For translators: The Battle of Geonosis, later referred to as the first battle of geonosis, was the first confrontation between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. We mainly saw this battle from the perspective of the main characters, but what was the battle like for the average clone troopers?
First off, this battle was an absolute chaotic mess that unnecessarily caused a tremendous amount of deaths of both Jedi and clones that could have been avoided had the confrontation been better prepared. At the battle’s climax, both sides were pretty much just throwing everything that had at each other without any real proper strategy until near the end.
A 501st clone who survived the battle recollected his thoughts to a journal, stating how all the training and simulations on Kamino hadn’t prepared any of them for the horrors and chaos that was the battle of Geonosis. The screaming of dying soldiers and the blood that spilled from them wasn’t anything like what they clones had trained for.
The same 501st clone was later amazed on how they survived the first hour of the battle, let alone the first day. However after they won, he and his brothers emerged battle hardened and ready for whatever fight the rest of the war had in store for them.
Probably the unluckiest clone to participate in the battle was CT 12 26. He and his regiment were deployed to the front lines, where they were followed by heavy republic walkers. During his deployment the comlink in his helmet had a glitch which made it impossible for him to communicate with his team. Despite this setback he still pushed on.
Once they confronted a large force of droids, CT 12 26 was almost killed by friendly fire when an AT TE walker malfunctioned and shot at his direction. The blast knocked him into a crater which resulted in his helmet cracking and losing its HUD systems.
When he came to he tried to climb out of the crater but quickly fell back in when he was almost crushed by a Hailfire droid which rolled over him. When he looked up through his broken helmet he noticed a few droids had discovered his presence.
As the B2 Battle droid with the rocket launcher on its wrist was about to fire, the clone quickly shot it down which resulted in the rocket to change course and hit the Hailfire droid that passed over him earlier.
The destruction of the Hailfire droid gave a path for the other clones and republic walkers to punch through the droid’s fortified line. As they marched through, CT 12 26 got to safely and into a walker. He later received a commendation for his actions on the battlefield.
One of the more dangerous jobs during the battle were tasked to the reconnaissance troopers, who collected information on enemy activity on their speeder bikes. Due to being separated from the main Republic forces, these scouts were very vulnerable to enemy ambushes, with some super unfortunate scouts being literally... - Розваги

Still not as bad as Berkeley.
That was pretty good. You earned the pin.
"...as it came to be known as the first battle of Berkeley..."
The first battle of the Great Meme War.
Karl Hiramanek it wasn't the first, everyone forgets about the Forgotten Meme War Of 08-15. There were few battles because everyone was scared and disunited
"As the B2 battle droid with the rocket launcher on it's wrist was about to fire...the clone shouted 'watch those wrist Rockets'"
This is perfect
Casey Craven this is so weird I was reading comments as the video was playing, right when I started to read this he actually said his part😂
Thought they'd shout "They've sent in the supers!"
I thought it would've been "I'm on 'em!"
All you Battlefront 2 fans made my day
'It was hot, sandy, chaotic. Nothing like the simulations on Kamino.' #SaveTheCloneWars
Do you dislike sand?
Republic Holdout I don't know how we survived the first hour, can't imagine all the day...
Hail the confederacy!
WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS!
Take out that Super!
WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS
W00KIE JUST LIKE THE SIMULATIONS

FOR THE CHANCELLOR!

"My first day as a member of the 501st; It was hot... it was sandy, and chaotic. Nothing at all like the simulations on Kamino. Of course, that's pretty much the way it was for all of us, wasn't it? All that breeding, all those years of training... It doesn't really prepare you for all the screaming or the blood, does it? Frankly, I'm amazed we even made it through the first hour, nevermind the first day..." -Unnamed Clone Trooper, First Battle of Geonosis, 22 BBY

I swear that game is probably among the greatest video games ever made, let alone star wars. So many memories :D
Best Star Wars game ever

BF2? I mean the real Battlefront 2😂
How did anakin cope with all the sand
Samuel Sepulveda lol, sand is the leading cause in tusken raider deaths, did you know that?
He was flying above it in a gunship, remember?
Remember when he was tied to a pole with 3 deadly creatures trying to kill him? Me neither.
Samuel Sepulveda but he hates sand. in rogue one i'm pretty sure he wouldn't go on the sand on Scarif
Same way he did on Tatooine, he cut down who were his enemies. Just like he cut down the Sand People.
A clone movie is totally necessary, maybe about Delta Squad, from their time on Geonosis to their transition to the Empire.
I would be fine with literally any of that, I'm game, I'm a huge Clone Wars fan, but why not use an already existing batch of known clones that hasn't been since in a while? Delta Squad hasn't been seen since their first appearance on the Clone Wars TV series, so imagine how fans would react to a transition film from the Clone Wars to the OT with such badass characters.
and then get really fucking sad for Sev's death
I love Sev, but I must say I'm a big Scorch fan.
Nice. But I'm a Boss fan
Putting our favorites aside, I think our fellow Star Wars fans would indeed love to see a film that properly bridges Episodes 3 and 4. With the Delta Squad, we can see a proper change from the Republic, to the Galactic Empire, and see the evolution of these soldiers and potentially Darth Vader.

