No, it takes a few months to grow a clone, and 10 years to train one, until they get flash imprinting. Then it's about a year.
The Dominion on DS9 could make a clone in a Really Short time, like a day or hour or something like that. Now I am pretty sure than in a battle between the Jem'Hadar and Clones, the Jem'Hadar would win. This is not because I am all for Star Trek, it is because of how they are bred.
Oh good,your argument is based on genetics. Nice, because we wouldn't want it based on tactics, firepower, artillary, coordination, or anythign relevent to a real military conflict
The Jem'Hadar are bred for War, pure and simple.
And what do you think the clones are?
Killing is like Sex for them. They crave it, they fight all the time.
So, do you spend alot of time thinking about sex with Trek characters?
They will fight and die for the Founders without question, and more than half of them have never seen a Founder.
Same with the clones, only with them it is for anyone in command.
They have coded into their DNA the ability to Cloak or "Shroud" (SP) as they call it. So they can hide very easy.
I wonder how well that will work against the sensors in the Clones helmet.
They are super strong compared to a human, but not invincible.
Which only matters if it gets hand to hand, which any competent soldier won't let happen.
There tactics are great as well.
Yeah, head on charges are ingenius!
They will send in Holographic soldiers to trick the Enemy into attacking, this gives away your position, strengths, and numbers. And they do not lose a single soldier.
\It's called a feint, and it's the oldest trick in the book.
They set up mines called Houdinis, anti-personnel mines that "hide" in subspace, then explode without warning. They could be anywhere.
And which won't matter for shit because the AT-TEs will just go right over them like they were designed to do.
Another threat is the Founders themselves. They can turn into anything. A pot, a dog, a mouse, a Clone Stormtrooper! They could blend into a wall or a rock face.
I want you to show that the sensors in clone helmets won't pick this up.
They form bladed weapons with there arms and such.
Which matters for shit against a guy in armor using a ranged weapon.
They can turn to liquid and ooze where you cant get to. One thing they like to do is what the Yuuzhan Vong do. Send spies to Politically break things down there. One could replace an Admiral or Vader (well not replace Vader, but if a trooper ran into a fake Vader, would you be to afraid to shoot and hit the REAL Vader? Not a risk I would take)
Amazingly, quite a few people disagree with you. And I want to know how the founders are going to get past the security to do this, when it is established that cheap scanners can detect shape shifters.
Oh, This is all based around a ground combat like in Guerrilla war on planet AR-558, not full scale, Armies walking towards the other Armies, like in AOTC. More like ROTJ.
AR-558 was not guerrilla war numb nuts.
Sovereign wrote:Most likely true. But in Guerrilla war like on a planet like AR-558, there are other factors that come in. Although they do not have Armor, their dark color makes them easy to hide, plus their cloaking ability.
Dark color doesn't mean shit against IR, and show cloaking would fool clone helmets
Storm Troopers have white armor, easy to see. Even in ROTJ they had white, in a Forrest planet. White on Hoth is good, but not on Endor or AR-558.
Since they would be the defenders, why the fuck would it matter?
Sovereign wrote:
Need I remind anyone that the clones had the droid army in full retreat in about 20 minutes?
That was Army marches towards Army, not Guerrilla War.
AR-558 was Army on Army dumbass. The fact that a platoon of SFers took a chokepoint to make their stand from does not make it guerilla warfare. By your terminology, WW2 would have been a guerilla war.
And you're ignoring the point. Replace the Feds with WWII Germans with Mg42s and the Jemmies would be slaughtered.
Thats a little too far back in history. The Jem'Hadar are still stronger than that.
A wwell set up German choke poiint would massacre those fuckers. More advanced tech != better fighters.
Sovereign wrote:I am not saying that they dont have all this stuff in there helmets, but, does anybody have a pic of the inside of one, that shows all this stuff? Mechs are not in this battle either. I openly said they would be slaughtered in Army vs Army, that is why I said Guerrilla War on AR-558 instead. And for some small planet, they would not use 200,000 troops. How many are in a small unit such as this?
A full platoon, but since you are running this like a force sub instead of neutral ground, call it 150, same as the feds started off with.

Perhaps more to the point, why does Sovereign think that wild-eyed aggression makes a good soldier? Clonetroopers can follow orders and maintain discipline. Jem'Hadar "soldiers" are drug-addled morons who start fighting each other if they don't get their fix. That is NOT a disciplined army. And an undisciplined army is an ineffective army.
They have coded into their DNA the ability to Cloak or "Shroud" (SP) as they call it. So they can hide very easy.

