Very true but flood= hive mind/animalistic mind: even a droid can merc vast populations of creatures
English
-
The flood are anything but primitive if we're talking Forerunner-Flood war. They were able to hack and take over Mendicant Bias, one of the two most powerful AI that the Forerunners ever built. Taking over battle droids would require damn near zero effort
-
Perhaps but you have to infect each independantly
-
True indeed, but cant a droid's system be hacked or shutdown. Especially by a smart AI
-
Yup but thats where clones + the empire come in. With their troops. Also IG88 by himself almost hacked and destroyed the entire death star but was stopped by R2-Q5(an astro mech built by the empire) in his attempt. There is also: the shadow troops and guards, imperial inquisitors, dark troopers, dark jedi, sith acolytes, emperor's hand, the bounty hunter cadre, and starkiller. So they have quite a few ELITE troops and units in SWU

I dont know what will happen if a charged plasma pistol shot hits a lightsaber

-
A lightsaber has been accepted as a concentrated beam of plasma contained in a magnetic field with some extra properties, A plasma pistol's plasma bolts or pulses are also contained in a magnetic field, the fields would repel each other so just like a blaster bolt pretty much
-
You cant tell me a scarab will be the same tho
-
Man, i thought i was on to something
-
Smart AIs can also hack into ships(even alien ones) Besides Spartans(and the diffrent generations of spartans) there are also ODST, Hunters (and scarabs), Brute cheiftans, Elites, Honor guards,( even the prophets have weapons), and Arbiter.
-
Edited by DarthBrando: 9/1/2015 12:49:11 AMYea im aware of those things ya just mentioned. Dark troopers are quite a bit MORE formidable than hunters tho and dont have that orange weakness spots, their armor is made of PHRIK and is impenetrable to blaster fire or lightsaber slashes and they can fly and have a proton cannon with concussion missles: starship weapons (talking dark troopers phase 3 not the phase zeros) and the dark jedi/ sith acolytes are roughly 1/4-1/3 of starkillers potential capacity battle wise only quite a bit more experienced. Star killer could end an arbiter or spartan with one glance and a hand wave tho lol
-
Individually it could happen, but a squad of spartans or even ODST should do the trick
-
Scarab, thats the tank right? Also starkiller could force maelstrom and lightning 4-8 targets at once (lift them up shock them blast them very far away and even then cause them to explode) all at the same time. In clone wars TV show, Anakin alone shows how easy a jedi can wipe a tank out, let alone the part where yoda is ambushed by 3 of them and an entire COLUMN of battle droids.
-
Scarabs are somewhat bigger than the CIS tanks, not to mention the uber scarab. I also think they can fire from a distance.
-
Yea a tank the size of a building is still a tank tho, the octuptra droid tank was something like 3-5 stories tall, in the movie release of the initial clone wars tv sho ani takes out 2 quite quickly. In ESB luke takes out an AT AT with a lightsaber and a large explosive charge Some of the scarabs are much larger yes but same principals apply: A squad of phase 3 dark troopers with their superior mobility and starfighter cannons could take one out
-
Alrighty then, just bring in a covi ship to glass whatever is on the surface and there you go
-
Thats what the death star, its armada of star destroyers, couple dozen super star destroyers are there to defend the system for
-
Please, you just said that the igg-thingy hack and nearly destroyed the deathstar. So no doubt a few smart AIs can do the same and follow through with all the other ships. If a few alphabet ships can destroy it, how hard can it be.
-
The x wings caught the death star before it unloaded even a fraction of its on board armada, the ig88 was stopped by ONE LONE ASTROMECH there are a few hundred thousand on board, so yea not saying the network in impenetrable but certainly pretty sophisticated. Tarkin underestimated the rebel's offensive capabilities, so through blind ambition and arrogance he lost.
-
If ig88 nearly detroyed it, then surely aleast some of the capabilities of the deathstar can be crippled(defensive or offensive ), same going for the destroyers, and a few well timed MAC cannons can then take out the deathstar.
-
Edited by DarthBrando: 9/1/2015 2:23:53 AMDeath star is ray shielded and has like a few KM thick of special density alloy blast/impact armor. Ig88 is a one of a kind assassin android who killed his programmer after he was turned on. Each droid an astromech has their OWN AI and there are a few hundred thousand on the death star. Star destroyers shields must be dropped FIRST otherwise any incoming projectile with less than 1/3 the mass of the ship WONT get through the shield.
-
Each droid has its own AI? Man, the logic plague is gonna have a field day
-
They arent networked unless that droid happens to be plugged into that network: Androids are standalone non networked systms After the battle of naboo even the trade federation made their battle droids non network linked
-
The droids have to give and receive broadcasts to give and receive orders, ergo the logic plague/Ancillas,Smart AIs could infiltrate them.
-
No they dont, in star wars, droids recieve orders the same way people do; by holonet broad cast over a coms link that IS NOT integrated into their on board OS systems.
