Fives: "Thanks for telling me the truth... MOTHER FUCKER!" *Blasts palpatine into swish chease* *meanwhile* Mace: *why do i feel like someone stole my vibe?*
I do think that Fives deserves more than being named the Captain of the 501st, He's a literal hero of the Republic. So, he should be named Marshal Commander of not just the 501st but also the Coruscant Guard (with both units being given its Unit Commander (Appo and Thorn), that way you could honor both Fallen Members of the Command Batch (Rex and Fox) as well as the main representative of the Clones in the Senate Beyond this, there are other things that can be used to expand this story - Yoda, overcome with shame after realizing how the Sith had manage to evolve and infiltrate the Republic under the Jedi's noses as well as how the Jedi has strayed completely from the will of the force, decides to step down as Grandmaster of the Jedi Order and exiling himself from the Order, leaving the Republic behind. - After Yoda left, Plo Koon asumes the role of Grandmaster of the Jedi Order and start making reforms on the Jedi Order to better fit the Jedi as a whole. Among these include the Aboliishment of the attachment rule (which would've caused the Jedi's downfall in the real timelime) after Skywalker has shown so much dedication to the Jedi despite his attachment to his Wife; Re-beginning the Expansion of the Order into the wider Galaxy (Creating several Academies and Outposts throughout); and (save for a "small" group led by Mace Windu which would be Known as the Republic Knights) separate themselves from the political landscape that basically almost destroyed them and finally focus on helping the people of the Galaxy and answering the will of the force - The Senate, after realizing how close the Republic was to fall at the hands of Palpatine, his close associates (including Corporations) and the Sith (after more work of the Sith have been exposed to the public and the Senators as well as the possibility of a event like this happening again, also decide to make several reforms. Among them, the Abolishment of the Russan Reformations, The creation of a Military Force (composed originally of Clones but then, as years go by, being replaced by well trained Soldiers), re-establishing a Full Outlaw of the Sith (Including the Capture/Destruction/Consecration of so many Artifacts, Temples and Shrines of the Sith, including a major Bombarment Campaign in Korriban) and Major Reforms that will force the Corporations to answer directly to the Senate for every move that they make (Finances and all) - Several years after his "death" at the Battle of Coruscant, Palpatine, after being resurrected (through a Ritual) in the Unknown Regions by Sith Loyalists who managed to escape the Republic and the Jedi. Now realizes that, thanks to a "miserable meddling clone", The Republic and the Jedi are now too strong to attempt to corrupt them as well as that if he comes to the Known Galaxy at the moment, he will be hunted down and defeated again. So he decided that the days of attempting to defeat the Republic and the Jedi through corruption and subterfuge are over and that the only way to defeat the Republic and the Jedi is the old fashioned way (Open War and Conquest). So, he will spend the next decades plotting and forming his new Sith Empire in the Unknown Regions and beyond the Galaxy - Unknown to Palpatine at that moment however, another Sith Empire is also forming from outside the Galaxy, led by none other than his former master Darth Plagueis (who survived attempt by Sidious, by using his mastery over Essence Transfer to ensure his escape from the known Galaxy by his spirit traveling to Dormund Kaas, planet that was very unknown at the Galaxy). So there will be a Sith Civil War that last for a few years in the near future with Plagueis becoming the victor and the absolute Sith Emperor. However, the conflict did not go unnoticed by the Jedi (who were starting to penetrate the Unknown Regions and also the clash of the Darksiders was sensed by certain Jedi who became the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order after Plo Koon)
Another thing to remember is Caleb (or as we probably know him better as: Kanan). I assume that Caleb would need a new master. I would say there is a chance that either Kit Fisto or Shaak Ti would take Caleb as an apprentice, but I would say there is a chance Anakin could as well. I personally think that Anakin might have trained him as I do not think Shaak Ti had an apprentice in canon, devoting a lot of her time to assisting on Kamino. I believe Kit Fisto is out as well since Kit Fisto hasn’t had an apprentice since Nadar died at the hands of Grevious, and Nadar was a Jedi knight by the time of the clone wars show. Also, instead of Yoda going into exile, I believe that he would remove himself from the council and grandmaster positions in favor of teaching younglings the ways of the force and acting as more of a keeper of knowledge, as I believe Yoda cares about passing the knowledge of the past down to the future to ensure something like this never happens again.
Love it. My favorite what ifs are for the clones. And especially when it involves Fives. He’s my favorite clone of all time. Its a good day when Fives gets his recognition
Attention to detail, a race against time, the right information to the right people, everybody doing what’s right, and let everybody know the truth… yeah that’s my favorite Star Wars story
What if Tup's inhibitor chip NEVER malfunctioned? Meaning he never kills a jedi and doesn't die himself. How does the survival of him and Fives change the events of order 66?
