we’re back to good old fashioned war crimes
Golden comment
Now where just missing the piss poor shooting and we’re back in business
The Empire’s back baby
Can't be a War Crime if there no war yet.
If I were on that team and saw Crosshair go full Vader by executing a teammate then I would immediately have turned the flamethrower on him.
I figured this series would get just a little darker than Rebels, but there’s no way they’re going to execute unarmed women and children- oh.
Kind of amazing that this series can balance something like that with a warm fuzzy ending of a little girl getting her own room.
convergence of both The Clone Wars and Rebels
Dude when I saw them execute the women and children I started yelling I was like this is on Disney+ this is Disney holy Jesus crap. So I freaked out for like five minutes.
@@josuequintanilla9856 yeah it was amazing, fortunate son should have been outtro fro that episode
@@plokoon7240 Yep. I was disappointed that they couldn’t really do much with Saw Gererra in Rebels so I’m really looking forward to seeing him go as extreme as his reputation suggests.
But the four non clones they wear clone armor no stormtrooper armor yet and I hope the bad batch will remove there chip soon and crosshairs will be and omega dose look like jango sister Arla
“If you clones are so good then why does the Empire need us?”
Um because the clones already did the hard part.
SMH everyone forget about my Clone homies
I was waiting for Crosshair to say, "Because recruits are cheaper."
But the four non clones they wear clone armor no stormtrooper armor yet and I hope the bad batch will remove there chip soon and crosshairs will be and omega dose look like jango sister Arla
@@TheDarthChief Crosshair: "You think you're better than me?", he pauses for a moment, "You're just cheaper."
@@TheDarthChief me too
"We signed up to be soldiers! Not exacutioners!"
"You wanna know why I was put in charge? It's because good soldiers follow orders."
"We signed up to be soldiers! Not executioners" oh dude, you know nothing about the empire do you?
They where the first recruits the empire knew nothing about the empire.
@@jh-ij4by They did not kill the grandma. She was not even with the group. Probably, she was already off world or with the rest of Saw Gerrera's group.
That is the whole point of being a soldier, let it be execute as ordered, you have to follow it. That reg being part of the elite team is beyond me.
I completely expected that guy to be the one to just blindly take orders. Nice subversion.
Crosshair was the reason Stormtroopers received their brutal nature. Crosshair showed those recruits this is how The Empire operates.
Exactly
What the...
@@lefloch9983 lol
@@lefloch9983 Oh not again!
I dont think it's a coincidence his helmets visor shape closely resembles an Imperial Stormtrooper.
Love it. Creepy what they did to Crosshair, especially with his voice, making him come off as Stormtrooper-like.
He’s basically going to be the template for the Empire’s ideal soldier.
Gunning down civilians... man that was something.
But the four non clones they wear clone armor no stormtrooper armor yet and I hope the bad batch will remove there chip soon and crosshairs will be and omega dose look like jango sister Arla
He sounds like Thrawn
Cross Hair is Snoke.
What I realy liked was the twist that the guy who at first was glad for the empire existing and okay with continuing as a soldier for it was at the end the one with the best moral compass.
He braged about the ignoration of the Republic he endured and about Clones being redundant, but in the end he was still a soldier of the Republic, not of the empire.
And he faced the consequences for having a spine in this new order.
yup. exactly.
Agreed. I've always found stories about people who's only real fault was giving their loyalty to the wrong people/institution to be the most tragic.
That guy's story was just that. He placed his trust in the Empire, and it killed him. Truly shows how evil the Empire is.
I was worried that Wrecker’s headache was a sign that the inhibitor chips were trying to function. I dont want that to happen and lets hope they took out the chips bu next episode
Yeah that and the inhibitor chip scanner scene is a very unsubtle indication that they are gonna touch it soon.
He mentioned that he "heard" the order but had no clue to it in ep 1, pretty much a red flag here, finding rex might be their salvation to get rid of it..
Same
Ooh... good point. That’s cause for worry.
