When the 501st was finally rotated out of Felucia, Aayla Secura made a point of seeing us off personally, calling us "the bravest soldiers she had ever seen." It's a good thing we were wearing helmets, because none of us could bear to look her in the eye.

"LOL JK IT WAS JUST CONTROL CHIPS IN THEIR BRAIN"
-Disney

>There are people on here who unironically think the Order 66 scene is bad

They probably raped the corpse too

Battlefront 2 was a bad game.

Who wouldn't?

what is this expression meant to convey?

>not again....

No one ever complained about the cold on Hoth. We never felt it. Even though we were blinded by blizzards, we could see the final end of the Rebellion in our blaster sights. Was it only a mirage? Perhaps. But on that day, on that planet, our blood ran hot with dreams of victory, melting the ice that stood in our way.

Do you realize how ludicrous it is to believe that tens of millions of clone troopers all had foreknowledge of Order 66 for years and nobody ever spilled? That'd be like if every single Allied soldier had detailed knowledge of the Manhattan Project.

The control chips were also a Lucas thing, by the way. Clone Wars was entirely produced under Lucas's supervision and cancelled by Disney.

>ayyy lmao

But before we killed her we raped the shit out of her!

You mean Lucas.

Besides, the control chips thing is no different than classical mind control with a trigger phrase. It makes a lot more sense.

Did she fuck every one of those soldiers?

Its the only thing that makes sense other than MK ultraing all the fuckers

It's a well constructed scene, It's the only moment of melodrama in the entire movie that works instead of being unintentionally hilarious. The problem is that most of those characters are literally whos unless you poured over the EU.

Clone Wars is a show for babies and it's easier to say "MIND CHIP" instead of explaining "subtle indoctrination drilled into their heads since birth to obey Sheev above all else"

In the waning months of the Clone Wars, the 501st faced missions critical to the agenda of Chancellor Palpatine. When we arrived at the bombed out ruins of Mygeeto, our Jedi commander believed we had been sent to take out a droid energy collector. What Ki-Adi-Mundi didn't know however was that our unit of the 501st was really after an experimental Mygeetan power source, that the Chancellor wanted for his superlaser. Keeping Mundi in the dark wasn't easy; the Jedi had become increasingly wary of the Chancellor's doings, and was on the lookout for the slightest hint of treachery. Just like the rest of them though, he never caught whiff of what was really going on, until it was far too late.

Trigger phrases aren't used for subtle indoctrination they are used in brain washing and conditioning. Think long sessions of hypnosis and word association and stuff. It woyld actually be easier to microchip a bunch of clones in stead of brainwashing them all Manchurian Candidate style

500 trooper gangbang

Dumb idea, would rather have the theory of indoctrination at a young age or some form of gene manipulation to follow the emperor orders, fuckin hell it would make sense to make them sleeper agents or at activated by order 66

;___;

How many fucking times does it need to be explained that it was part of a long list of contingency orders that also had stuff like removing the Chancellor from power on it. Nobody ever thought they would be used but it is based around the idea of having a plan for every occurrence

For once the star wars wiki can do something other that provide laughs over the autistic detail of star wars fans

starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Contingency_Orders_for_the_Grand_Army_of_the_Republic:_Order_Initiation,_Orders_1_Through_150

What I remember about the rise of the Empire is... is how quiet it was. During the waning hours of the Clone Wars, the 501st Legion was discreetly transferred back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip. We all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when Order 66 came down, and not when we marched into the Jedi Temple. Not a word.

not canon

No shit but it is better than the stupid fucking canon explanation.

This kills the players heart

As the Rebels fled, the 501st gathered around a burning bunker and let out a cheer that shook the stars. The Rebellion was done, the Death Star was being rebuilt, bigger than ever. Order had finally returned to the Galaxy, in no small part due to the efforts of the fighting men of the 501st.

This. Remember that scene in Valkarye where hitler himself had to sign off on the contingency plan that would give power to the conspirators after he died. Its like that except sheev knew about everything cause he was the supreme chancellor. It wasn't suspicious that the chancellor wanted to add dozens of contingencues into the brains of his clone army

After disabling the final capital ship, General Kenobi and Skywalker took advantage of the opportunity we'd created and rescued the Chancellor. Took all the credit, too.

