Seriously? If he could, then the CIS is officially the most incompetent galactic army to ever exist. The CW should've been over in a few days.

Incanus Istari

Yeah, I would have to agree, as the entire Grand Army of the Rpublic would kill Luke in a few minutes............... Remember teh CIS has supers, droidekas, and all that, tanks, etc.

This is one of the most retarded polls I've ever seen. Increments of ten ending at one hundred then skipping ahead to the entire army? A quadrillion battle droids?

You've outdone yourself.

What do you want me to do? There's only up to 10 poll options maximum allowed, and in case if you can't count I started going up in increments of 20s later in order to get to 100. What do you want me to do: Go up in increments of 1s and then have the last option be "10+"? That would be retarded.

The only way to make this poll more retarded would be making the increments smaller; apparently you're not understanding that the idea of a hundred CIS battle droids killing Luke Skywalker is inane.

All I'm aware of is DE Luke obliterating several droids by waving his hand.

If ten thousand Jedi couldn't defeat the Confederacy, what makes you think Luke could?

Incanus Istari

He is to much of a force god and no author would make him lose to CIS droids, because then Luke fanboys would swarm them til they rewrote it. Luke is a loser..... needs a good slap and "YOU SUCK!" to the face then authors wouldnt make him a force god.

well, these battle droids are pathetic, according to all of the new cartoons, and episode 2 and 3. (mostly 3) So Luke could probably trick them all into not shooting him.

IN FACT: He could use his cloaking skill (he's done an entire planet, and ships, no problem clocking himself) Then just walk around killing them.

So Luke wins if he can cloak and avoid detection. (since he can kill at a distance with the force, they wouldn't know where he was when he was killing them. Take him all day, but he would win.)
Agree/disagree?

Incanus Istari

Ok, a few prblems with your theory. 1: Thermal scanners, as the CIS had super battle droids, and some batle droids, out of a few thousand, had thermal scanners. Cloaking doesnt hide his heat signature. 2: Droids are droids, so he cant use mind trick on them as they have no mind. 3. They would notice a floating green lightsaber chopping stuff up Or the fact that they were being killed, and then start shooting randomly.

actually, scanners can't tell the difference between ships that are mirages and the real deal. And jedi have all kinds of ways of screwing up sensors by LOTF. (usually just shows up as static, and these droids are NOT bright enough to figure out what that means, plus when a few started dropping, they would probably start shooting wildly everywhere, or start shooting at the lightsaber.)
And lastly, he doesn't actually need to use the saber. He could use the force to get one droid to pull the trigger at another droid, Plus, they are droids, so just because they can see the weapon floating around, if he is using the force to carry it around, that gives them NO IDEA where skywalker is.

If Luke alone could destroy the confederacy all at once, then I have no idea why he can't just solo every fleet he sees.

Incanus Istari

Ok, so yes, Luke pwns alot of droids, but Thermal scanners would show him, they detect heat, nothing else.

OUR artificial intelligence is smarter than the battle droids. They are arguably the most inefficient force to have ever existed in galactic history.

confederacy sucks thats why. he never fought the confederacy, plus he can't be everywhere at once. They would destroy many many planets before luke was able to take them down. I'm thinking an open field fight. I still don't think the sensors would work.

You do realize that there are a quadrillion+ droids right?

Incanus Istari

Ok, so thermal sensors that were made to be used alot and efficiently, dont work. Makes sense to me.

i realize how many there were. They were all less than useless though. This isn't a luke fanboy moment at all. This thread was talking solely about the battle droids. It didn't say super battle droids. It didn't say command droids. It definitly didn't say destroyer droids. It said battle droids. Tell me, when were these battle droids even SLIGHTLY competent? They fought a battle against Gungans. Primitive Gungans. And they won after a hard fight. That is the type of army i'm thinking of here. without the artillery.
Obviously he couldn't take the CIS, ships, destroyer droids and all. That would be ludicrous.

And Incanus? Have you read LOTF? Scanners don't work against Jedi. Plus, where did battle droids EVER display thermal sensors?

its literally impossible for every single one of the droids in the cis and luke to be on the same planet and most droids are controlled by something so kill the ones controlling the droids cis is dipatched

thats what i'm saying, they are simply too pathetic to pose a real threat. I mean, would you pick luke or millions of nerfs? Regular battle droids simply aren't dangerous. It was the super battle droids that won the battle of Geonoisis.
