    A possible scenerio… as Padme fires on Dooku's ship when he's leaving Geonosis (after he "disarmed" Anakin and beat Obi-Wan) she hits something vital.
    Then when Dooku is coming in to dock at the hangar that Palpatine is waiting at the retro's fail to fire, and with no breaking thrusters his ship crashes at speed and _kills them both._
    The narrative would be that Dooku kamikazed Palpatine, and Palpatine would die a martyr… mourned by the Republic, the Jedi, and even by Padme - who would blame herself for not shooting down Dooku when she had the chance and saving the good Senator Palpatine.

      Also, remember this quote from Mace Windu: "If I had struck down Count Dooku on Geonosis when I had the chance -- if I had let Jango Fett slay me as I slew Dooku -- this war might have ended that day."
      If a scenario where Dooku kamikazed into Palps unknowingly and killed them both, then the war would've ended that very month, if not a little later. It took time for the Clone Wars to get into momentum and Dooku's death would mean that the CIS would start to break apart, as it slowly did in ROTS. Without Dooku, the Separatist Council argued among themselves (and Grievous, who is still an unknown player at this moment).
      Palpatine's death could lead to the Jedi investigating the Sith, while the Senate votes in a new leader. Without the Sith, I fully believe that the Republic and CIS would've come to terms in peace by the year's end to avoid any more bloodshed.

  • @cheesyminer
    @cheesyminer 4 года назад +665

    I get the feeling the war would have ended fairly soon. Not because of Separatist overall victory, but because we know that there were peace talks, and it seemed they were serious and could have brought a fairly peaceful resolution. If not for the interference of Dooku/The Sith (sending droids to sabotage Coruscant), the war very well may have been resolved and the Separatists could have gone on their way without further conflict.

Thats one reason why Palpatine staged this conflict in the first place - he wanted the Republic to be militarized in the first place and he knew this would take several years.

    *You missed two more important nerfs* that Siddious did.
    CIS special projects and superdroids, and leaking Intel about some suprise attacks.
    The CIS had some vastly superior Droids to the B1, that never got put into widespread production due to Dooku's control. And the B1 didn't get software upgrades that could have made it smarter.
    In fact Commando Droids were used as a fine tuning method to maintain the stalemate. GAR get too far ahead, increase Commando Droid production, CIS winning, cut it back.
    And then there were the prototypes that kept getting destroyed (along with the faculties and plans) because the Jedi were tipped off about them.
    A couple of them were war winners just by themselves…
    And the second nerf was there were a few times where CIS knockout blows were sabotaged by Siddious, most obviously being attacks on Kamino.
    That would have been it if they had succeeded, and then there was also the attack on the listening outpost on Rishi station, that would have also allowed the CIS to take out Kamino.

    I’m more curious on what would happen after. Would the confederacy completely replace the republic with a more decentralized galaxy, would the core worlds have been subjugated and and seen as play things, would dookus corporatist ideas of incorporating the companies into the CIS government have been better at realing them in instead as opposed to back firing and giving them too much power? Would this create a better uh.. geopolitical stability for the galaxy as a whole? Would grevious allow these tycoons to keep there power now that he controlled most of the military? Would dooku have been a good peacetime leader? Or would the CIS seek a continues trade with the republic now thats its independent, similar to the US with Britain? Would each planet been given more autonomy or would the CIS just take away more rights because of its militarist corporate nature? Would dooku be the one to enforce a more permanent structure? Or was the separatist council just seen as a tool for him to win the war? Would dooku give up his emergency powers after the war? And if so who would become the new Chief of State? Would it be Mina Bonteri or someone more sinister?

      Would this abomination of a state, half ruled by scrupulous, greedy, profit-driven corporate entities, half by psychopathic warlord generals lording over a gigantic military with zero checks on it's power be a decent galactic government? Imagine the worst aspects of the Republic (don't forget that one of the biggest flaws of the Republic was the strong influence of corporate entities on politics), but 10 times as bad. The CIS stood for absolutely nothing beyond "we aren't the Republic", but that didn't actually mean they'd be any better. Without the Republic the CIS would fall apart, the military might seize power, see a civil war, a republican insurgency, who knows what else.

      Palpatine leaking the safe route(s) through the deep core was so that Grievous could employ a *surprise* assault on Coruscant. In this scenario, even if they didn't have any way of getting those routes or a similar "in" in order to catch the Republic off-guard, the CIS would likely have had far more resources to throw at the planet and they would have been more willing to do so without regard to the collateral damage since they wouldn't be compromised by Palpatine's and Dooku's machinations.

    And if some lousy chancellor came back and said “Well then how about that pesky Confederacy? Let’s bring them back into the fold.”, they would have been annihilated by the countless droid armies of the CIS.

