Wizards and Warriors Channel sci-fi animated documentary video series on the Star Wars galaxy lore will continue with the second episode on the Galactic Civil War, as in the aftermath of the battle of Scarif ( • Battle of Scarif - Gal... ) the rebel alliance got its hand on the Death Star plans uncovering its weakness. After of the destruction of Alderaan, Princess Leia Organa assisted by Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and C-3PO brought it to the alliance leadership with Darth Vader, Wilhuff Tarkin and the Death Star in pursuit, which led to the famous battle of Yavin ( • Battle of Yavin - Gala... ). The victory at Yavin allowed the Rebels to find new allies in Mon Calamari and their Mercantile fleet helped them create their fleet. However, the empire was still hunting the Rebels, which led to the battles of Vrogas Vas and Mako-to, where the Empire regained ground ( • Rebels Build a Fleet -... ), forcing the rebels into the Mid Rim Retreat which led to the battle of Hoth in 3 ABY ( • Battle of Hoth - How I... ). In the aftermath of Hoth, the rebels were forced to continue their retreat, but various groups like the 61st Mobile Infantry (Twilight Company) continued fighting the Empire, leading to the strategically important battle of Inyusu Tor on the planet Sullust ( • What Happened between ... ). With these minor victories, the Rebels, who learned that the Emperor is building a new Death Star, had a new opening to attack the Empire, which led to the battle of Endor.

Meh 😑
I want translate the videos of the Channel to spanish
Thanks a bunch for airing this video. It made my day. Please don't let it be too long before you air you next Sci-Fi video. And also seriously consider doing a video series on the Star Trek Universe preferably "The War Against the Dominion" timeline. Now that would be great.
Great video! I look forward to more Star Wars!
@WizardsandWarriors May I see a complete Cannon and Legend Clone Wars timeline, please? Please also include plenty of space battles and more. I want to hear of Ahsoka Tano, too, please. I would appreciate a reply. Also, what is the music used in the conclusion of this video?
The trap and plan was perfect from the start. If Palpatine had just been able to control his obsession with Luke Skywalker for a couple of days and not put himself right in the middle of the trap that he'd set when the trap was perfectly appealing to the rebels without him, it would have been perfect
It all boils down to the fact that the Empire was founded on the power of the Dark Side, thus doomed from the start.
Everything proceeded as the Emperor foresaw. He had seen his death at Vader's hand and knew he would rise again. He even knew that he would die at the hands of Rey in the next trilogy. His plans perfectly played out in such a way that not even his true master, Darth Jar Jar, could have predicted.
It should also be noted that had Admiral Piett being allowed to engage the Rebel armada from the get go then the Imperial Fleet would have made short work of the Alliance's ships and crushed them. Had Palpatine not ordered him to just sit there and in so lose the initiative, this could have turned out to be a decisive victory for the Empire. Goes to show that Palpatine was his own worse enemy.
@@barbiquearea Or maybe you just can't understand the brilliance of his plans. Something.. something.. dark side.
The Endor trap was poorly researched. It failed because Palpatine never considered that the Rebels (and Anakin's children specifically) could bring skilled and warlike stone-age indigenes into their Alliance. That's sloppy prep.
There's no Star Wars battle more memorable than the Battle of Endor. The Imperials had the perfect ambush plan, and it all went awry, which led to the loss of not just Vader and Emperor Palpatine, but many of the Imperial naval leadership which was on the Executor when it crashed.
As Luke said to Palpatine: "Your overconfidence is your weakness"
@@Darkdaej”You’re faith in your friends is yours”
"The emperor's made a critical error, and the time for our attack has come."--Mon Mothma
“It’s a trap!” - Admiral Ackbar, a few hours later
Manny Bothans died to bring us this information. RIP Manny, you brave soldier.
I will have the calamari- Mon Mothma.
Well thank you! I will have the insensitive b*tch, with a side of f*ck you! -Admiral Ackbar.
They needed a second shot that’s one in a million.
Palpatine didn't understand LOVE.
That's why he lost.