I think something hit his head in the crash and his head already has scaring from other injuries
I think Kevin Kiner deserves major props for this series. This may be his best work yet, especially in this particular episode.
For sure! The music in clone wars didn't really stand out to me until the last 2 seasons but for this show, the music has stood out to me since the opening.
Agreed. This episode was firing on all cylinders, and Kevin Kiner's soundtrack was a huge part of that. I especially loved the dark synth during Crosshair's scenes.
I actually thought the reason Wrecker kept complaining about his head and rubbing it so exaggeratedly was because he was faking it so he could stay on the ship to build the room for Omega. That's what I figured at least when we saw what he was working on.
This show got dark fast Jesus.
I mean the first scene was Order 66. But I guess we might be used to Jedi dying by now.
Honestly the voice acting for the bad batch is what I'm so impressed by! It's amazing to think the clones are all voiced by one person, but each of them sound so unique. In this episode, Crosshair's performance was especially chilling. I appreciate how Echo sounds the most soldier-like of them all becuase he's still a 'reg' Wrecker is so much fun and Tech is so blunt all the time.
Also the animation is just so much quality!
yea, their voice sounds so different but all by one persone, that's interesting
Fun fact: Vice Admiral Rampart is voiced by Noshir Dala who plays Charles Smith in Red Dead Redemption 2 and Varko Grey in Star Wars: Squadrons.
Thanks, I wondered which other _Star Wars_ character I knew his voice from!
I knew he sounded familiar. I thought Battlefront II.
@@Elvisbackpack Even if I didn't know he was going to be in this I would have recognised his voice instantly the moment his character appeared in the flesh.
best bro Charles
@@Matt-bg5wg You gotta love Charles.
I'm still hoping Wreckers head injury is a red herring because Hunter made him feel guilty about trying to take Omega's food ration as well as her not having a place to sleep. Therefore he stays on ship to rectify this problem.
Or it could be his inhibitor chip
I loved that you touched on the character models. It is so impressive to me that there is not only a variety in background characters but even the main characters actually change clothes according to the occasion. When Hunter and Wrecker had on more civilian type clothing last episode I was really impressed.
Ok they actually managed to make crosshair cold and heartless, yet some how likeable. I was rooting for him, to teach that annoying enlisted trooper a lesson. And boy he did.
Crosshair's voice sounds a bit like the original Boba Fett's voice from Empire Strikes Back.
I did not see Crosshair just massacring the civilians coming. I hated it and loved it at the same time. Before that I could see them turning off Crosshair's chip and he would be back normal but I am not so sure anymore after that.
The Winter Soldier comparison is now complete with killing of innocents while under mind control.
His face when he sat down on his bunk... just that glimpse of hurt and missing his friends. I’d say imagine his emotional state when he comes off the chip, all that guilt over what he’s done, but I’m too scared to imagine it.
This is why clones will always be superior to recruits. At the end of the day, the clones will always follow orders, not matter how brutal.
What about Cut and the Bad Batch sans Crosshair?
You... do realize that's a flaw and a bad thing
The difference between clones and recruits is the existence of the inhibitor chip. This is what makes clones follow orders without question, orders that many of them would otherwise not follow.
With the chip at least..without it the clones are perfectly capable of not following orders.
@@TheCoolCucumber I think he just has a distaste for clones, and vestiges of the Republic in general. Remember the Tarkin doctrine, bigger is better. There are billions of potential conscripts and volunteers out there at half the cost, but Kamino is just one little planet.
"It's not a monster, it's just hungry." Same.
(Spoilers)
I always feel sad when they kill of Twileks and Togrutas for no particular reason and my heart was broken when they killed the poor Twilek lady in Saws camp.
But I like how Omega is turning around and I like how she is the best parts of Ezra and Ashoka but less wimsicals than they were in theyre first seasons.
This episode makes me worried for Wrecker since he is one of my favorite in the bunch and the only of the bad batch I could cosplay as so I hope he is not the first one to turn rouge and and that Tech and his gadget can save him.
