Victory Star destroyers in ep3 ???

i have noticed in the official site that they are mentioning the victory star destroyer at the acclamator-class stardestroyer page (the clone ships) they said the ASD would be replaced by the VSD at the end of the clone wars ... and since ep3 will take place at the end of the clone wars , it is very possible well see the victory class star destroyer in action ( with the brand new tie fighter )

tell me wadda you think

 

Yep.

 

It's possible but since the Victory class Star destroyer was an EU creation I find it unlikely that GL will include it. Although I hope he does.

 

My dream is to see a Victory-Class Star Destroyer pouring out prototype TIE Fighters to chase down Jedi Starfighters. Yes, the VSD is an EU creation, but it's a very widely accepted one. It even says in XvT that it was created during the Clone Wars, if I remember correctly. GL has put EU stuff in the PT before, let's hope he puts this in as well.

 

GL has already put EU characters in his movies ... do u recal this beautifull twi-leck blue jedi ( i dont remember her name ) she was in comics... GL put her in Ep2 ... in addition , the VSD was created dirung the end of the cloe wars and used during theearly days of the empire ... also a VSD is 800m long while a ASD is 750 m long ... the VSD is more powerfull ... being more powerfull is the stragegy of palpatine . isnt it ??? thats y later , he ordered the developemet of the ISD and the SSD and THE Eclipse ...

GL has always shown the transitions and the evolution of the different factions ...Xwing/Ywing ... then A wing/Bwing ..... Tie fighter /then bomber/ then interceptor... now we know the ASD , we know the ISD , the SSD ... the only remaining is the VSD .... i just cant imagine that GL would forget the transition between the ASD and the ISD

however , it is still possible we dont see the VSD ... since we hant seen yet the dreadgnaught

 

Perhaps we'll see "old type" Star Destroyers and "old type" Y-wings. TIE-fighters i hope not to see, which seems quite unlikely. They would be too old, besides they already have another fighter type, the Y-wing (mentioned as used by the old republic, don't know where) A,B and X-wings were developed by the rebellion or companies hired by the rebellion. And TIE-bombers and Interceptors were developed by the empire at a much later time.

 

but the old type ISD is the victor star destroyer

 

I think that by old type he meant ISD.


I would love to see VSD in Ep. III (being the EU junkie I am), but I'm doubtful that Lucas would put something like that in it. It's like when people want Thrawn to make a cameo.

 

[color=663300]I think that the official site is pointing towards us seeing the VSDs. Most likely, we'll see the end of the clone wars at the beginning of EP3, and the jedi purge thru the movie. The VSDs will most assuredly be in the movie[/color]

I think they're ugly.

 

Shamau, that pic, along with the Victory Class SDs are nothing more than the concept art for the actual SDs we see in the movies.
The EU has taken much of the concept art and used them as ships.
I would not mind at all seeing the Victory class, but its no big deal to me. Hell, I like the Acclamator in AOTC but they don't seem to get much attention(At least I don't see much talk about them on the boards here, very occasional)

 

That's because there's not a whole lot to say about them. We have to wait for the EU to grab hold of it and for LA to make a space combat sim set in the Clone Wars before we get to know much more about it.


I think it is possible we'll see TIE Fighters in Episode 3. They're one of the most recognisable symbols of the Empire. Y-Wings are possible, but I'm not sure if we'll see them on the side of the Repbublic.

 

lmao i think that if we see the VSD , its gonma be the ones we see in the SW ancyclopedia.. not this comcept art modeling from ANH

 

I agree...that's not a VSD, that's a Star Destroyer with a 200 year-old British naval ship stuck on top of it.

 

Right.

Are these more what you guys were thinking?

Bingo. The wings on the side are what make the VSD unique. That SWSV site is teh carp though, they've got their facts wrong for half of it.

 

exactely .. thats it !!!

 

Ooh, my, they look so beautiful! I certainly hope GL puts them in, and maybe we'll see some T.I.E. fighters and old-model TIE fighters as well, as they came before the standard TIE from the OT. And maybe a couple of dreadnaughts as well. VSDs rule!

 

I would love to see some VSD's in E3. Aren't they supposedly red, though? (I say 'supposedly' because it's KJA who came up with the idea.)

 

Acclamators get no respect.

 

Well, "crimson" was the term that KJA used, I believe. But I have no problem ignoring everything that KJA says.

 

I would love to see VSDs in III. When I first saw the Acclamators in AOTC, I thought they were VSDs, and I was so thrilled. EDIT! And no wings. What a disappointment.
Those models in StarWars: Behind the Magic -disc are quite different from those in TIE fighter-series.

And why the h?ll should they be crimson?

EDIT: Let's not have any inappropriate material, thanks

 

When I first saw the trailer, I thought they were VSDs too. I didn't get quite as excited as you did, however. After I watched it a couple more times, I realised that they weren't. AOTC is only the beginning of the Clone Wars though, there's a full two years in which the Victory-class can be introduced.

And I have no idea why they would be crimson, no source has them shown as crimson except for the Jedi Academy trilogy, IIRC. All of the games show them as grey-white, similar to the Imperial-class.

 

I have a quick couple of questions then. If GL does not put Vics in EPIII are you going to like it less just because of that? Do you dislike the Acclamators just because Vics were not in AOTC?

 

Personally, I'm not going to be too upset if VSDs aren't in Episode 3. As much as I would like them to be, I've accepted the fact that the Victory-class as we know it is an EU creation, and consequently has a reduced chance of actually making it into the next movie. Being the starship nut that I am, these are the things I look for in Star Wars movies, but I'm confident the movie will rock even if there are no VSDs in it.
