“This battle needs no introduction” proceeds to introduce it.
This has definitely been something on the long list of events we’ve wanted to do and it ended up being a blast, literally. Today is also the anniversary of when I made this UA-cam channel a staggering 11 years ago so it’s fitting with how much I enjoyed making the end of this video c:
Erm what the sigma
@@yusufmert9375 i hate your entire bloodline
Looks so fun, wish I could play. Happy 11th year!!
Happy Birthday! Your years are numbered and today continues the countdown!
Here’s hoping to see either Umbara or The Landing at Point Rain sometime in the future.
Stormtrooper: “I’ll believe that when AT-AT’s Fly.”
*Cue two AT-AT’s soaring through the air with one sticking the landing.*
Cuts to a Gozanti hauling two AT-ATs
"Yes, Lord Vader. I've reached the main power generators. The shield will be down in no time. You may start your landing." 🤞
“General veers prepare your troops for a surface attack”
"Target, maximum firepower!"
“ Deploy the fleet so nothing gets off the system, You are in command now Admiral Piett. “ “ Thank you lord Vader. “
"... right after we deploy the Mega Bomb, Lord Vader."
[Beat]
"The *what?*"
@Ultimus31 so apparently the death star *was* a trick as WPD (weapons of planetery destruction) do not need to be that big
I don't care what Jay says. The Empire planet cracking Hoth is now my personal canon
D E P L O Y T H E M E G A B O M B
Bruh same Hoth is In a nuclear winter now.
The Planet broke before the Rebellion did
Say no more, I’m in
Same
"This will negatively affect the schedule" is absolutely going to become a thing in my friend group
Up there with "This will affect the trout population"
Same with mine.
The Mega Bomb incident is ABSOLUTELY going down in Ignis history alongside Provins and the Battle of Fort Night Two XD
Don't forget the Great Desync Wave...
I found Jay because of The Great Desync Wave. What a wonderful day!
Don't forget the Dreadnought with enough missiles to kill every player twice over lol
The first time Bosnian Knight was deployed too
Actually, more reminded of barotrauma last episode. Epics are good 👍
9:20
"I lost 30,000 men in the blink of an eye, and the world just fuckin' watched"
General Sheppard. you now got a blank check.
The Imperials watching from orbit as the MEGA BOMB was deploying had to have been in abject horror knowing what had been done
"Did... Did they just drop the MEGABOMB?"
"...Vader's gonna fucking kill us, bring us back to life, and THEN shoot us out the airlock...."
No wonder Vader didn’t deploy on this section of the fight. He saw ignis was in it and was like “they got this. Eighter the rebels die, or they die with the rebels, I don’t have to deal with them eighter way”
Eighter???
@@datwitchyswordfanI’m sure he authorized the use of the mega bomb to get ignis out of his hair. That and if he looked at there combat record, he knew he wouldn’t last 5 minutes without killing someone out of anger from there stupidity.
@@blackgem12 more like they got this intense blend of expendable yet nigh indestructible.
@@datwitchyswordfan Either*
What i personally love about Hoth was that it showed the rebels being able to throw hands. I know that 'Big evil empire brought low by rag-tag resistance soldiers'- style is more popular to a general public. But I get more dopamine in seeing an actual full-scale sci-fi war going on between peer or near-peer beligerents.
That and it properly communicated what went on. 'why can't the empire just bomb the rebel base and has to abide by a direct land approach?' - ion cannon. 'yeah but what does the ion cannon do that prevents the imperial ships from just breaking atmosphere there?' - we see that in the film.
I don't need everything to make sense, be realistic or practical, but Hoth was a battle you could really get immersed in when watching it. Memories man, memories.
Still one of my favorite sci-fi battles of all time.
They also had a shield protecting the base from bombardment and air assault (shields of that kind prevent repulsorlift vehicles from passing through them) so the Empire had no choice but to land troops for a ground assault. The Ion Cannon was more for disabling Star Destroyers from attacking the escaping transport ships I believe.
