"Adding to that, it also says Niman was made to suit the "modern Jedi". So, okay, I've established that Niman was the most widely practiced form of the PT. Now, I move onto the next point which is that Niman is probably one of the worst forms anyone could use."
😆
No, Advent, Niman was actaully a very good style to use, if mastered completely it could make the practitioner a very well-rounded swordsman indeed. The little-known fact about Jango killing Trebor Coleman, was that Mandalorians are actaully trained to time their shots through the defense of a lightsaber when fighting Jedi.
He used this technique which led to the defeat of the Jedi Master.
"Niman is the "diplomat's Form" (Insider), and actually doesn't focus on combat, instead it makes room for political attributes. So, I fail to see how that's more impressive and stunning than the New Jedi Order's form."
You fail to see it? 😆
At least the Jedi using Niman actaully know how to swing a lightsaber instead of acting like they're little leaguers.
"Now, you're going to tell me that the New Jedi Order is weak with sabers? Get a grip. "
Ya, you retard. You get a grip, your the one who dosen't even know what he's talking about. toot
"Prove it. Give me an actual quote that says "Kyp aimlessly swung his saber around". "
Read above, El Morono. 😛
"Slightly? It would've been a mass slaughter. NJO Luke had trouble taking down Shimmra. How can the likes of the most powerful Jedi of that era, Yoda, dream of doing that?"
Very carefully. Lol, no seriously, Shimmura was kind of retarded, if the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order went up against him, Yoda would emberess him. I mean, he was a tall YV with a big amphistaff.
Yoda would dodge his attacks and slice him open like a Thanksgiving Day turkey.
stretcher Poor Shimmura...
BTW, I liked your little book clippings, but I noticed somthing.
The Republic Army went up against Droidekas(Example). Even if groups of YV warriors went up against one of those, they would get holed and dropped. Seeing as how the fledgeling Republic Army was able to regroup and survive that kind of assault, I think it speaks for the fact that they'd have a fair chance against the YV.
Your clippings about their aftermath against the CIS say nothing about how the YV would defeat them.
"Now, even with two hundred thousand clones barely any Jedi survived, and all Niman users died. And as well, the Clone troopers lost thousands. We're talking about Yuuzhan Vong. "
Well, all the Niman users from Coruscant Temple died, or most anyway, they diden't all die out.
I'd be willing to bet only about like ten Jedi out of the entire era could even defeat more than one. We know the Niman users were practically wiped out at Geonosis alone, how are the Jedi and Republic forces, pre-Blockade going to stop the Vong? Who's armor is resistant to lightsabers, are unable to be affected by the Force (or highly resistant I should say), and have far superior weaponry?"
Actaully, I'd say the Jedi of the preqel era would be a decent match for the Vong. We are talking about fully and classically trained Jedi here.
Good point about the space battles, the Vong would probally take all of those, unless the Republic scientists came up with somthing.
The Jedi could find soft spots between the armour to hit, and the YV are immune to direct attacks from the Force, but if a Jedi, say, picked up an object with the Force and hurled it at them, it could still kill the Vong.
Kinda like the example with Dark Lord Sidious ripping a tree up and hurling it at a Slayer, crushing him to death. That kinda thing.
"The PT era would belong to the Yuuzhan Vong, as would everything that followed if we let it up to the PT forces. We also do know that no one was prepared for a war, do you recall that Binks had to gi. The Republic and Jedi forces wouldn't even know what hit them. And then, of course, trying to attack back would be futile in most cases."
Hmm, perhaps, but you never know. By the end of the Clone Wars against the CIS, the unprepared Republic Army was close to beating them. You never know, the PT armies had more advanced weaponry, we don't know exactly how it would have been utilised.
"So, we're talking about the Ancient Sith? Um, what exactly is your point, and how does it correlate to your argument? For one, the Sith of old have nothing to do with the PT, as the PT Jedi and Republic would be slaughtered horribly. It is noted, exactly, that they had to give "emergency powers" to Sidious as we know to announce the army on Kamino, they were not prepared for a war, and certainly not at all prior to the Blockade of Naboo. The Republic needed the clones or else they would've lost against the casual Separatist armies, who are not resistant to Force attacks, nor to a lightsaber."
True. Here's how it correlates.
The ancient Sith would have defeated the Vong, or at least stood a decent chance of doing so.
Their Sith Knights and Lords were all expertly trained for brutal warefare, so in a direct battle, a Sith Knight could take perhaps at least three YV, mabye more, mabye less. But its a nice estimate.
The Sith would have won the space battles if they could locate the YV armada and then have either Naga Sadow, or Exar Kun use the Force to ignite the star of the system its in, or a planet its next to, or hell, ignite the fleet. It would cripple most of the ships and scatter them.
Plus, I'd love to see Shimmura take on Marka Ragnos, assuming he's in this scenario as well.
Ragnos would literally make Shimurra his F*ck Slave. 😆
