Factory ships like this also aided construction of ground vehicles and ships across the galaxy. Imperial efficiency at its finest. Long Live the Empire!

I love the ship because it doesnt look like ur classic imperial ship, but still feels like it belongs to the empire, which i can more than say for for other imperial ships in legends lore.

I was interested in this ship, too, because it was different but still powerful and large enough to be a dreadnought 👍

The Arc Hammer is a great piece of lore that I think should have been expanded on.

@@jayburn00 it can. its a superweapon vehicle alongside the bellator and executor. and while you can only make 1 as the empire compared to 3 of the other two dreadnoughts. its basically a TIE fighter factory that spits them out in insane numbers.

More of a mobile research base armed to the level of a dreadnought, just looking at it it sort of reminds me of the refinery the Nostromo was hauling about.

That arc hammer art is an amazingly cool looking design, but I think it's strayed way too far from the design we saw in game. The in-game ship had much smoother side plating without the excessive greebles.

“MOFF GIDEON, YOU HAVE BEEN REINFORCED BY THE OG DARK TROOPERS, AND NOW WE SHALL BE RID OF THE REBEL ALLIANCE ONCE AND FOR ALL! LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE!”I’m pretty sure Ark Hammer was rebuilt from an earlier ship as a factory ship. it looks very different from other imperial ships, very industrial and modular. I’m guessing it’s possibly originally at least a CEC super freighter?

@KrisHandsome 3 ай бұрын

He definitely didn’t build them there. He just had a bunch of them on his ship. Similarly, every star destroyer doesn’t manufacture its whole air wing. Sienar makes the TIEs and they’re shipped to them

Gideon was trying to run covert and lean. A light cruiser was actually more appropriate and easier to run/maintain.

@NineWorldsFromDrew 3 ай бұрын

Have to admit, the specs for the Arc Hammer really smack of schoolboy boasting - bigger than a Star Destroyer, but almost as powerful as a dreadnought? It’s rather canon-breaking 😆 -at least in the sense of Dark Forces ever having once been “canon” 🤷🏼 It does kind-of make sense, mind. Considering such a project was meant to be so secretive, yet so critical, I expect everyone in charge of it probably viewed it as a potential weakness for the factory ship to have any kind of escort, so they had to avoid that. And it had to be well-defended, because they already figured that the Rebellion could throw at this thing anything from a fleet, to an elite starfighter squadron, to a farm-boy in an X-Wing, and manage to take it down in a space battle - which would just be embarrassing, for a project that’s designed for ground invasions. I guess they would have figured, as long as the Arc Hammer had no weaknesses, then neither would the Dark Troopers.

@sonofeyeabovealleffoff5462 3 ай бұрын

😂 Pfft. I prefer that old school Expanded Universe canon over current canon. Also it was a heavily converted former star dreadnought into a mobile starship factory. Nothing about this is lore breaking.

@NineWorldsFromDrew 3 ай бұрын

@@sonofeyeabovealleffoff5462 A converted star dreadnought also makes sense. I do just find some Legends stuff a bit power-gamey. If anything, i could say it’s exactly what influenced Starkiller base, and the Final Order star destroyers, because the writers still insisted on this same formula of “We must have the bad guys controlling a superweapon, but EVER MORE POWERFUL than the Death Star!”. By comparison, Order 66 and Palpatine’s coup had way more chilling tones to it, for all the flaws that episodes 1, 2 and 3 had. Star Wars has plenty of good ideas. But however original or derivative they might be, they just need to be applied in the right way.
