OOM-9 is the greatest B1 Battle Droid ever! Dude didn't deserve his fate. He would have been a great commander for the CIS army. I miss him alot. I'm glad Star Wars Galactic Battleground gave him the love and respect he deserved by giving him a campaign of his own. 10/10 best B1 Commander in all of the Trade Federation/CIS/Droid Armies ever!
I’ve said this before and ill say it again, an mass produced army of Commando droids would steamroll any and all opposition akin to swift terminators mowing down human resistance cells, no doubt whatsoever.. those buggers would be horrific.
@@cjthebeesknees Oh 100%. Unless you have very powerful heavy artillery like an AT-AT, then an army of Commando Droids will do you in. Like with the Magna Guards there very agile and hard to hit, like in that hallway scene in the Citadel arc in Clone Wars season 3.
It's funny how in universe the Droideka is supposed to be this near invincible threat, yet in Republic Commando its more nuisance than anything serious. Whereas the B2 Super Battle Droids are more constant, and more difficult to bring down.
Always remember to *WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS!* Oh wait, wrong game. 😂 Also, who was much more of a threat in games? Republic Commando B2 Super Battle Droids, or Halo 2 Legendary Jackal Snipers?
I’d love a series about some clones doing a mop up operation on a droid facility only to go rogue and have some clones and troopers fighting for their lives and freedom both trying to preserve and find a way to proliferate themselves and maybe get a little revenge for their lost comrades and being used and discarded. Bonus points if they find some of anti-troopers and or some third gen troopers and droids Bonus points if it’s some republic commandos and their droid counter parts like the droid commandos etc.
Battle droid: thank you, you know with how many people call us funny you’d think we have a tv show but noooooo only the Knock off storm troopers can have shows
Gotta say Geetsly, I just wanna say that I have loved your videos over the past couple years. The amount of depth you go into for any topic is unbelievable and you have probably become my favourite Star Wars UA-camr. So thanks for doing everything you do.
Geetslys, I’m glad you asked. I have many questions relating to the third parties of the clone wars. 1.) What variety of spacecraft was used by the Hutt Cartel? 2.) Which had a better naval fleet, the Hutt Cartel or Hondo’s Pirate Gang? 3.) What was the best vehicle in Hondo’s pirate fleet? 4.) How well would pirates such as Hondo Onaka fare against clones? 5.) How much Territory did Hondo Onaka control and was it contested often, if at all? 6.) Were there other pirate gangs other than Hondo’s? 7.) What did Grievous and other separatist leaders think about the Hutt empire? 8.) What would’ve been the outcome if Jabba had joined the CIS after his son was kidnapped? (Any answers to these questions would be greatly appreciated)
1. Very diverse, depended mostly on the individual pilots/pirates 2. the hutts, if they would pull together, could easily operate Hondos rag-tag fleet. There is a reason, Hondo didn´t work for the hutts. 3. Eclipse class freighters/frigates, the pirate tank on the ground. 4. By dumb luck they could probably escape, but thhey couldn´t probably stand and fight, or run a guerilla campaign against the republic wouldn´t last for long. 6. Probably a lot, we see one such gang in the mandalorian. 7. A variable of great significance, lost early in the war, and now cooperating with the republic. a Wild Card by any other name. 8. I´m not too sure, a victory for the confederacy is out of the question though, since palps would´ve made the gains largely irrelevant, by gaining in diffrent areas of the republic.
If there was a show following a B-1 through the war, like it sees operation in most of the theaters and the show followed him through it that would be sick. He could see some of these crazy droids throughout it.
I still have the New Droid Army on GBA, which features the Cortosis Battle Droid, so I recently played it on Jedi Master, and they are quite lethal! They gunned me down and cut me to ribbons with their wrist blasters and blades. Quite badass.
The section on magna guards just made me realise just how impressively skilled Ahsoka is in the film. One of her smartest choices was taking out Grevious' Manga guard first and dealing with the 2 "lesser" manga guards after.
