If you want more Star Wars movie material look at the Battle over Coruscant... that scene is full of capital ships firing at capital ships and I mean full of it... they seem to do massive damage to each other there.

i want to repeat a challenge to armada "roleplayers": this is not a " mocking" challenge as i am a roleplayer and frequent GM myself, so this is an honest question of mine.

asssuming only the movies are canon *, find me a couple of seconds where ships are shown to damage ships.

#1. devastator in rogue one.

#2. a single nebulon trading some blows shooting from the broadside(lol) in return of the jedi. no damage us shown but at least IMPLIED.

next closest thing,

#3. venators in episode 3. cannons are shown to fire. no actual damage seems to be inflicted by ships to enemies, but at least IMPLIED.

episode 4, ISD vs cr90, the cr90 doesnt seem too damaged after being shot by TIEs and ISD. kudos for tractor beam.

REPEAT: WHERE IS THE DAMAGE? when are we shown that ships can actualy deal serious damage to one another, more than minor damage to prove they are anything other than carriers?

find me something. it is 8 movies full of space battles and i have found like 5-10 seconds of ships shooting at ships. come on.

* why only movies are canon: because unlike comics etc star wars movies are mainstream, and there is power in modern culture in being mainstream and not "geekish". they will change geekish , obscure stuff whenever they like. ergo, comics and novels are canon, but not ICONIC like movies.

right now, from an outsider's perspective, the except devastator(ONLY SHIP THAT HAS CONFIRMED DAMAGED SHIPS) ,ships could be armed with flashlights for all we know. so until we find evidence of what ships can do other than carrying starfighters who get all the glory, players that wnat big ships/guns struggle to convince me.

Let's just say, that this exact argument is the most disgusting denial that other people could possibly have expectations of the world that are different from yours. Or that they understand that movies are made to show the most important information, and building huge ship scenes takes a lot more resources in 1970. I mean, just all of the above, its been discussed to death.

I don't even have any ill will towards you, Kikaze, but really. STOP SPREAD THAT SHTT AROUND.

I couldn't get any images from Scarif, but there is a moment a Neb-B receives a big green turbolaser shot and blows up, and also THE WHOLE FRIGGIN' DEVASTATOR SCENE DROPPING FROM HYPERSPACE
