The Shree was mostly a carrier.  500 battle droids.

While true, it’s also the most heavily armed of the Ssi-Ruuvi ships categorized in the EU.

This is fantastic. Xizer, you exceed all expectations once again.

But now as to the faction itself, I was looking at the ships stats and they definitely are generally underpowered. Their Shree has fewer Turbolasers than the MC80 Liberty, and that we supposed to be their flagship battlecruiser.

Thanks, it's nice to use this warped mind of mine for amusing if not entirely productive things lol

As to the Ssi Ruuk, they strike me as VERY heavily carrier based and swarm based. Cheap, fast and disposable...lots of Japanese Zeros come to mind. Their ships should be about lowering enemy shields but not damaging them, their main line ships should only enter the fight in great number or after their swarms have done the work for them. Same on ground, heavy droid reliance with a few elite Ssi Ruuk infantry that are very powerful.

Yes I agree wit that assessment.