During the rise of the Empire, the Emperor's home planet of Naboo rapidly established itself as a major irritant. After a number of Naboo's ambassadors were sent home in various states of dismemberment, her newly elected Queen broke off diplomatic ties, and began exploring military options. Clearly it was time for a regime change, a change that would be effected by the 501st, now under the direct command of Darth Vader. Our orders were simple, to infiltrate the city, take out their leader, sending a clear signal to other potential troublemakers in the Empire.

To be fair, it's not like the clones would have lasted 10 seconds in that rescue mission

Mah nostalgia. This is dangerously close to becoming a Sup Forums thread.

>tfw too smart for the prequels

Nowhere in that article is it stated who was aware of those orders. Nowhere in the (old) canon is it suggested the Jedi had any idea Order 66 was a thing, because they would never agree to that.

With the Queen eliminated, Naboo quickly fell in line. It was the first time the 501st was called upon to "adjust" a planet's government, but it wouldn't be the last. Within months, the 501st gained a well-deserved reputation as "Vader's Fist".

Also, if they were aware that Order 66 was a thing they wouldn't have been caught off guard so easily.

(You), also
. . . . . . . . . . just in case you're using the default extension like some kind of fucking pilgrim.

By the time we landed on Yavin, whatever shock we'd felt at the destruction of the Death Star had been replaced by anger. For months we'd treated the Rebellion like a disobedient child, only to be repaid for our tolerance with treachery on an unimaginable scale. Frankly, I don't remember much of the fighting. I guess we won.

When the Separatists' invasion of Kashyyyk caught the Republic flatfooted, a detachment of the 501st was sent in to stop the bleeding until reinforcements could arrive. It was a textbook suicide mission and we knew it. As we fought our way into Kashyyyk's atmosphere, most of us believed that the only way we'd be getting off this planet was in a body bag.

As the 501st finally broke through the Sep blockade over Kashyyyk, I took a long look back at the battle that continued to rage over the planet, and wondered why so many had to die for a bunch of walking carpets. Then I followed my orders, and turned planetward.

Isn't the 501st the cosplay group here on earth?

After the battle, the surviving members of the 501st finally caught their breath. The Empire had taken the Rebel's best shot and come up standing. Now it was our turn to strike.

(you)s are available again in vanilla extension, faglord

They were brainwashed from birth.

When the Death Star was destroyed, about half of the 501st Legion was still in the hangar getting to their ships. Of those who made it out, another third were caught in the explosion. I'd fought with some of those men for over twenty years. Afterwards, those of us that survived hooked up with a nearby Imperial fleet making a retaliatory strike on the Rebel's base on Yavin IV. It wasn't the best thought out plan, but we were cut off from our leaders, tired, and operating on instinct. If not for our training, we probably would've never gotten past their orbital defenses.

And so the battle over Yavin came to an end. I'm told we destroyed hundreds of Rebel ships that day. Even if it had been thousands, it wouldn't have made up for the Death Star.

The Wookie Homeworld is super important, you know!

Once it was finally finished, the Death Star was the Emperor's favorite toy. It was also the most boring assignment in the galaxy for a stormtrooper. Tedious inspection drills, endless hours of guarding impregnable force field generators. Things got so bad that when a prison break erupted in the cellblock, we were almost happy to have someone shooting at us again. If only we had known what an embarrassing snipestorm we were about to wade into, we probably would have jettisoned the whole detention block into space.

After the embarrassment of the prison break, Lord Vader removed us from our comfortable billet, and began dragging the 501st across the galaxy, in a dangerous hunt for the now missing Death Star plans. Ironically, our punishment eventually proved to be our salvation. The poor souls who took our place in the detention area were completely wiped out when the Death Star was destroyed.

wew sure glad you censored it

With the information gathered on Polis Massa, Vader concluded that the stolen plans had been given to Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan. We weren't surprised. For all their talk of being a peaceful planet, Alderaan had been thumbing its nose at the Empire for years. After a brief and pointless battle, we boarded the ship, the Tantive IV, over Tatooine, began looking for the plans, and waited for Lord Vader's arrival.

And she was a good friend.

After Lord Vader took custody of Princess Leia, we all figured it was just a matter of time before she coughed up the plans. Many of us had been unwilling witnesses to Vader's powers of persuasion in the past. The thought of a pampered little princess resisting his terrible will was inconceivable.

