"Commander Doom and his army of chads" This is why I love Geetsly's so much. The dry wit pairs finely with the horrors of war.
We love our humor!
Unrelated note. I really wanted to see more clone vs droid battles in Clone Wars. I mean, I love the show for what it is but I just wished that there would be more epic battles instead of fillers and filling in “lore/original trilogy related” stuff
Wouldn't necessarily call that dry wit since its just Meme internet humor.
And the accent
The worst job is having to watch for those wrist rockets.
WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETSSSSS
Lmao 😂
@@geetslys just like the simulations
Clone troopers really had to take the full weight of the war
A recurring theme you could say.
we really did thank you for caring.
I have given u your 100th like congrats
not full, a lot, not full though remember that most of the clone wars was fought by PDFs
They deserve better order 66 was blast for them get it yea I see myself out for that
12th Army will forever be remembered, hopefully there’ll be a comic or novel that gives them the respect they deserve
Heak yea
I’d love to see some new armor patterns
12TH SECTOR front: basically VERDUN + ITALY.
More like Verdun - Somme - Passchendale - Leningrad all combined into one, is what the 12th had to go through.
When you think about it, Clones are literally a lottery of where you'll be placed. Fox pretty much won it by lazing back on Coruscant, and then there's the poor sods who were forced onto Felucia. Not to mention the Jedi you might get might be Krell or some incompetent person or a traitor.
k
I mean, isn't all war that way? You either get to kick it in Hawaii or end up bleeding out on the beaches of Iwo Jima.
I mean life is the same we all had the same opportunities but received different blessing.

