      I got a new idea for these videos.
      "How would the SCP Foundation handle..."
      Basically the Foundation is gonna try to contain/destroy something from Sci Fi that crashed on earth before it starts getting out of hand.

    All these Flagships are a true waste of men and material. If the men and materials that were used to build the Supremacy or Eclipse were used to make Star Destroyers the Rebellion and the Resistance never would’ve stood a chance.

      Hondo's pirates' fleet is a joke. there was barely a functioning battleship sized ship, additionally to not that well armed old ships.
      The black sun comes after, their greatest asset is that had hundreds of ships at their disposal.
      The Hutts are next in the scale of power not only did they have supremacy over the underworld for thousands of year, they also hold the control of handful planets as usual their main fleet is made of old dreadnoughts, kossak class ships and several types of corellian ships but their biggest asset they have is their mercenary fleets, they could hire the deadliest bounty hunters to backup their fleets in case of battle.
      Then the most powerful fleet among them all, the zann consortium's it is made of all types of ships from old ships that they could obtain from the black market or salvage to the highest end imperial prototypes including tie defenders and the really big gun (If you know what I mean ;) ) passing through starvipers and mandalorian ships. They have the most diverse fleet and more importantly the most powerful ships of all the criminal groups previously mentioned.

    Were this a versus series, your argument against the Malevolence would be entirely justified. However, this is *not* a versus series, so it’s not. The Malevolence did what it needed to. It could take out any ship the Republic threw at it, and it could take them out entirely. It didn’t *need* a superlaser. It didn’t *need* super powerful weapons systems. Why waste resources on what was basically a mobile capital city when they didn’t need to? Also, I’d prefer going back to the old factions, the Republic, Separatists, Rebels, and Empire.

    I would argue there’s no evidence that the Malevolence’s Ion cannon would work significantly less on larger ships. I’d imagine it would still knock out everything it hits on a larger ship, having a knock on effect. For example, it could knock out power generation, or a huge chunk of weapons etc.

    • @Shaggy_Rogers0001
      @Shaggy_Rogers0001 2 роки тому +4

      The ion cannon on the Malevolence would do little to no damage at all to the shields of the Eclipse, and the same can be said for the Viscount and Executor.

  • @CatNibbles
    @CatNibbles 6 років тому +448

    I agree with your rankings but I think you don't give the Malevolence as much credit as it deserves. When you watch the Star Wars the Clone Wars show you can tell this ship is not lacking in firepower you lay say it is. It's bristling with guns everywhere. You even posted a clip where the Y-wing squadron was moving in close to the hull of the ship and just one of the sides of one of the gun platforms spares no room for anything but the 20-30 guns it has. And it has even more and larger flat areas where the same is left for the guns. I don't see why they would bother putting an Ion cannon on this ship if they couldn't quickly destroy their enemy before they can get systems back online, and ships are torn to shreds by this thing. Also, the Malevolence is depicted as being very maneuverable in the Clone Wars show. Once they detected Anakin's spacecraft in the debris field, that thing swung around in seconds, which is insane for such a large craft. And while it's Ion cannon might not be as effective as it was against the 3 Venator classes (even though it disabled all 3 of them in a single shot), it would at the very least disable large portions of enemy ships. If it went up against the Eclipse and it hit the right spot, it could potentially render the Eclipse's pintal mounted laser useless. Also, the durability of the Malevolence is quite high. Even after it's ion cannon exploding, the ship was still functioning (though with severe damage). It would have been able to escape the republic ships chasing it if Anakin had not reprogrammed the Hyperdrive to smash it into a moon.

