Why didn't they just make an army of these fuckers instead? Even if they're more expensive, use 10,000 of these instead of 100,000 of the worthless battledroids.

Why doesn’t the US army just have like a million Navy Seals? Who cares if they’re more expensive or harder to train.

Robots aren't the same as people. Maybe how they are powered requires a finite resource so they couldn't woukd make more sense.

>Why don't they build robots specifically to counter jedi when they are fighting millions of disposable clones with wrist rockets and can easily overwhelm their shields with concentrated fire
George spent way more time thinking about this than you did pseud, prequel haters been grasping at straws for 23 years now
>oh no muh cgi rabbit alien literally raped my childhood and retroactively ruined star wars

Because israel demands blood sacrifice of american soldiers

The problem with your analogy is Navy Seals are actual people, not robots on a production line.

Battledroids B-1 can drive tanks,transports , pilot command ships , operate C&C.

Why are you talking about "millions of clones" for a screenshot from TPM? You're tripping over yourself trying to be super clever and smarmy but you can't even pay attention.

Also the symbology of two disposable armies controlled by the same politician is completely lost on OT/ST babbies and nit picking fags. This is why themes and stories are more important than retarded nitpicking. George is the best worldbuilder in the history of cinema and some retard wonders why they don' spam out expensive anti-jedi weapons on disposable clones. This is exatcly why the Germans lost ww2 btw focusing too much on wunderwaffe over efficiency and logisitcs. George is literally too smart for his haters. Anything they nitpick can easily be debunked by anybody with a basic grasp on logic and history.

>we have to throw out the entire theme of the clone wars because some butthurt pseud wondered why they didn't build more driodekas, oh no movie ruined.
Go suck a dog dick btw

>Queen is escorted by twenty of these guys instead of ten pathetic battledroids given they know two Jedi are on the loose unaccounted for
>Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan: Uh darn

I see le epik contrarian is already jerking himself off

>Why didn't the trade federation predict these jedis traveling through the planet core from the gungan capital and accordingly distribute resources
Wow i bet you feel like a genius looking at everything in hindsight.

this basically. droideka were specifically for killing jedi. they can't do most of the things a normal droid can

eah, I think a big point being missed is that the CIS was never actually meant to win the war. It was a rigged war from the start, designed to thin out the Jedi (and put them in vulnerable positions to be assassinated), increase Palpatine's popularity as a victorious wartime leader, and increase his legal powers first temporarily then permanently.

With that in mind, it wasn't necessarily Palpatine's plan for the CIS to be the most effective military possible. He only need to do enough to achieve the goals mentioned above. To do that, it may have been more visually imposing to make as many battle droids as possible and scare the general populace into giving Palpatine more support and more powers.

how are they "anti-Jedi" as if they build their droid armies expecting to fight Jedi? their shields stop regular blasters just as well, Padme and her crew are helpless against just two of them later, until Anakin gets a starfighter with laser cannons, hardly something you carry around with you.

Because the TF didn't want an army, they wanted an occupation force to use against enemies that didn't resist. For that you just need a lot of bodies with guns, which the battle droids were.

1). Cost

Droids are expensive, and these droids are very expensive. They carry four guns and personal shield generators. The Trade Federation could probably make many B-1 droids instead of just one droideka.

Or maybe you know "Let's have our strongest droids guard the most valuable target instead of a handful of scrubs". A bunch of random Naboo guards with blasters could have destroyed the same battledroids.

If you'd stop rushing in trying with these kneejerk defenses you might think more.

2). Combat effectiveness

Droidekas are clearly very powerful. Their shields can take a lot of damage before losing integrity. A strong blaster bolt (or a lightsaber to the top of their head) from some kind of vehicle is required to destroy one. That being said, they don't really seem to be strong in numbers unless they're lined up. B-1 battle droids seem to know how to shoot around their fellow troops, but droidekas have massive shields that extend off their bodies. This makes it difficult and dangerous to shoot around. Droidekas could become very dangerous to the surrounding battle droids because of their deflector shields. It's pretty easy for me to imagine one droideka accidentally shooting another and the shot ricocheting and hitting a battle droid in the face. Meaning that it is far easier to just use a bunch of battle droids. This, after all, is the Trade Federation's battle strategy; use a large amount of not-very-powerful troops to attack instead of a few strong ones.

And one droideka is more useful in a battle than about 50 battledroids going by what we see in the film.

3). Intelligence

Droidekas are not smart at all. They are killing machines that can't communicate (at least verbally) to the other droids, unlike B-1 battle droids. They can't give orders or make tactical decisions regarding their environment. Granted, B-1 droids are pretty dumb too, but they can communicate with other droids and give orders. In addition, battle droids can pilot or drive vehicles when needed, something that droidekas can't do.

>Super Battledroids introduced as the intimidating and powerful new troop instead of the wimpy battledroids always intended as pure fodder
>Start of next film, they're right back to worthless and doing slapstick with squeaky joke voices
Why?

Because then they might actually win user. These movies are for dumb dumbs who want the "good guys" to beat the "bad guys".

Why not make the ships themselves automated? Why waste the effort designing them with a cockpit and being pilotable?

Checkmate, prequel fags.