Personally, i think that he would've been sent with the 332nd division to mandalore and him being there with rex would've guaranteed ahsoka's death considering he would have no way of knowing about order 66 and the chips.
@@finzard887I feel like if Fives was still alive Echo would’ve stayed with Rex instead of going off with the Bad Batch. With Echo being with Ahsoka and Rex during order 66 who knows what happens
@@bolt8412 OOH fair point, Echo's chip didn't work after the techno union messed with him so maybe he would've been able to help ahsoka when it came to the part where they had to lock the doors and remove Rex's chip and maybe he would've been able to buy enough time to help fives aswell.
Purest are trolls. Don't listen to them. What got me and everyone else to join your channel is we love Star Wars and want to hear different takes on the universe by very imaginative story tellers. You're one of the best. Screw the trolls.
I do agree with u. Because straight up Palpatine's plan is smart, but VERY VERY fragile. He has to hope everything goes his way and relied A LOT of luck
The crazy thing is, Paply's plan was fragile, like the Foundation's plan from Asimov's Robots and Empire-verse: it heavily relied on no outside context problems, and they could manipulate such a significant supermajority of the people that any resistance would be run over. The local Kaiju was the former, *_Padme_* and her charisma was problematic for the latter.
Damn…this has to be one of the best Star Wars What-if’s I’ve seen in a LOOOONG time. The divergence point is completely believable and doesn’t call for a Duex ex Machina. (The number of other what-if’s that require a DeM is staggering. Good show on that front.) The characterization of everyone fits well and doesn’t change anything WITHOUT reason. Rex’s last move…perfection for that paragon of Brotherhood. (I can see that Clone walking up to Sid during the Rebellion and shooting him with a battle cry of “For my BROTHERS”, can’t you?) And the bit that inspired this comment: All of the Coruscant Residents rising up in response to Five’s message….great Line in the Sand moment there. Thank you for the video and I’m off to look thru your videos to see if any catch my eye. (No offense, but this video kinda set a really high bar. I’m hoping that there’s one that is 3/4 as good to me.) JSX.
Shame that Rex had to Die, more importantly that Ahsoka wasn’t involved with the Battle of Coruscant as a citizen! Day 37 of my list. What if; Anakin never gave into his feelings for Padme, Aayla Secura was the chosen one and became Darth Talon, Shme Skywalker was adopted by the Tusken Raiders, Boba Fett saved his Tusken family, Count Dooku was a regular count for the CIS, Jabba the Hutt supported the Jedi at the Start of the Clone Wars, and finally, what if Sabine and Ezra fell in love?
I don't know if Palpatine would let himself get shot like that after being so badly wounded. But then again I could be wrong. Loved how Fives inspired the people to stand up and fight. It will always be something awesome. And I can respect your thinking on your story-telling. Well as how you explained it at the end.
14:54 I mean Palps "tanked" 5 RT's blast straight on his desk and get a concussive hit on his spine(assumebly, since it said "bones were broken) from the knockback. He can't easily force lightning Fives in that state of HP, if he was young and physically fit. I could see your point working out, but it's still an old man with space wizard powers and he didn't put points into durability either when he grew from the dark side. I can't see the feasibility of Palps saying "tis but a scratch" and not get himself shot like that.
What If Fives didn't go crazy when told by Palpatine his grand plan? What if he was like "Yea....uhh...whatever sir." Walked away and then told Anakin what the chancellor said? Idk.....Palpatine surely couldn't have banked on Fives' reaction to only be one where he is attacked. I know his reaction was mainly due to the drug he was injected with prior to travel, but still
The eighteenth video of the campaign: I wonder what you could cook up with this idea - "What if Anakin died in the Battle of Coruscant ?". I was personally interested in seeing what would happen if Anakin crashed into a munitions crate or something, dying in the cockpit of his crashed fighter. How would that affect Obi-Wan and Sidious's plans ? Maybe Dooku could finally convince Obi-Wan to join him, or something else. Perhaps with Dooku arrested, the Jedi order would believe him and stop Palpatine, either killing him or arresting him. For the Jedi, the prophecy of the Chosen One would turn out to have been wrong, but in reality, Anakin not living to join Sidious would've probably been a better fate for the galaxy. Alternatively, Sidious could perhaps still salvage the situation, making his empire stronger. I think it could be another 2 part episode.
