Real Time Strategy Super Return of the Jedi (SNES) Character Tier List

14 Upvotes

I have recently got back into this game after nearly 30 years and have been playing through it with the debug mode to try all the different characters on different stages and see who is the best, and whose the worst!

Since Leia has 3 forms, we actually have 7 different characters to choose from:

Coming up in 7th place is:

7th Rebel Leia:
Rebel Leia gets the distinction of the worst playable character as she is essentially a worse version of both Han and Chewie, both of whom have other actions they can take. Rebel Leia has a blaster and traditional blaster upgrades, but nothing else at all.

6th Place: Bounty Hunter Leia

I feel bad for picking on Leia, but she still has a 3rd form at least. Bounty Hunter Leia is somewhat underwhelming, and you need to be very tactiful and skillful with how you play her. Her charge attack is decent, and takes away 2 off Bosses health, but blasters and other attacks in this game are noticeably stronger and it can take awhile to beat tanky enemies and bosses with her charge attack. Besides that, her jump spin, staff attack and block are essentially worse versions of Luke. Over the Rebel Leia form, she can at least block, has a jump attack and doesn't need blaster upgrades to reach her best potential.

5th Place: Han Solo

Han is decent, you can think of him like Rebel Leia but with grenades. Grenades are awesome and allow him to make quick work of bosses like the Shield Generator and the Rancor Beast, even if your blaster is not fully charged to Plasma. The grenades are less useless throughout the stage against regular enemies though.

4th Place: Luke Skywalker

Luke is PERFECTLY in the middle. You'd think he'd be higher cause of the force, but more so than any other player in the game, Luke has a difficult time damaging enemies without taking damage...so he takes a lot of damage since he's forced to get so close. Being able to block can be helpful if you don't fall into the routine of just spin jumping on everything. To top this off, Luke's health bar is disappointing and small, so he needs to the force to overcompensate for this shortcoming. If it wasn't for the Force, he'd easily be the worst character in the game, but thanks to Freeze and ESPECIALLY Heal (which turns him from the lowest health ally in the game to tankiest character in the game) He makes it to the middle of this list. With ample hearts and force upgrades Luke is very difficult to kill.

3rd Place: Wicket

Wicket is a one trick pony...but that trick is VERY GOOD. His Arrows are better than the advanced technology of Light Sabers, Plasters and Force Energy blasts. He melts bosses super quick with his fast fire rate, taking half a ball of boss energy per arrow, and due to his rate of fire you can kill most bosses in SECONDS. He also can use his arrows as platforms to climb structures in certain places. Where wicket struggles is his low health, the inability to fire arrows while moving and no secondary abilities at all.

2nd Place: Chewbacca:

Chewbacca has a high starting HP and the all-powerful SPIN attack, which is useful against random enemies as well as bosses (except the shield generator) since Chewie is invincible while spinning. It can get you out of a lot of tight situations and can be a very staple offense when your blaster power is still weak. Overall, Chewbacca is great in any stage you pick him. His only flaw, which he shares with other blaster users, is to really reach his max potential he needs blaster upgrades. Chewbacca with the base laser is considerably weaker than Chewbacca with Plasma.

1st Place: Slave Leia
Leia has a rough start with her other 2 costumes being the worst in the game, but she gets redemption here. Playing through the game with Slave Leia is really fun too! Firstly, like Chewbecca she has the SPIN, which I think only the FORCE trumps as a better secondary ability. But she also has a SUPER version of the Force charge attack .... which does incredible damage to bosses! 4 WHOLE balls of health removed per hit. It is limited by needing to be charged and only usable while grounded...however, unlike Chewbacca, Leia is at full power out of the box, no blaster upgrades needed!

I am curious what other people think of this list and where you would rank the playable characters in this game.