When you finish with the original trilogy I would love to see you cover The Clone Wars.
let them take their time. There are plenty of UA-cam videos on the Clone Wars' history.
I completely agree with you on that because I would like to see them do the battle of geonosis and also the stuff that happened before the phantom menace.
@@chasechristophermurraydola9314 I completely agree, especially when the galactic senate wasn't effective at all.
Great video but think you missed out some ships. A Barrack cruiser was there as well, its shown briefly in the film and z-95 head hunter fights was used. A escort ship was also there.
A video on the Clone Wars would be awesome, though thanks to the 2008 show, I think the war has already been covered excellently. Geonosis, Kamino, Anaxes, and Coruscant being some of the most significant battles.
The thought of the 501st legion getting wrekt by teddies bears is absolutely hilarious. 😆
oh how the mighty have fallen
That was the 501st? I thought the ewoks in general were some of the worst characters in general scifi. Their idiotic stick fighting pretty much killed any joy derived from the theater movies. C3PO, that floppy eared dingbat, and hamill portraying a masculine hero role also helped detract as well. Thank God for fan films and channels like this, because in general, the complex storyline is fantastic.
I really wish W&W did more Star Wars content, I absolutely adore this stuff
I wish they did more content of unknown wars
I wish they did events of the clone wars.
@@chasechristophermurraydola9314I wish they did events of the prequels
@@nursestoyland that’s what I am saying.
@@chasechristophermurraydola9314 oh I thought u meant the tv show
One major thing you got wrong for the Battle of Endor was that the Rebel fleet was nearly 3x the size you listed, Ackbar and Mothma threw everything they had at the battle but I must say, wonderful video, can't wait for the Battle of Jakku!!
Don't listen to this channel. It's rebel propaganda I tell you!
Mon Mothma herself didn't join the fleet, jumping to a different location after making a speech.
@@SantomPh I never said she did lol but yes
And frankly, it depends on which source you want to believe; do you go with the "official Disney canon"? Legends/EU? The novelization? The movie? Cuz they each claim significantly different fleet compositions
@@Sephiroth144 ,
Do the movies even claim how big the fleets are? By my count there were over 30 Imperial Star Destroyers present... but I could barely count more than 20 Rebel Ships... and by ships I mean, everything larger than the Falcon...
The Empire should really need to learn to stop putting all their faith on lonely superweapons. It didn't pan out for the Separatists during the Clone Wars, and it really isn't panning out for them.
That would involve better, more complex plots that cannot be handled in a 2 hour film.
I think the dark side has a Freudian obsession with giant balls and symbolic phallic objects... As do di many power trippers
@@rahowherox1177 , I think you're reading too far into it...
I agree, as did many Imperials. Thrawn was very concerned about lack of security during DS1’s construction. Another Grand Admiral (Savit) was equally concerned, realising that the station couldn’t operate indefinitely and that it was inevitable someone would eventually work out how to destroy it.
The empire is a giant bureaucracy where intimation and thinking outside the box is not exactly encouraged or rewarded
When I was in my x wing flying with red squadron I had a solid viewing at the Empires fleet, it was a crazy battle. I made multiple passes on one of the battle cruisers, firing my laser canon like crazy, I could explosions on the ship and adrenaline was really high. My auxiliary computer failed probably from a shrapnel hit, but I was lucky my secondary compute system was fully functional. I did my best to protect the rebel alliance that day, fortunately I lived thru the experience.
I was there too back in the day, were you the pilot who took out that tie interceptor chasing me under the belly of the executor?
After playing Empire at War Mod Thrawn's Revenge I only had the Films as context of Star Wars lore and had no idea after the "Death of Sidious" The Empire didn't collapse fully it fractured. It also made me aware of so much Lore in the universe like Hapes Consortium etc that I had no idea existed.
Gets even more gnarly in the old EU.
Imperial civil wars resulting in fully on Alexandrian successor states that had to be systematically dismantled by the New Republic over a period of ten years.
