People tend to shit on clones, but who else can come up with a large enough army to defend the Republic?

At 1/2^42 odds, you're unlikely to have a large enough army to man a V Wing, much less defend the Republic

Not even the Republic, it would appear.

The Confederacy of Independent Systems has far more BattleDroids than your Republic has Clones.

Defeat of the Republic is inevitable.

Yes but battle droids can't improvise!

For me, the main issue with cloning is that it inherently assumes that the cloned organism is way better than any potential organism you could get the ol' fashioned way. Like eg. people cloning their old pets are literally saying that their old pet was perfect and any other puppy/kitty couldn't match them.

Though it's a nice strategy to get a bunch of soldiers quickly
