"How to fight the subjugator just use fighters" so just like the clone wars episode

Lucrehulks aren't ever an issue for me to defeat. I just get sick of fighting them in what seems like every space battle.

Step 1: have a mandator

The lucrehulk carriers are easy to kill with capital ships couse they have very little in terms of anti ship weapons. I think that people probably had most problems with the lucrehulk battleship

I really appreciate people for making mods like this, a dedicated clone wars themed rts game is like a wet dream. I really do appreciate it

Yeah, against the donuts it really helps to keep your ships focused on one side and minimize the damage they can do. But Republic ships in early game/era really really still feel painfully outmatched. I've found if I had to just be willing to take several losses in most major battles or I never got anywhere. But once I started getting Venators and Victories it got a lot better.

I find that space battles are pretty well balanced, the republic has Praetors and Mandators, maybe also Secutors and SDs depending on the path you choose. I would like to see more usefulness for the lucrehulk battle-carrier compared to the other CIS carriers (either less popcap taken or better firepower). Ground wise the only unit that seems out of place is the A6 Juggernaut, the worst thing is fighting doomstacks from them mid-late game. Out of that the gameplay is really pleasant on Admiral difficulty, for both factions in my case. The new starbases and defense systems are really a step forward, the GCs feel way more dinamyc.

i tend to favor hitting Fleets that have a Lucrehulk with Triple Invincibles. They have an insane missile fire rate and good enough shields and health to tank whatever damage the Lucrehulks can do, and also have good enough Point Defence to deal with Fighters. The constant barrage of missiles is seriously op

If you have something that can tank the damage output of a Lucrehulk battleship, use it. Something like a Praetor, supported by Accs, Venators, VSDs or, if you have them, the early Imperial Designs you can get from KDY.

I just saved and quit bed an all that. Taken most of the core minus a few doom stacks. Got to tech level 3 didn't loose a battle and nor did ever loose more than a handful of ship. Created a transport bridge to Kamino. Releasing Anakin and Obi Wan's southern fleet. Things are going well. Built my 1st Mandator took out Grievous and Dooku caught him in orbit. So far so good I'm loving the campaign. Well done with the mod it seems super stable so far. Last of all thank you for all the hard work you put into the mod. It plays great. Looks great and its super stable.

I've used this tactic on the defense to great effect with my Dreadnoughts, on Admiral. On Republic worlds with a few Dreads protecting them. and a decent shipyard that can spawn more dreads. The clankers tend to send a Lucrehulk, and a couple frigates. The thing is that Lucrehulks are slow as fuck, allowing me to pick off their support ships, and fighters before engaging with the big boy. Then I simply put the Dreddies into one spot, and hammer away at its shields "with the re-spawning ones at the front" I tend to lose 1 or 2 re-spawning ones doing this, but they come back quick. I've defeated several Lucrehulks in one system, without using anything but the starting Dreddies, with this tactic.

I’ve found that the battle carriers and auxiliary lucrehulks aren’t that much of an issue. Yeah, they’re tanky and have fighters galore but their anti-capital weaponry is so lacking that you kinda can just ignore them and focus on other ships. The battle variants are scary though, since if you don’t have something to tank it’s damage like an ISD, Invincible or Praetor it’s going to chew through your smaller ships real quick.

I tend to bring in a mixed fleet and assign corvettes and frigates to 'guard' my larger line cruisers. That way when I move my larger ships up the corvettes and frigates move with them while still protecting them.

Thank you so much. The mod is pretty confusing for me and this helps so much

This is just what I've been waiting for for a while now, thanks. However, is there a chance we could get a video breaking down the various weapon types and their effectiveness vs various targets? I know that lasers are good against fighters and turbo-lasers are for larger ships, but how do missiles factor in. And how might a fighter/bomber heavy fleet compare to a dedicated firepower fleet, and why? Anyway, love the video; I hope you put out more like this.

Really appreciate this video and looking forward to this series covering all other factions of thrawns revenge as well

I figured out that lucrehulks ... all of them don't have the range to combat smaller but heavy in firepower ships, I used an acclimator to shell a lucrehulk from inside a nebula and it wasn't able to fire back since it had awkward tracking and the turbolasers could not reach the ship. I sometimes do this tactic with a victory Also the CIS does feel a bit broken in space combat, the venator and victory pale in comparison to the bulwarks, providences, and army of drednoughts in the galaxy. The most basic tactic is to use a lucrehulk as a sponge and have to munificent cruisers and recuscants stay behind it and some providences while they all soak the damage, the munificents with their firepower would literally wreck the enemy On the ground is a different story, B1s suck compared to clones due to their bad accuracy. While the republic does have some problems when dealing with a transport or Magna droid, the AT-TE is just a pain and the Juggernaut A6 is just unfair, so both sides balance out in some ways. Although the confederacy seems to have a much larger advantage compared to the republic, space is almost unwinable when even 1 battle carrier is present and ground invasions wouldn't matter since its impossible to start them, however Jedi and stealth teams always work and are impossible to counter

Could you do a version of this with some of the slightly lower firepower factions earlier? (Factions like the Empire of the Hand, etc)

Wow, this is SUPER helpful, thank you!

"We're gonna take it on with 5 Acclimators. This is more than you really need..." *Me loosing 3 venators and 4 acclimators like every time there is a Lucrehulk in the battle* But strictly speaking though, taking on a Lucrehulk alone in an isoltated scenario is quite different from fighting one that is part of a larger fleet

Got recently invaded by a separatist fleet in mandalore that had one of those hulk battleships I lost but i sent all my ships on a suicide to kill it It was an expensive loss but 10/10 fun battle

Ever consider making corvettes like gunboats, and putting them in 3 or 4 ship squadrons?

