It was important to fight together, but I always encourage a little bit of individual flair. Furthermore, I made sure to do plenty of simulated and live-fire exercises. Teach them about different combat and support roles. Try to throw them in the situations that were just so esoteric that you have to think creatively in order to emerge victorious.

    I don't think the fact that they had no covering on their hand was an oversight I think they did it on purpose because they knew that they would need the extra movement because if you think about it a B1 you see countless times get completely destroyed by civilians but a Super Battle Droid the only thing that I could think of taking it out without a gun would be r2d2 in Revenge of the Sith and that was with oil and Flame other than a Jedi you have no real reason to engage Super Battle Droid hand-to-hand a B-1 you don't need any special plating to destroy in any of the other droids that they might have encountered we're usually so rare that you can't outfit the entire Army to deal with it maybe he's special forces groups could use them more efficiently but a normal clone just has no reason

    Another flaw is that very few clones could adapt when things didn't go as planned.

      @CollinMcLean 2 роки тому +7

      I don't think that's so much a clone flaw as it is them being rank and file infantry.
      The Roman Legions for instance were invincible in an open field in an infantry vs infantry fight because they were trained to fight as cohesive units but if you put them in rough and/or forested terrain like when they were invading Scotland or Germany they could be placed at a greater disadvantage because unit tactics left them too slow to effectively fight back against a smaller more agile enemy force.
      It was also used to great effect by the Irish in their history.
      Plus there is the very nature of Guerilla tactics which is they are the ones operating on the offensive which also puts you at a disadvantage.

In later iterations of stormtroopers, aside from the Originals, they still continue to look less advanced in terms of armory.

      Clones aren’t suited to fighting organic armies and mandos would be hard to have a large scale army of, unless we’re during the Mando Neo-crusader times. In which they still lost to the republic.

      @Gaius Wyrden Clones had long training experiences at Kamino since their inception and birth as well. The difference in quality of armor and weaponry between the clones and stormtroopers isn't that extreme, as opposed to the drastic improvements made in the Imperial Navy compared to the Republic Navy (ISDs and Executor SSDs were far beyond Venators in power). Clone armor also does look more advanced than stormtrooper armor, even considering that stormtroopers came first in the Original trilogy, whereas clones came from the CGI-Prequels trilogy. Even in later stormtrooper iterations in other Star Wars media - i.e. Rebels or comics - stormtrooper armor just looks less advanced and more restricting in terms of body movement and agility.
      Also, consider that the U.S. Marine Corps is oftentimes not given most up-to-date field equipment as the other branches oftentimes, but is considered superior in terms of quality and skill to U.S. Army soldiers.

      The name alone isn't enough. Their performance must be up to the task at hand. And their performance in the films is absolute garbage.
      You could call Marines the Puppy Brigade, and they would still be far more effective on the battlefield and devastating to morale than those "Stormtroopers".
      On a side note: When it comes to determining the quality of troops, it's somewhat of a bad sign that they get singled out for guard duty...

    The one about the hand armor is very accurate, in one of the clone wars episodes/movies a clone is at the front of a charge, he loses his weapon, he whacks a seperatist droid in the head, it stuns it, he cries out in pain holding his hand, the droid then fires into his chest.

  • @Meravokas

    Honestly the biggest flaw in the GAR wasn't even the clones. As many singular clones led directly under Jedi were very personable toward others and gained levels of individuality even if they were still first and foremost fall in line soldiers. The biggest flaw with the GAR was that (likely due to Palpatine) there was no call to active arms for building militia forces or a volunteer army to supplement then take over for the clones after the war was over. Replacing the standing army of clones as units died. The biggest clone flaw was that they were the only soldier in the arsenal on a grand scale.

    • @hyperiongm330
      @hyperiongm330 4 роки тому +2

      Wrong. Legends features a massive draft effort of non-Clone soldiers starting part-way through the war, which would later form the core of the Imperial Army while the infantry Clones went on to become Stormtroopers.
      All loyalist sectors and many wealthier loyalist worlds also contributed their own militaries to the Republic war effort.