    • @horationelson2440
      @horationelson2440 6 років тому +34

      Makes me wonder why the separatists stopped with one. If they built one, they had the infrastructure already to build another. They also have lots of large ships like the larger providence class and the lucrehulk class, and even their supply ships are massive compared to republic freighters. I mean, yeah as a single unit it would be expensive, but compared to the rest of the fleet, it is just a slightly larger drop in the pond.

      actually there are atleast 3 of those ships, the Malevolence, the Malevolence II (surprise surprise it gets destroyed too) and an unidentified ship that was built by Enoth System Shipyards

    • @tic-tac9323

      goddamnit theres actually 4, but the first one that was called, wait for it, the Subjagator, wasnt armed with an ion cannon, instead it was Trihexalon launcer, and so the republic didnt expect the malevolence coming with its secret weapon

Easy, cheap, and impenetrable these ships simply ruled the galaxy with an iron fist....

      I do get your point though, that was the most disappointing part of the movie for me.

    It is also worthy of note that any friendly ships - capital or otherwise - would have to stay out of the firing arc of the ion cannon for best results. This would leave the Subjugator quite exposed.

    I feel like you often underestimate the power of the malevolence. We see on 2 separate occasions that smaller ion weapons can take out much much larger ships. Ion bombs in rogue one and the ion cannon in Empire strikes back both disable an Empiral star destroyer completely and relatively easily. I feel we can assume that the Ion cannon on the malevolence is several times more power then those 2 examples.

    • @clovislfrc9881
      @clovislfrc9881 6 років тому +17

      As a flagship, having your most powerful weapon on your broadsides is a disadvantage compared to having a nose mounted weapon. It means that to utilize it you will need to face your broadside to the enemy which isn't very tactically sound. Mounting it on a destroyer's or a corvette's broadside would be far more effective as they are mobile and can flank enemies

    • @Herpaderp8354
      @Herpaderp8354 6 років тому +6

      LFCATFE if a weapon like that was mounted to a destroyer or frigate, the best it could take out is a few fighters, it wouldn't have the power. And having it on the broadside would be better in this case because if it worked in a fleet situation, the other vessels would protect it and it could make a quicker getaway if needed if it was pointed away from the other vessels/debris in its fleet. It may also just go back to naval warfare on earth where the broadside gave more firepower as more cannons were brought to bear than just the few that could fire forward

    • @Joshua-yf5mh
      @Joshua-yf5mh 6 років тому +5

      I think that if your fleet is generally faster/ more agile than your enemy's and you have the proper ships for it, you could do a very effective broadside on them. As you circle around to their side, they would have to fully re-position or be caught in a line if they only turn in place. So you would either constantly force them out of position or they would be stuck in their own line of fire.
      Granted, im sure a good commander would be able to prevent this from being too effective.

    If I have to rank them by logic, the eclipse is absolutely top in design. Even if I totally love the Mon Calar style and the Raddus is one of my favorite ships in all of Star Wars. I hated to see it destroyed in the last Jedi so quickly without getting to see its fighting abilities. But loved the portrayal of the iconic Mon Calar shielding.
    I totally agree with your ranking.

It isn’t supposed to be a flagship, instead meant get into combat with supporting ships. Had it been escorted by a proper fleet, I am sure the Subjugator would be perfect against republic fleets and maybe even Imperial fleets. But in essence I think the Subjugator should never be considered a flagship.

  • @history1099
    @history1099 5 років тому +3

    Depends on the task, in a open space battle where they know each other's capabilities it would be between the Eclipse and the Malevolence. If the Malevolence is able to properly deploy its emp it stomps every other ship, as once they lose power they are just an enormous target with no shields or defensive firepower.

    • @mrdunk2955
      @mrdunk2955 Рік тому

      I think the Malevolence would still lose to all of them. If against the Eclipse they start at a long range, the Eclipse would simply oneshot it with the super laser. I they come out right on top of each other and a brawl/broadside fight ensues, then the Eclipse or any of the other ships will with their absolutely overwelming firepower, deplete the Malevolence's shields and likely destroy the ion cannon before it fires. If the ion cannon is fired in time and at close range its radios might not grow large enough to disable enough of the other ships, the Eclipse and the Viscount would easily be able to destroy the malevolence with even 1/4 of their firepower. And the Supremasy, well the Malevolence simply wont be able to disable it completely no matter what, it's just that big and the it will be able to reliably beat the Malevolence with like 1/10 firepower. And lets not forget fighter power, if the dreadnoughts deploy their fighters which vastly outnumber the Malevolence's, even if the main ship gets disabled the fighters will do short work of the Malevolence.