@@witherwolf3316 Ah! my mistake. (a good excuse for me to rewatch it again as well :D It has been a while)
Still, I really dig that the rebels were able to bring two larger assets to bear in the form of the cannon and shield generator. Balanced battles make for the best suspense.
@@potentiallyunfunnyguy9716 You're still pretty spot on with your assessment. The Rebels were fighting a battle of attrition at Hoth, and when they discovered that the Empire had deployed AT-ATs to the surface, they responded with makeshift airspeeders that just so happened to have cables meant for hauling cargo. Wedge and Luke helped of course, but the Rebellion knew what they were getting into in order to buy time for the evacuation.
@@potentiallyunfunnyguy9716 Absolutely agree
4:16 Jay has been summoned to the Donner Party, who are able to testify that snow can in fact hurt you.
Not a reference I was expecting to see, but it checks out.
Donner party: by the way we'll be having a potluck dinner
Jay: what do I need to bring?
Donner party: just yourself😙
"Coordinates are *that big-ass pillar in the middle of this God-damn thing.* "
Said in true Ignis fashion. That one is an official member, for sure.
I love it when they break RP at 10:54 to discuss the absolute shitshow that was the MEGA BOMB...
10:14 the line “Are you happy sir?” goes so damn hard
Fun fact General Veers knew about the AT-ATs flaw with the legs being vulnerable. However typical military/gov ignorance ignored his warranted complaints and employed them anyway
Yeah and it ended up being the only way the Rebels were able to take them down. The snowspeeders were retrofitted civilian craft, their reactors could only barely power their guns and led to them being extremely underpowered. The usual Rebel craft X-wings, Y-wings, ect could very easily pierce AT-AT armor with proton torpedos and their much more powerful cannons.
It's also worth mentioning that this was a flaw in a lot of the Empire's weaponry and equipment- most of it was designed to conform with the Tarkin Doctrine, which called for overwhelming size and firepower to enhance the Empire's rule through fear.
Basically, AT-ATs, Star Destroyers, the presentation of stormtroopers, the composition of Empire fleets- it was all designed for the Imperial military to perform optimally as a political and psychological tool rather than a practical threat on a modern battlefield- hence also why the Empire relied so heavily on vast numbers of unshielded and hyperdriveless TIEs for fighter combat despite shielded snub fighters like the X-wing being conclusively proven superior in engagement after disastrous engagement.
TLDR; The problems with the Empire military were a product of its intended use as a tool of psychological warfare and suppression- it was never intended for even a remotely symmetric conflict, but to prevent a force capable of opposing the Empire from coming into existence to begin with- a purpose it failed at pretty much instantly, considering that the Rebellion got underway almost immediately after the Empire's formation.
@@fjnordthedwarf4004 Very good point, though I would say it's fair to mention that the TIE fighters were actually not bad fighters. Their design principles are reminiscent of the Zeros employed by the Imperial Japanese in WWII, very high maneuverability and solid weapons at the cost of effectively no armor, they perform well when fighting against craft of lower to equivalent capability, but once they're outclassed they have no chance in combat. Good for defensive screening and interception of enemy fighters, but if you try to use them in any other role you will experience catastrophic casualty rates of their pilots.
@@deucedice574 True. Interestingly, the whole thing with TIEs (not actually being that bad but constantly being deployed in situations outside what should be their combat role) happened with capital ships too- an overreliance on using ships designed pretty much for the sole purpose of fighting other capital ships of equivalent size meant many Star Destroyers routinely fell victim to tactics which simply wouldn't have worked if Imperial capital ships (and just fleets for that matter) had slightly more anti-fighter weaponry- not to mention the near-total lack of weapons effective for the class of capital ship they were actually facing with some regularity (i.e. small, relatively fast and fairly well-shielded)
I think it’s not entirely fair to say the Tarkin doctrine failed. The only problem is one inherent to authoritarian regimes: if you ever show weakness, it all starts to crumble down. For years rebellions were brutally put down (mandalore, mon Cala). It’s just that a gross amount of incompetence allowed for the rebels to win Yavin, and then there was hope. And “rebellions are built on hope.” If Krennic and Vader hadn’t both been so arrogant, Tarkin’s strategy would have remained effective.