Contrast that to the Disney universe in which the ENTIRE EMPIRE is gone within ONE friggin year.
there are still people like Moff Gideon around, it's just that Sloane managed to rally everyone to Jakku and then there was the purge at Akiva. There wasn't an Imperial Remnant anymore but there were still pockets of Imp power here and there holding out until the First Order.
@@Schniedragon88 Thrawn's Revenge is based on the EU, FYI
@@SantomPh Don’t forget that Admiral Thrawn is still lurking.
@@Schniedragon88 I'll never understand why Disney did that.
You should absolutely do Legends stories like the Yuuzhan Vong, Dark Empire, the One Sith, or further back like the Infinite Empire, Hutt Empire, or the Old/High Republic era.
Love to see you guys cover the Dominion War from Star Trek, the various wars and battles from Warcraft and starcraft, and of course the wars from the Star Wars expanded universe
I literally just rewatched episode VI yesterday and now this?! Hell yeah!!
The Rebel Fleet charging the Imperial Fleet reminds me of the Battle off of Samar during WW2 (part of the Battle of Leyte Gulf).
Does that make the Falcon, USS Johnston?
@@Fuse1990and the Executor (or the DS2) Yamato?
@@nursestoyland the executor as Yamato makes sense when you consider DS2 could be the Philippines
@@Fuse1990 or Endor itself
Us when he forgot about Captain Rex: *It’s treason, then.*
But this is still a great video!
You dont have the consistency which causes that people totally forget what you presented in the past episode and this is one of your greatest weaknesses in my eyes
Sinjer Rath Villus, was the name of the Imperial Loyalty Officer at the Shield Generator Base during the Battle of Endor. He was the sole survivor after the explosion, although it was never confirmed that he was planning on escaping during the fighting during the ground fight
"Skywalker managed to get off with Vader in time"...
That took an unexpected turn!
Lol
I love this series, it provides extra context to the already well known and loved stories
Hearing the 501st Legion brings back Battlefront 2 campaign memories
I love the narration and animations of these Star Wars videos. Keep them coming, please!
i cant be the only one who would love to see a series on the clone wars
Yeah, we want to see the Clone Wars
This was a great video, thanks guys! Are there any plans to cover other space operas like Star Trek, The Expanse or Mass Effect?
What an amazing series and effort. I really do hope that you continue on and cover the rise of Admiral Thrawn. That would be amazing. But thank you guys nevertheless.
These videos are great, I really love how you go into detail of the battles as we just get to see the heroes perspective and not what was happening in the whole picture, I'll be waiting for the next Star Wars Video !
Your galactic map has several issues with it- but amazing video. The documentary style is 10/10 and very professionally made.
Please cover the Butlerian Jihad
Love all your videos! I know it’s not canon anymore but I’d love a breakdown of the Thrawn Campaign from the legends material.
As always love your Videos
Hope you guys can try doing Warhammer 40k battles
Maybe the fall of cadia
Or starcraft with the zero wars
Umm. all the Mon Calamari MC80 Liberty type Star Cruiser's ship models are upside down
Hopefully this series is going to continue in legends
They have to do a lore doc on the Knights of the Old Republic 1, 2 or Knights of the Fallen Empire someday. Either a rise and fall doc of Revan or any of the sith lords from those games.
It's a shame that we didn't get to see the smaller operations mentioned in this video. It would've been nice to have seen them at least on the smaller screen.
And also Renegade Squadron would be a distraction on Sullest. When the diversion didn’t work Renegade Squadron rushed to the rescue. After the battle Renegade Squadron disbanded themselves. Renegade Squadron is one of several unsung heroes of the Rebellion
Great video, I love the effects this is one of the best Sci Fi battles ever.
I hope you also cover the Clone Wars! :D
What annoys me of star wars is how often someone gets captured and escapes..... repeatedly
16:26 "Sir, we've lost the bridge deflector shields!"
"Intensify the forward batteries, I don't want anything to get through!"
16:31 *"INTENSIFY FORWARD FIREPOWER!"*
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
*"TOO LATE!"* (Executor bridge goes Ka-BOOOOOM!)