I love the color marking for the droids the variety is what inspired me to build a Lego army when I was a kid can still remember what they signify. Yellow is for droid commanders Red is for dedicated security fir warships and vips Blue is for droid crews on warships Green is for tank/heavy vehicle drivers during the clown wars. Orange and grey were jet packers (remember the pod hunters) You even had fire fighter droids with shades of red black and yellow
@@zexalbrony4799 Who bloody cares! Would have been a sweet death worthy of Star Wars Valhalla... especially when compared to disgusting portable nuke launchers.
@@michaelandreipalon359 Maybe I would have been okay with it if I could play as a Clone with a gattling gun so I could go out like Hevy and Thorn. Now that would have been a sweet death.
The reason behind it was because it would be weird and out of place to have an unity that could go against heros in melee They wanted heros to feel MORE SPECIAL than the common troops Which is dumb, but it worked though
I remember one map on the classic Star Wars Battlefront that made the droidekas particularly dangerous. There was a small ice cave that acted like a choke point. One or two droideka’s could hold that point against a much larger clone force. I think I lost a few instant action games from the AI charging on mass to their deaths in those caves.
24:30 the “T pose” has somehow infiltrated the Star Wars universe lol 😂. Bro I just had a major cyberpunk flashback when I saw the pose and I just had to put it out there, let’s see if anyone gets it…? 😅
The droid may be Less expensive than the clone army, but one clear advantage 🤔 they are dangerous in excess large quantities. As seen at Battle of Naboo, the droids came close to winning the intense battle. Very impressive video.
Honestly if I could have my favorite Star Wars ship I would have at least half my crew be made up of fully sentient IG-100 magna guards and then I would keep a platoon or two of bx commando droids in a cargo hold for emergencies
I think the reason B1 commanders weren’t remembered was because they used numbers and not nicknames unlike clones plus painting another B1 with the same paint and they are identical.
Which goes to show you just how much of a standout powerhouse Ahsoka Tano was. That scene where Ahsoka destroyed the one Magnaguard and was fighting off the other two up to that point? That was only midway through her *second* year as a Padawan. Compare her performance with the *recently Knighted* Mon Calamari in Grievous’s stronghold during the earlier shot. That guy died.
To give the mon cala some credit, he held against them for a few seconds. And it seemed pretty clear he was knighted a bit too early. But this is all speculation. At the end of the day, you are right. Lady Tano was definitely in a league above the standard padawan and even some knights.
I'm beginning to appreciate the efforts Palpatine and Dooku had to make to keep the war from going too much in favor of either side. The Republic would've been forced to the negotiating table otherwise, I think. On the flip side, did the Trade Federation really want the conflict to go so far? Look at their motives. They want the freedom to do their own thing and the Republic had no reason to go to war pre Naboo blockade. As the Viceroy exclaimed, "We want peace!"
Requesting Geetsly channel do a video covering the separatist supply ship that seemed to only ever appear in the clone wars show. It's weird since it looks like two hemispheres connected by a bar and was made to replace the lukerhulk because of cargo space issues with the lukerhulk. Despite that it just looks ridiculous and I'm not even sure how effective it actually was in its role.
You know watching this I’m realizing how oddly small Star Wars battles are. Like, the number of soldiers involved in a battle for an entire planet will be smaller then the numbers at some individual battles in the world wars.
The GAR had like 3 million clones. Or at least thats the number stated on Jedipedia, which seems to be incredibly small. Bit i guess very often the republic just sent a few thousand troops to Planet to set up some defense, train the local population to fight and leave some equipment and then move to the next system
it sounds like the magnaguards is using some version of gorila tactics. a squad of 100 of those in the correct area would easly be able to stop several legions of clones. just think how dangerous they be in a jungle or a slum. lots of places to hide, able to strike fast take out a squad here, destroy couple100 clones there, and over a few hours the legions would be destroyed or have heavy losses.
@@JohnGeorgeBauerBuisthat would require Intel I propose the cis to have superior intelligence in such a scenario. Though they appear bumbling and controlled by the dark side to fail always in a more ideal situation they seem to win.