I always wondered, why didn't Coruscant fed its own millitary with people from the lower levels? Like offer it as a job with an appartment on a level closer to the surface or some other perks. I mean their battle strategy could be "Enemy Fleet appears. Send starfighter corps until Enemy Fleet retreats or is anihilated."
This story is an excellent twist on the usual Jedi versus Sith. The only way to truly defeat the invaders was to have all of Courisant aid in its defense. Five's speech is brilliant in this regard. I love it when you guys say "Okay no more same old same old " and boom! Let's try this!
Honestly whatever way u wanna take the story's aslong as it still makes sense as to why they would make those choices its a good story whichever way u take it
Starting with broadly planning your endings is how you make sure you that 1) you've got an ending and 2) the events flow naturally to it. A lot of fanfic ends up excessively long bc people don't know where they're headed. So, good on you.
Here is an interesting scenario, what if the Republic used a volunteer army of normal citizens alongside the Clones, now what do I mean by this is that in addition to the Clone Armies certain Republic officers and Jedi who think the Clones aren't enough on their own establish volunteer armies to fight against the CIS alongside the Clones. Palpatine agrees to this plan and makes it official policy because he thinks that it will increase the carnage and his approval, little does he know that with a professional army like in the days of the Old Republic fighting alongside the Clones he is dealing with entire groups of people that will not be on board with his plans in the long run blaming him and the Republic leadership for their misery. It also complicates matters for Order 66 as you'll have traditional normal soldiers without chips alongside their Jedi Generals and depending on their relationship with their generals would fight the Clones to protect them and given the Clones don't preform as well against organic opponents (Umbara, Jabiim, Cato Nemoidia, and a host of other worlds where Republic fought locals in addition to the Droid army demonstrate this I mean in Season 2 of the Bad Batch there was a demonstration of basically what those forces actually were like; if Cody and Crosshair were not part of that team then any force the Empire sent would have been destroyed by the defenses) these armies would stay loyal to the Jedi and fight against the Empire. Basically what if Palpatine didn't have full popular support due to a scheme to intensify the carnage that creates a volunteer army as a basic template for his future stormtrooper core only its not as cut and dry because these are people that are similar to the Rebels. Also I'll note volunteer is crucial here being that anyone with an axe to grind against the CIS can join regardless of species, income or any number of things as long as you are Republic Citizen and hate the Seppies you can join in, basically take this as you would the normal non-clone officers but flesh that out with rank-and-file volunteer troops like the Republic in KOTOR 4,000 years earlier
Well as they say the truth will set you free and so it proves here with fives surviving to expose the true evil and horror of Sidious and his plot to overthrow the republic. As well as ironically it was the blaster of a clone that cut off Sidious plot for galactic domination at its knees.
What if Ahsoka joined Luke to take on Sidious and Vader on the 2nd Death Star? What if Boba Fett never fell into the Sarlacc pit in Return of the Jedi? What if the Ewoks did not recognize C-3PO as a god in Return of the Jedi? What if Leia was captured and turned to the dark side during the Original Trilogy? What if Yoda went to Tatooine to watch over and train Luke after Revenge of the Sith? What if Vader's secret apprentice (Starkiller) was canon...survived the battle aboard the Death Star and was Captured by the Sith?
@@helljumper2565 My guess would be his constant visions of something dark coming towards the galaxy eventually tugged on his one heart string and he began to genuinely care about the galaxy.
What if a rogue jedi from decades before the prequels had a vision of the clone wars and creates a super weapon for the jedi to use against the droid army?
I got a few interesting what if's, including some sequel what if's. • What If Anakin Skywalker was a mandalorian jedi. - he could have been born on Mandalore and taken to the temple. Maybe he finds the Darksaber. • What If Palpatine and Sidious were two separate people. - Palpatine could still be a senator/chancellor that watched over Anakin with NOBLE intentions. Sidious could be someone else trying to manipulate him. Curious how Anakin would react when he's right about Palpatine. • What If Kylo Ren was Luke Skywalker's son. - curious how Luke would react to his son becoming Kylo Ren • What If Rey was Kylo Ren's sister. - would love to see how you would tell this story. • What If Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi were Half Brothers. - Basically Shmi could have been married and had Obi-Wan but they separated. Then she has Anakin as normal. Over the course of the story they discover that they're brothers. • What If Rey joined Kylo Ren in The Last Jedi. • What If Anakin Skywalker was sent to Malacore(the planet in Rebels S2 final) - Palpatine could send him their to try to corrupt him. Maybe his lightsaber gets destroyed and crafts a cross-guard lightsaber. • What If Anakin Skywalker created the Knights of Ren. • What If Kylo Ren turned to the light and Rey turned to the Dark side in The Last Jedi.
