This video is literally every conversation I've ever had with a Special Forces guy working foreign indigenous defense (FID) after he got back from Afghanistan
Eh, that's because they're trying to train farmers and workers to fight soldiers. If they were working with local soldiers, instead of fighting them, the training would have gone much smoother, or way worse depending on how open they were to the help. Real life humans are much better at war than the SW humans. And a larger amount of us have both been in militaries and are serving in militaries compared to the total population of both the Earth and the Republic. Also if they had sent drill Sargents instead of SF, they probably would have been more effective. The problem is SF are elite and expect the guys they're training to meet a lower but similar level. A boot camp would just teach them team work and how to not run away and shoot back. SF are great soldiers but the not best trainers for the situation. Of course that's why we use SF, we aren't building an army, just some terrorists to help fight.
@@majinjason The main mission of Green Berets is embedding in and training local militia forces. Sending Drills would have met with no better success, as the main issues of no motivation and habitual drug usage would remain within the forces being trained.

Idk, they were born and bred for it, and they had certain parts of their minds altered to be better soldiers, so it’s possible they absolutely loved it and they were most miserable when doing anything other than battle.

The USA and the Soviet Union* The Soviet Union's international interests were centered around spreading communism. A key tenet of that political philosophy is ideological world conquest.

Makes sense, clones were literally bred to fight together and taught Standard strategy and military techniques, Throw in a local population into that mix however and you basically throw a wrench into a well oiled machine
Umbarans seemed to be the only competent and elite fighting force in the galaxy before the Clones were made. I bet the Umbarans could wipe the floor with the virgin Stormtrooper Corp
Clone troops set an IMPOSIBLE standard for the average soldier ( genetically engineered, trained from birth by elite fighters like Jango Fett, organized and treated more like machines then men, and so on). So of course locals might be considered " inferior" or " bad soldiers".
@Adam and Eve training all of them to be as good as arc troopers would probably take much longer and just think of how much more expensive it would be to give every clone arc trooper equipment.
Its crazy how the Clone Wars only lasted 3 years but it seems like it has so much more lore and stories than the Civil War which lasted far longer and was really what Star Wars was about
It was really 3 years????? I never knew that??? Damn that shit felt like it lasted longer or something. Why would the creators make it 3 years? 🤨. I actually thought it lasted 10 years or something tbh
We're their any locol defense forces or militia that were organized and decently armed enough that the clones did like working with? Also what did the clones think of the republic judicial forces and how often did they have work together?
Hey Geetsly idk if youve already done a vid on this.. But if not the worlds that had armies that where pretty decent that worked with the clones would be a good follow up vid off this one.. If there was any? Im sure there would have to be the star wars galaxy is pretty big.
Clones: Hey natives I see you have your own traditional battle tactics Natives: Yes Clones: Well throw it in the trash along with your opinion cos I am gonna teach you new stuff
I just watched a show about how training locals is a huge part of the mission for a modern SF soldier IRL. The military is training lots of new SF soldiers for that particular job with some concern that they are reducing standards to make quota.
''What none of us had counted on was the wookies. We'd all heard the stories, of course, but we'd never fought next to them, never seen them rip apart a droid with their bare hands. They were magnificent'' Lol