If you put some clone commandos in an acclamator you only need one.

Great video ideas. I find your mods quite challenging which I love but also get crushed sometimes by the AI. Cant wait for more guides for thrawns and maybe ator. Keep up the good work

Yessss I love this!!! More guides please!

You did a VERY good job at this, and I have you to thank for it. I also have a recommendation that you add DSD1 DwarfSpider Droids and repaint all AATs the Confederacy controls to their CIS paintjob like the STAP and MTT. What do you think? I also think you should make Skirmish Battles more manageable, like pick what starting Tech there is and adding a larger credit start like 50000 on some if not most other mods. You could also add the A6 Juggernaut Tanks to the Skirmish Battles and add Heroes to the space Skirmish Battles. I just wanted to point out these things that you could do to make the mods you've made even better. Not for me, but for EVERYONE. Keep up the good work! I can't WAIT to see what the next update will be!

I will say the only thing I wish this mod had was a weapon boost or a broadside ability similar to the one in republic at war for the venator

Can you do a video on From the Ground Up how to get more capital ships

Nice job. Loving this mod.

I would love to see a CIS Version for the mandator!

Thank you Corey

carracks are pretty heavy hitters for their price. if you have a couple of beefy ships in the front (like invincibles) and a good screen against bombers then the carracks just live forever and deal a pretty solid amount of damage against anything that isnt a fighter. tbh you could probably win with just a big fleet of carracks and corvettes against almost anything short of a SSD

I use invincibles as siege breakers I take 3 put them in first and let them pelt the enemies biggest ships with their concussion missiles and then I let my smaller ships like dreadnoughts caraks arquitens aclimators ect go in at and deal with the smaller stuff one of my favourite tactics is to take a wolf pack arqiutens and speed them around as glass cannons stripping the shields of bigger ships while my levelers and dreadnoughts take away hard points

Love this!

Ty for these tips!

Corey, please make the Secutor a non-order 66 ship for era 3/4/5. It is just a fat Venator with more hangars. Instead, make a weaker version of the current Paetor I as described in the tool-tip, a Ruusan Reformation Compliant Praetor I. Then have that ship be upgrade-able like the Mandator. But only a few can be built, maybe 3 or 4. Then with order 66 you can build them straight out like now.

I just use any ship with missiles and order them to take down the heaviest guns first, no point bothering with fighter supremacy when your fighting 2+ Lucrehulks and escorts in more or less most battles. To beat the Subjugator just throw a cheap ship at it until you can bring reinforcements closer to it then just throw ships around it so it cant hit them all with it's big ion gun.

Has i said in another video i love the Munifex. I am not a big fan of the Invincible but its a life saver early game. My Mandator fleet is a Acclamator fleet with a few Cap ships just in case.

Also I hope in the future you make an Old Republic themed mod 😁

just a question who voiced what ships and/or ground units in FOTR?

when in doubt have 2 hypervelocity guns per planet

So what abou the Arquitens ?

There is another non-canon republic ship I would love to see in-game but can't remember what it's called, I remember seeing it in mods a decade ago. It was the size of a Venator but only with like 1 bomber, 3 fighters and geared toward ship-ship combat with a bit more HP and only a single bridge instead of two. It was called the Bombard or something like that.

also corey:surrounds them lucs

Hey Corey! I recently downloaded FOTR and playing with my friends we always seem to have desync/crash issues when playing on lan or internet. Is there a known solution to this issue? Otherwise we LOVE the mod!!

Always struggle with the donuts

please do with CIS too

I feel like my anti fighter ships like the corvettes just end up shooting at capital ships and not my fighters is there a way I can set them to just target fighters

I hate these bastards. The AI loves these things and it makes it even harder when there are providence and recusent dreadnaughts thrown in while I’m using acclamators or Dreadnaught heavy cruisers.

The venator is weaker than a providence but a Victory is stronger than a providence so I have a mix of Venators and Victory and support ships like Acclamators and light cruisers and pelta fleet tenders

do more of those videos

Wheres the CIS version of this video, Corey?

Can you make a video that gives a understanding of the era system, I don't have a clue about how it works

Hey does anyone know how to turn on the feature where it shows the green line of where your ships are gonna go?

I don’t ever remember dreadnaughts being converted into carriers. Can someone plz point me towards where this happened in the lore?

Hey @Corey Loses When is version Fall of the republic 1.0 going up on moddb?

Do any ships cause travel speed on galactic conquest map to be slower?

"lucrehulks are...... round." So, they're just like a Pallas cat?

lucrehulk are easy to kill, no problem. Annoying is, when the KI comes with 25 Bullwark II ships... and i did order 66 but i cant build star destroyers... Kuat just spawns some time some of them...

so basicly a lucrehulk is easily defeated by 6 venators so put them in front of the lucrehulk for min damage to own ships

Is there a ground based republic guide

i really like the new update the only thing i dont like is now you only have 200 popcap in space battles :( i really liked the 300 can you maby make somthing for poeple who's pc can handel 300 cap :D

I have a bug in my games, the eras are not progressing, also i get no missions. Seems like scripts just broke, the only thing working is picking palpa or mon mothma...is it normal or what?

Im starting to believe I’ve been playing wrong

How do I get Yulaaren? I cant find him

Bruh, a common Lucrehulk will have a lot of backup lol. 5 Acclimators is not enough. Also, I think all Venators should have that SPHA-T laser to it. Republic At War did that so I think it should be that way for this one

how do you change your camera angle ?

I really prefer DOCX dreadnaughts

I've found the best way to beat Lucrehulks is to Overwhelm them... or use a Praetor/Mandator Edit: But the Praetor still struggles imo

Or have Kuat and rendilli pump out a praetor a week each!