Hmmm.. so Sidious would be someone posing as Palpatine to abuse the semi-fatherly relationship Palps built with Anakin, which in this universe is just an old childless democratic dude connecting with a youth who needs a dad?
@@ChristopherWalters-vc1nm thanks man, I hope he does them at some point. Especially What If Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi were half brothers and What If Anakin Skywalker was a Mandalorian Jedi.
I absolutely love the populist angle this video took, with the people essentially being the ones to tear down the plans for the Empire. Together we are stronger than any oppressors.
This is an impossible scenario…. If the separatist could always just rally a giant fleet at a moments, notice, attack Coruscant punch through its defenses, and lay waste to the capital city…. Something is deeply deeply deeply wrong with the galactic republic. What happened to the planetary shield, what happened to the thousands of star destroyers in orbit of this planet? What happened to all of the defenses?
@@JainaSolo26 is it possible that the supreme chancellor could order the defense fleet to leave the system turn off the shields and leave the planet defenseless? Theoretically, yes. Is that at all probable or likely to have happened? Hell no. The timeframe here simply does not work. It’s one thing for Palpatine to have a back door into the planetary shield network and be able to turn it off, but it is entirely another thing for him to make thousands of star destroyers leave at a moment notice or that he was able to get Doku to mass an invasion fleet and attack within an hour
"And then they remembered Bacta tanks had been a thing since 30 min after Qui-Gon died. They put Rex inside, and he woke up the next day fine. Because no one with plot armor dies in Star Wars"
what if the rebels found some kaminoans with some cloning equipment and made a new clone army to fight the empire ? or if the rebels found clone wars ships and equipment and used them ?
I though the corruscant guard are the only clone legion thats fully aware of what palpatine was up to and just fine with it since the corruscant guard are programed to be royal to the chancellor
Some debate Fox is more loyal to the senate (on paper) despite Palp's personal influence over Fox. So it could be possible, that Palpatine lost his game and Fox "figures" out to be in the winning side.
@@Blackandwhitecat-to5ll in the video, it doesn't say Grievous died, so he's still on the planet, and he's a big threat on the ground, while the separatists always had a naval advantage throughout the entire war
What if anakin was piloting before attack of the clones and sensed ventress fall to the darkside as her master died and took his ship to the planet to investigate. Perhaps starting a romance as they are very similar in their stories. Also what if ahsoka taught ben skywalker as she saw him as history repeating itself. What if anakin was a jedi watchmen or wayfinder. What if anakin went with kenobi to face maul and savage instead of adi gallia. What if anakin fell in love with luminara or your own version of aayla secura romance. What if oppo rancis trained anakin. What if anakin met and fell in love with ventress just before the clone wars just after her masters death. What if anakin became a jedi sentinel like a watchmen or one of those who find younglings. What if evan piel became a mentor or second master to anakin. Or anakin became a healer either before or after his mother death could be related to his friendship with offee or alternatively what if he was trained by tra sa who taught windu and actually did not forbid attachment as shown by her relationship with tholme , they could become like a pseudo parents to anakin and train him away from the temple in azati martial arts and from trasa the living force as she is a plant lady so imagine anakin controlling plant life.
I'm sorry Yoda had to kill Dooku in this story, but he had no choice. He needed to do what was necessary. However, I'm glad Fives got to kill Palpatine for attacking the Jedi and the controlling the republic. And not only did Jedi and Clone Troopers save the day, but also citizens who lived on Curcecent. ❤ Also RIP Captain Rex. 🙏 A true soldier of the republic.
Fives (high): "Ooh, a shiny new breastplate! Lemme just try this on, I'll tuck it right in here!" Fox, Sidious, and the whole damn timeline: 😐 "...Bruh"
5 Minute Mark in Honor of Fives
55:55
Respect
It would have to be 55:55 for it to honor Fives
55:55
He will be remberd
Palpatine: No way, I am a Sith Lord. I can’t be killed by merely an Arc Trooper. A pawn of my plan!
