Lol. Seems to favor the Ewoks.

Totally disagree. The Clonetroopers are like twice as big and strong, and are much better trained. Medieval fights were 99% training and physicality, which the Clonetroopers dominate

Seems like Ewoks would be better with the weaponry used, and better with guerrilla tactics they could use. Since they were already pretty effective against the stormtroopers, seems like taking out the guns would help the Ewoks.

They were effective with guerilla tactics in a very situation fight. This matchup is a medieval reenactment though. Like this. Shield walls crashing into each other, that sort of stuff. Their guerilla tactics are not allowed assuming they have to actually following medieval combat tactics. Even if they don't, their tactics would honestly do worse against a medieval shield wall than they did against scattered and disorganized stormtroopers. Again, physicality and training is the name of the game

Fair enough, though it looks like they still can set up and try to go through with the battle, that one being Hastings. I don’t see a reason why Ewoks couldn’t still try to out maneuver the clone troopers and utilize their familiarity with the weaponry.

No defense from their rocks

They could use that, but my point is that they're at a massive disadvantage no matter how to slice it

Clones got this, they're used to wearing armor and have some hand to hand that could translate to medieval fighting 

[Macklemore]

Clonetroopers are, in fact, the more physical force in this fight. Only reason the Ewoks "won" that fight is due to the fact that they were never in a situation where they fought physically. If it's a fight with equal numbers, the Clone Troopers should have this.

Agreed, I remember a stormtrooper straight up throwing an Ewok during the battle of Endor.

Just a reminder to the more casual Star Wars fans: Stormtroopers and Clonetroopers are NOT the same thing. Yes initially the first generation of Stormtroopers were rebranded clones, but by the time of the OG Star Wars trilogy most if not all ST forces were not the genetic clones of Jango Fett that were seen during the prequels but regular humans conscripted by the Empire and rigorously trained. Jango’s death at the Battle of Geonosis meant they wouldn’t be able to create anymore clones once their original strands were used up, besides conscription was far more cost efficient and produced faster results then cloning. We clear on that?

Back on topic, the Clones strength, reach, and better armor give them a much better advantage in this fight. What really cements this is their training and discipline, as most medieval engagements were won by the force that kept better control and focus over their army. Going with the Clones.
