infantry (not force users, common grunt) from the first sith empire to last sith empire at the 7th battle of Rusan
Harrower Class 😍
Swtor era is personal one my favorite ers of the sith and the republic, wish that bioware expanded more on the swtor era with more ship designs and such. I love the way the old republic looked a bit more advanced than what we see in clone and galactic empire era. Though palpatine and vader were the only sith that ruled within the galactic empire with just handful of darkside adepts, would it really be really be considered a sith empire?
If i could i would made more advanced version of the harrower dreadnaught and Terminus destroyer, along modifying any other sith ship along building some new ones. A lot of fan designs i seen over the years that i do enjoy.
I would want a Imperial Star Destroyer, custom or mark 3 which would have some design differences to make up for the lines faults and failings, such as point defense and lower profile bridge and shield domes. I would christen it The Redeemer.
Fleet battle between
Grand admiral Thrawn vs. Ender Wiggin
Each one has an equal sized fleet with equally capable subordinates, and since Ender is from a different universe each has equal understanding of the technology they’re using. They are in command of Star Wars vessels. Pick a famous fleet of your choosing I’d suggest death squadron
Video Idea: What if the Replicators(StarGate) replaced the Flood in Halo CE?
If I was picking a flagship, I’d probably want something for more of a supporting role, since I’d probably have other battleships and/or destroyers in any reasonable naval formation. I’d pick a Secutor-class Battlecarrier called “The Fated Compliance”
I am a big fan of the Venator and the Harrower designs, so toss up between the 2. For ship name(s).... Will Breaker, Fury of Night, or Nolentem Fata.
@EckhartsLadder I have a quick question was there any Sith (species) by the time a Darth Krate (I don’t know how to spell his name or in what way to spell it)
I would name my ship “The fluffy bunny” because what is more evil, than taking something innocent and corrupting it?
Have you been to Caer Bannog, then?
"That's no ordinary rabbit!"
The harrower is one of my favorite star destroyer
I liked your video but wish it had more details and pictures of the ships. (But mostly more details 🙂)
The good old days 💪🏻🙏❤️🎉 the Harrower is a beauty, I do like Imperial vessels overall, they just need more anti-starfighter support, corvettes/frigates/gunships and perhaps sith-alchemical beasts like leviathans etc
Going for a mix and match. My ship would be an Eclipse class Star Destroyer. I love the design and having a more compact Death Star laser could be handy sometimes.
As for my Sith title, I'm not sure. Part of me wants to be Darth Revan, since part of the appeal of KOTOR 1 was Revan being a custom character. If not, then call me Darth Rimorr.
I like how the newer the faction the more vague it got
I fing love the harrower
Of all the Sith warships my favourite has to be the Harrower class, and if I was a blood thirsty Sith I'd name her: Jedi's Bane.
I really like the look of the Terminus class but the SSD is of course iconic. I think I would have a SSD but class it as a cruiser then call it the Corrvete. That way my enemies would be just as confused about my flagship is as I am when reading about unfamiliar ships in the books.
Let’s go!!!
Dave, that's what I'd call my ship.
"SIR! Another ship has just dropped out of hyperspace and closing fast...oh no.... it's Dave." 😨
👍😂
Run and fear, all, for it is I, Lord of the Sith Sir Henry, on the most impressive dreadnought you have ever seen....
The Prancing Pony!
A personal World Devastator would be kinna cool actually?
I would rock a harrower class ship, but with some modifications, I'd definitely want a ton of turbo lasers and point defense guns, but I'd have some tactical anti ship missile batteries and perhaps a giant death beam. Nothing says evil bad guy like giant death beams. I'd call it "Demoralizer"
I've always had the idea that if I had a ship, like an ISD or Harrower, I would name it Eviscerator, it's my go to for a ship name.
My flagship sword of darkness eclipse class star drednoght
Kind of late to the discussion, but here's my take:
My perfect Sith warship would be an Executor-class Star Destroyer. That thing looks like a Titan-sized dagger.
As for the name, I'd choose "The Aneurysm": even if it doesn't kill or cripple you outright, it's mere presence is enough to paralyze you with fear and dread.
Yo Eck, about the Harrower XD
800km is a bit much, don't ya think? Hahaha
Either a Harrower or a Sovereign, the Sovereign being a particular favorite of mine. I’d name it Ash Horizon, on account of the color and the sheer mass of the thing. Oh she’d be a thing of beauty.
I really love EAW Remake's version of the Harrower, it's more modern looking and more powerful since more space for power generation. If I can strap a Silencer or Gauntlet on them I would be unstoppable at least in conventional ways. It would be near impossible to destroy for something smaller than a fleet but you can destroy it with something like the Torpedo sphere or larger. The only problem is that we need to move like a UNSC ship and constantly repositioning to use the superlaser as much as possible. Since it's going to be automated as much as possible (at least the superlaser part) the radiation from the superlaser will not harm the crew unlike in the Old Republic era. I would call my flagship the Purger of Hope. Cause it's appearance will cause the enemy to lose all hope due to it's superlaser being a literal fleet killer.
