@@EeniThesian66 lmafo, the Empire is a authoritarian dictatorship that is literally aesthetically based off of Nazi Germany.

I'm an Aftermath apologist. The writing style was awkward, sure, but the material was fantastic. I heard that some of it was taken from Lucas' notes he left the storygroup writers. The "feel" of the story was absolutely Star Wars.
This speaks to me in waves of power i can't even begin to describe. The Dark Deeds soundtrack I honestly thought it played in the audible version of the Aftermath book when i listened to it for a second time.
The last clone trooper loyal to the republic sits on his knees, arms draped at his feet blood dripping from his mouth, awaiting execution they troopers ask him his last words as that speech plays on the loud speaker, the lone clone trooper struggles to his feet, and as if he was in no pain at all stands at attention, and salutes while looking toward the sun. " LONG... LIVE... THE REPUBLIC. and as the speech reaches its climax, the firing squad fires killing him instantly. The last of the Republic, the last man standing, gone in the blink of an eye.

OFF THE TRACK I’ve wanted a tv series that focuses on the events of the Aftermath novels and the power struggle between Mas Amedda, Rae Sloane, and Gallius Rax.
Loyal soldiers of the Galactic Empire, madness is at our door. Ruffians and barbarians of the Rebel Alliance have claimed for themselves a government of no legitimacy, a government given over to corrosion, chaos, and the corruption born of alien minds and radical terroristic teachings. It was our own Emperor Palpatine who showed us the weakness that presents itself when a Republic becomes sick with the disease of craven politics and the illness of elite oligarchs who force their agendas upon us. With the death of our beloved Emperor, our own Empire was cast into disorder. It gave strength to the illegitimate, and emboldened them with a fraudulent claim of bringing peace and justice to the galaxy-and yet, for so long, who have been the champions of peace? The only war visited upon the galaxy has been the one brought by the criminal Rebel Alliance. Scattered and lost, we could have perished. After attacking Chandrila and injuring the fraudulent politicians who seek to steal the sanctity of our galaxy, I brought us here to Jakku, unifying our people and our powers in this faraway world-a hard world that has tested our mettle and forged us and sharpened us into a stronger blade. A blade with which we will slit the throats of the traitors that crawl on their bellies toward our door. Soon they come! Soon they try to finish what they started. They want to end the Empire. They want to set up as a tumor on a healthy body, leeching the blood while growing fatter like a parasite. They deny our legitimacy. They lie about the stability and sanity we created for the galaxy. For those are their truest weapons: deception and delusion. We must not give in. We must not believe that they are right. We must see them as they are: Brutes and barbarians! They are subhuman. They are alien to us in the truest sense of the word and are deserving of no mercy from us. This is our zero hour, and I call you now to do your duty by the light of the glorious Galactic Empire. The battle to come is not a fight for Jakku or even a fight for the Empire. It is a fight for all the galaxy. If we fail here, we fail everywhere. We fail our loved ones. We fail our children. We fail all who crave constancy and light in these dark times. We pursue no other aim than freedom from oppression, liberty from lies, emancipation from depravity. Today is the day we fight back and reclaim our galaxy. Today is the day the New Republic dies at the Empire's hand. Today we take our future! The battle is upon us. Go! Go and drag them down to the ground and break their necks with your boots! Take their heads! End their tyranny!
It's good so far. A flashback at the beginning would've been confusing to the audience and people who didn't read Aftermath. Plus one scene would not have changed people's opinions of a film or films, in my opinion. Would've been cool, but it's ultimately pointless.
Where is this from?! And also I want to hear the Rebellions version. The speech Admiral Akhbar or someone in the recellion gave before the fleet jumped to Jakku. That would make one sick ass Star Wars film. Wouldn't it? Star Wars Jakku a star wars story. Lol
@@johnnygyro2295 it still could happen. I mean we all know how the battle turns out, but we could still get a specific part of the story. Maybe that ridge battlefront 2 kept mentioning or the space battle to get to the planet, maybe all of the above! It’s all about creativity and connecting the dots as to not contradict previous lore and happenings and then boom.
Jeffrey Aguilar probably could’ve, it mainly failed because he was intentionally destroying all the remaining ships and men leading up to this battle. By the time of this fight he killed off many key figures intentionally and morale was low, but even without the lost resources they could’ve still won if he wanted to but he did everything in his power to make them fail.

Say what you want about the Disney canon but Rax is a damn good orator. He makes me wanna FIGHT for the Empire.
This is just oozing with charisma and passion. Gallius Rax is what Armitage Hux isn't: A charismatic and powerful leader.
Rax was actually a mentor to Hux
@@emperorholocron8278 well he obviously failed or Hux just sucks.
So he had the same problem as Augustus? Failure is mentoring a worth heir.
the empire might be the bad guy's in star wars. but you have to admit when they give a speach it is charismatic and epic
The empire did nothing wrong
How do you view Terrorism as Good guys?

You're basically saying that the guys fighting against essentially space nazis are the bad guys, so....
This take you into the mind of a soldier, exhausted maybe even wounded. Listening when all hope is lost beleiveing in the empire.
@@stargatecommand714 genocide only applies to humans.
Say what you want about Aftermath...this speech gave me chills.
I agree. I think Rax is an awesome Imperial...