But what I like the most in this series is how they show us the transition process from the republic to the empire and how fast the empire did move to supress the galaxy. I would have guess that it would have take them many years to tighten theyre grip of a whole galaxy but now they are rolling in supression meassurements within days of its creation. It makes me wonder how much of did Palpatine and the top ranks of the empire had planned when they took over? Cause installing chaincodes and starting to recruit stormtroopers should take a while even for the empire, right? And then I wonder when we will start to see the first of its classic ships like the Tie fighers and the Stardestroyers? Will they also be implemated early on?
But I really like this series so far and if its keep up its works over this and many more seasons I cant be happier. Johan.
I thought Omega carying Crosshair's wespons kit might have been pretty heavy, maybe heavier than she could handle anyway. They didn't really make a point of it, but maybe something subtle?
Even I'm worried for Wrecker. The inhibitor chips are the real villains of this show.
At the end of the episode, I kinda figured wrecker was over exaggerating his injury so he could build Omega a room on the ship.
That’s what I’d thought too, acting really hurt so as to not be needed outside so he could build Omega’s room while they were gone
Thank you, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that!
The new episode proved that's not the case 😔
I like the idea if she has each of their specialties inside of her. She is the sum of their parts. The idea that a super soldier is in this little girl sounds like interesting juxtaposition.
I liked the first couple episodes, but I wasn't expecting such a great episode so quickly! Usually these shows take a bit to really find their footing and hit their stride. This episode got way darker than I expected, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
crosshair was a badass in this episode
And it got very dark pretty quick
I'm really hoping he'll get a Redeemed story
No doubt he'll die a hero
Loved the parallels between Omega finding a nonviolent solution to get the part and Crosshair’s use of completely unnecessary violence.
I'm loving this mystery surrounding what happened to the clone program and Kamino once the Empire is formed. Timeline-wise, is it even possible that we're looking at Iden Versio in the elite recruit squad? That character model looked way too specific to be a throwaway.
Inferno was formed in response to the Death Star’s destruction. Iden was a tie pilot before being recruited.
You missed that the ship the insurgents were loading on Onderon looked like a basilisk war droid from KOTOR II, from the scene where the player rides one into battle... on Onderon.
A few other thoughts:
1) I no longer think Omega might Force sensitive. I think what we saw in episode 1 was her innate, heightened intuition and her knowledge of the inhibitor chips, *not* Force precognition, as well as her clone ability to sharp-shoot like Crosshair.
2) The Bad Batch know about the chips, but don't know about taking them out yet. Remember that only Rex and Tup had theirs removed, and Tup is dead. I suspect it'll be meeting up with Rex that will clue them in to actually *removing* them if they can't just be made inert.
I’m curious if Crosshair’s “Elite squad” of recruits will be the first death troopers. I can’t see them just going from the shadowy armor and green visors to bright white bucket heads
More like dead troopers
Always been wondering why I am captivated by Hunter and Omega's father-daughter dynamic and I finally realized why. They reminded me a lot of Geralt and Ciri from The Witcher 3.
having subtitles on when they first start tracking the beast:
@@sharilshahed6106 Looks like rain!
I just wanna say Happy Birthday to the maker himself George Lucas 😎🙌🎊
Really getting some Rey vibes from Omega-her quick instincts in the first episode, her awe at seeing the outside world in the second episode, and her ability to empathise with the creatures other people might find hostile in this episode.
@Emperor Maoh Shin Chandelier Mirage I can totally imagine Tarkin telling Crosshair: "Bested by a girl who had never held a blaster? You failed!"
What if they added her into the show to demonstrate how they can write a better female protagonist unlike the Kathleen group
@@yeetus_reetus_deeleetus I never really understood why people think there's a division, the "Kathleen group" is just Lucasfilm lol. Without her Filoni wouldn't have been able to co-create the Mandalorian. That's because her background is producing, not writing. It's about helping the storyteller achieve their vision, I get that you may not like some of the stories told, but that's not really indicative of a civil war going on in Lucasfilm. At the end of the day, some stories will be for us, some won't, and that's ok
Woahh mind blown that Omega could be all four🤯
I loved the part where wrecka (as omega would say) made her own room
ricka
For a moment there i thought you made a ship name
I heard it as "wricka".