Infrared'll pick 'em up. People always forget that Nog picked up the Jemmies in "Rocks and Shoals" on his tricorder; they're not hard to pick up as long as you're using something more sophisticated than the Mark 1 Eyeball.
They are super strong compared to a human, but not invincible.
Which only matters if it gets hand to hand, which any competent soldier won't let happen.
Actually, Sovereign is bullshitting. They went HtH against the Feddies in "Siege of AR-588" and did not demonstrate super-strength.
They will send in Holographic soldiers to trick the Enemy into attacking, this gives away your position, strengths, and numbers. And they do not lose a single soldier.
It's called a feint, and it's the oldest trick in the book.
It's worse than that. Why didn't they try to move to high ground and use binoculars? Or if they couldn't get to a clear line of sight on foot, why couldn't they scout the site from orbit with telescopes before dropping off their troops? The all-powerful Dominion apparently can't match the United States' spy satellite capabilities.
Another threat is the Founders themselves. They can turn into anything. A pot, a dog, a mouse, a Clone Stormtrooper! They could blend into a wall or a rock face.
I want you to show that the sensors in clone helmets won't pick this up.
Or better yet, show what difference this would make. The Empire has had to deal with infiltrators all the time; their procedures and equipment are robust enough that a lone infiltrator could not do much damage. And bio-sensors would keep them out of sensitive areas anyway.
Sovereign wrote:I am not saying that they dont have all this stuff in there helmets, but, does anybody have a pic of the inside of one, that shows all this stuff?

A stormtrooper helmet, not a clonetrooper helmet, but there's no reason to think they've changed that much. Not that this matters; Sovereign won't respond to or acknowledge any of these rebuttals in any way. He'll just slink away and come back with another set of totally idiotic arguments someday.

We know from ANH that Stormtroopers carry a variety of guns just as big as the ones in AOTC. They're the same soldiers with a diversified weapons mix, not less capable in a war situation. There is nothing to indicate that their sensors are inferior either. As for armor, Clonetrooper armor has more weak points than Stormtrooper armor, and there's no evidence on it's thickness/strength in comparison.

Or jus use a damn UAV, the USMC tested a UAV so small it was launched with a length of Bungee cord and three men. Control was via a small Laptop computer. It would have worked fine such such a short distance.

Of course, a single 81, or maybe even 60mm mortar bomb could have wiped out every one in the pitiful defensive position. They didn't even have any form of entrenchment, walls or barriers let alone overhead cover; they just hid behind existing rocks.

What Guerilla War? If Jemmies love violence so much they'll be charging at the Clones (like they did to the Feds).
And you're ignoring the point. Replace the Feds with WWII Germans with Mg42s and the Jemmies would be slaughtered.
Thats a little too far back in history. The Jem'Hadar are still stronger than that.

Wrong. Jem'Hadar like infantry charges. Infantry charging in WWI ended up with infantry being mowed down by machine guns. Now go to WWII, with more advanced weaponry. And if what you say is true, small caves.

It may be worth noting that Jem'Hadar can't cloak when they're fighting (at least, I'm assuming that's why they drop their cloak every time they attack someone) or if they're low on white (as seen in "Rocks and Shoals" when the Jemmie says he doesn't have the energy to shroud).

Jesus, they'd be better off with camouflage uniforms. At least those don't lose their patterns when their wearers get tired.

A full platoon, but since you are running this like a force sub instead of neutral ground, call it 150, same as the feds started off with.


Good number for this kind of battle.
Since they would be the defenders, why the fuck would it matter?
It would be the same as the feds. 150 troops set up.
Dark color doesn't mean shit against IR, and show cloaking would fool clone helmets
What makes everyone think the Jem'Hadar can be seen in those helmets? Fed scans can hardly find them, unless they are right on top of them. That would include heat scans.
AR-558 was not guerrilla war numb nuts.
Fine, call it trench warfare for all I give a fuck, this is war, go with it.
Amazingly, quite a few people disagree with you. And I want to know how the founders are going to get past the security to do this, when it is established that cheap scanners can detect shape shifters.
When was a time a scanner picked one up? Everytime they show a Founder, they take DNA samples, or low based energy weapons to make them come out of hiding (like in the Fed Presidents room).
Which matters for shit against a guy in armor using a ranged weapon.
Plastic Armor, how very powerful that is :roll:
And which won't matter for shit because the AT-TEs will just go right over them like they were designed to do.
No Mechs in a small cave.