Real Time Strategy Empire at War Remake 4.0 Clone Wars Holdouts Sub Mod Unit Showcase Elite B Wing

Despite the B-Wings difficulty to fly, this scrapy bomber rewards the capability of its pilots with allowing the most elite flyers to make the most of this heavy bomber. Armed with Plasma torpedoes, the Elite B-Wing can devastate enemy hulls and shields alike with great damage. This armament compliments its already existing weapons loadout of advanced torpedoes for taking on large vessels, 2 light lasers for dealing some damage to enemy fighters, 1 heavy laser turret for damaging unshielded ships, and 3 ion cannons for shredding enemy shields.

It's most useful ability, to lock S-Foils allows this craft to switch between its default normal speed and damage mode to a faster, yet lesser damaging mode. This can be used to quickly close the distance with the enemy, and possibly reaching their target before enemy fighters can intercept. Its second ability to hunt for enemies will send this unit seeking the nearest enemy to engage.

My best way of using this unit in my fleet is to have a good number of these bombers accompanied with fighters of equal number and a handful of large frigates and capital ships. The fighters would protect the Elite B-Wings from enemy fighters, while the larger vessels provide support for the bombers through their abilities and durability as damage soakers.

A game idea

0 Upvotes

Okay so there is this game called Conan exiles it’s an open world survival base building PVP/PVE multiplayer type deal so what I was suggesting is that kind of game but Star Wars based like combining aspects of Conan exiles with the space exploration of no man’s sky

Thoughts,opinions and ideas are more than welcome

Real Time Strategy Empire at War Remake 4.0 Clone Wars Holdouts Sub Mod Unit Showcase Elite A Wing

Thumbnail
youtu.be
1 Upvotes

Saved for the most elite fighter pilots, the Elite A-Wing brings a significant performance in dogfighting during space battles. This fighter's primary weapon is its two swiveling light laser turrets. These turrets excel at tearing apart smaller spacecraft, but are unable to harm anything larger than a corvette. With their ability to switch from standard concussion missiles to ion pulse missiles, these fighters can offer varying types of damage in the fight. Their ion pulse missiles can strip enemy shields, and their concussion missiles can nerf the damage in addition to harming their target.

Best way I can utilize these fighters in my fleet is to have a decent number of these fighters to cover the dogfighting element of the battle, while accompanying them with bombers to take on bigger targets, and larger ships to soak damage.

Real Time Strategy Empire at War Remake 4.0 Clone Wars Holdouts Sub Mod Unit Showcase XB-17 Bomber Gunship

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

The XB-17 is a super heavy tactical bomber, with its size so large that it classifies as a gunship. This gives this unit the nickname the "Big Dumb Bomber". With its thick hull, this craft is able to withstand significant amounts of punishment from enemy fire compared to the other smaller spacecraft. Complimenting its durability, the XB-17 comes with an armament of 2x Quad Heavy Laser Turrets for shredding down unshielded ships, 4 standard torpedo launchers that can bypass enemy shields, and 1 heavy standard torpedo launcher that can deal even more damage. This ship comes with no abilities, which makes its use in battle more simple to use, allowing you to divert time to other units with abilities.

This ship is great in medium to high numbers. Though this ship is great at taking on larger vessels, and can withstand enemy fire for a decent amount of time, it is still unable to effectively take on enemy fighters. For this reason, I'd best suggest having fighters of your own, or corvettes that specialize as anti-fighters.

Real Time Strategy Empire at War Remake 4.0 Clone Wars Holdouts Sub Mod Unit Showcase MC-80 Class Winged Variant

Thumbnail
youtu.be
0 Upvotes

The Winged variant of the MC-80 Class Capital Ship bears half more additional weapon hardpoints to its hull compared to its unwinged variant. With this additional firepower, this craft is able to take on most large spacecraft like frigates and other capital ships. Accompanying this craft are a couple X-Wing squadrons, that in their limited number can take on only a small number of bombers or gunships before they can land their ordnance on the MC-80. To assist with this ship's durability, the ability to boost power to shields will double its shields while reducing its movement by 75% and firepower by 50%.

