Roger roger! Which Battle Droid variant is your favorite?
Maybe the Commando Droid,they’re pretty cool.
My favorite battle droid variants are all b1 battle Droids commando droids magna guards droidekas aqua droids super battle Droids super tactical Droids dwarf spider droids Crab Droids and rocket super battle Droids
I forgot about Magnaguards and Aqua droids
Magnaguards go hard
bx commando droid
While droids like the B3 and Droideka are certainly awesome and stronger troops, my favourite will always be the B1
The fact that they developed a personality and are more 'sentient' is 1 of the things that made the Clone Wars and other media like Lego Star Wars and Jedi Survivor so great
hi dude how are you
@@thesadistor-hl7lw Pretty good, thanks for asking
You?
@@jotheunissen9274 your welcome man so can I ask you something please
Roger
What’s the question?
Honestly if Darth Sideous wasn’t sabotaging the separatist movement the CIS could’ve been the greatest army in galactic history. I might be way in over my head but the CIS Droid Army will always be my favorite. Plenty of amazing droids and excellent variation
Yeah till the vong showed up then everyone is super fucked
@nihil2262 not really they made their biological weapons ships and armor to fight 2 droids who evolved to have the powers of gods and their literally armies who in their fight aginst each other wiped out all living beings in their way. Their weapons were made specifically for destroying all droids. That was one of their biggest issues with the republic. When they showed up, they saw what machines did in their galaxy and didn't want a repeat. Also they dont take advantage of biological weakness their weaponry its just so advanced nothing anyone can make will fight it.
They aren't even the "bad guys" most separatists just wanted out of a republic that was already falling apart.
The thing is, the goal of the separatists wasn't necessarily to have a great imperial state. Let's say Sidious is out of the equation - Dooku would have tried to reform the Republic, forcefully but fairly to some extent. The droid army would probably be used as a threat, an occupation force, but also a task force in case of catastrophes or to assist the Jedi.
Let's remember that one of the core reasons behind the very start of the Separatist movement if the refusal of the Republic to police the confine of the Republic, where pirates, slavers and smugglers had free reign. So contrarily to the Empire, the Republic under Dooku would likely concentrate its forces in its borders, to fight against real threats, instead of using it as a police force.
For most people, life would be the same. Dooku would be strict to the point of cruelty and the repression would be cold-blooded, but he would also be fair and ready to use diplomacy.
@@matthewchristian9591 I don't know about that. Per some old EU material a unit of B2s got reactivated during the Vong War and handily repelled an invasion of the world they were assigned to.
Best army in the Sw universe by a wide margin. Has ridiculous numbers which it didn't even need to rely on and probably the best tanks, starfighters, capital ships and infantry of all the factions. The AAT is just fantastic, and nothing beats the agile droid fighters supported by organic Separatist aces and the good old fashioned Providence destroyers with Gozantis and other anti-fighter ships, and the B3 battledroid is awesome.
And no lives lost (although that’s a grey area as shown during the Clone Wars)
You’re sounding like a separatist
@@chevyevvy this is why I hate flying 😉
@@lachlanparker570 I guess they can be repaired.
@@tk-6967 I didn’t think of that, but yeah. It’s like healthcare that heals you in a few hours instead of several months. Good thinking
The droidika is my favorite battle droid. I love the sound of the blaster bolts, the unique insect look of them and the energy shield.
