The ONLY Major Separatist Ship in the Clone Wars that WASN’T Entirely Crewed by Droids 

Dolores would not hold back against Grievous.

Add maul as well, now there's a threesome on kenobi

@@Nick-em3qj Phrasing… 😏

@@stingerjohnny9951ayo

I was already sold on the idea, but your comment makes it so much better. "You're demoted." "From wha--" CRUNCH!!! "From this pathetic existence you dare call a life! Hahahah--*cough, cough!*"

@@muttproductions2536 I imagined General Grievous saying that.

@@muttproductions2536 Somebody get that man a ricola

So much so even Grievous respected him? Im almost speechless

I guess he was the Ultimate Chad of the Neimodian species lol.

i wish there was a jedi neimoidian

my head canon is he's a sociopath and actually biologically incapable of being afraid

I think there was, donkeykong 64 2. I just can't seem to know their names and eras.

Hi losing my patience I'm me

Grievous executing his bridge crew: Anakin: I like that!

I could genuinely hear that in his voice XD

elaborate

The metaphor “invisible hand” originates from the economist Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations. It suggests that a free-market, through the competition of self-interested parties, will improve society as a whole. This competition between the self-interested parties keeps the quality of goods and services high and prices low, guiding the market as if it were an “invisible hand.” A few other Separatist ships use a capitalist naming scheme: -Lucrehulk Droid Control Ship - Lucre=ill gotten money -Munificent Star Frigate - Munificent=generous sun of money -Recusant Light Destroyer - Recusant=someone who refuses to comply with regulation -Providence Dreadnought - Providence=capital of Rhode Island and one of the first cities in the U.S. to industrialize

​@@Kip450Well, this was informative.

I had to do a double take for a sec because it looked very blocky

@@jimbothegymbro7086 I was playing the game at the time too, glitch in the matrix moment

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed space engineers

I acc paused it and looked at the comments just for that

A Captain goes down with his ship? Nah man, the ship goes down with the Captain, Grevious.

his ego was just that dense

Well, it was Captain Needa who commanded the Venator that broadsided the Invisible Hand. Needa was always a gigachad of the Republic and Imperial fleets.

...That is impossible to imagine.

A Venator needs 7,400 crew to operate at full capacity. almost 8.2 times more than the invisible hand.

Organics, especially clones, can be demanding.

Liberation theme music rising in the background...

I dare say that was the majority of them. As the Clone Army was under 4 million at most. It would be impossible for all Venators to be exclusively crewed by Clones. Assuming that 4000 Venators were in use at the height of the conflict... Each would require 9400 Clones (7400 crew and 2000 embarked Troopers). Do the math and you'd get 37.6 Million or 29.6 Million without embarked Troopers. Even assuming a Skeleton crew of 1000 Clones per ship would require 4 Million Clones to man (Or literally the entire Clone Army). Unless the Republic had hundreds of millions or billions of Clones. It would be impossible to man the full Republic Navy with just Clones. Therefore there must have been an overwhelming amount of Non Clones in the Navy. Reason why we don't see this in TCW? Same reason the Imperial crew all looked the same in Rebels... Making unique CGI models is expensive... And the producers underestimated how many Clones would actually be needed to be an effective fighting force in a Galaxy spanning conflict while also having enough to serve in less glorious but important logistical positions like mechanics, Naval crewmen, medical personnel, and literally anything other than basic infantry.

I was just about to suggest this ship

We do see a bunch of other Life Pods fling off the ship, which might mean that some of the Naimodian's escaped

@@darthahsoka3498That was Grievous launching all the escape pods.

@@rugops6549Quite possible though that Dofine may have survived in the forward part of the Invisible Hand when it crashed to the grounds of Coruscant.

in legends the invisible hand ion engine was manufactured by Nubia Star Drive,inc.

Poetic justice in one of its most finer moments... as Rhinox from Beast Wars: Transformers' series finale said, *"For everything that ever was..."*

He flew in the vacuum of spce and survived

To be fair, the Providences have droids in them.

That was purely to get as many people into the Emperor's war machine as possible.

@@labby2 Don't forget that most CIS ships were crew solely by droids, so it's extremely likely that their ships would also be heavily automated. Why have large crew quarters along with the associated facilites to support orgainic crews when you can place another turbolaser/shield emmiter in its place? Driods don't need even a quarter of the living space that organic cews need.

Alot of man power and people that needed jobs in the empire.

They automated very little. Even the republic automated very little during the war. Venator compliments aren't hugely off from Imp numbers. Though the number that are pilots and deck/flight crew are highly skewed in what jobs were done.

That Needa, or A Needa? 'Cos I recall he had quite a wide family with lots of Naval service, at least in legends...

​@@Melody_RaventressIt was him. I guess Vader must have carried the grudge during all these years for Needa nearly killing him, Obi-Wan and Palpatine that day.

@@mayeuldelaunay4058but he did accept his apology

Rimshot!

In the early 2000s Dark Horse Comics run, the Rebels used a Providence that appeared to have been refitted by the Mon Calamari with a kind of winged shell added around the aft hull that contained extra engines. While the name of it was kind of lame (Rebel One), I really liked that design and I wish it'd be brought back into canon.

@@RedXlV Well that shows the faithlessness and hypocrisy of Disney and their egotisticism to rewrite everything in their profane image defiling the series.

Lots of the neimodians were old mans and alins who don't have any combat experience. What do yoy want?

CDs, although in Legends, they probably don't exist. Also, we talking basic SBDs or Republic Commando uber-SBDs?

Gunray wasn’t betrayed by Darth Sidious. Dooku just told Obi Wan that to earn his trust, but it was a lie. Gunray did not run to Dooku for help after the Naboo blockade ended in failure for the federation. It was actually due to the machinations of Darth Sidious that Gunray was able to avoid any legal repercussions for the blockade of Naboo. Gunray was put on trial at least 3 times according to Padmé in the canon novel Queen’s Shadow, and was either acquitted or merely slapped on the wrist. Had Darth Sidious not been intervening, the entire trade federation would have been restructured if not completely torn down by the Republic supreme courts, and Gunray was able to maintain his position as Viceroy because a year before the phantom menace the members of the trade federation directorate have been assassinated, and Gunray stacked the now vacant directorate with neimoidian loyalists who were sycophants and would do anything to keep the neimodian faction of the federation in charge of its executive branch.

@@SarastistheSerpent you forget Governor Sio Gribble (white bearded character in TPM/AOTC) mentioned Nute Gunray was put through four Trials by the Supreme Court and still got away with it. You’re probably correct in the rest but I just meant it wasn’t clear in the films. Outside material helps. You’re also correct in that Dooku was lying (or mixing the truth with lies) to get Obi Wan to join him by any means. It’s just unclear how much is true, makes it better imo

@@user_name_redacted true. But it would have be beneficial. Combine that with the seemingly infinite number of droids, there Republic who have been overwhelmed.

What about Thrawn's flagships over the course of his lives in both Legends and Disney Canon?

Whaaat?

Yikes.

That's what the Recusant class light destroyer was. It's not that convenient, there's not much room for creativity and improvisation, which can be vital in battle. Without mentioning the whole thing can be hacked, which is what a group of smugglers did in the Dark Lord novel. Could be useful as support craft, which I guess was the role of the ship at the end of the day.

Um, TCW was made before Disney even bought Star Wars

That's true, it was made before Disney bought it. But Disney made it part of it's official Cannon along with the movies and none of the rest of Legends Clone Wars material.
