?? Why name this death star destroyer ??

I would have to say (1 on 1) Mon Cal Cruiser

Most likely the Mon Cal Cruiser, yes. The Rebels aren't as heavily harmed, it must be said. Even Admiral Ackbar was having second thoughts about moving into firing range with an SD.

General vibe always is that the Imperial ships are better direct destructive machines but tend to have weak points.

All the analogy of them thinking it would be foolish to attack a battlestation the size of a small moon in a snubfighter and all...

what about the executor or eclipse SSD? could a cruiser take that down? 1 on 1 with either

on empire at war mon cal cruiser would blow on up

apparently according to Return of the Jedi, a single
a-wing crashing into the bridge of a stardestroyer can take it out just fine.

that was because its the weak point of the star destroyer

Empire of War is not Canon! They had huge Balance Issues, Rebels win Land Battle, Imperials Win Space battle(unless Mon Calamari's are in play, then the Imps crap themselves)

when the SD is kept busy I can destroy it within 2 minutes in my B-wing in Roque Squadron..

btw it costs me some lives...

If you are referring to the scene in Return of the Jedi to be fair they had like 3 Mon Cals (minus 1 or 2 due to the Death Star) against a huge fleet of Star Destroyers and a Super Star Destroyer. Odds weren't with them.

there is no1 to state that any of the EU books games etc are canon or at least i havnt heard any 1 official saying its canon

Admiral Ackbar wasn't having second thoughts. He stated quite clearly

"At that close range we won't last long against those Star Destroyers". Admiral Ackbar.
"We will last longer than we will against that Death Star, and we MAY just take A FEW of them with us." General Calrissian.

This quite clearly states that there was NO rebel ship capable of going one on one with a Star Destroyer. Even Lando acknowledged that it was only a possibility however slight, that they would be able to take one or two of them out of play.

True, But when taken into conjunction with Calrissians reply it clearly implies that they were no match for the Star Destroyers, not just because of the Death Star.

Remember, the Rebel fleet had no idea of the Death Star being operational when the Imperial Fleet came out of hiding. Admiral Ackbar was already ordering a retreat before the Death Star had fired it's first shot.

those guns near echo base could take out a star destroyer.

on battlefront? there are a lot of exeptions taken to make games better for the player, take KOTOR as an example.
