Clones vs. Droids

[b]OP: Which one is better.

That is in no way asking for a winner in any speculative battle. It's asking for an opinion on their attributes. I'm sorry, but you're clearly dumb.[/b]

His (hereatlast's) second post is indicative that he was referring to the droid constructs of the Prequel Trilogy as opposed to some type of unknown model, made up from Se7in's mind (which was apparent, in my eyes, to begin with).

There would be absolutely no point in comparing a droid utilizing its peak possibilities to a clone trooper or any other type of soldier, as it's clear the living being would severely lack in comparison. The explanation for which wouldn't need to go longer than a sentence at best.

"Droids don't need to eat, sleep, fight forever, could be engineered to be strategical geniuses, more powerful weapons, etc."

It would make for a rather dull thread. Either way, to call Subjekt "dumb" based on your interpretation of the TC's post is rather dumb, especially when the TC clarified which specific type of droids and clones to compare (which is what we should adhere to, since we didn't make the thread).

Edit:

Albeit, Subjekt did take Se7in's post out of context, as he (Se7in) made it explicitly clear he was arguing the possibilities of the droids. Nonetheless, what I said still stands.

And I understood and acknowledged that, I just went on to say that's not what the thread was about, then it escalated from there. However, I've said my piece and I'm done now. I answered the question that was asked. But again, i DO see where Se7in was coming from, I just don't think it was what he asked. (not directed at Advent - general statements.)

No Subjekt. You were right, plain and simple. I didn't read the post and therefore took this post completely out of context.

clones is best, if you destroy the ships that is controlling those droids a whole army will shut down like what happen in phantom menace.

that wasn't really the point of the thread. it was more about which is technically better in battle.

Droids are be just as, if not more efficient. One has to understand that the Droid armies we see in Star Wars are usually constructed of cheap models, made with only one advantage in mind; numerical superiority. I believe that given the proper amount of resources and effort into their creation, they could be superior to Clones. Imagine a soldier immune to the effects of emotion and psychology, able to perform at peak efficient at all times, never becomes fatigued, can fire at unheard of rates with calculated accuracy, can see the enemy regardless of any sight adherences, will unfalteringly sacrifice itself on command, and make choices within thousandths of a second. Such are the capabilities of Droids, but they're usually never given such abilities because of previously mentioned points.

i agree with this. True that clones have the ability to think as a sentient being. However Droids like said above....do NOT sleep. Nor do they EVER disobey order do to the fact that they dont have emotions to question judgement. Droids can programmed for the same manuvers that clones train to do. Not to forget that batallions of droids can be produced in less time to grow a number of clones. The training process is instant for a droid. Clones CAN have that knowledge implanted but from what we have seen...they do training.

HOWEVER to go against the droids....they do have a severe weakness......Signal Loss from the main ship.

SO lets see....
Droids- Overwelming numbers
Droids- Completely Loyal with no emotions getting in the way
Droids- No Sleep, No need for Stamina
Droids- Maintanence needed regularly(a bad for droids)

They way i see it.....an infantry against infantry only battle droids should always win.... though put in other styles of battles....that can change the tide to clones