Same, they're so cool
I love the separatists, the idea every tank, troop, and fighter is a somewhat sentient being capable of emotion is insane. Like take a look at the octoputarra for example, what are they thinking about? What is going on inside there head? Do those “monstrous units” communicate. It’s like the tyranids, where massive vehicles and tanks are living organisms, but these are machines, it’s amazing, and there designs are so cool
wasn't it in the Clone Commando game that the commando's actually found out the droid army out numbered the clones something stupid like 10'000 to 1? and they figured there was some kind of plot going on behind the scenes since Doku wasn't just sending millions of droids to straight up wipe out any clone base
the droids were the primary force of the separatists, as many separatists planets were not individually represented in the senate. The clones were a supplementary force to republic PDFs, and mostly served as space marines for planetary invasions. So even if the droids outnumber the clones like that, the CIS still has to transport, power, and set up all those droids, which is balanced by the PDFs already existing
@@bionodroid547cis was massively holding back
@@zfoxcrafter the cis was my preferred army, but it still has to be able to deploy troops. the clones are so much better pound-for-pound that they save immensely on ship fuel. the droids partially make up for this by not needing medicine or food, but they also have intense energy demands which slows the rate of their deployment and their potential speed of expansion. it is highly unlikely that they had anywhere close to a billion active battle droids of all types, and it wouldn't be necessary either. the war, if it wasn't a proxt, would have been won on control of shipping lanes
My favourite is the BX commando droids… it’s so cool and badass… Their well armed, armored, strong, and quick… If they were the main droid replacing the B1 droid in separatist alliance armies the war could have lasted longer, been more brutal, and many more alternative scenarios could’ve have happened…
The Sepratists would have won the clone wars rather quickly. Commandos are too good at their job that the writers had to scale back their power for main characters.
@@funveeablenah nightsisters owned them
@@Ty-nw5sxthe nightsisters were slaughtered
@@Ty-nw5sxyou mean night-slaughtered?
As a kid, watching a whole platoon of B1s come out of their transport in TPM was so cool. It's a bit weird that they have tanks crewed by robots instead of robot tanks but apart from that, the theme of a robot army and how it could work was done so well.
Probably to allow the vehicles to be manned by non-droids, like Durge or that one Kim Jong Un guy from the 2008 Clone Wars. Also it's probably easier to make a regular vehicle than to make and program a vehicle-sized droid...
I have no doubt that if Palpatine wasn’t manipulating both sides in the war then the droids would have stomped the clones
They would have they had millions of battle droids ready they were just not activated
Nah
Droidekas will always hold a special place in my heart when I think of the CSI army.
I remember when the visual encyclopedia for episode 1 from 1999 said the battle droids were made to look like dead mummified neimodians before the invention of geonosians
Huh? Neato I didn’t know that
You can tell Matt Wood had a lot of fun voicing the B1 droids.
you missed a few droideka variants: droideka oppressors and droideka sentinals were both produced too late for service in the clone war (in the same way as the droideka mark 2 or the hk 77) but were still droideka designs that the cis would have undoubtedly used.
From a lore perspective, alot of these droids that only showed up on one or two missions in total were probably prototypes being given a real world trial. They often failed their missions and therefore never ended up being mass produced.
No doubt the Techno Union probably produced a ton more prototypes that never even made it to the real world trial phase.
I'd like to think somewhere in the Star Wars universe, there's a Techno Union factory/warehouse where all of these are stored, in case future developments of droids ever require those concepts to be revisited.
You missed the scoreanex aka the Droidekas big brother and the few variants of the Droideka but I really liked the fact you covered droids that I’m sure not many people have heard of before so thanks for the cool video and all the work that went into it hope to see more.
My favourite faction in Star Wars, they're highly underrated but it is clear that they would have won the Cone Wars if the Jedis wasn't a part of the Republic Army.
Watching all the shows the Jedi never really struggled with battle droids, they make quick work of them. they really start to become scary when clones are facing them.
The only few droids that I notice Jedi struggle with are magnaguards and commandos. Destroyer droids can be overwhelmed or outsmarted quite easily.
3:28 The Cortosis Battle Droid, while technically being based on the B2 chassis, *isn't classified as a B2 model.*
Its correct model number is C-B3, being one of the two droids pitted against eachother to see which would be the successor to the B2, the other competitor being the B3 Ultra Battle Droid you mentioned immediately after the C-B3.
You forgot the Scorpenek droid that was seen in the Book of Boba Fett, it was made by the Colocoid during the Clone Wars for the Seperatists
You also missed the Scorpenek Annihilator Droid, basically a mega Droideka that was able to take down 100 or so clones in a single second. The factory that made them got destroyed by clones tho.
this vid came up while i was searching for battlefront vids im so glad it did this could be my new fav star wars channel on here have subbed and pressed the bell hello from Scotland
Droidekas are still the most awesome ones, and the B1 could have been effective if they had more CPU power to work with
I also always loved the separatist droid army and it's many cool variants.