Fun fact: Rampart is voiced by the same actor who played Varko Grey. I wondered why his voice sounded familar XD
this is probably the most intimdating portrayal ive seen of the empire since the original movies
I can see Wrecker banging his head being an on running gag throughout series & noticed he kindly makes omega her own room & how does she repay him?, by stealing his cuddly toy.. not cool omega, the darkside i sense in thee..
It's Grogu eggs and cookies all over again 🤣
"Just because you are a bad guy doesn't mean that you are a _bad_ guy... but it does mean you're dead."
Anyone got a light cuz things are getting a little dark!
LMAO UR FUNNY
CW: first major dark moment is Anakin murdering the Mandalorian trying to kill Satine. Rebels: Grand inquisitor beheads Lothal imperial soldiers at the behest of Tarkin. At this point it just seems on brand for Dave
Sorry, no light here since Omega fed the last flashlight to the Ordo Moon Dragon xd
Today I was so early the episode didn't have a name on Disney+
Small detail in this episode, Tarkin is now a Grand Moff compared to last episode where he had an Admiral rank, guess he's moving up in the Empire now
Cool to see the how the empire is changing its military. Great video and review
Loooved your review! And I am amazed by how well balanced the story lines were. Both considering what polar opposites they were in mood and pacing, but with a fair bit happened with Crosshair's portion yet none of it felt rushed. And you mentioned all the ways the title worked, I do also like how it works for Crosshair too. Getting a new group to be a part of. Especially with them returning to the room he and his brothers used to share.
I honestly hope Bad Batch introduces us to vaders fist 501st legion
They would go by Vader's Fist at this point, or probably in a near future
We might see them. The kaminoans seem to be planning a clone army of their own, so the empire may send in the 501st Legion to stop the uprising similar to Star Wars Battlefront 2 2005.
When Tarkin & Rampart are discussing operation 'war mantle' it hit me in Rogue One Jyn also mentioned 'mark omega' seems to me to be to much of a coincidence to 'Not' be about omega.. could this be Filoni verse at work? We've had 'darksaber' (TCW S7), 'war mantle' & maybe 'mark omega' (bad batch)..
I think its really important to have the unique models whenever possible because it allows stories to be written that connect back to those background characters. For example in the death of Pre Vizsla scene there are multiple reused face models. But we later know that Gar Saxon, Ursa Wren, and Rook Kast were all in the room. If you use unique models then you setup the possibility for really cool connections, movies don't have to worry about this because every actor is unique.
They're definitely the first Death Troopers
I'm still not convinced she's supposed to be some sort of "Force Sensitive," Clone variant. It makes much more sense that she's another Clone with particular enhanced abilities, like the rest of them, or a combination of them all.
Either way, it was another great episode, and the worst part of finally reaching Friday so I can watch the new episodes is; Once I'm done it's a whole other week to wait all over again! ✌
Interesting how Crosshair's mission kind of undermines Tarkin's argument against the clones. Without a clone enforcing the mission parameters, the recruits wouldn't have executed the civvies. Kind of reveals that Credit is King and Tarkin is really more worried about the money than the efficiency of the troops. "Cost prohibitive" as he says. I suppose the Empire will use programmed clones to train recruits into utter obedience or be shot, as demonstrated with Crosshair's summary execution of the soldier.
The descent of their ship this episode made me realize it looks JUST like a Kaminoan Sabre Dart!!!!
Geode+ Gonky + Babu frick+ frog lady = best team
you forgot dr mandibles
I’m waiting for them to name the GÖNK
His name is gonky ( officiel name )
@@Luna-dh6yt
WHAT
HES BEAUTIFUL
No his name is Gonkers
@@StuartLugsden its officiel in SW website they said the name of this droid gonk is Gonky
@@Luna-dh6yt Oh sorry I didn't see "(official name)" my bad.