“When I was in Doom’s unit for a short time while some of his reserves were still being trained, they gave me a blast shield. It was probably the heaviest piece of equipment I ever carried, but I’m glad they gave it to me, at the end of every battle, it had countless blast marks, but it never melted. I’m glad to say I never even got shot while I was there, but I sure missed it when I went back to the 442nd.” -CS/CT-8711-12 “Cheng”, Captain and Scout of the 442nd Siege Battalion
What is this quote from?
@@grantgold7684 On this day, you won’t find this anywhere. This is the only place you’ll see it written down. It’s just a little fun thing that I did that is fairly popular, so I find myself redoing them a lot and developing this character
@@chengzhou8711 absolutely based, you've got a talent
@@trippyulyanov2012 thanks bro I try. Maybe your kids will read of his exploits
So I'm not the only one who thinks of CT clones never heard? The clones are more fun to think of than the Jedi and it best to think of your own clones. 😆
So, let me get this straight. All clones have the same DNA, yet some get to be commanding officers safely protected in the bunkers, while some are in the frontline suffering days against droids, in unimaginable weather, diseases and local predators.
Pretty much. Tjough i think its all different training
Same dna physically, but different psychological profiles and levels of independence depending on the environment around them. Battalions should be rotated out fairly instead of just implementing them to one set deployment where it is completely unfair. But, it's the republic, and it's a means to an end. Most senators don't care about clones and just see them as numbers towards a goal.
The commanding officers were typically more "gifted" clones... They have the DNA but their personalities varied wildly, and a lot of clones were intentionally bred with certain modifications to their genes and given special training.
At the start of the war a Lieutenant or Captain would've been little more than another Clone specialist like a pilot, but as they gained experience, and many commanders went through ARC Trooper training, they quickly became some of the finest warriors in the GAR.
Thats the nature of training.
Also the Cloning process isn't 100% perfect, so a lot of them end up with subtle differences and their experiences let them develop different personalities.
Different personalities and different training regiments factored into their role in the GAR.
Like you said, some might be a general, commander, or a fleet admiral.
Some are influenced and trained by Jango Fett himself and become gifted ARC Troopers.
Some go through an officer academy due to their exceptional leadership skills.
Some are more intune with the mechanics and become pilots, engineers, and crewmen for the navy.
Some Clones even become surgeons if they are shown to be gifted in the medical field.
So same DNA. But in the end of the day, a Clone's varying personality type, the predetermined role he was intended to fill, and whichever dude mentored him will influence what his career will be in the Clone Army.
Imagine being a clone in the 12th sector army, survived months on a planet that is not suited for combat, seen your brothers die besides you, got shot, stabbed, and poisoned several times but manage to live to fight another day, and then the 501st (or any legion for that matter) showed up for just a day to win the battle, and then taking all the credit for it.
aka the Yanks showing up at the last seconds of WWI and after 1/4 of WWII and claiming that they won both almost single-handedly
@@westernstealth873 UK/france would've lost without the US help
German tech was advancing extremely fast compared to the others.
@@valentindelasierra7517 the USA did help, my comment was about some Americans trying to upstage other nations. Both world wars were won by alliances and not singular nations.
Is it possible to genetically modify your body to be force sensitive? Because if I was a clone and experienced that I would probably try to use the power of the dark side of the force. First I would use it to kill all of the covert ops clone troopers because I’d turn into a deserter, then I would find a light saber from a dead Jedi and use it whenever necessary.
@@westernstealth873 I mean, we literally did more than England and France. Both of which were pretty much useless in both wars. The most recent WWII movie featuring England that I can think of is Dunkirk, and thats about them running away from the Germans, lol. Stop acting like you guys did anything.
The Grand Army of the Republic were scattered and suffered from the vastness of the Galaxy that support and resources were never truly secure their territorial gains. The Clone Army was stretched to its very limits that it really was a miracle that even with Darth Sidious meddling was able a secure a republic victory.