No, it takes a few months to grow a clone, and 10 years to train one, until they get flash imprinting. Then it's about a year.
It takes 3 days for a Jem'Hadar to grow and reach its full fighting age. The Vorta take just as long but are made for command.

There was a battle in orbit with the USS Defiant, they just transported troops just outside the feds area and prepaired for battle. Why would they use binoculars anyway? The whole point was to make them attack so they could see where everyone is, and how much fire power they have left. Oh and it still takes place in caves, no mountains to climb.
Infrared'll pick 'em up. People always forget that Nog picked up the Jemmies in "Rocks and Shoals" on his tricorder; they're not hard to pick up as long as you're using something more sophisticated than the Mark 1 Eyeball.

Sovereign, plastoid does not mean "plastic." Also, even if it were plastic it still provides better protection than the PJs the Feds wear.

The "Lord of the Flies" analogy is flawed. The savages didn't attack each other, and instead concentrated on Ralph, who served as a convenient scapegoat. The Jem'hadar, on the other hand have no one to focus their ire on, and I doubt they are patient enough to look for one while going through withdrawal.

Oh, and Sovie--you STILL haven't provided the evidence that AR-558 was in caves as opposed to small canyons. That pic you posted does NOT show a rock roof over their heads.

What makes everyone think the Jem'Hadar can be seen in those helmets? Fed scans can hardly find them, unless they are right on top of them. That would include heat scans.
The impotent treknology employed by the Fedrats has no relevance to the advanced sensor technology one would find in the SW universe.
Amazingly, quite a few people disagree with you. And I want to know how the founders are going to get past the security to do this, when it is established that cheap scanners can detect shape shifters.
When was a time a scanner picked one up? Everytime they show a Founder, they take DNA samples, or low based energy weapons to make them come out of hiding (like in the Fed Presidents room).
One big disagreement is the fact that the clones fear they might hit the real Vader or Palpatine. I don't really think that either one of these folks would mind too much if they were hit by blaster fire, we already know Vader won't. The shifter may have reservations though...Also it is quite hard for the shifter to duplicate the effects of a lightsaber or force-lightning.

And again the impotent scanning technology of the Fedrats has little to do with the capabilities of the clone troopers.
Which matters for shit against a guy in armor using a ranged weapon.
Plastic Armor, how very powerful that is :roll:
Please cite a reference for 'plastic armor'.
I wonder how well that will work against the sensors in the Clones helmet.

You have made the claim that the Jem cloaking technology will defeat SW era sensors. It is up to you to provide the burden of proof, not the other way around.
So, do you spend alot of time thinking about sex with Trek characters?
Why dont you go watch Princess Lay-ya get it on with Pizza the hut in that metal bikini you sick fuck.
Hey, were you one of those guys who had those strange Leia/Jabba sexual fantasies...it sure looks like you did.
No, it takes a few months to grow a clone, and 10 years to train one, until they get flash imprinting. Then it's about a year.
It takes 3 days for a Jem'Hadar to grow and reach its full fighting age. The Vorta take just as long but are made for command.
What exactly leads you to think that the Jems are going to have the facilities to generate clones? I could have sworn you set this up as a guerilla war, which means that I really don't see how they could have possess a large industrial complex designed to churn out clones, equipment, and weapons and the training grounds you would need to turn individual fighters into an effective fighting force.
Perhaps more to the point, why does Sovereign think that wild-eyed aggression makes a good soldier? Clonetroopers can follow orders and maintain discipline. Jem'Hadar "soldiers" are drug-addled morons who start fighting each other if they don't get their fix. That is NOT a disciplined army. And an undisciplined army is an ineffective army.
A savage attitude can be very dangerous, no matter how sophisticated you are. Read "Lord of the Flies".
Ahh so you have all the combat effectiveness of a group of children making a single melee charge against a couple of unarmed kids? Seriously have you really thought about what you just said?

Undisciplined, unorganized armies are mere fodder for a disciplined organized counterpart, even if the latter is numerically inferior. We have known that fact since Sun Tzu wrote about it in 'The Art of War' thousands of years ago.

I am not sure if you noticed, but the US just went to war a few months ago and our major objective was to turn their army into an undisciplined, unorganized force and then destroy them with impunity...it worked the first time and it worked again.

It looks plastic. It sounds like plastic when they move. It is called PLASTOID. Its not very insulated. They can be hurt by being clubbed by small furry animals. Trust me, its not metal or related to any kind of metal armor, found on the Knights Of The Round Table.