"Hmm, I wonder if there's a canonical reason why they don't use nukes in the Star Wars Universe."
*-Watches this video-*
"Oh that's why."
Empire nuked Mandalore
The actual reason is there are better, less radioactive alternatives, except when you're Mandalorian, then the radiation becomes a feature
Love the thought of bean always having an animated part in every next video and its just him getting his shipped gunend down every time
The twister saga
Just gonna take a moment to appreciate the level of production Jay puts into turning what should otherwise be a goofy moment into something cinematic.
Thanks for keeping us entertained, Jay. I can't speak for everyone watching, but I know I certainly appreciate it.
The best part is the mega bomb wasn't even on target it was just dropped right on the friendlies lol.
The location of the friendlies was a known element. If they'd dropped it somewhere else, they might have missed XD
10:13 "ARE YOU HAPPY SIR!?!?"
Honestly. A pretty reasonable reaction.
I don’t remember the Empire glassing Hoth.
That sounds like rebel propaganda. The rebels deployed some new weapon called the “Mega Bomb”. If not for the glorious Ignis corps stormtroopers, these insurgents would have used this weapon on a planet people actually care about like Naboo.
I think it was in the Special Edition :P
The Empire and the Rebellion decided it was best to cover it up after the reality shattering explosion. Nobody knows how that experimental weapon was cleared for deployment when it wasn't even rated as being ready for use yet, and that's not even getting into the death toll on both ends and the long-term environmental effects it would have on the planet.
I do!
Oh they're doing hoth. That means AT-ATs. This can only go well (either for them, or for our amusement, is up for interpretation).
It'll go well for them or it'll go well for the rebels. One or the other :P I think it would be amusing for us regardless of which outcome they get XD
The Megabomb
I knew "This will negatively affect the schedule" was coming.... and It still got me
"No one complained about the cold on Hoth. We never felt it. Sure as hell felt that Mega Bomb, though."
Love the insinuation that the empire glassed half the planet to take out a backup shield generator base, but not for the entirety of echo base 😂
Tbf, he's flying a TIE Bomber, that's like trying to dogfight in an A-10.
Do NOT pick the A-10 even in "ground strike" missions, lest you want to hear the dreaded "Mission Update".
@@leonardusrakapradayan2253 having played Ace combat 7 and being a fan of the A-10 irl, I gotta say playing it on literally any other mission that isn’t purely against ground targets is very much a death sentence
Ignis: having trouble pushing up a bridge/base
Scorch: NOW I HAVE BECOME DEATH, DESTROYER OF WORLDS
I see Bean's attempts to be an Ace Combat protagonist are still failing even in the Star Wars universe.
I love da mega bomb, will call it in again
No don't too may lives were killed
Mmmm yessss Mega boooommmmmbb
9:24 *"Now I am become death, the Destroyer of Worlds." - Oppenheimer, 1965.*
Truly a Destroyer of worlds we have Created upon this realm.
9:18 Nier ost mix with the mega bomb was the most beautiful display of destruction, perhaps better than the Oppenheimer movie.
whats the name of the song pls??
@@MikaHolic_Channel_OFFICIALNeir Replicant/ Shadowlord
Glad to see that the Twister bloodline survived all the way into the Star Wars era
You have that backwards, Star Wars happened a long time ago: the Twister bloodline survived all the way into the Halo era.
That’s even more insane than the initial comment. How much kin does the twister bloodline have after millennia of exploding pilots.
@@vesnal7536about as much as the Carmine bloodline
5:50 actually made me take a spit take. Amazing work by all once more!
5:11 They're Phase Zero Dark Troopers, Jay, they're Cyborg Clones.
"Are you HAPPY SIR?" From the looks of it, Yes.
“Are you happy sir?” is by far, one of the lines of history.