Oh Admiral Piett, a true hero to the Empire...
Why are the Liberty´s up side down?
Since the original trilogy is close to finishing, it's make me excited for a clone war series
Chilling recap of this great battle. Thanks!!
Hope you’ll do Star Trek soon. :) Especially the Dominion Wars.
All I can think of now when I hear Ewok is that Key and Peele sketch with the college football player names: "Ewokoniad Sigourneth Juniorstein."
Make sure you cover the Battle of Jakku too 😊
Loving the starwars videos. Animation is great!
Funny how much Disney's cannon sticks out in the story. You can always tell when their ideas pop up because the story becomes intermittently extra stupid
Was it the volcano exploding a ship?
For some reason I can picture Tech explaining all this while Hunter and them are board to tears. Wrecker picks up a blaster, tries to shoot himself just to find it either jammed or isn't loaded. Omega wants to throw herself out of the air lock but then remembered that the ship got Jacked.
"Piett... you fool!" The Emperor planned the strategy, but as the Admiral of the Fleet, it was Piett's responsibility to plan fleet tactics for the battle and counters for contingencies. Piett failed on both accounts. To start the battle, he threw away most of his fighter squadrons on an unsupported attack against the entire rebel fleet. So many pilots fell to crossfire between rebel fighters and flak from rebel capital ships, when rebel fleet engaged the imperial fleet at close range, there weren't enough imperial fighters left to screen the fleet. His flag ship was literally at the front line of the battle. Not only does direct participation in battle interfere with overall fleet command, it also made chain of command vulnerable to a decapitation strike, which happened. He never made any contingencies toward the possibility of the shield falling. By placing the fleet to the side of the death star, he effectively left the station completely vulnerable to fighter strikes. The Emperor might've been overconfident, but Piett's incompetence lost the battle.
Yes! More star wars battles!
Great video, i hope some time you could cover the legends version of this battle.
The Empire needed the big win. With the empire destroying Alderaan they make some many surrport the rebels. "Remember Alderaan" was not a justicfation for the rebels and a warning to others. Aftering destorying the deathstar, the rebels gain the myth that even if they lose they would come back stronger. Even the empire needed to bow to the political pressure they were getting.
Fantastic blow-by-blow of the battle. Very enjoyable, and nostalgic, to see. Keep it up W&W!
16:25 Intensify forward firepower!
Too late!!
Emperor Palpatine gravely underestimated The Rebel Alliance and Luke Skywalker. He wasn't expecting that Anakin Skywalker would turn on him at the last moment.
This series is awesome. We need more fantasy and science fiction series. Your fan from Sri Lanka. We always appreciate your hard work and dedication towards these videos. We know it takes a lot of time and hard work to make these videos. Brilliant. 🇱🇰🤝🏴
I was present
We kicked Imperial ASS 🔥🥃
Great Memories
recently I played the awakening of the rebelion mod for empire at war as the rebels, here was my fleet composition for endor:
3 MC80 Independence (Home One ) types
7 MC80 Liberty types
4 MC80a Alliance types
4 MC75 profundity types
5 Dauntless Battleships
6 Alliance Assult Frigates
3 Quasar fire class escort carriers
1 Mandator Super Star Destroyer
2 Corona frigates
1 E wing squadron
14 Y wing squadrons
25 X wing squadrons
6 B wing squadrons
10 A wing squadrons
3 U wing squadrons
And that's why we use the date of ABY
At last, this channel has a proper video. Thanks.
Did anyone else notice the Liberty cruisers were upside down the whole time? 😂
Id love to see a video like this with the different wars in the Command and Conquer series from both perspectives
What's funny is the Frigate force of the rebel fleet as you described it is much like its equivalent from my standard rebel task group in Empire War Basic except for the lack of the non-canon Assault Frigates (eight to twelve Nebulon-Bs, and four DP20s or two DP20s and two Marauders, three Assault Frigate IIs and an MC80 as the flag. That said my main fleet usually consists of around half a dozen such groups, with three or four in a reserve fleet, and high priorty targets get hit with two or three such groups. I usually have two or three groups roaming as attack forces, and when an attack calls for more then one group pull extras out of my main fleet.)