I like how you use both cannon and legends, it makes your video's even better
great video. its quick and snappy but informative enough on each droid so we can gain good knowledge on them
honestly the b1 had the potential to be amazing multi-purpose droids for the cis. just some modifications and different programming to fit the role they are assigned to and they will be amazing droids to have.
Droidekas will forever be called Destroyers in my heart.
Yes, do one on the rebellion if they have different ranks/ variants of soldiers.
Very cool designs!
That’s what bothered me in TCW. The B1s should’ve been treated like an actual threat from the beginning.
Amazing video! Keep up the great work!
EZ sub
A fine addition to my collection (saves video in droids Playlist)
Honestly, the droid army seems like a much better idea. The clones are a literal slave army who have to fight to the death while always being heavily outnumbered. The droids are not sentient beings so there are no casualties. They don`t feel hunger or tiredness or cold or need air etc. They should also theoretically be better shots. Their brain is basically a computer that can just auto aim and fire.
You can`t really beat them in hand to hand combat either. It would be like a human having a wrestling contest with a terminator. The only thing clones have on their side is imagination and the ability to think on your feet (not exactly military valued qualities) and we don`t really see them using that. Instead they go out in Napoleon era like battles to shoot each other.
Sidious needed a slave army to ultimately kill the Jedis at once. They could not trust, or bond with droids as they did with the clones.
The droideka was one of the main things that got me into star wars as a kid.
Great video.
I just really love the ingenuity of the battle droids, my personal favorite will always be the b1
What about doing the Grand Army of Republic vehicles next?
I love the droids, the CIS is my favorite faction. I wish they weren't dumped down in the clone wars and constantly losing battles, which most of the battles they should have won.
All of the variants from every group interest me.
Little fun fact HK47 was well over 3,600 years old before episode one
More like 3982 years old.
@@matthewchristian9591 I couldn't remember his exact age I just knew it was over 3600
@tylerdunning7363 its cool just happy hk is still kicking during the galactic civil war he even fought veder on mustafar
A few Droid Gunships toting commando droids and some Droidekas would have been amazing to see on screen.
In Episode I, after the defeat of the gungans, captain tarpilas (dk how to spell) and jar jar binkers were led to a group of others to be executed. In the shoot we can also see some other droid fixing parts or smth. If I missed this out please tell me the time stamp and if not, idk give me a fact.
I love the droid army the best and the coolest powerful droid army the Galaxy as ever seen Capital ship CIS starfighters tanks and turrests Don't curisers underestimate droid army in star wars universe
The Infiltrator Droids sound terrifying! I would have loved to see them in action in The Clone Wars series!
Nice video about movie, very good.😊😮
2:22 Yo that E4 Baron Droid looks so familiar! Is it from the Phantom Menace video game?
You should do another video on every droid ship and tank
I rlly love the commando droids
I must say I didn’t know about many of these. I suppose they tried so many variants to try and get them an advantage.
I loved the commando droids because of that one episode in clone wars where they attack the base so the separatists could sneak by without the republic noticing
Im so glad Commando is Ally in new Game, He looks so cool with Trench Coat.
The magnagaurds were one of my favorite droids
When will you make a part 2 with the rest of the cis equipment like vehicles and larger droids
do the droid vehicle army next!
WOAH WOAH YOU CANT JUST SAY "CLANKER" WITH THE HARD R LIKE THAT MAN
Don't we have also this for rebel faction ? I mean it could be cool if they had some elite trooper too
I think my favorite is the sharpshooter droideka or whatever it's called
Do a vid in CIS canons and artillery
*WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS*
and also here's a classic
*Just like the simulations*
Can you do every First Order troopers?
I like the retail droids they look kinda funny and are probably good at ambushing
You should cover the Gungan army in a video
Easily one of the most fun armies in the setting. It is such a shame they're best remembered for Jar Jar.
I like the rolling droids that have force fields.
