Republic Commandos Vs Skynet
November 15, 2008 by admin
This would be a great game to make (hint, hint, game developers) - either army has ample strategies they could employ, many weapons to use and vehicles to fight against each other with.
In the end, I think the winner of the match would be the one that could grab a strategic foothold where they could continually assault the opposing force.
Who wins this slugfest?

Hmm, interesting; regarding as how it says “republic commandos” and not “delta squad” we can assume the entire force which is a massive threat, however you really can’t beat Skynet so this battle is sorta a tie by default.
Sure the commandos easily have the firepower, training, skill, and tactics to annihilate the forces of Skynet, but the thing is practically immune from physical destruction….
However; if the Commandos have a combat AI, I have no doubt the thing would have little trouble erasing the primitive 21st century AI that is Skynet in seconds.
well i only played the republic commando game on xbox,but if vechiles can be used skynet would be turned to shrapnel in 3 seconds flat.
I dont know how the AIs are for the Republic Commandos, but there is no way they can obliterate Skynet as long as they have circuitry in their gear/vehicles.
The Commandos would dominate the hardware fight. So I suppose that does make them the victor. However, Skynet will just hide and learn and hack, and infest, for years uppon years and rise once more, much stronger than it ever was. This is why I think Skynet wins this one in the long run.
Hell. imagine the havoc it will unleash on the universe once the Republic becomes the Empire. Imagine Skynet taking over things like the Star Destroyer, or Sun Crusher, or World Devastators.
No, Skynet cannot be taken lightly. Sure, combat AIs in SW may be more advanced, but Skynet has something absolutely unique. It learns and grows at the pace of a computer but with the cleverness and cunning of a human. Its the perfect Amalgam of genius.
Veredict = Republic Commandos win the battle, but Skynet wins the war.
If Skynet can infest any computer so can a SW AI, and considering that a SW AI would be literal eons ahead of Syknet, able to learn and process inconceivably faster, Skynet looses. In both reality and cyberspace.
The Skynet armies would be turned to super-heated scrap in the opening engagements. this is where the Commandos would make massive gains initially.
But the issue of temporal manipulation also tends to put a dampener on opposing forces, which is something the Republic Commandos could overcome if the Planet they were fighting on (I should imagine it would be post-war Earth) were bathed in Ion cannon fire from the on-set.
Which wouldn’t be much of a battle really; but the only way they could ever corner Skynet would be to achieve total surprise (Orbital Bombardment, which I believe is not in line with this fight), fight in Autisitc mode without the use of advanced data networks or uplinks or simply bring along one of their Astromech Droids and have it wipe Skynet on a planet wide scale.
As Alpha has stated, a primitive 21st Century A.I. cannot compete with even a common R2 unit, as long as you isolate Skynet it should be possible to scorch it from the Planet. And if all else fails, blow up the entire Planet itself.
Although that may be cheating.
scorch would blast whatever that is
Well if skynet would produce T-Xs as their standard infantry then the republic commandos would be wiped out easily
But if John Connor helped the Republic Commandos…well i vote for the Republic Commandos
Sky net would just send like 500 liquid terminators to pwn them.
