No...

'Kay-p.

Happy?

Fairly.

Then in battle, your primary target would be the ESD. Destroy that ship and the fleet loses coordination. Was the Chimmera a ESD? By the way Gideon, thanks for the info where I can get stats on The Empire's fleet.

Wookieepedia probably. And the Chimaera was an ISD, it was at Endor.

Ah, there we go. Wookieepedia offers references to other ESD's from 3-4 ABY. The passage: During the early years of the Galactic Civil War, several other Executor-class ships were built and fielded. A Rebel strike destroyed an Executor-class ship, upgraded with cloaking technology, while still under construction at Fondor in 3 ABY.[41] Another Star Dreadnaught with cloaking capability, the Terror, was already operational by 3 ABY.[42] The Vengeance lead a task force around this time.[43] Towards the end of Palpatine's glory days in 4 ABY, other Executors were noted as well. The Guardian was tasked with protecting Coruscant,[44] the Annihilator served in close vicinity to Kuat,[45], the Reaper led Scourge Squadron on its patrols in the Outer Rim Territories[46] and the Brawl was given to Admiral Zsinj by Palpatine himself.[47]

I wuld just like to note that the Tyranid would wipe out the entire Imperial, CIS, and Republic fleet by itself. 😐

Ad it is... what?

A nomadic alien race from Warhammer 40K, comprising many genetically engineered forms (see Tyranid genetics) created from harvested bio-mass.

That's why I don't like a ESD - overgunned and too ripe of a target. One big bullseye that draws the most fire. Thank's for the info on the Chimaera Lucien.

Wookieepedia is our friend. But I like ESD's because they're such a great target. They can defend themselves well enough to attract attention, allowing its escorting ships freer reign.

You totally wikipedia'd that. 😐

The Tyranid share similarities to the Vong in that everything they have is biotic, alive. They would win mainly because they have fleets that range in the upper billions (One grand fleet contains 3 and a half billion warships), and each fleet can double it's population in 2 and a half days. 😐

Wow, how boring.

It's ridiculous.

I love the Tryanid. 🙂

They got their asses kicked by the Imperium though. 🙁

Yay, go humans.

Humans always in the end,

People need to mix it up a little.

Yeah. Star Wars really should have ended with Vong wiping out the galaxy.

Yeah, but I decided to find out myself rather then wait for an answer.