It's almost like when you create an army to kill Jedi... you run the risk of them also being able to kill Sith
Fives: "Thanks for telling me the truth... MOTHER FUCKER!" *Blasts palpatine into swish chease*
*meanwhile* Mace: *why do i feel like someone stole my vibe?*
I do think that Fives deserves more than being named the Captain of the 501st, He's a literal hero of the Republic. So, he should be named Marshal Commander of not just the 501st but also the Coruscant Guard (with both units being given its Unit Commander (Appo and Thorn), that way you could honor both Fallen Members of the Command Batch (Rex and Fox) as well as the main representative of the Clones in the Senate
Beyond this, there are other things that can be used to expand this story
- Yoda, overcome with shame after realizing how the Sith had manage to evolve and infiltrate the Republic under the Jedi's noses as well as how the Jedi has strayed completely from the will of the force, decides to step down as Grandmaster of the Jedi Order and exiling himself from the Order, leaving the Republic behind.
- After Yoda left, Plo Koon asumes the role of Grandmaster of the Jedi Order and start making reforms on the Jedi Order to better fit the Jedi as a whole. Among these include the Aboliishment of the attachment rule (which would've caused the Jedi's downfall in the real timelime) after Skywalker has shown so much dedication to the Jedi despite his attachment to his Wife; Re-beginning the Expansion of the Order into the wider Galaxy (Creating several Academies and Outposts throughout); and (save for a "small" group led by Mace Windu which would be Known as the Republic Knights) separate themselves from the political landscape that basically almost destroyed them and finally focus on helping the people of the Galaxy and answering the will of the force
- The Senate, after realizing how close the Republic was to fall at the hands of Palpatine, his close associates (including Corporations) and the Sith (after more work of the Sith have been exposed to the public and the Senators as well as the possibility of a event like this happening again, also decide to make several reforms. Among them, the Abolishment of the Russan Reformations, The creation of a Military Force (composed originally of Clones but then, as years go by, being replaced by well trained Soldiers), re-establishing a Full Outlaw of the Sith (Including the Capture/Destruction/Consecration of so many Artifacts, Temples and Shrines of the Sith, including a major Bombarment Campaign in Korriban) and Major Reforms that will force the Corporations to answer directly to the Senate for every move that they make (Finances and all)
- Several years after his "death" at the Battle of Coruscant, Palpatine, after being resurrected (through a Ritual) in the Unknown Regions by Sith Loyalists who managed to escape the Republic and the Jedi. Now realizes that, thanks to a "miserable meddling clone", The Republic and the Jedi are now too strong to attempt to corrupt them as well as that if he comes to the Known Galaxy at the moment, he will be hunted down and defeated again. So he decided that the days of attempting to defeat the Republic and the Jedi through corruption and subterfuge are over and that the only way to defeat the Republic and the Jedi is the old fashioned way (Open War and Conquest). So, he will spend the next decades plotting and forming his new Sith Empire in the Unknown Regions and beyond the Galaxy
- Unknown to Palpatine at that moment however, another Sith Empire is also forming from outside the Galaxy, led by none other than his former master Darth Plagueis (who survived attempt by Sidious, by using his mastery over Essence Transfer to ensure his escape from the known Galaxy by his spirit traveling to Dormund Kaas, planet that was very unknown at the Galaxy). So there will be a Sith Civil War that last for a few years in the near future with Plagueis becoming the victor and the absolute Sith Emperor. However, the conflict did not go unnoticed by the Jedi (who were starting to penetrate the Unknown Regions and also the clash of the Darksiders was sensed by certain Jedi who became the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order after Plo Koon)
Yeah being honest, alongside the story in which the chips are discovered, this would be a really cool story to follow through.
I think YOU ought to take up making Star Wars 'what-if' videos as well. You have good ideas.
Dude, you should totally write that out! I'd read/watch it!
Make it it is a great idea for a what if
Another thing to remember is Caleb (or as we probably know him better as: Kanan). I assume that Caleb would need a new master. I would say there is a chance that either Kit Fisto or Shaak Ti would take Caleb as an apprentice, but I would say there is a chance Anakin could as well. I personally think that Anakin might have trained him as I do not think Shaak Ti had an apprentice in canon, devoting a lot of her time to assisting on Kamino. I believe Kit Fisto is out as well since Kit Fisto hasn’t had an apprentice since Nadar died at the hands of Grevious, and Nadar was a Jedi knight by the time of the clone wars show.
Also, instead of Yoda going into exile, I believe that he would remove himself from the council and grandmaster positions in favor of teaching younglings the ways of the force and acting as more of a keeper of knowledge, as I believe Yoda cares about passing the knowledge of the past down to the future to ensure something like this never happens again.
Honestly 5 is death was probably one of the hardest ones for me and for Rex. Because when he died something change in rex
Jesus Christ the citizens rising up gave me shivers, that would be an incredible sight
The Chancellor is gonna regret not making the Corisaunt Guard a Legion.