There was a droidika model that had the ability to fire its blasters while in ball form. It wasn’t accurate in that form but it could still fire as it rolled into position. I only know of the model being seen aboard the katana fleet when admiral thrawn and the new republic were trying to take the katana fleet. They went into combat mode and started killing anyone they could find aboard the ships.
I remember some weeks ago I read a comment somewhere that the most accurate in universe representation of B2 supers in games is EA battlefront 2, being the middle ground between the standard grunt of og battlefront 2 and the monster of republic commando and I pretty much agree
The magnagard scene at 36:00 doesn't really show much. They didn't exactly fight. The jedi dueled greveius and then got stabbed in the back. A b1 battledroid could have done that.
Long live the Confederacy of Independent Systems! On god they’re the most underrated faction in the entirety of Star Wars! One way Rise of Skywalker might’ve been saved is if instead of the magic fleet that materialized out of nowhere at the end. It’s actually General Kalani after having rebooted and put to production many underground droid factories to use the full might of what would’ve been at the end of the Clone War had palpatine not issued the shut down order.
It's not pronounced O-O-M-9, but oom-nine. At least according to himself in Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds. I actually name all of my computers OOM-(sequential number) in honor of OOM-9
Man, one of the biggest weaknesess of Clone Wars era Jedi Knights is not utilizing the Force enough in fights. They rely too much on lightsabers. YOU CAN MOVE STUFF WITH YOUR MIND! Why do you use a glowstick instead?
I played astar wars game and I absolutely hated going against the droidka cause they would swarm you till you are blasted to particles so you had to be quick and destroy the scouts before they swarm and all you had was a lightsaber and few force powers to aide you plus you had to escort a couple of civilians that totally got in your way and if they died so did you and you could not forcefully move them or game over
Wait. Why was OOM-9 shut down when the Droid control ship was destroy, I thought only the army of B1 battledroids are the ones that needed the ship. OOM are just regular security droids
I was just thinking about the diffrent Computer types each droid producer uses, in regards to maybe explain diffrent price tags, and their diffrent capabilities in regards to combat (note all just headcanon, absolutely no basis in canon or legends): Geonosian droids operate using standard electrical current, "easy" to manufacture, easy to improve, easy to mass produce, hard to fail in. BX, and the higher B-numbers are just supercooled, helping the electron transmission by removing conductor resistance. Colicoid-Droids (Droidekas, Skorpeneks and Protodeka) use optical currents, exceptional reaction time since signals get literally tramsmitted at lightspeed, hard to produce, hard to get right, hard to improve and maintenance is a bitch. Holowan labs (Producers of magna guards or the IG-Series) use gamma radiating optical circuits. Long active, otherwise add what I wrote about optical circuits, way better suited for operating in hazardous environment.
Question for geetsly! Do you think a magna guard droid or squad of them is capable of takimg down master chief or any other spartan, if you could, make a vs video about this!

35:35 , alternatively:
Grievous: “Murderer? Hardly know her.”
Wait. Why was OOM-9 shut down when the Droid control ship was destroy, I thought only the army of B1 battledroids are the ones that needed the ship. OOM are just regular security droids

I was just thinking about the diffrent Computer types each droid producer uses, in regards to maybe explain diffrent price tags, and their diffrent capabilities in regards to combat (note all just headcanon, absolutely no basis in canon or legends):
Geonosian droids operate using standard electrical current, "easy" to manufacture, easy to improve, easy to mass produce, hard to fail in. BX, and the higher B-numbers are just supercooled, helping the electron transmission by removing conductor resistance.
Colicoid-Droids (Droidekas, Skorpeneks and Protodeka) use optical currents, exceptional reaction time since signals get literally tramsmitted at lightspeed, hard to produce, hard to get right, hard to improve and maintenance is a bitch.
Holowan labs (Producers of magna guards or the IG-Series) use gamma radiating optical circuits. Long active, otherwise add what I wrote about optical circuits, way better suited for operating in hazardous environment.