@@AF-tv6uf Don't sell yourself short. You're not an "apologist," you're a fan. Like what you like and take crap from no one.
Imagine hearing this during the games in a mission in star wars while u fight for the empire on jakku
He's a good villian. I love his voice!
He’s an amazing villan
Villan?
Perfect absolutely perfect
You made your channel him because of this, didn't you? If so, I don't blame you. This is so motivating.😂😂😂
I can just imagine a normal stormtrooper suiting up while this overplays.
FOR THE EMPIRE !!! FOR THE EMPEROR !!!

This is on a whole new level of epicness
Brilliant voice acting. Long live the Empire.
forever and all time
I want a movie on the battle of jakku
Fuck yeaah
That would be cool
We have seen it so many times and from so many perspectives already, so I for one wouldn't like a movie about it.
OFF THE TRACK I’ve wanted a tv series that focuses on the events of the Aftermath novels and the power struggle between Mas Amedda, Rae Sloane, and Gallius Rax.
didnt we all want empires end trilogy instead of the sequels.
I don't hold a high opinion for Rax but this speech. It gives me hope for the Imperial Future.
it takes you into the mind of a soldier listening when all hope is lost.
Never fret, we will never stop fighting
That’s one hell of a speech from someone who is going to destroy the empire.
Rax: *finishes his speech* Alright now where's the "blow up the empire" button
@@AbsolXGuardian lol
Well he plans to recreate and refine it
@@mutjed And create the First Order.
@@kyloren114 that’s exactly what I said
Reading the last aftermath book and listening to this while reading the part he gives the speech felt like a star wars movie
I’m not much of a fan of Wendig but even I can admit he absolutely nailed it here
Long live the empire!
For the empire!
long live the Empire
this is so amazing
Gallius rax wasn’t a bad leader, he tired to save the empire
No he didn't lmfao he actively killed it on purpose

Why wasn't the last two sentences in the video :(
Thesian Gaming I think that was said later on, not in the speech
@@kevinyeh8891 Still it sounds like it's good for the speech.
HWHERE DID YOU FIND THAT
@@EeniThesian66 Likely because today we take our future just leaves it on a really good climax
For the EMPIRE
What if episode 7 started with this, flashbacks to episode 6 and an imperial fleet massing above jakku
Wouldve made for a better movie trilogy im sure
Effing glorious, that's what it would have been.
It's good so far. A flashback at the beginning would've been confusing to the audience and people who didn't read Aftermath. Plus one scene would not have changed people's opinions of a film or films, in my opinion. Would've been cool, but it's ultimately pointless.
Maybe with POV of both empire and rebel soldiers.
FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE
Hall Hail the Empire. Great speech
This makes Huxs speech sound like a whining baby
He is, both Kylo and Hux are just babies trying to grab power, they can’t compare to Imperial might from both canon and legends
Yeah
@Michael Belmontez Jr Not really. Brendol was in charge of FO forces but Hux and Phasma planned to kill him.
Crush the scum underneath thy boots.
This speech made my hair on my arms stand up its a true speech before battle in star wars 💪🏻😎😎😎Go Empire and my The Dark Side be with us all!!!!!
I listen to this speech every morning when I put on my uniform and boots
More of this....
Impressive...who does his voice...?
Marc Thompson I believe
Gallius rax is attractive
Lmao
*"AND THUS THE FIRST ORDER WAS BORN!"*
Until they ended up falling apart and left in ruins like the Galactic Empire.
Post more please
Gallius Rax should have been Supreme Leader Snoke.
Holy shit that was awesome..!
Holy Mackerel

Jakku: A Star Wars Story would've been cool.

I felt that
May the forth be with you
Awesone
:') for the empire
And this speech was just him playing all those who weren’t in on the plan
Idk what's better. The writing, or the voice acting 🤔
Both are incredible
He reminds me of Scolar Visari from the Killzone series
please comment thanks
Take notes hux
2:46 - 3:13 is the best part
Is this speech from the audio book?
Pretty sure
Which book?
Is that Marc Thompson or someone else?
I'm not sure to be honest. It doesn't really sound like Marc Thompson, but I also wouldn't be surprised.
It is. He voiced/narrated all three audiobooks.
Where did u get this speech
The book aftermath empire end.
i heard it came from aftermath star wars
In Italiano???
Non esiste amico mio
Where is this from?
Star wars aftermath empire end
a book
Which book?
The Empire is gone... THE FIRST ORDER WILL RULE THE GALAXY ONCE AND FOR ALL !!!!!!!!!!
For the First Order!
(1:18)
this fanmade or from an audio book?
Star wars empire end
A book
And yet they still failed
Michael Belmontez Jr could they have won though had Palpatine not want Rax to let the Empire die?

stronger blade. A blade with which we will slit the throats of the traitors that crawl on their bellies toward our door. Soon they come! Soon they try to finish what they started. They want to end the Empire. They want to set up as a tumor on a healthy body, leeching the blood while growing fatter like a parasite.
They deny our legitimacy. They lie about the stability and sanity we created for the galaxy. For those are their truest weapons: deception and delusion. We must not give in. We must not believe that they are right. We must see them as they are: Brutes and barbarians! They are subhuman. They are alien to us in the truest sense of the word and are deserving of no mercy from us.
This is our zero hour, and I call you now to do your duty by the light of the glorious Galactic Empire. The battle to come is not a fight for Jakku or even a fight for the Empire. It is a fight for all the galaxy. If we fail here, we fail everywhere. We fail our loved ones. We fail our children. We fail all who crave constancy and light in these dark times.
We pursue no other aim than freedom from oppression, liberty from lies, emancipation from depravity.
Today is the day we fight back and reclaim our galaxy. Today is the day the New Republic dies at the Empire's hand. Today we take our future!
