    I always thought the idea that the Empire was nearly completely destroyed at the Battle of Endor and then quickly replaced by the First Order was pretty uninteresting. Canon never really explores the Galactic Republic after Endor save for a little in the Mandalorian.
    The idea that the Empire fragments but stays somewhat intact is much more interesting to me, and I think it's interaction and conflict with the new Galactic Republic would've made a much better backdrop for the sequel trilogy.

    • @ripgasbaron9716
      @ripgasbaron9716 4 года назад +18

      But it wasn't; the First Order only appeared 20 years later. Besides, The Mandalorian shows pretty well what happened to the part of the Empire that wasn't included in the First Order.

    • @NotQuiteEnglish01
      @NotQuiteEnglish01 4 года назад +22

      They weren't so much replaced as they were the reorganisation of the Empire. Basically, after Endor, a lot of the Imperials who remained fled into the Unknown Regions (and I presume a lot of the galaxy was inspired to rise up and overthrow the Empire on individual systems when they learned of the Death Star II destruction and Palpatine's "death") and spent a few decades reforming and reorganising into the First Order.
      It's also worth noting that the New Republic knew exactly what they were up to but the First Order was buying off New Republic senators to bog down the Senate in legal proceedings and useless embargoes against the First Order that the First Order just totally ignored, meaning the Empire had a few decades to reorganise and rebuild with virtually no major resistance against them. The only major opposition to the First Order was the Resistance, which was formed basically on the back of Leia's reputation alone. The New Republic only gave enough help to the Resistance to be able to plausibly deny being involved with the group in any way. Officially the Resistance was considered a rogue group, giving the First Order no legal precedent for war. In a way, it's comparable to the current situation in the Middle East, where global superpowers are waging a quiet proxy war by funding various groups that act in their best interests but can say they aren't themselves fighting.
      So yeah, the New Republic basically crossing their fingers and praying the First Order don't do anything too overt like attack them and the First Order gearing up to do EXACTLY THAT is the situation in the galaxy at the beginning of the Force Awakens.

    Then somehow a tiny faction from the unknown regions managed to defeat the entire New Republic... except... not...
    The opening crawl of The Last Jedi said the New Republic surrendered. This was like five minutes after Starkiller Base exploded so...

However one month after first contact with the covenant the UNSC INFINITY and her escort fleet of Autumn class cruisers appear at earth through a wormhole. The ships are fully operational and have manuals detailing how all ship systems, such as shielding and more advanced slipsace, operate and also how to build them for other ships. However it goes not have the spartan 4s. How does this affect the human covenant war? Does humanity win or lose? #askeck

      Cheeky Limerick Cheeky Limerick Spartans were only effective on the ground, and the only way they could damage a Covenant ship was with a bomb from the inside, which usually resulted in the Spartan's death.
      However, the Covenant almost always had arial superiority out of sheer fleet power, not tactical prowess except for in the case of Thel Vadaam. The Infinity feel would offset that massively. Human naval tactics outclassed those of the Covenant. With a superior fleet and the tactics to match, the Covanent wouldn't even have gotten past Reach, and possibly could've been pushed back past Harvest, as the UNSC was already mobilized, and the building of a new Infinity class fleet would've been well possible.
      The UNSC would win. The Spartans may have been nigh unbeatable ground troopers, but that never mattered in the face of Covenant naval might and their ability to glass planets regardless of ground resistance. A contemporary UNSC fleet would reverse that, making Space battles almost always end in a UNSC victory. UNSC troops were also already a fair challenge to Covenant ground forces without the Spartans. Although they wouldn't win as often on the ground, that wouldn't matter when the carrier or corvette leading the assault is destroyed, leaving Covenant ground forces alone on a Human planet without arial support.
      With the proper tactics, one frigate, especially an Autumn class one, could challenge a battlecruiser any day. The Infinity would have no issues dealing with Covenant super-ships like Assault Carriers and Super-carriers, as the Infinity can be see smashing through one with no damage sustained.
      Though the Infinity is but one ship, it is obscenely powerful. Though unable to be replicated completely from the unique nature of it's engines, slower versions could still exist, though a little slower than the original, which wouldn't even matter with its might.

      Adam and Eve Jango Fett, though an extremely skilled and aggressive warrior, couldn't hope to challenge the strength of a Spartan, and that's talking about the original, not the clones, which are slightly weaker.
      Spartans have superior mentality, as well as being better in every way to normal humans. One could argue that clones aren't normal humans, and you'd be correct, but the Spartans are even farther, and Mandalorians were always just a subrace of humans.
      A clone still operates like a normal soldier, though better and more dogmatic. They have social lives, sentiment, and fleshed out emotion. Spartans, fully grown ones, never had those distractions. Spartans were unique, and but one could likely take on even the likes of Grievous.
      A better analogy would be the Clone Commandos, but even they wouldn't be able to stand up to a Spartan, as they still share the emotional distractions of other clones.
      Clones aren't only soldiers. They have a chance to experience a bond besides soldier camaraderie, and have been known to do things well outside of their duties for little more than entertainment, not for the Republic.
      You simply can't break a Spartan's morality. They have and always will fight to the death. They may know defeat, but they have never flinched from it. They cannot be broken because they already are broken. Any mental weakness has be chipped away. They have no fear, remorse, or hesitation. They react to all situations accordingly and instantaneously.
      Clones, on the other hand, are able to break, just like normal humans. The feel fear, they can hesitate, they can make stupid decisions, and they flinch in the face of loss. All flaws which the Spartans don't have.
      Spartans are only Spartans. They are soldiers, nothing else. Clones are people. Soldiers may be human, but Spartans are made to be more soldier than human.

      If the Crisis Factions were placed in another sci fi setting how powerful would they be against factions like the Forerruners, Imperium Of Man, the New Republic, Federation, and others?

      possibly better than storm troopers because they also volentered but i think the clone is far superior because of being trained at a very young age

      Old republic troopers those guys can combat Sith. Which back then sith were much stronger than they are now not all but most. Clones and stormtroopers would have to team up to take down a few of these guys.

    I just noticed that they actually weren't fighting a full on war for say but crushing Rebelions. At least until the Rebels became the New Republic.

    What I liked about the o,d republic era was that the sith empire was not inherently evil, it had evil people in it of course but like in the story game you can see truly good people who fought for the empire, I preferred the areas of grey that that era was

      I know this is a joke but Arnold is just a body builder, if we wanted good clones we would need someone like Jango Fett, some combat veteran with good genetics.
