Interest Check: Covenant vs. Galactic Empire

[z]

Technically the Emperor has a "Guard" of Sith he trained personally to hunt Jedi

[darthsloan]

hmmm touche, but they arn't formal Sith.

[z]

Kinda

[darthsloan]

nope.... look up Rule of Two

[z]

Read it, and Sidious broke that rule on many occasions. He trained Greveious, Dooku, and Vader. Dooku was around the same time as GG, even though Grevious wasn't technically a Jedi of any kind.

They are "Unoffical Sith" and even then there is always the "Shadow Guard" which ARE Sith, but aren't counted due to their numbers and below average Force abilities

[darthsloan]

ok ok... you win. Though grievous was trained by dooku.

[z]

He was trained by both, Dooku just trained him much more

[darthsloan]

-shrugs- true

[darthsloan]

please.... this is an interest check.... be a little more mature, please.

[Dufflepud]

Meh, I'd like the matchup more if it were covenant vs Khalani, but whatevs

Anyways, I'd like to join! I'll be using my Mercenary captain, if that's alright.

[darthsloan]

sweet.... which side? UNSC, Covenant, or Empire?

[Dufflepud]

My Skirmisher mercenary captain would be covenant...

[darthsloan]

can you give me a link to your profile?

[Dufflepud]

It's the middle profile in my signature.

[darthsloan]

Sorry XD... considered it added

[Dufflepud]

No problem

[darthsloan]

hmmm so we give the imperials more ships then?

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Name: Darik Sothar
Rank: Dark Jedi Apprentice
Position: Sith on-board.
Appearance: Human, as in two legs, two arms, one nose... you get the picture. His hair is a pitch black that gleams when his light saber is ignited. His skin is a sickly pale and his dull grey eyes hold a scarred nightmarish past.
Light Saber: Dual bladed red light saber.
Personality: Obeidiant and confused are two words that can describe Darik. He is a very emotional being, for you have to be one to tap into the full potential of the Dark side. He is very flighty and unpredicitble but will always follow his commanders into the fray.
Biography: Darik was born on Naboo, witnessed the funeral of Padema, and had a long linieage of Jedi that one would be proud of... unless an entire empire branded them as vilians to be put to death. That is why Darik's father rushed back to Naboo after the jedi temple was attacked to take his son into hiding, little did he know that imperial agents beat him to it and luered him into a trap where he was exicuted along with his wife infront of Darik. The boy would of been killed too if it wasn't for the gread that brought one of the agents to bundle Darik up and send him off to the emporer to be trained as a jedi hunter, which came at ease since he was force sensitive. Now he is onboard the Leviathin as it ships out to inspect a strange artifact.

November, I would definitely give the Imperials a numerical advantage. You gotta remember that the Covenant outguns the Imperials--in space at least. Be interesting when one group boards the other, because I honestly can't say who outguns who on the ground.

Hmm...depends who's fighting on the ground.

[Dufflepud]

Normal covenant troops>normal Imperial troops, Sith=Sangheili swordsmen (Sangheili have size, strength, and armor advantage, sith have force advantage), covenant ships>>>>>>>>>>>Imperial ships due to superior weapons, shield technology, and VASTLY superior fighter craft. (Seraph=100 ft with shielding, Tie fighter=20ft with no shielding. Hmmmmmm.)

[jack]

Duffle, you gotta remember that normal Imperial troops are not the garrison for Star Destroyers and other ships. Imperial Stormtroopers are the garrison of ships, and are better than ODSTs.

[Dufflepud]

No, stormtroopers are not better than ODSTs. They recieved inferrior training in marksmanship and tactics to the clone troopers of the old republic. And besides, I would not say that clone troopers are better than ODSTs either. Also, a single sangheili or jiralhanae can easily cut through a fireteam of ODSTs, so that point is moot.

[Spartan 999]

ARC troopers were like ODST's.

[Dufflepud]

Exactly.

[jack]

That's not true at all. Stormtroopers received SUPERIOR training to those of any Imperial trooper, who received training slightly less on par than clone troopers. Stormtroopers are far superior to ODSTs. And yes, the Jiralhanae/Sangheili point is moot.

[SuperCommando]

You gotta admit though, the movies make Stormtroopers look pretty incompetent...

[Dufflepud]

Yes, superior to the training of IMPERIAL TROOPS, but inferrior to the training of CLONE TROOPERS, as the clone troopers were trained by Mandalorians, and with a greater emphasis on marksmanship.