Whilst I have as much hatred for Sidious as any other sane person, keep in mind, he did want to ensure that the Clone Army inevitably would win, as part of his building of the Republic's Military might (to become his enforcement arm as Emperor). He hampered the CIS armies on many occasions as well to assure that victory.
i really feel bad for the cerulean spear command that episode should have been in the clone wars
One like is one droid shot.
Edit:
Super tactical droids are to be set to administative tasks such as prospective accounting
one like is one Jedi and sith shot, the true evil ones
I will not like this comment I am sorry
@@supertacticaldroid1751 sorry better?
I was going to like, but the like counter is at 99.
I thought the title said "tankless battalions" and I was like "I didn't need a detective to tell me not having tanks sucked ass"
Imagine having to deal with all this war and death and killing and you just have to keep moving on as you see your brothers die right in front of you.
Dday pretty much
What about the Spaarti clones -droid attack- on the -Wookiees- war front? They were used at the end of the war and were practically as bad as the B1 battle droids.
Hey maybe you can do a list of you most and least favorite Clone battalion/individual color schemes
As in our personal favorites?
Yes this might inprove the accuracy of B1's for cheap
@Adam and Eve they know what to look for i mean they are idiots
@@geetslys yes, your personal most and least favorites.
Sorry for the late reply...
Jesus , I feel really bad for the 12th , it sounds like the allies in Italy during ww2 considering the bad luck .
Came here for the Doom Platoon!!
I would like to see this battalion go into a battle, without named troopers and no plot armour, I think that would be interesting
Speaking of the 501st legion which Sector Army where they originally under cuz it seems that they where almost literally everywhere during the war
I think they were assigned to the same sector as Corrosaunt so that they would be on standby if guys like the 12th sector couldn't handle a mission on their own, but both the 501st and 212th were the primary legions used in massive scale attacks so they would probably burn more supplies meaning they need to keep resupplying directly from the republic
Th 501st and a few other clone battalions were thuer verison of our marines they were the best of the best and the 501st took orders directly from Palpatine and anakain Skywalker
@@akatsukii-_- The 501st was a legion, not a battalion. The 501st wasn't their version of Marines.
*their
*Anakin
“It’s been said that the 501st got the best of the war. We also got the worst.”
Am I the only one who wonders if one of the clones escaped and started the Geetslys youtube channel?
"Commander Doom and his army of Chads", as you put it, became an instant favorite of mine since the day we first saw them on screen, alongside Jedi Masters Tiplee and Tiplar leading them of course.
I always wondered what Jedi they ended up with after both of the sisters died during the war
Rest in peace
*BAPTISED IN FIRE 40 TO 1 SPIRIT OF JANGO DEATH AND GLORY!!!*
A man of culture as well
Ah yes, a man of culture as well
The bad batch trail is out hell yeah
AMEN
Its hype af
Hyped M8
you will lose no matter what if you're enemy is called the green armored chads
The Clones deserved better.
Clones life matter!
That moment when you say they got lucky because of the falucia theater it really shows you how unlucky theses guys were.
They could do a whole mini series about the horrors these dudes faced jfc
well dang, you couldnt be more right though the 501st grabbed all the glory for basically every sucessful battle while the rest of the legions were sent to hell holes. BOY
Well wasn't that to make things easier when Palpatine made anakin his apprentice and order 66 happened
It's almost as if the 501st were only ever committed when victory was assured. Like with Nepooleon and his Old Guard.
So the other units bleed themselves white for every little victory. Then Vaders Mailed fist delivers the finishing blow.
Would love to see some kotor content sometime soon
I’ve been a fan for so long and you have helped me win my lore war with my best friend we have been Star Wars fans for a long time and usually they are the only games he can play because he is mostly blind but lore is what we both love so these videos really help
Wow, It seems as though they were basically ignored on the work they did or other sectors got the credit.
I’m eating Honey Nut Cheerios rn
Interesting, tell us more.
Nice sounds good hope you enjoyed!