Mega Bomb was the moment when Imperial Stormtrooper Corp won the hearts of Imperial Navy and Imperial Army
2:52
Fun fact: Just before we came into Jay's view, we did a kickflip with that thing
The first-person view of the AT-ST was pretty sweet. I'd love to see what the first-person view of an AT-AT cockpit looks like.
Bonus points if someone completely renders the rest of the AT-AT, allowing stormtroopers to move around inside the main body and repel to the ground. That would be dope as hell.
I don't know if that would even be possible in Arma 3 but I'd love it if someone would prove me wrong on that. AT-ATs are freaking awesome and I don't think I've ever seen a game use them to their full potential.
@@maddiepaige715 Would be easier to make them similar to helicopter/truck passengers, you just stand in the interior but can draw your gun and shoot out.
@@fus132 Probably, yeah. Given how slowly they move though, I can see them working similarly to the large ships in Ye Olde Battlefield 1942. I do remember them being a little (maybe a lot) glitchy but they worked XD
I hope the Mega Bomb becomes a recurring character, like the Bosnian Knight.
How much friendly fire do you want
“Yes”
Alright drop the *MEGABOMB*
I love how you have a cod 4 moment with not only foreshadowing but a active warning moments before the *Megabomb* its deployed WHILE under an active assault from the stormtrooper forces in the area.
“But sir, is that Canon?”
“I will make it Canon.”
So I guess when you drop a megabomb in star wars and enough hellbombs in Helldivers 2 at the same time a portal opens between both worlds. And the casualties are astonishing in both.
In a galaxy far far away... The Empire’s detachment platoon, Ignis Corp., was chosen handle the Rebellion on Hoth. A great battle ensued. With the rebels in sight an Imperial officer ordered he Mega Bomb to be used, wiping out the Rebellion and any deployed officers in the blast. It was a day of victory, and loss, for the Empire.
All because someone used a crazy Mega Bomb!
Personally, I enjoyed the video, and returning to see the antics of Ignis Corps once again. God bless you all and have a great day! :)
"Maximum Firepower"
(A sun forms on the planet)
"Too much Firepower!!!"
Time traveler: *accidentally nudges stone*
The timeline:
Another event to be immortalized alongside the Battle of Provins, the Great Desyc Wave and the Catastrophe of Fort Night 2.
Anything that uses the Shadowlord ost automatically becomes a 10/10
3:22 I can hear the pinky finger and tea sipping of that Imperial Officer. 😂
Was expecting a lot more "For/Long Live the Empire"
"Walkers, see the gun to the west?"
"Affirmative."
"Wipe it."
"Affirmative!"
The mega bomb being used on hoth is cannon I think it even has a lego set.
This was always my favourite map in Battlefront 2
You can always count on RubixRaptor to pull off the most GOATed edit whenever an Ignis-level catastrophe strikes.
I legit sighed and said "damn i wish Rubix would upload a new video" then saw this in my recommended i gonna say that more often
That was great psychic friend! Now say 'money should be falling from the sky'!
Wasn't expecting to hear Shadowlord during the MEGA BOMB incident but we take those.
saying LOAD MEGA BOMB in that almost distant multitasking raid leader way will always be funny.
That entire sequence at 9:16 was absolutely beautiful
9:27 *wipes single tear from cheek* its- its beautiful...
Damn, someone should place more rocks on that map ;) Thanks for using our mod!
He was in fact *not* engagement baiting when he said wait until the end
For anyone wondering the song used along with the MEGA BOMB is shadowlord from a game called nier by yoko taro
The mega bomb is the death star's younger distant cousin
This brings me back to the original battlefront. Rhen Var and Hoth were such fun maps
Oh my god, this IS the original Hoth map, they even have the secret tunnel!
always a good day when rubix uploads
"USE THE GD MEGA BOMB!" As the last thing you hear
You know, I don't think I ever expected to hear Nier's "Shadowlord" theme in a vid of yours. Song starts at around 9:06.
This is actually pretty lore accurate to the Empire's assault on Hoth. They had to fight on foot through a canyon where they lost a large part of their forces to the harsh environment before they even got to the main rebel base.