Nice to see Fox got some love, I honestly like his armor set. He's my second favorite clone, Fives being No. 1 favorite
Yea glade he figured out fives was telling the truth and tried to do something about it
Fox deserved better
I haven't seen "What if Ahsoka and Plo Koon didn't save Mace and Anakin from the crashed Venator on Vanqor", wonder how that'll change the Clone Wars

Idk.....Palpatine surely couldn't have banked on Fives' reaction to only be one where he is attacked. I know his reaction was mainly due to the drug he was injected with prior to travel, but still
Palpatine could just use the force to determine his reaction
W fox for realizing he hurt his brother for no reason
Don't mind those comments. I love the way the endings are different, always has me coming back for more!
Fives is such a W character.

Gotta say, I absolutely love the 2005 Star Wars Battlefront II clone battle com chatter! Brilliant addition!
I'm surprised you didn't have the Grand Inquisitor kill Fives. He was working with Palpatine as far back as the bombing of the Jedi Hanger
Found your channel recently and I love your takes on these what-ifs. Keep it coming! I frequently have your videos on while I’m working from home.
Fives Lives?! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS🔥
I always wondered, why didn't Coruscant fed its own millitary with people from the lower levels? Like offer it as a job with an appartment on a level closer to the surface or some other perks.
I mean their battle strategy could be "Enemy Fleet appears. Send starfighter corps until Enemy Fleet retreats or is anihilated."
Thankyou for giving Fives justice for what happened to him❤
I like your stories, well thought out and find a nice narrative flow. Keep it up.
What if Anakin force ghost gave visions to the Jedi council about the future in the 2 year of the clone wars.

Starting with broadly planning your endings is how you make sure you that 1) you've got an ending and 2) the events flow naturally to it. A lot of fanfic ends up excessively long bc people don't know where they're headed. So, good on you.
Here is an interesting scenario, what if the Republic used a volunteer army of normal citizens alongside the Clones, now what do I mean by this is that in addition to the Clone Armies certain Republic officers and Jedi who think the Clones aren't enough on their own establish volunteer armies to fight against the CIS alongside the Clones. Palpatine agrees to this plan and makes it official policy because he thinks that it will increase the carnage and his approval, little does he know that with a professional army like in the days of the Old Republic fighting alongside the Clones he is dealing with entire groups of people that will not be on board with his plans in the long run blaming him and the Republic leadership for their misery. It also complicates matters for Order 66 as you'll have traditional normal soldiers without chips alongside their Jedi Generals and depending on their relationship with their generals would fight the Clones to protect them and given the Clones don't preform as well against organic opponents (Umbara, Jabiim, Cato Nemoidia, and a host of other worlds where Republic fought locals in addition to the Droid army demonstrate this I mean in Season 2 of the Bad Batch there was a demonstration of basically what those forces actually were like; if Cody and Crosshair were not part of that team then any force the Empire sent would have been destroyed by the defenses) these armies would stay loyal to the Jedi and fight against the Empire.
Basically what if Palpatine didn't have full popular support due to a scheme to intensify the carnage that creates a volunteer army as a basic template for his future stormtrooper core only its not as cut and dry because these are people that are similar to the Rebels. Also I'll note volunteer is crucial here being that anyone with an axe to grind against the CIS can join regardless of species, income or any number of things as long as you are Republic Citizen and hate the Seppies you can join in, basically take this as you would the normal non-clone officers but flesh that out with rank-and-file volunteer troops like the Republic in KOTOR 4,000 years earlier
14:58 Something delightful about a master of the dark side getting laid out by good old fashioned close air support.
The first time i felt sorry for Fox.
Well as they say the truth will set you free and so it proves here with fives surviving to expose the true evil and horror of Sidious and his plot to overthrow the republic. As well as ironically it was the blaster of a clone that cut off Sidious plot for galactic domination at its knees.
9:40 yahoo! Let’s go fordo!!!!
What if Ahsoka joined Luke to take on Sidious and Vader on the 2nd Death Star?
What if Boba Fett never fell into the Sarlacc pit in Return of the Jedi?
What if the Ewoks did not recognize C-3PO as a god in Return of the Jedi?
What if Leia was captured and turned to the dark side during the Original Trilogy?
What if Yoda went to Tatooine to watch over and train Luke after Revenge of the Sith?
What if Vader's secret apprentice (Starkiller) was canon...survived the battle aboard the Death Star and was Captured by the Sith?
It's my second request. What if Palpatine turned to the light side after the execution of the Order 66? It will be interesting to see how it goes.
How would that even work???