Damn the 12th went through hell no one bew about
Gonna put like and watch the video tomorrow, goodnight 🍺
Aww, that's really kind of you! Sweet dreams!

Doom and his green chads
We gotta start calling our fans the "Chad Army!"
@@geetslys yes doom is the best commander and deserves more screen time.
HAYDEN CHRISTENSEN IS BACK!!!
This sounds like an army for Pong Krell: successful but heavy casualties.
Let's not forget Commander Vern's Battalion that had to dig and fight in trenches during the Verdun Campaign for 6 months in an attempt to break into the Separatist Core Worlds
Why were most of the major battles fought here?
if i was in the 12th sector army i would leave
fake my death and leave
Anyone else think of the games with repeat missions are just like cannon for the battles like felcui
Battlefront 2 2005 (1 battle)
Battlefront 2 2017 (1 battle)
And then on the shows (4 battles)
Adding up to 6 battles all togethor witch honestly seems right
Ye imma go to sleep see y'all tommorow again!
when i was on the first day of the war with hawkbat battalion send to geonosis, i was one of those lucky clones to survive, our battalion was killed, accept for commander deviss me and my corporal.

I love all of the clone wars content man!! Keep it up!!
The Star Wars equivalent of the Lamenters.
This guy gets it
F for our boys in yellow
6:16 we do when fives met Kix in the clone bar he said they won
I would love to hear about the Clones that got the best of the war.
Also, I would have liked to know that Doom and his men were part of the Sector 12 army sooner because then I could have put them in my Battle of Boz Pity fanfiction. Missed opportunity. I just love including as many named Clones as possible in these things. Although, since Tip Lar and Tip Lee would be dead at this point I would have to put his unit under another Jedi's commander, it would either be Mundi, Agen Kolar, or Bayts. Although given how much of a jerk Mundi was as you kindly informed us a while ago and how I had Bayts and his small Clone forces get slaughtered by Grevious, I think I would have given him to Agen.
Can you tell me the name of your fanfiction please
If only 12th Army was a live action miniseries that were made by guys who directed and produced Band of Brothers.
Yay I’ve been waiting for this vid forever
Heavy casualties could have been avoided by doing 2 things, 1 wearing some camouflage and 2 ACTUALLY USING COVER AND SOUND SMALL UNIT TACTICS. I have spoken
Stop giving them advise
@@supertacticaldroid1751 mando'ade will always give tactical advice to clones of a fellow mando'ade
I would loveeeee a animation series of the first 6 months of the war cause the clone wars series take place 6 months into the war. The battles that took place must of been crazy in the beginning and I would love to see anakin rise amoung the ranks those first few months before taking on a apprentice and call it “the lost battles of the clone wars”
6:45 That's one sick battlefront 2 clone screen cap
I'm curious about the 18th Army. Could you do that next?
Hey man
Hey
6:11 "Tup went and blew it"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
See how many different stories happened during the clone wars that not everyone knows about? They could make a series jus on this subject but think of everything else that isn't shown. They could do a show about the Clone Wars and show tons of all new stuff. All different types of missions and planets. They could follow clones and their commanders from different regiments or platoons. I'd also like to see Republic Commandos in live action too
I read *Tankless* Clone Battalions..
Virgin Admiral Trench vs Chad Commander Doom
Kashyyyk you say? Perhaps the 181st Armored Division war part of it
**violent Vietnam flashbacks*
Is there enough on the Battle of Ossus to do a video about it? I’m honestly curious over this, given how Ossus is an ancient Jedi world that would later become the founding grounds for Luke Skywalker’s New Jedi Order.
These guys put $1,000 into a lotto and got 1 cent in return. I hope that their leadership wasn't a hellhole as well.
The Senate got the best of the war.
Ah Geetsly we meet again
I still do not understand why just one tiny Kamino rebellion and the Empire is scrambling to enlist natural born human soldiers.
Job program. Letting billion of core worlder young without job is sure fire way to rebellion on your hand every few years.
i feel sorry for them . they had a really hard time
The planet is called Felucca (misspelled), like the Iraqi city?
Oh hell.
what about General Krell's clone battalion
General Krell was a good ... I just went blank
I think there was a third battle at mon cala a space battle a strike against the shipyards to stop production of republic dreadnauts
I suspect they won Ringo vinda it sounds like 501st was celebrating on corusant
Probably tbh
Sure all clone wars topics are welcome
Well sector 4 is always being overrun and needing reinforcements
And probably the worst horror, being the unlucky ones to be front and center for Sidious repeated manipulations extending the war. They were fighting a front that he couldn't "let" them win, so his pulling strings probably played a part in their repeated losses.
As for their reinforcements, the ones involving Anakin were also certainly Sidious's doing again, giving Anakin the opportunity to seize more glory.
Felucia is my favourite map in battlefront 2
it sounds like the survey core from aot

12th army the lamentors of star wars

The clones got the worst of the Star Wars universe and yet they are really neglected with content from games movies and tv shows. Yeah we got clone wars on cartoon newt work then that beautiful series got wiped and now everyone forgot about that cause bad batch comes out and everyone just nuts on anything g Star Wars but they don’t listen to us till the last minute. We got three movies that wasted the talent of original characters which are now old and are dying. They see this and now are bringing back anikan and obiwan while they have the chance.
Hey I know this is a comment from the 40K universe but the imperium of man called the imperial guard wants their death toll universe record for number 1 back.

Can you do the review on the bad batch trailer?
HEHE MAYBE
Did you see it?
BUT PALPS IS EVIL!
How does an army of only 2-3 million sustain 10s or 100s of thousands in one battle and not be crippled?
Sector armies and spariti clones probably saved the republic since a small army like that couldn’t sustain its self in the galaxy with some of the losses they took
One source suggests the clone army has a billion soldiers. That one online source is my headcanon
Anything smaller than a formation can be considered a unit in military terminology.
@@justjoking5841 In SW a legion was about 10,000, with a sector army being over 100,000. So... Clone army should have been absolutely crippled by the loss of just a couple legions.
@@huntclanhunt9697 Casualties meaning Missing or Wounded or Killed - In Action.
Recovery of troops with Bacta can be near instantaneous in some cases. Troops that are considered missing can be located too. KIA can be replaced by Reserves. The 1.2 Million or 3 Million figure likely means "Main Line//Regular Forces" probably.

I really don't see the point of shedding a tear for the clones.
Not after Order 66.
Not after realizing the whole of Clone War is a big lie concocted by Palpatine.
they may look like and got some of jango's genes, it doesn't mean they are strong as him :C
how does jango compare to his clones?
