Hell, the KOTOR era Jedi that are killed by the Triumvirate are stated to number in the 10,000s. An order already weakened severely by the Sith War and Civil War. It is made clear the TOR era Jedi are far more expansive than before.

The SE doesn't really have much in the way of ships and fighters, their standard fighter and bomber aren't gonna be a real match for an ARC-170 or an ETA-2 Interceptor or whatever other starfighter the Clones have.
The Empire even developed cloaking technologies to conceal the presence of an entire armada and unleash it upon the 'unsuspecting' enemy (should the need arise).
Shitty storytelling aside, the Empire had everything useful at its disposal.

Their biggest ship is a Dreadnaught which is fine, but the Venator heavily outclasses that in terms of fighter support.
Harrower-class dreadnaughts have shields and heavily reinforced hulls.

Now they do have the advantage of super weapons, but it's not as if those can't be destroyed, given that they are all on ships. If the OR can get information and strike forces to destroy them, I have no doubt that the GAR would be able to do the same with their Intelligence branch and SF.

The thing is though...the standard Sith Warrior seen in the trailer of Hope...aren't that great. Of course they'd have the advantage of melee combat, but it's not as if troopers weren't killing them. Heck one of them got clocked in the face with the butt of a blaster rifle and sent into the ground.Far as the SE Troops?....Eh, I don't find them really impressive tbh.

The Jedi Order's numbers are unnaturally small given the size of the galaxy.
I believe that the Sith outnumbered Jedi during TOR era but the Republic had too many troops to throw at them.

Kreia claimed that 100 Jedi was a fairly generous guess already. I don't know where you're getting 10 000 from.

Relatively inferior Republic weapon systems held their own against Empire's state-of-the-art weapon systems during the war. Those lasers and missiles are going to destroy you, no matter what. We see a repeat of same story during the Battle of Endor. In the end, it comes down to skills of the personnel involved.The Empire even developed cloaking technologies to conceal the presence of an entire armada and unleash it upon the 'unsuspecting' enemy (should the need arise).

True it's all the same really, but the ARC-170s have more than just simple laser cannons and are more durable than the Mark VI Supremacy.
This is true.Harrower-class dreadnaughts have shields and heavily reinforced hulls.
Harrower-class dreadnaughts were superior to anything Republic brought on the table and still suffered losses.
Ok so then the GAR shouldn't have any problems destroying them.
They were up against Republic's Havoc Squad - the best of the bunch. Still, they killed many.
A blaster rifle is still a blaster rifle, yeah they were Havoc Squad, but the Sith Warriors just kinda charged into a wall there. That and it's not as if every battle is gonna be an ambush on Sith forces(if they do it's gonna be using their Special Forces too), plus there's still the ground and air advantage the Clones have.