0:58 The good ol' days of Battlefront 2
Hope the new one is better.
Nick D The old Battlefronts were inspired by a mod for Battlefield. EA's reboot is nothing like Battlefield. I don't see your logic mate.
Nick D no classes, heroes, jet packs, pick up tokens, star cards. No conquest or Rush.... yeah totally sounds like battlefield.
Skoombit the new one was good but people were just upset it didn't have conquest
Riley Weitz I still have it on ps2
My first day as a member of the 501st....
BrickPicture Productions I remember it was very quiet... we knew what we were about to do.
BrickPicture Productions
Was hot, sandy, chaotic. Nothing like the simulations on Kamino.
BrickPicture Productions ok then
Of course, that's pretty much the way it was for all of us, wasn't it?
Reactiveisland5 all that breeding all those years of training it doesn't really prepare you for all the screaming all the blood does it

"Glad we weren't positioned on the first Death Star amiright Tal?"
"Ha ya. Why would they even think about building another one? Ohh, wait its because it's bigger. Geez Hen, I wonder about our superiors sometimes."

So basically getting mauled by adorable teddy bear things who are so short you can barely see them, and wearing FUCKING WHITE in a massive forest. 10/10, would regret wardrobe choices again.

So, basically the Star Wars version of Vietnam.
More like WW1, Umbara is more like Vietnam.
Nah man, fellucia is like Vietnam.
Masamoto6 Felucia is more like a trip to Australia
Eggs n' Toast and Scariff is like Iwo Jima.
Felucia was like a walk to the store in Australia*
That would be cool if we could play at the battle of Geonosis as a clone trooper in Battlefront 2 (2017).
WOLF AND WOLFLYN Well the trailer said all eras of the star wars saga. So i assume it will start from the very beging with the clone wars.
Geo Xev This is your boy cowbellyspam boy, sub to me and you get, well. Gud feelings.
Geo Xev yea,
You can play the battlefront 2005...
We just got news bud, it’s gonna be in battlefront 2 very soon
oh that soldier almost died I mean like that's really impressive
Captain rex This is your boy cowbellyspam boy, sub to me and you get, well. Gud feelings.
Captain rex at least he was in shape
Your lucky your battalion even made it out
Most of my troopers died.
It's good to know that despite how many clones there were, they still received individual recognition in the form of commendations and medals

So, the battle of Geonosis was the Star Wars version of Vietnam?
It was more like WW1
Umbara was more like space Vietnam.
....maybe...
More like World War 2 in the Eastern Front. Both sides took heavy casualties.
Well actually Gareth Edwards (i think that was his name ) who directed Rouge one said the battle of scariff was meant to be like the battle for Vietnam.
For the chancellor!
FOR THE REPUBLIC!

We definitely need more full scale battles like Geonosis in the upcoming Star Wars movies, instead of focus on single characters!
Yes! We do!!!! I want to have a battle on Dagobah so that I can blast "It Ain't Me" at the movie theatre. But seeing another large battle on or off a planet, with actual military tactics maybe? Hire an advisor if you need to.
Heck yeah, with real military tactics and lots of bloodshed!
Yea they could do a movie on that and I would definitely go see it.
The Geonosis update for Battlefront 2 (2017) I think really captures the chaos of that battle. There are so many choke points and open field areas where it’s near impossible to cross without getting shot down. It really does feel like there’s a lack of strategy and that commands are being made on the spot.
We marched in silence... we know what were were about to do but none of us said a word....

You should do a video of top ten most unfortunate clones
Get fact free to see this guys!

