Worst Imperial Leader

[Lord_jacob]

Well, i would put a poll, but there are so many Imperial leaders, i would miss about 100+. so say who you think is the worst. and no, im not going to put my opinion up here and be all high and mighty, ill do it like everyone else and post on the topic 

[Lord_jacob]

I think Xandel Carivus was the worst. he died begging for his life and he was about zsinj sized and not even as tough as zsinj!

heres a link for more info on him: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Xandel_Carivus#Carivus_and_Nom_Anor

Grand Moff Seerdon, Because using a Landing Shuttle Vs Luke Skywaker in a X-wing was his brilliant Idea that lead to his undoing. When EGO induced rage leads to your fate poor leadership indeed.

[Lord Xizer]

Madam Director Isard, no one did more damage to HER OWN TEAM than her!

[Newrepublic-woodie]

Ishin II Raz, as he was mainly a political leader... and wasted a star destroyer, and an entire imperial crew, by his selfish way of committing suicide....

[Lord Xizer]

I listed Isard for these reasons.
1: Being more concerned with her own power than the sake of the Empire.
2: Her plan that got rid of Pestage(This just caused even more strife and promoted the image of central authority having collapsed)
3: Gave the New Republic Brentaal, Borleias, Coruscant and eventually through ineptitude Thyferra
4:By losing Imp Center completely ensured more fracturing of Empire and legitimized the NR overnight sending thousands of Star Systems, fleets and officers to their side or to the Warlords.
5: Gave the NR 4 ISDmkIIs through incompetence(okay fine 3 since Terrik got the Vehemence/venture) and the Lusankya(giving them a powerful flagship that would haunt the Empire for years to come)
6:Caused Baron Fel's defection
7: helped the NR destroy Krennal(out of personal vengeance due to his defying her in the Pestage matter)
8:Due to her incompetence, madness and psychotic tendencies gave the core to the NR, murdered billions on whims that turned the galaxy even more firmly AGAINST the IR and gave Warlords and NR massive amounts of propaganda to use for their benefit.

She was definitely more of a hindrance to the Empire, than a help.

In languages in a galaxy far far away Ysanne Isard probably translates to "Team Killing F**ktard!"

Totally agree with xizerthe worst leader

[Thrashia]

Admiral Daala. She had three tries to be a good Imperial leader and failed every time, losing who knows how many lives and wasting untold numbers of ships and resources in service to the Imperial cause. The fact that she kept coming back and back again just makes her one of the worst recurring villains in the SW universe.

[Senza]

I have to agree with Xizer, Isard was probably the worst, with Daala a good bit behind, but still pretty bad. Palpatine is on the list too, but he did some good stuff for the Empire.

Eh, I kind of have to give Isard a bit more benefit of the doubt than I can to Daala. When Isard took over the Empire was already fracturing under various warlords. By the time Daala came to power, she managed to have most of the remnants of Imperial power united under her - something that Isard never had.

Just about any other leader would have made things a whole different story.  Thrawn, Daala, Reborn Emperor, anyone...  Screw the director!

[rumiks]

all where bad except palleon because all of them lost did damage to themselves or just plainly screwed up at least palleon knew when to call it quits and give up to save the empire some respect

[Lord Xizer]

Isard was a female Cobra Commander

[Lord_jacob]

actually, palleon was a very good strategist, and could be compared to Thrawn. He knew  if the war went on any longer, both sides would keep on suffering (and the Empire would die). he did more then save them respect, and i wouldn't compare him to any other leader except Thrawn

Yes and No at least she had enough luck to survive those tries, and dont forget thats a general imperial characteristic...but simply no luck with leading itself, id rather say she was intetligent enough to stop trying vs Skywalker & Co

To me Palpatine himself was the worst leader since it was his fault in the first place the Empire fell...

[Lord Xizer]

I'd say it was more the fault of and Asthmatic burn victim, furry Ewoks and Wedge Antilles.