@@helljumper2565it wouldn't.
Considering he could undo order 66, there's something there. With Anakin and Maul both alive, the Rule of Two would still continue.
@@helljumper2565 My guess would be his constant visions of something dark coming towards the galaxy eventually tugged on his one heart string and he began to genuinely care about the galaxy.
That would *never* happen, citizen.
Let's go! Love tha unique stories you come up with 😊
What if Kalani was not alone in refusing the shutdown order?
Good soldiers follow orders.
-Clone Troopers (most notably Tup and Crosshair)
What if a rogue jedi from decades before the prequels had a vision of the clone wars and creates a super weapon for the jedi to use against the droid army?
That’s what the Clones were, sir?
What if Hondo Onaca was the chosen one?
What if Anakin told the council about Darth Plaguies the wise?
What if Wato was the chosen one?
What if Revan was reborn around the time Obi-Wan was born. Joining the Jedi and having some memories (mostly his tactical mind and some Force powers)
I got a few interesting what if's, including some sequel what if's.
• What If Anakin Skywalker was a mandalorian jedi.
- he could have been born on Mandalore and taken to the temple. Maybe he finds the Darksaber.
• What If Palpatine and Sidious were two separate people.
- Palpatine could still be a senator/chancellor that watched over Anakin with NOBLE intentions. Sidious could be someone else trying to manipulate him. Curious how Anakin would react when he's right about Palpatine.
• What If Kylo Ren was Luke Skywalker's son.
- curious how Luke would react to his son becoming Kylo Ren
• What If Rey was Kylo Ren's sister.
- would love to see how you would tell this story.
• What If Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi were Half Brothers.
- Basically Shmi could have been married and had Obi-Wan but they separated. Then she has Anakin as normal. Over the course of the story they discover that they're brothers.
• What If Rey joined Kylo Ren in The Last Jedi.
• What If Anakin Skywalker was sent to Malacore(the planet in Rebels S2 final)
- Palpatine could send him their to try to corrupt him. Maybe his lightsaber gets destroyed and crafts a cross-guard lightsaber.
• What If Anakin Skywalker created the Knights of Ren.
• What If Kylo Ren turned to the light and Rey turned to the Dark side in The Last Jedi.
Hmmm.. so Sidious would be someone posing as Palpatine to abuse the semi-fatherly relationship Palps built with Anakin, which in this universe is just an old childless democratic dude connecting with a youth who needs a dad?
All of these ideas would be very cool to see.
@@ChristopherWalters-vc1nm thanks man, I hope he does them at some point.
Especially What If Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi were half brothers and What If Anakin Skywalker was a Mandalorian Jedi.
"Tiss but a flesh wound!"
I absolutely love the populist angle this video took, with the people essentially being the ones to tear down the plans for the Empire. Together we are stronger than any oppressors.
Press F to pay respects

If only Fox would use bloody STUN shot instead of focking Bolt…
What if ventress and the nightsisters actually succeeded in assassinating count dooku?
This is an impossible scenario…. If the separatist could always just rally a giant fleet at a moments, notice, attack Coruscant punch through its defenses, and lay waste to the capital city…. Something is deeply deeply deeply wrong with the galactic republic. What happened to the planetary shield, what happened to the thousands of star destroyers in orbit of this planet? What happened to all of the defenses?
Palatine turned off the shield he moved the star destroyers he controlled the Senet and the defaces of the planet its wholely possible.
@@JainaSolo26 is it possible that the supreme chancellor could order the defense fleet to leave the system turn off the shields and leave the planet defenseless? Theoretically, yes. Is that at all probable or likely to have happened? Hell no.
The timeframe here simply does not work. It’s one thing for Palpatine to have a back door into the planetary shield network and be able to turn it off, but it is entirely another thing for him to make thousands of star destroyers leave at a moment notice or that he was able to get Doku to mass an invasion fleet and attack within an hour
The one time fox isn't an asshole and he fucking dies 😂
That was good, sad to see Rex go but he died saving his brother. :)
What if Jango and by extension the clones were force sensitive
"And then they remembered Bacta tanks had been a thing since 30 min after Qui-Gon died. They put Rex inside, and he woke up the next day fine. Because no one with plot armor dies in Star Wars"
what if the rebels found some kaminoans with some cloning equipment and made a new clone army to fight the empire ? or if the rebels found clone wars ships and equipment and used them ?
Fives was the chosen one
The way Fox dies by Vader or Sideous is inevitable especially since he dies the same way in both
Always Remember Never Forget Arc CT-5555
What if Crosshair stayed with the bad batch
What if Bode never betrayed Cal Kestis
What if Jerec trained Anakin Skywalker?