>tens of millions of clone troopers

>The exact number of clone troopers in the Grand Army of the Republic is a point of some contention. The numbers given, both in the films and the Expanded Universe, seem far too small for a huge, galactic conflict like the Clone Wars.

>In Episode II: Attack of the Clones, Lama Su tells Obi-Wan Kenobi that the Kaminoans have created 200,000 "units," with a million more on the way. "Units" is taken to mean individual clone troopers by both the characters and the writers of the Expanded Universe. According to Karen Traviss' novel Republic Commando: Triple Zero, the size of the clone army has increased to "three million men" by the next year -- a figure repeated in several other sources.

>That may sound like a large number, especially considering how fast the additional clone troopers were produced, but let's put it in perspective. At the beginning of the Clone Wars, the Republic contained over one million planets. That's not much more than three clone troopers per planet.

They really fucked up the scale there.

By the time of the raid on Polis Massa, the men of the 501st were starting to get a little sick of this so called ""Rebellion". In the past, we'd secretly enjoyed putting down a local insurrection or two. They kept the troops sharp and the Empire feared, but these Rebels were different. They were organized, they were growing, and they were everywhere. The raid on Polis Massa was a perfect example of how things were starting to fall apart. We were supposed to go in, wipe out a small band of Rebels, and recover some stolen Imperial plans on an encrypted holodisk. Before we knew it, we were nearly overrun by Rebel forces, with the holodisk nowhere to be found.

Even though the Polis Massa raid was only a partial success, we finally had a lead on the whereabouts of the Death Star plans, which suited the 501st just fine.

Officially, there never was a clone rebellion on Kamino. Unofficially, approximately twenty years after we were created, a special detachment of the Imperial 501st Legion was dispatched to Kamino, with orders to eradicate an army of clones that had been bred to take arms against the Empire. Our mission commander, an expert on the inner workings of Kamino, was a young bounty hunter named Boba Fett.

Wouldn't they all be grey and old as fuck due to age acceleration?

The bounty hunter left after the battle was over. He said something about tracking down a smuggler on Tatooine. After the Kamino uprising, the Emperor decided an army of genetically identical soldiers was too susceptible to corruption. Future troopers would be cloned from a variety of templates. Though the 501st itself remained pure, the rest of the Imperial Army gradually became more and more diverse. We never really got used to the new guys.

Remember when they rebelled against their Jedi general because he ordered them to kill other clones?

Although the Clone Wars were over, some people never seem to get the message. The worst case of denial was Gizor Delso, a Geonosian Separatist who'd somehow escaped Lord Vader's efforts to wipe out the remnants of the CIS. Lord Vader tracked him to Mustafar, and brought us in to finish the job. It seemed like a simple enough mission, but when we saw the fleet of droid ships, hovering over the planet, we suddenly realized that Delso's denial mechanisms were a little more dangerous than we'd imagined.
>tfw Vader's house is on Mustafar now

>The slight whiff of nostalgia the 501st had enjoyed fighting the droid fleet over Mustafar had already grown sour by the time we'd established orbital positions. Now it was time to find out what this was all about.

1.You're assuming all of those planets were worth fighting for
2. The planets that were near space lanes were the really important ones as those brought in trade and supplies
3. The Republic only had to control the major space lanes and isolate the seperatists
4. In SW:Rebels in an episode one of the commander droids who fought in TCW said that the Seperatists were winning and the Republic would eventually lose
5. If you look at the war in Europe in WW2, it took time ofr the US to get a real foothold and failed to dominate territory because they didn't have the number or supplies. Once they had the numbers they could pick and choose were to attack at will.
5. Considering this, it's not unreasonable to conclude the Republic was fighting a defensive war for the first couple of years until they had the men, ships and supplies to attempt to subjugate planets near space lanes and such.

wew

By the time we'd made our way to the molten surface of Mustafar, it was apparent that Delso had been a busy little bug. All by his lonesome, he'd found a previously hidden droid factory, fired it up and cranked out his own private army of battle droids. Needless to say, this got the men of the 501st...a little hot under the helmet, and not just because of all that lava. Truth be told we'd all had our fill of those gear heads during the war, and we couldn't stomach the thought of going through another one. So we blew them up. Blew up the droids, blew up the factory, damn near blew up the planet.