  • @krzosu

    Well i think you kinda overstated the odds for confederacy - you said many times - sepies were handicapped by palpatine - but there were also numerous exmaples where paplpatine did exactly the same to republic forces - either by leaking the intel to sepies or by deliberately making bad strategy moves that resulted in failure - or at least severly increasing the chance for failure. Many times he also manipulated the jedi to act foolishly as well or by diverting them from one thing into another. Palpatine also protected many of sepies assets like banking clan or trade federation world/members/ senators despite them having connections to sepies - without that protection - the republic could that much easiert root them out - collapsing many flanks or projects from the sepies outright - by cutting them off from money or other support. I think the longer the war spanned - the more republic chances to win would grow. Sepies in order to win would have early on to use their might to stop republic warmachine from spinning up - because the moment it did so - they would be at disadvantage more and more as the war progressed. If anything the atrocities commited by grievous would cement the support against the cis forces - by proving that they cannot ignore that threat - aka if they are genocidal now - then they wont stop unless WE make them stop by grounding them to dust. Also keep in mind that Palpatine was also killing of many talented people on republic side - and that was smth you kinda neglected to point out too - this would translate into those ppl taking charge of armies as well - in the end it would result as jedi NOT being the minds behind the war - but rather advisors or combatants - but not masterminds since they would be outclassed very quickly by way more competent war/tactically oriented minds as well. And that would stop GAR from making foolish or silly tactical mistakes which were often made by jedi leaders. Palpatine pushed Jedi to be the leaders because he knew they were ill fitted to that task and that would both make them look weak or incompetent in the view of the public and on occasion it would also thin out their numbers in a "natural way". - Without palpatine to keep jedi in the leading role - they would be soon replaced by ppl who actually were good at "war".

    Hey Geetsly, there are two problems within your theories. Grevious was a construction/machination of Plapatine and Dooku as a way to make the entire galaxy tremble in fear to bring them to his side. And Ventress was only brought 'into the fold' because Dooku was looking for new, competing warriors and tech. If you remove all sith machinations and ambitions, you have two leaders/combative threats out of the picture. Ventress was only drawn to Dooku because she felt like she deserved to be sith, not just some dothimir witch or acolyte of one of the witch groups. Also the republic would have put out a proper call for building volunteer army over just relying on local Planetary defense forces and the clones. There was no such call to arms to out in canon. CIS numbers would still have been greater. But running both clone and non clone forces either together or in separate task forces. Manpower is ultimately not an issue for manning ships, fighters and boots on the ground. The fear of the separatist to Republic 'nationalists' would sign up in droves if allowed. Look at any war in reality. If a country is attacked, a large number of people enlist quickly. Think about the numbers of boots you'd get from Coruscant alone.

    I have an odd feeling that even if the CIS was allowed to go their own way (lets assume they are happy with that, and Roger Roger their way back home) and become their own thing(s) - There would have after been oceans of bad blood between the remaining Republic, and the new Confederacy, and likely it would have only been a matter of time until another conflict would have broken out. Especially as those mega-corporation tycoons would have become richer than ever, thus growing their appetite for greed/bravery for such a tactic of securing more wealth, as it worked once already.
    There also probably would have been a lot of smaller border skirmishes going on, as well as a long lasting even stronger culture of "us vs them" fostered for countless generations (especially revenge for General Grievouses little tour of the core during Durge's Lance would have been a big driving point for this), so when the next conflict would have arrived, it would have been even more destructive, as neither side would have been holding back in the slightest.

    Fascinating stuff. It also explains why Palpatine designed a military for the republic that while elite, was still too expensive and small to effectively combat the separatists on all fronts (partly due to it's late formation and slow growth). The clones too were supposed to be good enough to fight the separatists in those circumstances, but keep things desperate enough to keep people scared and ready for the empire, since their real purpose was just to kill the jedi and make way for the stormtrooper corps. Honestly, a CIS using it's full potential could have easily shattered the Republic in a short time, and if they wanted to (which non Smith controlled I doubt they would) probably could have controlled the galaxy more effectively than the Empire even. That wouldn't just be thanks to their droid numbers and functionality being ideal for occupation tactics, but because their fleet composition, tactics, and ground vehicles seemed far better suited to full warfare than the Empire, whose whole military was hamstrung by the shortsighted Tarkin doctrine

    I actually thing the CIS would have been less genocidal in the end. Alot of things were manipulated to happen for Palpatine to justify hyper militarization.

    I've always wanted to see an Alternate Universe where Palp didn't screw over the CIS and let them win the war and then form the Empire by conquering the Republic.

    Let's also not forget that the CIS would also have monetary constraints on how many battle Droids they could have made and not have sith intervention via the banking clan

    It would have been cool to see someone from the CIS putting together all the pieces realizing that they've been manipulated all this time only to be taken out by Palpatines assassins

    Battle droids would have a VERY adwanced targeting Ai that would allow them to kill every foe (exept jedi probably) in one shot (like our Aimbot Ai).
    I also think they would've killed Palpatine and other high comanders (Tarkin, etc.) asap with special Assasin Droids both invisibe (holo- prjections of the back to the front) and soundless (noice cancelling joints).

    Being how MASTERLY A strategist Palps is. An being WAY better then Dooku at it... he'd use ALL OF that to PROBABLY unleash his full might in crushing the CIS. He'd have had all those contacts that played BOTH sides working against the Seps instead exclusively an he'd wanted the Commandos an secret agents doing what they're best at while trying to turn enemies into friends, make new ones, an pressing to get WAY more clone forces.
    An... surgical strikes... that's MORE a Republic Commando Jedi elite fighter thing.. the Confeds we usually saw launching mass attacks. Since they had dozens of regular troops for all they commandos.
