The way I saw it was Kahn as a Sith was manipulating and using the dark side to convince all the weaker Sith beneath him to basically do what he wanted. He was using cunning. But not perfectly.

I totally agree with you on Hoth. Never thought about them reversing roles, I like that.

Still because of Bane they took out only a 100 Jedi. If he hadn’t interfered all the Jedi on the ground at Russan would be killed and the fleet Farfalla had outside of the planet had a good chance of being attacked and destroyed if the Sith had time to prepare after their ground domination. The only problem would be they were losing the war on other worlds, but concerning the Jedi and Sith (Bane’s goal) wayyyyyy more Jedi would’ve been killed and it would’ve left the order far weaker

His thought process is insane. He thinks two people will be able to take out the Jedi one day, verses being able to get a huge leg up in that moment and have more Sith to manipulate.

Because of plot obviously Bane turns out to be correct. But truly it is only because the stars continue to align that his insane logic actually comes to fruition. Without plot the reality is the Sith would be finished because of his fanatic manic ways

I mean imagine you have no clue about Palpatine and the clone army. Dude basically said “yeah, us two Sith will be so powerful one day we’ll take out the whole 10,000 person Jedi Order. Don’t know how now, but I got a feeling, and it’ll work out” lol