This reminds me of a book I read ww2 American 5th army ( 5th allied army) the American commander had to equip and supply allied forces from several dozen countries mostly American and British or commonwealth imperial forces with different food weapons munitions different religious needs diet and chaplains and it was a difficult campaign in Italy
Something doesn’t add up. When Mando and Cara Dune first meet Moff Gideon on Navarro, Mando says his name was only in the records on Mandalore so that’s how he knows it’s really Gideon, who says he might recall what an EWEB is capable of based on its use during the Night of a Thousand Tears... which happened on Mandalore. BUT we later learn that Din Djarin is part of the Childern of the Watch and they don’t travel to Mandalore because they believe it’s cursed. That plus Mando thinks the Children of the Watch are the only real Mandalorians, but if he was on Mandalore he’d realize he was part of a small splinter group. His alleged presence on Mandalore during Moff Gideon’s assault is a massive contradiction to when he tells Bo Katan that he avoids it because he thinks it’s cursed. I could be wrong, but if I’m right then there’s some serious clarification needed from Dave Filoni. I love the show, but when I realized this I just couldn’t stop thinking about it. Please make a video on this or at least share your thoughts on it in the next video :)
I just started the video but I’m gonna guess that it’s because when working with clones they know their brothers abilities and limits but when working with some random ass villagers and stuff they don’t know what they can do so they can’t actually trust them to do anything important
Hey I’ve been wondering. Are there any Wookies that speak English, or any other language? If they can’t, then why not? As they can understand it when it’s spoken to them? I feel like the excuse is gonna be that their vocal cords can’t form any complex sounds, just roars and growls and moans and groans and whines... but I would argue that since they have very human looking mouths with tongues and teeth, and they can make all the noises they can, then they clearly could learn to speak other languages than just their own roaring language. Does anyone have an answer or example of a Wookie actually speaking?
They're supposed to be hyper intelligent, even having their own hyperdrive technology, just preferring their wood over 'durasteel'. If we look at the iconic chewbacca it does seem they understand, but meet the human sorta halfway. But that's a non-answer. Here's what you're looking for Legends: Ralrracheen, the ambassador of kashyyk that had a speech impediment, which made him understandable to humans. Canon: no. Beyond that, the reasoning is what you'd expect; alien muscles and vocals, can't make the same earth ape noises that we know as English
Chimps and gorillas also have human like mouths yet cant speak. Because theynkack vocal cords so that's what's going on with wookies. They can understand and learn to sign I'd imagine. As apes are able to do so and wookies are certainly smarter then a chimp.
Some Humans can learn to speak Shyyriwook (Wookie language) but with great difficulty and such people are rare, however Wookies cannot learn to speak Galactic Basic (English) at all because their vocal chords can't make the sounds, but they can learn to understand it fluently, like Chewbacca.
The clone wars take aspects from a number of different conflicts, among them the Cold War, the US Civil War, the First and Second World Wars, and even the Napoleonic Wars in some aspects.
the invasion of kashyyyk never made much sense to me, so any reason they can add to it helps, but when the movie came out, was like why??assumed they just wanted to show kashyyk, one of them bucket list items,
In my head canon My company of the grand Army of the Republic is made of planes who chose to battle for liberty because they have paid pensions. And conscripts who want to “blast the battle droids of the planet”
The only instance of using locals that went well (that I know of) is Gaftikar. The Marits, who the human settlers had brought on-world to build settlements, were backed by the Republic, who brought in a Null ARC and later a Republic Commando squad to train and equip the lizards. Part of Special Forces' job description is working with and training local forces, so this went very well. (Read up on the Green Berets if you want, they exemplify this) The Marits hit targets to get the humans' attention, before an air assault from the 41st Elite crushed all resistance. Compare this to the shoestring operation on Onderon, and the difference is apparent. The Marits had no contact with regular Grand Army forces, and the men they _did_ work with were trained for the task. Needless to say, this state of affairs is the exception that proves the rule.
How bad was the training of Local Defence Forces? Modern basic infantry training is what, around 12 to 16 weeks? That produces competent soldiers, but PDFs couldn't do so in the lead up to the Clone Wars?
One of the big problems is that besides a couple of warrior cultures like the Mandalorians, the galaxy had enjoyed a thousand year long golden age of peace with no major wars, so most local forces were basically in the same tier as cops. The republic also had put a bunch of restrictions on the militaries of member states.
I feel like a lot of these problems could have been avoided if the Republic had formed a traditional army on top of the clones. The racial diversity could help with local relations and easier to use weapons would help arm militias. Sure they wouldn't be as effective as clones, but more blaster pointed towards the enemy can only help.
As much I love the clone army and yes I agree they are the best military force in star wars universe but something with nessaserry to work with the local population in order to win in a important battles.
Well, I definitely didn't know that. So did all Clone units hate fighting with the Locals, because I think at least a few liked them enough. I mean I imagine on Mon Cala and Mandalore they were happy for the help since for Mon Cala they weren't exactly pros in the water while the Mon Calamari were, and on Mandalore, the Night Owls really came in clutch near the end with that surprise sky attack on Maul's force to save the overwhelmed 501st.
I imagine that working with Mandalorians the clones have a lot fewer objections. they were trained by the Cuy'val dar and if 75% of your instructor ARE Mandalorians I feel like their tactics are instantly more recognizable and they feel less like an unknown variable. I imagine there would still be difficulties but no different then fighting alongside clones from another Corps who developed different strategies and preferred tactics from the different engagements they fought during the war,
@@michaelhowze8198 I mean, would you prefer to have your local troops go to a war they're not ready for? Them being in cities and reserve leaves them an easy job. It would be illogical to refuse. If they did refuse, then that could lead to several problems, but they HAVE to, as they're apart of the Republic, and therebefore have to follow its regulations.
admit, fox vs thorne never followed up on much but, which red captain is next to cody at 5:45, looks like fox the hated one, rip fives, actually, what is that picture from??a mod or something

