I'm starting to see why the CIS lost the war.

    They could have easily won, but Palpatine was canonically a human supremacist in his policies and saw the non-human majority of the CIS to be mere canon fodder

    They've lost the war because the control ship has been destroyed.

    Clone wars era battles happened almost exclusively at rock throwing range and frequently broke out into disorganized Melee combat. The idea of having snipers at all is impressive at their scale.

      If you ever try modding snipers into Doom you realize that snipers are a meme, literally no purpose.

          If you manage to do it, you realize sniper rifles are a meme. Slow firing, not efficient. The sniper droid was probably a better support unit with a machine gun equivalent instead of a real sniper meme rifle. Though it doesn't help that I modded a basic assault rifle weapon that kills you in a single burst.

    I think that had more to do with Taryakovsky's animation style. I fucking hate all Star Wars shit at this point but that show was PrepHoleino as fuck.

          The animated clonewars were peak kino. Greivous actually using his robot body to fight in ways normal fleshies couldn’t was really cool, shame it didn’t happen in the movies.

            A lot of media uses sound/texture/image libraries. Vidrel shows how doom used them but just about every game and movie uses them https://youtu.be/9bgFpss0YFE?si=aICARpx0BJyHTZWw

      But of course like everything even tangentially related to Star Wars, they had to go back and fuck it up by "reanimating" it.

      clear recoil, evidence of plasma emission (a 4th state of matter, hence opposing force)

        That's the droid leading bullets in ever direction that the target could go, since the distance is at least 100ft, the light will at least take some time to hit it's target. - The Star Wars lore explaining why Star Wars makes sense.

    I was playing the Battlefront II '05 mod Saga Edition, I guess that's why sniper rifles in that mod are essentially just BARs.

    I have a conspiracy that Filoni is going to revive the CIS in his canon.

    Supposing the Confederation rises from the ashes, how would you reorganize their military? Assume your threats are pirates, Imperial warlords, the New Republic, and maybe some other minor very minor powers.

    The droid army was just there to cause misery and mayhem, to draw the Jedi out and push them into compromising their values. It was there as an excuse for Palpatine to consolidate political power and excuse the Republic's militarization. It was never meant to win lasting military victory. It was a droid army so it could be easily powered off and disposed of and not be a lingering threat to the New Order the way that living militants like Saw Guererra were. This is why Ryloth was such a trouble spot, they resisted both the presence of the CIS and the Republic, and played an early role in forming the Rebel Alliance because their resistance transferred to the Empire immediately when the New Order was instituted.

      This explanation only goes so far, because the actual operation of the droid army requires everyone to be retarded, not "kind of dim" not "inexperienced" but completely retarded.

      And the fact that no one on the other side realizes how fucking goofy the situation is means they are also retarded.

      If Palpatine can ensorcell half the Galaxy, he wouldn't have needed the war to begin with.

        How so?
        They were a legitimate threat.
        The retarded part is that Palpatine managed to convince the CIS and Trade Federation to team up without being personally involved, like if Osama bin Laden had been a random anon talking to terrorists via voice mail. Also that he could cover up the massive spending that would have been necessary to create the Republic's clone army.

        Siphoning a couple % off a galactic budget - now that's magic.