Number Ten:
Ponds
No? Not funny? Mk what about the clone in my squad who was mauled to death by a monster? Still not funny? The clone who's neck was snapped due to grevious? NO FUNNY?! WELL THEN WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU FIND FUNNY?!?!?!
1226 doesn't seem UNLUCKY he might just be the luckiest Clone out there, escaping near death and in the end benefiting the battle, then getting a medal for it
Sev always kept his count very precise on how much geonosians he wanted killed 4,982 was the number of clone commandos lost on geonosis (I believe was the number but in the novel it stated how he always kept the exact number no more no less)
+Fact Free I remember when I asked you what was the worst battle of the clone wars and you said The Battle of Courasant so can you can you do a video about it from a clone's perspective because you got me interested when you said millions of droids were fallen on the streets of Courasant.
Ah I remember going through the canyons on Geonosis while playing Republic Commando back in the day. The poor troopers and gunships I saw littered around the canyon.
Also, I guess the force didn't teach the jedi how to deploy commandos correctly :(
The good ole days of Battlefront 2, when the 501st Veteran narrated the entire Clone Wars to Battle of Hoth. Man i miss that. Love videos of Clone perspectives, i would love to see the Battle of Coruscant form a Clone's Perspective, maybe the same Clone Trooper? Or just how they coped with the Seperatists invading their capital planet.
I like the more gritty realistic side of star wars that isn't all about main characters
Do the battle of scarif from a soldier's perspective if you can
Don't we saw it in the movie?
Damn. All I saw in the movie was a few clones shot. 2 at te's blown up. And a few gunships destroyed
The force is strong with this channel.
For when no one has time to read comics but loves the lore of the franchise. This is a great channel that gives exposure the eu desperately needs
He got a medal for watching the wrist rockets
Is the memorial still there? Like, is it there by the time of Force Awakens or maybe the Original trilogy?
PotatoKawaii Gamer It probably still is there because the reason Jedi are killed cuz they "betrayed" the clones who protected the Republic from Seperatists. In order to ensure the Republic is safe and clones are supported Palpatine created the Empire
It's Legends, so most it most likely doesn't exist anymore.
Its still there. Since Clone Wars is still canon.
I don't think it was destroyed or taken away it was most likely burried and forgotten as time passed.

God I love star wars lore videos, keep them coming man!
Awesome. We need a game from a clone's perspective with this battle and this level of chaos described in the video
what do i get if i leave a like
My thanks ;)
Not a swift kick in the ass, and sand rubbed in your wounds.

R.i.p. to all those clones who died on geonosis.
Thank you for sticking with the expanded universe.
Thanks fact free iv been waiting for this for a long time...Next the battle of Endor from a rebel soldier perspective.
When he literally just quoted the original battlefront 2 in the beginning.

Brilliant, just brilliant. One of my favorite battles
I love your content fact free

CT-1226: GLITCH
That's his name and you can't tell me otherwise
İt will be my perspective once battlefront 2 dlc published
I love it when fact free talks about battlefront ii
Unluckiest?
CT-1226
Seemed quite lucky.
I still like the Whole Situation of the clone wars described in the Republic Commando Books way more than the Canon Version because it was much more realistic (nobody cares about dead or badly hurt Clones and there is definitly no Wall that shows the -not existent- names of Clones that died)
Yes
I could watch this all day
and this is why i sucbscribed to fact free GREAT VID!
CC-1226 finally canon in bad batch let’s go
We don’t know 100% but hopefully Edit: and so is dirge I think I’m spelling that correctly
Like the d-day of Star Wars
Oh thank goodness for more information on the battle of geonois. I thought it was going to be another quote video from the 501st
Well done, another great video ^_^

I love all your video's fact free hope you get more subscirberes
I got hyped when you said a clone put his thoughts in a journal because it's literally the 2005 battlefront 2 campaign.
"My first day as a member of the 501st... it was hot, sandy, chaotic and nothing at all like the simulations on Kamino. Of course that's pretty much the way it was for all of us, wasn't it? All that breeding, all those years of training... it doesn't really prepare you for all the screaming or the blood, does it?

*Watch those wrist rockets*
clones wars stuff is awesome fact free! :-)
That ship coming outta hyper space and crashing into another made me laugh a bit. I kinda wanna watch the old Star Wars cartoon. And that beginning bit with what you said. It kinda reminds me of the clone trooper that spoke during the cutcenes in Star War Battlefront II.
CT-1226 definitely watched those wrist rockets
AYY! I caught the Battlefront 2 reference! Now I feel special.
Brings back a long of old memories of playing the original battlefront games.
"Just like the simulation." I remember this phrase so much. Also the "aaarggghh!"
I always wondered who that clone trooper was at 1:13 thanks for telling us Fact Free :)
More soldiers perspectives please, very interesting and cool.
I like how grievous' story is all over the place, here he was already a cyborg but at other points he's not until mid way through the war
gotta love the republic commando game
2:10 watch those wrist rockets.
Omg I loved this video
Man, when im adult i should show my kids this channel.
Love how he uses the battlefront 2 campaign journals!
I love all of the battlefront 1 and 2 clone references lol
Cool videos thank you for explaining what really happen did you hear about the last Jedi trailer 👍
I always felt bad for the clones. These guys are all legitimate brothers, and they saw each other die. Those that survived the Battle and the war that lived to see the rise of the Empire saw themselves slowly but surely phased out and die from accelerated aging. I find it sad.
When you mentioned Delta Squad