I think she might be like taskmaster from the MCU with photographic memory and able to pick up on their skills quickly
But then how does she pick up on Wrecker’s super strength? 🤔
Great review. Thanks for making it.
There was a very beautiful scene at the end where Wrecker gives Omega her own room.
It's interesting, we get some serious contrast in this episode between the two main plots.
One of the most horrifying and brutal scenes of Crosshair ordering the execution of innocent civilians, and one of the most beautiful and wholesome scenes, where Omega gets her room and the Batch admire her and the moment.
Very grateful to have this episode.
Cheers and peace everyone ☮️♎️✌️.
I think, instead of replacing the Clones because of 'Money' it would be better(for Tarkin) to explain something like "The Clones come only from one source making Kamino a valueable target and/or it is easy to sabotage the Clones production by an Inside job" I would like this over the "Money" thing.
The actor (Noshi Dalal) who plays Vice Admiral Rampart is the same one that plays Varko Grey of SW: Squadrons and Charles Smith of RDR2.
Ooooohhh... What if Omega was raised to replace Crosshair, as he is the only one with the chip still working. The Kaminoans probably wanted to make it a full chip free squad. And that could also explain why it seemed he didn't like Omega, because he somehow knew she reminded him of someone and why she shot so easily in the first episode. It wasn't force sensitiveness but just... good aim
Oh, let's replace the most lethal guy in the team with a child, and when that child grows up to a soldier herself, the rest will be the dad batch with back problems, seems like a good idea
Crosshair met omega when his chip is already activated, there's no proof that he hates her
@@xuanvutran3114 Uh... remember clones age fast ? Also, they didn't expect the war to end that soon.
And Rex is still kicking 20 years later
I'm still not loving Omega, but I have to keep reminding myself that it took me a while before I started warming up to Ezra. I'll say, though, that I too am liking how well the rest of 99 have accepted/welcomed her into their group. I agree it was great that Hunter took her along on the search instead of just leaving her behind.
I am so glad I wasn't the only one who had the Wrecker/chip activation thought. There being such a focus on his headaches and Tech working on his scanner _has_ to mean we're going down the path of an "activated" Wrecker at some point.
Crosshair my new fav
Good dark Ep. Animation of flames from flame thrower looked off the charts!., Loved how Crosshair straight up kills member of saws squad for not answering his question, then member of his own for refusing his order..
Thought we got few hints to his possible redemption when Omega pulled out his weapon kit.TECH- it's worth noting the possibility that Crosshair actions were influenced by his inhibitor chip. ECHO- it can do that?. OMEGA- that's what it was designed to do. WRECKER- so it wasn't his fault.... (then later) OMEGA- you shouldn't be angry at him (Crosshair) he can't help it. HUNTER- I'm angry at myself, we don't leave our own behind. OMEGA- then we'll find a way to get him back..
Said the same thing, " come on Tech, stop keeping things to yourself!" 😂
I feel Omega's mutation is advanced learning
Or foresight ?
I had the Omega being an amalgamation of the rest of Clone Force 99 idea all along. You're welcome. :-)
I really enjoyed this one. I'm still at a crossroads regarding Crosshair, I can't help but wonder about his behaviour in the premiere, how much of that was the chip and how much of it was HIM? I know that he's now had it cranked up to 11 so he has no choice now but he's kinda shady even without the chip.
Hunter mentions that "they don't leave one of their own behind" something every clone is taught from day 1 but Crosshair shows no such loyalty, even when he was fully in control of himself. He even says in TCW S7 that he'd gladly leave a clone behind without a second thought so right there is the big red flag for me.