Do a video of every star war rebel tank
I don’t have autism, I swear!
I thought magna guards where designed by General Grievous after his kaleash body guards from before the clone wars.
Never expected to see the grenadier droid on here
B1's may be cannon fodder but if you take away their blaster rifle they're actually extremely cute
What about the new battle droid prototype seen in the battlefront 2 (2005) mustafar campaign mission?
I would crap my pants if I ever saw one of those huge super weapon B2 looking battle droids that are like 25 feet tall or something crazy
Unlike the stormtroopers droids actually hit their shots and dont miss.
Can u cover the clone and storm troops
Can you make more videos about the droids
🙏
we need a how it's made series that shows how each battle droid is created
Good points overall - but how do they stand upon against the clones' plot armor?
I always wondered why the CIS ships had atmosphere it seems unnecessary and if it was needed just use nitrogen.
From memory, you missed one. So, the flying B1 you showed? Back in Legends it had a MUCH different version which was shown first in a PSP game, before being adapted as canon to the old continuity, the B1-A Air Battle Droid. Thicker than the usual B1, with an integrated jetpack that has four folded wings that extend during flight for better manoeuvrability in atmosphere. They have two wrist-mounted blasters (one on each arm) alongside doubled-edged blades, one on each arm as well. They were meant to harass Jedi from the air to then swoop down for the kill with their own blades.
Their main weakness was that while thicker than a B1, they were still vulnerable as fuck, their speed being the only thing keeping them alive, and that their blades weren't anything special. For whatever idiotic reason, the CIS didn't think of using vibroblades on them. Back then, they were popular enough that they even showed up on the tabletop RPG that Wizards of the Coast made with Lucas Arts. For comparison, B1s are a Challenge Level 1 enemy, B2s are a Challenge Level 2 enemy, B1-A are a Challenge 4 due to how much they move and how devastating their charges can be if they catch you with your pants down.
Honestly, it sucks that Disney changed them for those bitch ass winged models. The old designs were WAY cooler, straight out of Transformers with the folded wings.
My fav are the infiltrator demolition droids because imagine your roomba suddenly Turns into a damn terminator and does a fusion dance with another roomba to make a bomb
B3s still give me nightmares from republic commando
You missed the hailfire droid (I think it’s called) and most of the tank/artillery droids as well as the ships
Do Kotor Sith faction next
In Star Wars episode 3 for DS there is a lot of B2 types but I don’t know if they are canon
watch out for those wrist rockets
You forgot my favorite the mouse droid
I'll always love the hail fire droids 🤙
I would like 👍 👌 to see The CIS Battle Droids vs. The Necromorphs from Dead Soace 3 who would win 🤔 🥈.
I think it's quite possible that the B1 were designed as a dissuasion or an occupation force (though still capable of fighting), when the separatists still thought that the Republic had no army to speak of. All subsequent models were vastly more efficient in combat, and also lacked similar personality quirks (which would have been useful for a temporary occupation force, as it would interact with people better). The high numbers, high mobility and versatility of the B1 made it a very good army to cover a lot of space fast without looking too "threatening", it was the perfect droid to occupy a few Republic worlds until they'd settle for advantageous negotiations.
Meanwhile, the clones were designed to fight actual wars. The Separatists probably had to refit a good chunk of their military industry to produce B2 and other droids en masse instead.
The real good guys
Cis forewer !!
I really like the B1s, because they are very funny.
Yay
Next (Rebels) !
Clankers incoming!
Why didn’t the rebels just build droid armies too😂😂
Hmmm
I would say the rebels didn't had the proper funds to build a droid army.
The seperatists had big corporations backing them up.
in clone wars i always thougt the red light from the super battle droids was an eye, i noticed like 1 year later the head💀
For reference, there's approximately 100 billion stars in the milky way galaxy...
SBD in republic commando are the most bad ass walking fortresses I've ever seen 😂
True just played through that recently. This guy forgot to add the scavenger droids from that game too.
What about the Hailfire Droid from Episode II?
There's really only one thing you need to know about the battle droids:
_WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS._
9:05 OMG CAMERAMAN😱💀