What if Fox stunned Fives instead of shooting to kill?
Well done with Fives
Rip fox, he tried to redeem himself just to die
If fives alive then he will meet echo again😊
Aka if commander fox realized their blasters have stun modes
Makes you realize how shit clone armor is.
Somehow ARC Trooper Fives returned
fox was the worst clone ever... can't even set his blaster to stun
I though the corruscant guard are the only clone legion thats fully aware of what palpatine was up to and just fine with it since the corruscant guard are programed to be royal to the chancellor
What if Vader had figured out that Leia was his daughter?
What if Shaak Ti watched Fives herself instead of trusting Nala Se to do it?
#1 5s the 1st Rebel rock on. you have some of the coolest stories!!!
What if commander fox didn’t shoot Fives or killed palpatine?
Rip Rex 😭😭😭😭
Even though I hate Fox, the best revenge is not being like Fox and become better than Fox.
What if: the jedi were on the side of the Confederacy
CIS
Loved the story, but you killed my goat Rex again😢
All of this could have happened if Fox had just set his blaster to stun.
The most unrealistic thing about this story is Fox figuring out that Palpatine was evil.
Some debate Fox is more loyal to the senate (on paper) despite Palp's personal influence over Fox. So it could be possible, that Palpatine lost his game and Fox "figures" out to be in the winning side.
I'd argue the most unrealistic part would be that the confederacy would lose, as Palpatine was the one holding them from crushing the republic
@@mugurelpena5723 Could the confederacy easily match strength in numbers? I'm guessing the civillian ships blot out the sky for the space battle.
@@Blackandwhitecat-to5ll in the video, it doesn't say Grievous died, so he's still on the planet, and he's a big threat on the ground, while the separatists always had a naval advantage throughout the entire war
@@mugurelpena5723 Explain this then 17:36, because you haven't been listening properly. Mace Windu took out Grievous earlier in the video.
Got an idea what if anakin skywalker was calmed by padme in their bedroom
Just wish Echo found out what happened to Rex
What if general hux went with poe, finn, and chewie instead of staying with the first order
*ahem* Nuber 5 is alive! ....And I just showed my age lol
Johnny 5!
What if anakin was piloting before attack of the clones and sensed ventress fall to the darkside as her master died and took his ship to the planet to investigate. Perhaps starting a romance as they are very similar in their stories.
Also what if ahsoka taught ben skywalker as she saw him as history repeating itself.
What if anakin was a jedi watchmen or wayfinder.
What if anakin went with kenobi to face maul and savage instead of adi gallia.
What if anakin fell in love with luminara or your own version of aayla secura romance.
What if oppo rancis trained anakin.
What if anakin met and fell in love with ventress just before the clone wars just after her masters death.
What if anakin became a jedi sentinel like a watchmen or one of those who find younglings.
What if evan piel became a mentor or second master to anakin.
Or anakin became a healer either before or after his mother death could be related to his friendship with offee or alternatively what if he was trained by tra sa who taught windu and actually did not forbid attachment as shown by her relationship with tholme , they could become like a pseudo parents to anakin and train him away from the temple in azati martial arts and from trasa the living force as she is a plant lady so imagine anakin controlling plant life.
All i can say is Ironic at the 15 minute mark.
Also maybe do a part 2.
Literally what the founding fathers intended.
10 min crew
What if Anakin was framed for the Jedi Temple Bombing?
I thought that armor should have taken one blaster bolt.
Did they make em stronger or was the armor weaker?
Nice story, just a thing it wouldn't be a blockade, it's a regular fleet defending coruscant they aren't blockading their own capital
Thanks for the amazing video ❤
Outstanding video!
How could you kill off Rex? RIP Rex
Fives was my favorite character in the show and this scene was so sad for me
I'm sorry Yoda had to kill Dooku in this story, but he had no choice. He needed to do what was necessary. However, I'm glad Fives got to kill Palpatine for attacking the Jedi and the controlling the republic. And not only did Jedi and Clone Troopers save the day, but also citizens who lived on Curcecent. ❤
Also RIP Captain Rex. 🙏 A true soldier of the republic.
Bravo again dude! Bravo! 🤟
Fox realizing he made a mistake and tried to fix it just to die like he originally did gives me some more respect to this version of Commander Fox.
Fives (high): "Ooh, a shiny new breastplate! Lemme just try this on, I'll tuck it right in here!"
Fox, Sidious, and the whole damn timeline: 😐 "...Bruh"
Love all of your stories