Hopefully Wrecker will get sorted soon, I am worried, I won't lie but I'm glad they are addressing their chips and I hope they'll run into Rex soon and he'll be able to help them. I want to see the Batch remove their chips entirely even if it's only a precaution because if one of them gets captured, that won't go well. On a more positive note, it is really good to see them warming to Omega and vice versa, I really loved that aspect of the episode
The Empire really thinks their new soldiers can replace clones. 🤡🤡🤡
This episode felt like it happened really fast
Damn this episode was good. Seeing the very first squad of kind off stormtroopers was awesome and crosshair got dark executing those innocent villagers on onderon and one of his own soilders. Seeing Omega get her own room courtesy of wrecker was so lovely and kind. Can't wait for next week 😀😀😀
For the record, there have been force sensitive clones in the form of X1 and X2 before in the battlefront game for psp and ds
I dont think there’s gonna be a whole clone rebellion against the empire or anything like that, based on the kaminoans intentions they want to stay in business with the empire so i dont think they want to start a war against them
Very true. I do still forsee a Komanoan vs Empire scenario where Tarkin/Palpatine end up realizing that the clones are too much of a threat and decide they need to be eliminated. (Maybe due to the Bad Batch figuring out a way to undo the clones brainwashing?)
So… what if they find a non-invasive - maybe even remote - method of disabling the inhibitor chips? That would also explain why the empire didn’t go back to using clones, even after the majority of stormtroopers were proven to be less than ideal.
On the other hand, say a broadcast were sent out disabling all their chips at once, and the Empire was to respond by eliminating every clone it could find… yikes. That would get dark in a hurry.
I was definitely getting the death trooper vibe in this with Crosshair. They don't have to use the name/title yet but they can certainly imply its early origins.
When I saw Crosshair kill that guy I knew they would ..follow orders, you can imagine all the Clone Troopers that have that same mentality now. Kind of sad but it's the Empire and they still have a purpose for now.
I was on the flip side and thinking the rest of the squad will be in danger of having their chips amplified like Crosshair but it not working on Wrecker since his might now be damaged. He seems to be the most emotional and a not really a thinker so having him be the one left to save the rest of the Batch would be an interesting development if that's the route they take it.
Up until you mentioned Wrecker possibly succumbing to the chip, I didn't want to believe that Omega could possibly be force sensitive. I don't like the idea that the Kaminoans figured out how to make a healthy force sensitive clone without suing a force sensitive genetic template. Hell, I don't like the idea that any clone could be force sensitive without major issues like psychosis or deformity. The only thing that's making me okay with this is the concept that Wrecker, being the one who treats her best, the one with the best heart-touching scenes with Omega, will ultimately realize she's force sensitive and the chip will take over his mind. I think that will be a VERY tough scene to watch, especially seeing how they're developing their bond, and ultimately I think Wrecker is going to die because they can't take him down to disable the chip. I don't think Omega is going to die, but I can't see how she'd be excused from any mention anywhere outside of this show. We already don't know what happens to Grogu, and he's never mentioned outside of Mandalorian. I don't want Omega to be ANOTHER Force sensitive surviving the Jedi purge. We were always supposed to believe that the Empire wiped out all but a small number of Jedi, and now we have Ezra, Omega, Grogu, Ahsoka, and possibly others existing out there in the galaxy.
I truly feel like it's gonna come down to crosshair resisting his inhibitor chip and that he's going to end up defying the empire, forcing the kamino rebellion which breaks the camels back in order for tarkin to move over to a fully conscripted army and redirect elite troopers to the dark trooper projects that end up into what we see in the mandalorian season 2 finale.
Once the refugees revealed that Saw Gurerra had already left, I said, "Oh no, they're toast!" I knew that Saw's plot armor as a foregone survivor up until "Rogue One" was the only way any of the others would manage to survive.
There is more evidence she could be force sensitive when she find the capacitor and when she does she talks about how she must just be lucky. She may of been drawn to it by the force. But also when she calmed the beast down she could of used the same power that Ezra was taught by Kanan in rebels.
The whole execution of the civilians scene reminded me what they can do with a TV-PG rating as opposed to Rebels' TV-Y7. Even then, I wonder if Cartoon Network would have allowed a scene like that.