Chimps and gorillas also have human like mouths yet cant speak. Because theynkack vocal cords so that's what's going on with wookies. They can understand and learn to sign I'd imagine. As apes are able to do so and wookies are certainly smarter then a chimp.
Some Humans can learn to speak Shyyriwook (Wookie language) but with great difficulty and such people are rare, however Wookies cannot learn to speak Galactic Basic (English) at all because their vocal chords can't make the sounds, but they can learn to understand it fluently, like Chewbacca.
The clone wars remind me of the cold war and the american civil war mixed together were they inspiration or just a coincidence
The clone wars take aspects from a number of different conflicts, among them the Cold War, the US Civil War, the First and Second World Wars, and even the Napoleonic Wars in some aspects.
@@konstantinosnikolakakis8125 how do u know which wars is it stated somewhere
the invasion of kashyyyk never made much sense to me, so any reason they can add to it helps, but when the movie came out, was like why??assumed they just wanted to show kashyyk, one of them bucket list items,
I can only imagine why.
In my head canon My company of the grand Army of the Republic is made of planes who chose to battle for liberty because they have paid pensions. And conscripts who want to “blast the battle droids of the planet”
That canceled bad batch story you mentioned could make a comeback i imagine
Love your videos dude keep it coming
The only instance of using locals that went well (that I know of) is Gaftikar. The Marits, who the human settlers had brought on-world to build settlements, were backed by the Republic, who brought in a Null ARC and later a Republic Commando squad to train and equip the lizards. Part of Special Forces' job description is working with and training local forces, so this went very well. (Read up on the Green Berets if you want, they exemplify this) The Marits hit targets to get the humans' attention, before an air assault from the 41st Elite crushed all resistance.
Compare this to the shoestring operation on Onderon, and the difference is apparent. The Marits had no contact with regular Grand Army forces, and the men they _did_ work with were trained for the task. Needless to say, this state of affairs is the exception that proves the rule.
i thought the same early on in the SWTCW during the freeing ryloth arc. glad my hunch was right
This kinda makes me wonder if there was a local people the clones liked fighting with? Sorry I don't really know starwars lore
I know I am a year late, but they commented about the wookies and how they were magnificent.
The video is exactly 10 minutes long, nice
How bad was the training of Local Defence Forces? Modern basic infantry training is what, around 12 to 16 weeks? That produces competent soldiers, but PDFs couldn't do so in the lead up to the Clone Wars?
One of the big problems is that besides a couple of warrior cultures like the Mandalorians, the galaxy had enjoyed a thousand year long golden age of peace with no major wars, so most local forces were basically in the same tier as cops. The republic also had put a bunch of restrictions on the militaries of member states.
"bruh stfu" LMFAO
I feel like a lot of these problems could have been avoided if the Republic had formed a traditional army on top of the clones. The racial diversity could help with local relations and easier to use weapons would help arm militias. Sure they wouldn't be as effective as clones, but more blaster pointed towards the enemy can only help.
As much I love the clone army and yes I agree they are the best military force in star wars universe but something with nessaserry to work with the local population in order to win in a important battles.
TH-cam: unskippable US Army add
Irony: *Why hello there*
“ man fuck these aliens “
“ Yeah, why are we, trained warriors bred for combat working with villagers? “
“ exactly bro “
Great video overall, Love the detail and lore.
Well, I definitely didn't know that. So did all Clone units hate fighting with the Locals, because I think at least a few liked them enough. I mean I imagine on Mon Cala and Mandalore they were happy for the help since for Mon Cala they weren't exactly pros in the water while the Mon Calamari were, and on Mandalore, the Night Owls really came in clutch near the end with that surprise sky attack on Maul's force to save the overwhelmed 501st.
I imagine that working with Mandalorians the clones have a lot fewer objections. they were trained by the Cuy'val dar and if 75% of your instructor ARE Mandalorians I feel like their tactics are instantly more recognizable and they feel less like an unknown variable. I imagine there would still be difficulties but no different then fighting alongside clones from another Corps who developed different strategies and preferred tactics from the different engagements they fought during the war,
That thumbnail tho
I'd simple leave the planetary forces as reserve and city protection, basically separating them from the battlefield.
And if they disagree I know I would. What do they do then?
@@michaelhowze8198 I mean, would you prefer to have your local troops go to a war they're not ready for? Them being in cities and reserve leaves them an easy job. It would be illogical to refuse.
If they did refuse, then that could lead to several problems, but they HAVE to, as they're apart of the Republic, and therebefore have to follow its regulations.
I can not seem to find Relax Jack in the TH-cam Music app search. Why would that be?
loved your star wars videos their are so awesome and cool
Hey Geetsly’s! Happy New Year!
I thought the Wookies did fairly well with them.
admit, fox vs thorne never followed up on much but, which red captain is next to cody at 5:45, looks like fox the hated one, rip fives, actually, what is that picture from??a mod or something
What if we get to see the unaired TCW episodes in the Bad Batch show?
I have a feeling we might see the Bad Batch on Kashyyyk in their upcoming series.
Wow that's quite a thumbnail
Love to see some kotor content sometime eventually love clone wars but be nice for a change 👌
Bru that thumbnail lol
Thumbnail gave me a heart attack
Shatterpoint is still one of my favorite SW books.
Number one cause of plan failure: other people not doing their damn job xD
After a week or so of watching I think it’s time you get my subscription my friend.
I admit to being a cloneist. They all look the same to me
