>at least 35 star destroyers >each is 1600m long, the same size as the rebel flagship >1 super star destroyer >19 KILOMETERS long, probably 100x the tonnage of the entire rebel fleet combined >Death Star II is fully operational and even vaporizes at least two rebel cruisers Are we really supposed to believe that the rebels actually won this fight? There's simply no realistic way they could have escaped this without getting their ass kicked.
Also, why didn't they immediately re-enter hyperspace once they realized it was a trap?
How many ships did the Rebels have? How well were their cruisers armed compared to Star Destroyers? I'm sure there's 8 million EU books about that.
>Also, why didn't they immediately re-enter hyperspace once they realized it was a trap? Did you watch the fucking movie before complaining? Admiral Ackbar tells the fleet to retreat. Then Lando convinces them they need to give Han more time.
Gabriel Perez
did you watch the movie?
Gavin Flores
>19 Kilometres long
Not this argument.
No one ever decided on the true length.
Once the Death Star fell the Empire went into disarray and the rebels got the upper hand once they decided to retreat.
Xavier Hernandez
They are shown with only two cruisers in the beginning
Caleb Cox
Did you?
Grayson Smith
It's still 19. It's at least over 17 by film.
Kevin Sullivan
Later during the battle you can count like 15 of them, they have superior shielding but weaker armament compared to ISD.
Jonathan Jones
>Later during the battle you can count like 15 of them so they multiply themselves during the battle for no reason and that makes the scene better?
>size You forgot that each Star Destroyer should have had at least a 100 tie-fighters each. Not to mention the Death Star 2 should have been able to crew thousands of them.
While we only see a single wing attack the rebels.
Wyatt Gonzalez
>be imperial fleet >get this rebel scum armada cornered >they're actually fighting back, the madmen >they took out the SSD which is 100x the tonnage of their entire fleet with ONE fighter >they took out the Death Star 2 which is 10000000000x the tonnage of their fleet with THREE fighters >along with that they took out the Emperor, most of the top brass and Lord Vader
The scene in Showdown in Little Tokyo where the now dead Brandon Lee tells Dolph Lundgren that Dolph has the biggest penis he's ever seen.
John Ward
That hundred ties was always such bullshit. A Nimitz carries a hundred craft and isds are countless times larger.
Isaiah Perez
Are Star Destroyers LITERALLY the stupidest design in all of history?
>no main battery of massive heavy weapons, just tons of little pea shooter lasers
>XBoxHueg for no good reason whatsoever
>SSD so long and stupid that you literally need a fucking internal tram system to get around
>Dudes try to hoof it, end up dying of hunger and thrist on their journey
SO STUPID!!

Star Wars is FUCKING RETARDED
Robert Price
Shut up, cuck.
Christopher Scott
Med-bay scene from Alien Covenant
Justin Robinson
Another draw back is that they apparently have to fly the right way up.
I don't think the artificial gravity system they have in Star Wars is really worth the tactical tradeoff.
Jayden Powell
Easy.
Just concentrate all fire on that SUPAH STAAR DESTROYA
Austin Carter
We need to go bigger
Ian Kelly
>old EU was goo-
Christopher Baker
Once they decide to stay and fight it out Ackbar sends out a galaxywide emergency message calling for every combat capable rebel ship to get to Endor ASAP.
There's single capital ships and fighter squadrons hyperspacing in all the time.
EU book source of course but it fits right in.
Asher Campbell
You big dummy.
Justin Jones
I lose my shit at this every time anyone got more/similar ones?
Levi Price
>Also, why didn't they immediately re-enter hyperspace once they realized it was a trap? in the games the empire has ships called interdictors that stop ships from going to hyperspace
Robert Brown
here you go
Jason Taylor
>mfw concentrate all fire = two a-wings shoot it
Ryan Powell
>I remember when the vader fleet used interdictors to easily stop all those rebel transports from escaping in "the empire strikes back", and caught to millenium falcon too.
Mason Richardson
>Also, why didn't they immediately re-enter hyperspace once they realized it was a trap?
gravity well projectors from an interdictor class
Noah Ross
It's because all of the Bwings were blowing up a Star destroyer. Look at the background of his picture. There is a deleted scene of them doing it.
Ryan Hernandez

Noah Rodriguez
thats what the iron cannons were shooting
Hunter Moore
emperor was using battle meditation the whole fight till he died and the fleet went into disarray from the shock
Jackson Cook
Tie fighters are inferior to rebel starfighters, any type really. Ties only win by mass numbers. Regular ties dont have shields and only have blasters, no missiles. In a straight fight, xwings would always win.
Ian Baker
it's actually the Death Star which is the stupidest design. The only reason the empire even made one was for ambiguous evil Sith reasons. It was already explained a single Star Destroyer could level a planet. Instead of building the Death Star the empire could have built 1000 Star Destoryers.
Logan Taylor

Jose Hill

John Peterson
Doesn't Han say it would take the entire Imperial fleet to destroy a planet?
Jordan Clark
You could destroy a planet by throwing a large rock at it.
Benjamin Mitchell
I could watch a TV show set on this beast
Bentley Edwards
>You could destroy a planet by throwing a large rock at it.
Sssh mass drivers are a secret high tech weapon. You can't just go to the asteroid belt of any random system and start flinging huge rocks as soon as you get any kind of FTL drive. Cmon. That's unfair.
Elijah Phillips
"The star destroyers are a mile long." -- the commandment from on high
"Well, make this super star destroyer 10x as big, or 10 miles long"
Everything else is just idiots playing with pixels and guessing when there's no need to guess.
Owen Morris
Aren't those EU?
John Morales
You see Interdictors in Rogue One.
Owen Barnes
Star destroyers vary in size, from 3500-4000 meters to 7000+ meters, depending on the type. They are capable of leveling a planet through bombardment, but clearly the death star is more efficient and doesnt take nearly as much time.
Mason Rodriguez
>comparing arabs to white-supremacist imperials
ok there
read any contemporary military history in the middle east you'de realize how bad the mussies are at it