Am I the only One who noticed that there is no Narrator at the Beginning of the new Bad Batch episodes? But in Aftermath we had an intro?
The intro guy damaged his voice
I think it was intended as a transition from The Clone Wars to this series, start like a TCW episode and shift into The Bad Batch by the end.
Sadly, Tom Kane (the voice actor for the Narrator, Yoda, Yularin, etc.) had a stroke last year. I hope he recovers and can return to acting, but him not appearing in other BB episodes means the show won't be affected that way (his health is the priority, of course! We're all rooting for you, Tom!). The actors recorded all this dialogue years ago, given how far ahead Lucasfilm Animation works, so the lack of narration from episode 2 onward would have nothing to do with the stroke.
@@MadTheDJ youre probably right. I have already made a video about that
Great episode. Don't have a favourite; I just love how they are so different but stay within the same story line without repetition (so far)
Ah, war crimes how i've missed you!
Ok so rampart is pretty important and project war Mantel but it seems the original intentions weren’t full on recruits but a mix recruits and clones and more as special forces rather then the average solider the fact they in proto death trooper armour is also interesting and we might follow one human member of this squad until they end up becoming the first proper death troopers who probably have inhibter chips to make them loyal which would be super dark just imagine a regular solider getting a chip implant into them and the other death trooper modifications
I have to be honest I can't be the only one who thinks Tarkin's vision for not using clones is really really nonsensical when it comes to how they follow orders and show allegiance. He said right after the troopers came back from killing Saw's people that this is why clones are not affective...
Well newsflash man you didn't even bother trying to use the clones that "would" follow your orders. Who's to say that those chips in the regular clones would render them from killing civilians? Idk I feel there are some plot holes there and a lot of conveyances for the plot to move forward. It just doesn't make sense to me their thought process of grading the clones and their loyalty based on the 4 clones who's chips didn't work...
Idk just a thought anyone else agree?
cloens will continue to be used is jsut that new ones wont be made bc they are to expensive to make
@@ddpzzp553 New ones what new ones? Do mean ones that don't have a chip now that the jedi are dead?
Conscription doesn't mean joining out of loyalty, it's mandatory service. The episode seems to confused conscripted troops with voluntary troops.
Her resemblance to Wrecker is the child like soul they share.
I'm hoping they tie Crosshair's squad into the eventual formation of SCAR Squadron (ie Task Force 99). Their armor does suggest Death Troopers though.
I feel like Omega is replacing all of Bad Batch. If they just had Tech and Omega they could basically do anything
I’m predicting that the Bad Batch will try to find Rex in order to learn more about the Inhibitor Chips.
When she lifts up crosshair's old box and they all look at her I thought they were going to say "how can you lift that so easily? it's really heavy" or something lmao
Crosshair: Strike First ... Strike Hard ... NO MERCY
The origin of the Deathtroopers! Golden!
I think maybe the way crosshair handled could have been cause his chip was turned to 11.
That without it he wouldn't have shot the prisoners and would've seen reason.
However his chip is now forcing him to precisely obey the order. "take them out" not "bring them in" or something like that.
The funny thing is that this new squad had mutiny problems almost immediately which is funny as tarkin and rampart just think one of were killed by the enemy
Does “Ordo Moon Dragon” imply that the moon or the planet is Ordo?
Probably the moon cuz we see the TBB crashing on the planet's moon.
She kinda lifted crosshairs gear this episode
I like the idea that the Force is mystical and can't really be fully controlled by people. I think that they have been hinting all a long that Omega, is very attuned to other beings and can mimic their abilities. I hope this is an enhancement and not the force.
I'm loving this series.
I did like that Crosshair's squad are wearing what is literally just recolored Phase II clone armor. It makes sense that new armor types haven't been created yet, and there's no reason for average-sized humans to not be able to wear it.
Imagine they pull a cindel with crosshair they get his chip out but he actually stands by what he did and stays with the empire.