I would love to see your coverage of Legends Thrawn campaign.
Even decades later, i'm still taken aback by how much plot armor the rebels had for this battle : the Second Death Star on one hand, a full imperial Fleet (with a super star Destroyer) on the other ; two Mon Cal capital ships obliterated before the rebels could even engage the Imperial ones... and they still lost. It's beyond baffling.
No, it isn't baffling, lul. The Rebels losing 2 capital ships isn't an immediate death sentence. The Imperials lost because they were under explicit orders not to engage the Rebels. Evidently this fell apart somewhat when the fight devolved into a melee, but the order still stood nevertheless, and any Imperial morale would have been vaporized when the DS2 blew up. This is all in the fucking movie.
Mi compa que no le pone atención a la película:
Will you go into Legends?
Love the video you need to do more Star Wars like the battle of jakku
Terrific video. Love it! I have the book, "Moving Target: A Princess Leia Story" and it's a wonderful telling of the events of operation "Yellow Moon," as the story is told by General Leia Organa of the Galactic Resistance during a required-for-posterity-intended memoirs dictating/recording of the by then famous and instrumental Galactic Civil War Leader of the Alliance.
Any plans for the 40K universe?
The Ewoks maybe look adorable, but they are quite vicious fighters, all things considered. Still wonder how it would’ve worked if it the battle was with Wookiees on Kashyyk instead, as was originally planned.
Or... they increased the Ewok tech level to gunpowder... I think Imperials would underestimate how effective primitive firearms would be against their troops so they wouldn't see them as a threat... just a nuisance. But, with rebel's leading squads of Ewoks, giving directions, using their communicators to pass orders between teams, several hundred Ewoks would become a _huge_ threat to the Empire. *Shrugs*
But that's revisionist history... and Star Wars never does that.
I just found this channel. These videos are awesome and have lots of close details of all these epic battles :)
The battle that saw the prophecy of the Chosen One fulfilled.
Gotta love them little space bears.
Oh My God!
LMAO at that Leia picture/card ----> 06:24
She looks as if she just realized Luke was her brother after they kissed. 🤣
Could you do a video on the Dominion War from DS9?
I love how ewoks 11:00 looks like jabba's pigs, I mean these green ones with axes
I still find it funny how the empire lost. You have two superweapons in the battlefield, a DS and an executor. The executor alone would absolutely demolish this fleet, but Palpatine's arrogance is what caused his downfall.
9:36 Love how he mentions the Otana from X-Wing Alliance.
Been waiting for this. So excited
I love these. Thx!
6:28 leia face
Thank you. Excellent work.
Great clip
I honestly cant wait to see you cover Halo.
Can’t wait for the next Star Wars serie!!!!!!
I think that the mysterious yt freighter was actually the ghost because it is known that Hera fought on endor
Nice job with the battle animation
Great video
Absolutely love this 10/10 !!
Awesome video
But Just a small correction the Pride of Tarlandia was a unclassified battlecruiser and not a star destroyer
Excellent presentation! Kudos! Had to subscribe to your channel!
Huh. Guess I didn’t realize how many ISD’s got destroyed, nor how much damage the Executor took, that its shield generators had been destroyed, and its engines were rendered inoperable and essentially at low power or off. Always wondered, irritated, how a single lucky smack by an A-Wing sent it drifting towards the DS2 gravity well.
mannn this was so well done
It would be amazing to have a video covering the world of Almea of Mark Rosenfelder.
Excellent work guys! I'd like to understand better the power vacuum leading up to the battle of Jaku. Was Sloan there? Also where was Thrawn?
Can you guess how much time until the next star wars video?
This was a great victory for the rebel alliance
Shame you're not going to be doing Legends battles far more content and far more enjoyable than the post ROTJ canon stuff.
Awesome 👏
Great episode.