The destruction of the mining facility put an end to any thoughts of a second droid rebellion. For the first time in years, the men of the 501st could relax, and get about the business of maintaining an Empire, rather than building one.

That webm made me laugh way too hard.

With the fall of Coruscant and the elimination of the traitorous Jedi, Palpatine's rise to power was complete. In recognition of our service and loyalty to the Emperor, the 501st were placed under the direct command of Lord Vader. Armed with deadly new weapons, blazing new ships, and shiny new armor, our presence let the galaxy know that the days of the Old Republic were well and truly over. We were establishing a new era, an era of order and peace.

>Sheev ordered the deaths of all these Jedi cuties
Why do you cunts still support him?

>None of this is canon anymore

FUCK YOU DISNEY

>battlefront 2 had better writing than most Star Wars movies

BRAVO DISNEY

> Aayla Secura made a point of seeing us off personally,

Clone Trooper gangbang? Dem Twi'leks, they're the best.

In our bones, we knew the war was almost over. The Galaxy held its breath, waiting to see which side would make the final daring move. As fortune would have it, the Republic moved first. After the Chancellor informed the Jedi Council that General Grievous and the Sep leaders were hiding on Utapau, General Kenobi gathered an army large enough to capture three star systems. When the orders reached the 501st, our morale soared. For better or worse, this would be the beginning of the end.

With the death of General Grievous at the hands of General Kenobi, the Utapau raid had broken the back of the Separatists. Under normal circumstances, it would have been a time for celebration. But our next orders put paid to those thoughts.

When we arrived on Kashyyyk, things were just as bad as we'd feared. The droids had us outgunned, outmaneuvered, and outmanned by a five-to-one margin. What none of us had counted on was the Wookiees. We'd all heard the stories, of course, but we'd never fought next to them, never seen them rip apart a droid with their bare hands. They were magnificent. Even so it was still a suicide mission, at least until Master Yoda arrived. Then it became a battle; a winnable battle.

>chips make no sense as you couldn't brainwash thousands of troops

>the clones were already indoctrinated to get up to date on combat skills anyway as they were mass produced

Anyone who says they couldn't have been brainwashed isn't aware that the base state of the clone was brainwashed.

With the timely arrival of Master Yoda, the 501st was able to hold the line against the Seps on Kashyyyk. We left as heroes. Years later, we'd return as conquerors.

It's been said that the 501st got the best of the war. We also got the worst. On Felucia, the Seps dug their metal heels into the muck of that alien hellhole and dared the Republic to come in after them. So we did, only to be met with the month after month of flesh-eating diseases, shrieking nocturnal predators, and other sights that haunt me to this day. Cut off and for all we knew abandoned by our superiors, our only hope was Aayla Secura, our Jedi commander. Without her iron will, none of us would have come out of that mess with our sanity, or our lives. When her death came, I hope it was quick. She earned that much.

As the Clone Wars progressed, more and more ground-based legions found themselves pressed into space combat, including the fighting forces of the 501st. For months, every hour of our downtime was spent in the simulator, preparing for the time we would face our enemies from the cockpit of a 170. Finally the day came to earn our wings. The CIS had staged a daring kidnapping of Chancellor Palpatine, and was being escorted from Coruscant by a fleet of Separatist ships. With only a few veteran pilots on-planet, many of the 501st were pressed into service to drive off the Seps, and buy time for a pair of Jedi Knights to rescue the Chancellor.

The success of the mission on Mygeeto was something of a revelation for the men of the 501st. Suddenly, we realized that the Jedi could be fooled. And if they could be fooled, they could be killed.

Where is this from?

My first day as a member of the 501st... it was hot, it was sandy, chaotic. Nothing at all like the simulations on Kamino. Of course that's pretty much the way it was for all of us, wasn't it? All that breeding, all those years of training... it doesn't really prepare you for the all the screaming or the blood, does it? Frankly I'm still amazed we ever made it through the first hour, nevermind the first day.

Incredibly, the 501st survived the crucible of Geonosis, emerging battle-hardened, and ready for whatever the war would throw at us.

Well the brainwashing didn't work and they had to use one of their other contingencies. It's a space fact that really happened in Star Wars and there's literally nothing you can do to argue against it.

Reminder that Clone Wars has an episode where a clone malfunctions and tries to do Order 66 early and the Jedi are just like, "that was weird oh well"
