    I personally think that Tactical droids were losing so often, because they were often memory-wiped and had only limited amount of experience and non-standard situations that they can include in their calculations. I think Super-Tactical droid was able to keep these data, even after memory-wipe.

      I believe there is a point in the lore that stated the T series had an issue with improvisation early on, but as they gained real world experience could become WAY more effective. It was just so rare for these droids to be left alive after a few conflicts that few did

      ​@@sladewilson6584 CIS made a huge mistake decommissioning Droid Control Ships after Naboo. Their role should be changed to a Data Center Ship. Download in real time all tactical and operational data from multiple levels of droids including T-series and ST-series. And send them out via hyperspace transmissions to other ships so they could upload them to tactical droids memory cores. It would exponentially increase their experience levels and allow better analysis of the battlefield.

      Considering General Kaylani had the autonomy to assume the shutdown code at the end of the war was a Republic ruse, and thus refuse to obey it, I would say it’s entirely possible the Super Tactical Droids were never wiped and operated at a much higher level.

      Seems more likely that much like stormtroopers what we are being told is not the same as what we are shown. The tactical droid is meant to be a threat but because of how the show is structured where the Jedi and clones are meant to be the plucky heroes fighting against the odds the tactical droid must be intellectually inferior to the protagonists. Not that the show is bad because of this it just makes the lore a bit harder to understand because of the dissidence.

      Freefall puts a nice pin on this: There's a character who wants to replace the workers with robots as a cost saving measure (as the situation at the station he runs is THAT dire). He's not so willing to go through with it when he's informed an administrative position like his would be easiest to replace (though he admits that this alone wouldn't save the station).
      The people who want to replace people with machines often end up being the people easiest to replace with machines.

      The tactical droids seem like really good second in commands, but they all seem to have been given an incredibly arrogant personality which naturally makes them hard to work with for organic leaders. That personality I think helps stop tactical droids from working together and creating Star wars skynet. But it also leads to a lot of these arrogant generals really hating their tactical Droid, but they would make a good adjunct.

    I love how intimidating super tactical droids are you do get the feeling that every one of them is an artfully created masterpiece of a Droid not mass-produced. With the regular tactical droids. You can tell that they're a bit more standardized and produced. Also, in my mind, the reason the tactical droids are all so arrogant is to stop them from working together and creating some kind of Droid revolution because each tactical Droid thinks it's Superior to the other ones. Which is probably why they only made a few super tactical droids and they were all handcrafted because if they made too many they absolutely would rebel against the Confederate Parliament.

    Honestly, it was a missed opportunity for Kalani to join the Rebellion. On one hand the logic is sound. It doesnt want tojoin a possible sinking ship. On the other hand it would continue its programming of fighting the republic/empire. Kalani would also be a great asset, but also it is reasonable to assume that it woukd start treating rebel lives as expendable and possible flare uo anti seperatist droid sentiment (which were high among the rebels). Kalani likely at first will not understand the process of the asymettical strategies the Rebels use and be stuck in a learning period, learning asymetrical warfare and doing away with the conventional warfare of the CIS. It would be neat to see, but i can see the problems. Im sure Chopper would've enjoyed a few droid buddies though.

  • @Anonymous_glitch

    I think the problem is that they're too fast and they're probably wiped of their memories.
    Kalani was able to win against the rebels, because he had absolute control over the situation. But that's because he's had time to evaluate everything one of his calculations.
    Even with computers in store wars, there is still so much variables involved, experience is still needed androids, and that is why some of the best are just long living, because even though they can do the things of them that they're supposed to do, they have experience. You can't exactly ensure which way a person will react, you may be able to learn about psychology, but it won't prepare you for everything

      @C03-T3 Not at all! Droids are actually really fun to build in-game, as they start out with a blank canvas in terms of stats. (1 in everything) However, you are granted a far higher amount of starting XP, which allows you to fully flesh out your droid's traits. For example, you can put a ton of XP into Brawn (Strength) and Agility (Dexterity) and play a close-quarters combat oriented droid like a Commando Droid. Or, you can do the flipside and put a ton of points into Cunning and Intellect for something like a T-series. And of course you can balance out the stats to make your character a jack of all trades. To summarise, Droids in FFG are really fun to play, simply due to how customizable they are. I suspect you can even get built-in weapons, too.

    I think while yes post clone wars many were still active and didn’t obey the shutdown command, by now the empire had to have eliminated a large portion of them. If my memory serves me right then when the stormtroopers encountered the droids they mentioned a protocol meaning that the empire has already had issues with the leftover droids

    • @deauthorsadeptus6920
      @deauthorsadeptus6920 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, many were reactivated, there was even new CIS holdout on mustafar and many organic commanders quickly realised what was happening and attempted to fight back... only to be erased one by one by all of empire forces.

    T series droids seem like they should just kind of keep the battle going while a new organic moves in, but the ST seems like they could cover smaller scale battles entirely alone or even just command a full scale battle (maybe 2 of them)

    It is actually confirmed there where several Lucrehelk-class battleships (droid control ships) that participated in the Battle of Exegol (though I can't see any on screen). Now I have a theory that might be a bit of a stretch, but I believe that some battleships were piloted by an ST that refused to shut down. And I bet you ONE is piloted by Kalani.
    However, this is never confirmed.

    The T-series tactical droid is more suited for logistical support and tasks, if needed for front line the best place for them would be quarter master for fleets/command ships or ordnance support
    While the ST-tactical droid had great potential if more mass produced for all Confederacy battle fronts, no telling what the confederacy could have achieved if they had more ST droids more wide spread

    • @klaykid117
      @klaykid117 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      In my mind the T-Series arrogance is to stop them from working together which the St series didn't have if the CIS wasn't careful and made too many STs they could have actually had a Droid revolution on their hands where the economic factors to Droid production are put aside in favor of pure efficiency

    It really was a huge missed opportunity not bringing clone wars actors back for the last film. Droids and other aliens should've been included to show the reality that George had always wanted to paint: war is the stupid plot of powerful men to gain more power. Seeing them get back at palpatine for his manipulation and depravity would've been immensely satisfying.

  • @LukaWagner-ts8kf
    @LukaWagner-ts8kf หลายเดือนก่อน

    one thing that irritated me about the clone wars series is we never saw a single separatist victory, if they did win they would lose even more the next episode. The CIS was supposed to be winning the war in the end but it just never felt like it, i wish there was just one episode where the threat of a mechanical army felt real and its power came into play.

    Even basic tactical droids were quite good on a larger scale. Much like B1 droids, they were mediocre, flawed, but numerous. And they proved to be a force multiplier to existing models, a step above OOM commanders. For every battle the Republic won through tactical brilliance, Confederacy could theoretically overwhelm it in a few others with “good enough” units - there is no way that every Republic commander was a genius, and some could probably be more incompetent than TDs.
    Now add Super TDs that were even better than that and, well, the odds start to look not that good for the GAR.

    The series was set up in a way that the separatist couldn't be compentent which also means they where less intimidating. I think it can even be called the grievous effect cause he became the prime example of a villain that got hyped off screen. But when shown he was a incompetent coward in the Canon show.
    Same with the whole Separatist army...... In the beginning the Narrative wants to explain them as this big threat. But everytime they appear the good guys need to win.......... And then we as the audience get told again what a big threat they are in the next Arc.
    A lot of good concepts..... Bad execution