    I feel the Malevolence is a better option for producing numerous heavy capital ships. These vessels though lacking in firepower compared to other vessels of similar size or others in this video does have a substantial level of firepower. Its Ion weapon though having issues can disable entire fleets of star destroyers and leave them defenseless making the vessels lesser amount of firepower negligible. It would never face any other vessel on this list and win, maybe in a 3 to 1 but again it would probably be cheaper and more versatile having 3 malevolence's than 1 executor.

    • @nicholaswong6737
      @nicholaswong6737 6 років тому

      Sure the malevolence could be used and produced as a standard battlecruiser, (It being only 5km) but as a star dreadnought and flagship, it falls flat. Which is the point of the video. The ships other ships discussed in the video are 17km+ and have overwhelmingly superior firepower shielding and carrying capacity.

    I agree with your decisions. Especially with the placement of the Defender flagship.
    It's greater shields would allow it to last longer against anything less than the Eclipse-class super-laser, meaning that the admiral and other command-staff can remain in a fleet-to-fleet battle longer and have less probability of being destroyed by combined enemy focused-firepower, positions or fighters. Avoiding have the head of fleet and leadership cut-off and leaving their allies leaderless.
    At the same time, the higher amount of fighters that can be released form the ship would grant more flexibility, defensive screens, offensive attacks and strategic squad-deployments than the other ships. Outside of the simple but effective mindset of more people throw into the fight.
    Your remarks on the Subjugator-class cruisers, especially the Malevolence, are also very accurate. The ship itself, while still maneuverable in the various depictions, would not function well with a supportive-fleet from the magnitude of allied fighters that can be caught in its Ion-canon and vulnerability against bomber-runs. It could only be used as a long-distance attack option, and with nimble cruisers to avoid being caught in the cross-fire of such blasts.
    Also, Space combat is 3-dimensional, not 2-dimensional. The location of the bridge protruding from a long tower at the rear of the ship would be dangerously exposed to anyone attacking from above, or diagonally above and behind the ship. The Malevolence can only really serve in independent gorilla-style space raids against small fleets from a distance. Not high-scale operations like the Battle of Endor or the CIS assault on Corescant.

      @@connorgolden4 exactly. Just look at hoth defense ion cannon vs the isd. It is tiny by comparison but crippled the ship. Or how about the experimental b wing vs the imperial light cruiser in rebels that one taps it. Judge me by my size do you?

    Super Weapons! Super Weapons! Super Weapons! What happened to practicality! Thats why I'm not a big fan of the new star wars movies. It's an over reliance on super weapons to drive the plot. Starkiller Base, Mandator 4, and supremacy make the story to darn predictable!
    Enemy shows off big super weapon/ship. Rebels run and hide. Gain a small advantage. And kablooey!!! The weapon blows up!
    Good job to the New Republic! Making ships that are actually practical and not just a firepower show🖒🖒🖒

    Great video, I feel like the Subjugator would have been a better specialist ship surrounded by larger more powerful ships ie Super Star Destroyers. Filling a similar specialist role/special use role as did the Intradictor Star Destroyers did in SW Rebels. I imagine in a longer engagement you could see the Subjugator used to incapacitate portions of a larger fleet while it is protected by other ships.

    The Subjugator-Class seems like it could a line of ships rather than being a fleet's flagship. The CIS by far has the most diverse fleet of ships so it wouldn't feel out of place. We saw its effectiveness in the Clone Wars, being able to freely level Venerators would have given the CIS a major leg up in engagements against the Republic.
