** A Neimoidian captain bumbles some boot licking in regards to Ventress, and ends up demoted almost immediately. He decides that shouting at the Darksider with spittle flinging from his lips will make her see his way. ForegoneConclusion Three guesses how that went.

* XanatosSpeedChess: [[spoiler:711's plan during the battle of Kamino is an example of this]]

* ColonyDrop: [[spoiler: 711's last ditch attempt to destroy Tipoca City was to drop an eight-kilometer long dreadnought on it. Unfortunately, this trope was averted thanks to Anakin, Shaak Ti, and Obi-Wan using the Force to prevent it from crashing (and knocking themselves out in the process).]]

* CriticalResearchFailure: In universe example. Warlord Gout expresses annoyance at being sent reinforcement to help deal with what he called " a small force of soldiers and several Jedi", which is actually three Jedi ''Masters''.

It is hosted on Website/SpacebattlesDotCom, and it features Tabi as a B1 Battledroid named 711. Much of the story is centered around 711's career as an increasingly prominent officer in the Droid Army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

** Padme gets referred to as "Nubian" instead of "Nabooian" on a few occasions. [[note]][[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Nubia#Behind_the_scenes This is a canonical mistake, dating back to Episode I]], where the Royal cruiser of the Naboo is identified as a 'Nubian' ship, causing many fans to think that people from Naboo are called that.[[/note]]

* GoneHorriblyRight: [[spoiler: Palpatine ''did'' want an attack on Kamino, ''but'' he did it to trick the Republic into funneling more money into military matters and to unify them against the Seperatists. What he really wanted was for everyone to ''think'' that the Separatists were making a determined push, but in reality there would be superficial damage to the actual facilities. Thanks to 711, the damage to Kamino was far more extensive than he planned, doing severe damage to the war effort of the Republic. Oh, and what's more, it reveals Anakin's relationship to Padme to the galaxy, so not only is he dealing with an unexpectedly hypercompetant droid commander, but he's just lost one of his big sources of leverage over Anakin.]]

* FromNobodyToNightmare: 711 goes from a MechaMook to leading strategic attacks on Republic strongholds.

** At one point, a Corellian officer named "Thrackan Sal-Solo" appears.

* BossInMookClothing: 711 is a B1 battledroid, the cheapest and most ill designed of all the Separatist Battledroid types. He is also one of, if not ''the'' most devastatingly effective generals in the CIS.
** Somewhat subverted by the fact that 711 doesn't go into battle personally, and that his physical shell is just as fragile and cheap as any other B1.

* ArchivePanic: Its a ''fairly'' long story, but these days it has threadmarks. You can just click on a button at the end of each installment, and you'll be at the next installment.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler: When an eight-kilometer long dreadnought goes ramming speed towards Kamino and three Jedi ''catch it''.]]

* DressingAsTheEnemy: [[spoiler:In order to safely get himself and Ventress off of a planet under Republic blockade, they steal a Republic frigate and fly off. This while under fire from Republic forces whom had commandeered Separatist frigates. [[{{RefugeInAudacity}} It works.]]]]

** Admiral Himmler has the Marauders; clonetroopers whom are each wearing a huge set of battlearmor capable of tanking blasterbolts seemingly indefinitely.

* ForTheGreaterGood: [[spoiler: Himmler's]] stated reason for [[spoiler: obliterating the capitol of the Iraknians, an ally.]]
-->'''Iraknian General:''' [[spoiler: There are millions of my people there!]] I cannot evacuate so many in so little time! You cannot do this!
-->'''[[spoiler: Himmler]]:''' [[spoiler: Sacrifice a few million to save your planet]] or let billions become slaves to the corporate will of the Confederacy. It is for the greater good!
* FromNobodyToNightmare: 711 himself.

* HiddenArmyReveal: [[spoiler: Oh, you remember all that debris from blown up Separatist ships that fell to the planet early on in the Battle of Kamino? Turns out that a lot of that was not actually debris.]]
* HiveMind: 711 calls it "the Network".

-->...His saber flashed as it cut through droids like a plasma knife through corellian butter...

* MagnificentBastard: Nearly said word for word:
--> '''Clone Officer:''' "That bastard."
--> '''Admiral Yularen:''' "Cold and brilliant. Unfortunately for us, he is fighting for the Separatists."

-->[[spoiler: “You hurt her,” whispered Skywalker. "You hurt my Padme." Grievous instinctively took a step back, his mind screaming for him to retreat.]]
* OrbitalBombardment: [[spoiler: A Republic Admiral ends up bombing one of his own worlds in response to 711.]] The Senate ''does not like this''.
* PyrrhicVictory: [[spoiler: ''Technically'', the Battle of Kamino ended in a Republic victory.]]

* SadisticChoice: [[spoiler: 711 gives one to the Republic near the end of the Battle of Kamino: finish off his crippled naval forces in space and watch Tipoca City be destroyed, or save the city, and leave his fleet intact.]]

** [[spoiler: Warlord Gout]], who really should have seen it coming.

** Which gets turned around immediately, [[spoiler: as Padme is on the comlink with Anakin, who hears her screams]]. [[{{OhCrap}} Oops.]]
* TrueCompanions: Obi-wan sticks with Anakin, even when he does something dumb like [[spoiler: get Padme pregnant.]]
