Admiral Sarn's Phantom TIE Project vs. General Rohm Mohc's Darktrooper Project

For those who have played Dark Forces and Rebel Assault II, whose project do you think was better...General Rohm Mohc's Dark Troopers or Admiral Sarn's Phantom TIEs? Also, if Rookie One

and Kyle Kataryn didn't exist...which of these projects do you think would overthrow the Rebel Alliance faster?

 

If Rookie One didn't exist, the Death Star wouldn't have been destroyed. And if Kyle Katarn didn't exist, Jerec would have made the Emperor look like a cheap magician in comparison.

I would have to say the Dark Troopers would have done a faster job of eradicating the Rebellion. Imagine the sheer carnage they would have unleashed upon the Rebels at Hoth. Granted, the TIE Phantoms would have devastated the Rebels should they have been at Endor.

Both would have provided vast tactical advantages for the Empire, but neither would really be as unstoppably war-winning as superweapons like the Death Star or Galaxy Gun that would have made resistance to the Empire's might impossible. Even then, Palpatine didn't actually, really try to destroy the Rebellion because it was never a threat to him.

 

I'd say the TIE-Phantoms for the simple reason, that the RA is fighter-centric and does little on the ground.

 

I'd say Dark Troopers. The Rebel Alliance wouldn't be much if a Dark Trooper got stationed on every planet and bumps off the local resistance cell.

This is true. The RA couldn't hold a base for more than a few months at a time it seems. They had some infantry but absolutely no armor to speak of. They had some pathetic guns and a few speeders. There is no doubt that they were completely owned in ground warfare. Pretty crazy how the majority of the Clone Wars was about taking territory while the Rebellion hopped from abandoned planet to abandoned planet and ran mostly naval operations. I guess, you can't strike at the capital world if there isn't one. Good Guerilla strategy.

Carnage

 

hmmm... interesting! Now, if the Arc Hammer and Imdaar Alpha actually duked it out with one

another, which one would win the fight?

 

Which limits the threat of Death Stars and Galaxy Guns and Suncrushers and Nostrils of Palpatines.

 

Dark Troopers all the way.

 

Wonder how the Rogues woulda faired against the Phantoms.

Did the Phantoms fix the cloaking problems that were alluded to in TTT?

 

The Phamtoms used a different type of cloaking device. They used the original crystals used by the Trade Federation and in the courier vessel used by Darth Maul.

TIE Phamtoms would be more appropriate in dealing with the Alliance, catching them unawares and dropping bombs etc.

 

"Phantom punches faster than lightning,"---old jungle saying.

 

If Kyle and Rookiee One didn't exist then the Death Star would have destroyed Yavin 4 and ended the Rebelion before either of the projects could even get up and running

 

Wow! I like never thought of that! Sarn and Mohc would practically be "normal" characters. It's too bad Sarn never thought to make his own personalized Phantom TIE to save him the trouble of facing Darth Vader's wrath for his failure to secure the Executor. A modified Phantom TIE vs. A Phase Three Dark Trooper (you do the math).

 

I don't think "vs." is a commonly accepted mathematical term.
