Mandalorians vs Jem'Hadar

[Cpt_Frank]

How about a fight between our precious Jedi killers from Mandalore against the genetically engineered servants of the Founders?

[GreenZXZ]

Well, under what situation can this fight take place? After AOTC, I think it's fair to say that Mandaloran armor will be a decisive factor here, but the Jem'Hadar might win if they outnumber the Mandalorans ten to one in an inclosed space. In such case the relatively slower Mandaloran rate of fire will allow a large Jem'Hadar force superior firepower, while also removing much of the utility of the jetpack.


A more fair fight would be between battle droids and Jem'Hadar/Borg.

[Cpt_Frank]

Well, right, it's a bit unfair. Didn't think that well about the topic.
But well, why not argue about Droids vs Jem'Hadar?

[Mr Bean]

Depends on whos droids we are using
Trade Federation?
Empire?
Republic?
Specials(IE Good old Assins Droids IG-88 and the like)

[Cpt_Frank]

Ok, we're using a standard Trade Federation droid army from the AotC era here.
This will include large numbers of standard battle droids, shield-protected Droideka destroyer droids, super battle droids, droid starfighters, those repulsorlift-tanks (can't remember the name), and STAPs.
I imagine the following scenario:
While the TradeFed battlefreighter is shooting the crap out of the Dominion fleet, the droid army is sent down to the planet to conquer, lets say, a major Jem'Hadar cloning facility intact, so that the techniques the Dominion uses for cloning and such can be researched.
Additionaly, we assume the control ship won't be destroyed, and that neither party will be able to get support from the starships in the orbit, since they're busy with fighting each other.
The Jem'Hadar's forces will probably consist of a large frotified base, including mines, barbed wire and such, with a numerical advantage of
2:1 for the Trade Fed since they're the attackers.

[Mr Bean]

Hmm that would be a intresting fight

Depends on currant fortifactions and the simple fact Bots don't give a damn so to speak

Atilitry Bombs the walls from afar and wades through the fire till they get in a rip the Jem'Hadar apart

I think the battle would be extremtly costly for the Jem'Hadar by the simple fact its a base no room for the massive Atilliry that the Driods could bring to bear

I imagin this as sort of like USSR Army and Doctrinen Era 1976 VS a German Army and Doctrin same time Period

Simple mass fire attacks would win till they got to the walls then its anybodys guess

Factors we don't know

Defense Fortifactions needed to be smashed First?
AOE Weapons the Jem'Hadar have?
Shield Strength?
Cability of taking them intact(IE Jem'Hadar don't simply blow the base or smash and wipe the computers)

[Cpt_Frank]

Hmm, perhaps I'm gonna make up a more detailed plan of the
base in question and the forces used by both fractions. This battle could in fact be more fun than other SW-ST fights since ST isn't extremely outmatched in this one.

The Jem' Hadar would lose. They might be good soldiers, but that doesn't matter when the other side has personal shields and better weapons.

Good Soldiers? LOL! They go yelling around battlecries, rushed right into a choke point, and ran into a minefield and didn't retreat

[Typhonis 1]

Frell what to keep the Trade Federation from dusting the Jem`Hdar with nerve gas???after all it doesnt affect droids PERIOD.also some droids could be proped INTO the facillity to createa bit of mayhem >BTW they are called Armored Assault tanks and are piloted by battle drods and if this is AOTC era then the TF may have moddified the droids to where blowing up the control ship wont stop em, "those who fail to learn histories mistakes are doomed to repeat them"[/quote]

[Soontir C'boath]

Wouldn't the Mandalorians be more equipped no no....no not equipped but be much better than the droids because I thought Battle Droids were thought ineffective in combat.

Naah, they're not Super-Soldiers, but they are a cheap and effective alternative if you don't have a huge resource from which you can draw recruits (millions of member worlds, for example).

I know this might sound a bit silly, but what's stopping the Jems from beaming the Droids into orbit in groups of 10 or so? They might not be able to get at the ones in the AAT's due to the armours thickness, but there's been no sign of the Droids ever deploying ECM and the droids are hardly the brightest tools in the box are they.

[Cpt_Frank]

Ok then, a little ammendment:
The TradeFed ship of course deploys heavy jamming equipment so that no one on the planet will be able to beam around.

And whose mines were they? Fucking bunch of Numpties.

The Houdini Mine, perhaps the worst designed "terror" weapon ever. Let me ask everyone this, what would terrify and lower your morale more? A mine that once in a while pops out of nowhere and kills one person at a time... or a Mortar team sat on a hill in the distance having a party, listening to some music and once in a while dropping mortar bombs on you whenever they want whereever they want and killing your men in large groups, plus anytime you try to assault their position a dug in enemy holds you in place whilst the Mortar team gets down to some serious bombing of your now exposed men?

Just add some WP mortar bombs and watch as the Feds come screaming out of the cave and flail around in agony.

Bugger!