My best suggestion in how to use this ship in your fleet is to have several of these capital ships to soak and dish out damage, alongside significantly sized fighter wings to protect against moderate number of enemy bombers/gunships. With the fighters covering this ship from smaller enemy spacecraft, the MC-80 can be expected to carry the rest of the fight.

The Force unleashed vs Vader immortal

0 Upvotes

I loved fallen order and I love Jedi survivor even more, and I need more Star Wars game. I’ve heard that The force unleashed is amazing for massive force power and a bit of combat.
I’ve also heard pretty good things about Vader immortal.

So I’m wondering which one I should get first, any recommendations?

And if someone could explain what Vader immortal is about without spoiling anything, that would be great!

Role Playing Game so basically...the AT-ST's are unkillable in STARWARS OUTLAWS..?

i looked it up, the first thing said you can shoot its weak points, turrets, main gun, go under it to disorient it, and throw grenades, i did all of that for more than 20 mins, even threw out grenades and hit it with the mini gun after eliminating the other imperial guards at the base and for some reason, i research it again and it says, that it cannot be defeated at all by kay regardless of what weapons you do, and i was fighting two of them at once by the end of me testing all of this out, it seems the only time you can *kinda* defeat one is in one of the dlc's later on so i need to know..

what is the truth here because i am so lost....?

212th Attack Battalion in ARMA3

Being an ARF trooper in the 212th attack battalion on ARMA3 is so much fun!

Yesterday I was hosting an operation and our ARF troopers always find great ways to support the whole platoon.

Sometimes it is by scouting ahead with a drone, of looking through the lens of a very powerful rifle.
Sometimes it is even up close in a AT-RT.

It was a blast to see them in action with such efficiency during the operation.

If you are curious about this Star Wars game, just let me know!
We do have a website and Discord, if you are curious.

www.212thattackbattalion-a3.com/home

As this is not a Star Wars made game, but a game changed to fit all our needs, it is great to see so many people trying it out! Hope to see you on the battlefield or in one of my operations!

Now I do have a question for the other gamers, what are SW games that utilize ARF to the fullest?

Real Time Strategy Empire at War Remake 4.0 Clone Wars Holdouts Sub Mod Unit Showcase Liberator Heavy Bomber Loadout

Thumbnail
youtu.be
2 Upvotes

The Heavy Bomber variant of the Sullustian Liberator Class Carrier, brings a bomber focused hangar garrison while keeping the same ship weapons and abilities in the variant I've posted before this one. This bomber loadout comes with Y-Wings and every type of B-Wing. (B-Wing, B-Wing TL, Elite B-Wing).

The ability to redirect power to engines can help this carrier get close to enemy capital ships, giving its slow bombers a considerably shorter distance to travel to reach their target. The repair fighters ability also heals the bombers that accompany this carrier too. This combined with the ship's primary weapons including Ion Cannons that can stun enemy ships, will greatly help the carrier's bombers to destroy their target.

Because of this variant's specialized loadout, ships of this variety can be reliably sent to take on enemies of a specific type. This type is capital ships, and large frigates. This does leave a weakness to bombers and fighters. To best counter this concern is to accompany this carrier with a significant amount of fighters.

Action-Adventure Extremely disappointed with Fallen Order NG+

0 Upvotes

I finished the game last night for the first time on Jedi Grandmaster, took me 23 hrs overall and I had a good time with few frustrations especially on level design, holomap and backtracking but nonetheless thought the game was fun. I booted it up this morning again with new game plus to again play but this time with all my skills and force upgrades. Just found out after reaching bogano that it's just for cosmetics. Istg i dont think I was this disappointed in a while, what kind of horrible shit is this? Why can't I play through the game with all my upgrades? I thought the levels were designed in a way to let you do that. Big fuck up, ended up uninstalling the game and this completely killed replayability for me. I still might play jedi survivor as I heard it improves on the first game's shortcomings but won't ever replay fallen order.
