Why did the CIS lose the battle of Geonosis?

[Ghost Rider]

Look at it this way.

Palpatine and Dooku needed the CIS to lose. If the CIS wins then the Republic loses most if not all its Jedi and a huge portion of its new army (yeah yeah I know).

This momentum would allow the CIS to move forward much more and really might reduce Palpatines influence over the CIS leadership.

The CIS were fighting with assets that were much more expendable as far as the Sith would be concerned.

Remember the Sith never wanted the CIS to win. They wanted a war that neither side could win so that the war lasted as long as possible and granted the Chancellor as much power as possible.

Yeah, this is basically the answer.

Palpatine was playing both sides of the war; as Palpatine who is the leader of the republic, and as Darth Sidious who is the leader of the CIS. His plan to stretch the jedi thin and initate Order 66 wouldn't have worked if he had the CIS win.

Read the fucking rules retard.

Locked.