That ISD mega bomb was something out of 40K, blowing you all between dimensions gotdamn
That was fun.
I would like Ignis play as the Rebels next time.
Nice to see some Star Wars stuff.
There is something majestic about watching AT-ATs walk along a tundra, gunning down rebels.
Love the use of the classic shadowlord theme for the megabomb. The Nier games are great aren’t they?
Can’t wait for the inevitable Endor Op, where they crash all their speeder bikes in the first eight minutes and Tails gets deep-fried by ewoks
You know Luke managing to blow up an AT-AT by himself isn't as impressive after learning that the Empire blew up like 6 of them before they even got to the base.
This video has cursed me to forever say that any minor inconvenience will “negatively affect the schedule”.
Out of bread? Schedule’s ruined.
"Not another step!" 2:38
I know it didnt show up that often this video but i absolutely ADORE the little comm links with the ship crew. It brings us a small but impressionable view of whats a usually glossed over major force in most arma battles.
I sincerely hope that they become a mainstay whenever its practical to bring them around
Two things this has taught me. One arms and Star Wars is a splendidly chaotic combo. Two, ignis should not be trusted with weapons of mass destruction
Let us all shed a tear for the brave members of Ignis, and the MEGABOMB!
I love the pilot inserts.
About time you guys played the empire again. Ignis definitely fits the stereotype of stormtrooper canon fodder.
I was NOT ready for the mental flashbang of Shadowlord from Nier being used as the music for the mega bomb detonation
Brexo: the average imperial tie pilot
Rubix your editing is fantastic!
One of the things I love about Squad Galactic Contention and ARMA ops like this is seeing star wars as the truly brutal world it is.
Commander Muscle Man just broke every law of the space convention
So that's how the battle of hoth actually went down. Sounds like the rebels got a defensive victory out of that. Between the wave tactics and the mass murder of a stormtrooper brigade, things on this channel... and on the Ignis army Corp will NEVER be the same again.
Personally, this is the best video ever. I'm crying out of laughter 😂😂😂 Scorch is now a war criminal of criminals after that suicide move.
Saw the Mega Bomb unedited from Bepis' stream. Fantastic detonation, though next time I'd recommend not using it on a bridge.
Man I wish I got into Ignis last recruitment drive just for this OP alone lol, you guys always make Arma 3 look so much fun and love your videos in general Jay. (Even the non Arma ones)
_"It is human nature to seek culpability in a time of tragedy. It is a sign of strength to cry out against fate, rather than to bow one's head and succumb. Inevitably many shall fault the hands upon the sword which felled Typhon, the Ordo Malleus. But the Inquisition merely performs the duty of its office. To further fear them is redundant; to hate them, heretical. Those more sensible will place responsibility with those who forced the hands of the Inquisition. With some fortune, they may foster this hatred into purpose, and further rule their own fate by coming to the Emperor's service._
_Yet ultimately, it was I who set these events into motion, with a single blow from my hammer, God Splitter."_
Now THIS is the real victory and death
9:38 “Eagle-1 never misses”
MEGA BOMB is now canon and no one can tell me otherwise
This was a amazing video I love it keep up the great work and Long live the empire the ending was majestic ✨️
Megabomb needs to be the next “we gotta get outta here!”
“Use the megabomb”
We had a schedule to keep and by Lord Vader we were going to keep it.
Mega bomb or not.
I love how the first 9 minutes of this battle were pointless because they just nuked the base anyways, and annihilated their whole assault force along with the rebels.
Okay, who gave the Galactic Empire a Hellbomb?!
Can't say I was expecting Shadowlord to play.
What a pleasant surprise, magnificent.
This was majestic, good shit Jay
The irony of Arma 3's broken vehicles physics since the first update making the AT-AT's actually stable and balanced is probably galactic sized.
I hope Ignis keeps doing Star Wars videos, because each one they do increases the chances of one of the Imperial officers being Cockney and I really want to see that
