Why Most Star Wars Fans Actually Don't Know Much about the Battle of Mygeeto

[@wetwillyis_1881]

The real reason most of us don't know much about the Battle of Mygeeto, is because Lego still hasn't made UT-At or proper Omnidroid set with the Galatic Marines yet.

[@squiddle5193]

I wanted that so badly that I bulit it myself, I even painted my precious Imperial Snowtroopers with a red sharpie xd

[@oriongear2499]

Heck, Lego hasn’t made a proper Commander Bacara Minifigure yet.

[@michaelandreipalon359]

Also, the fact that the planet's most interesting stuff are relegated to comics and novels. Not a good exploration point for people acclimated to televisual media.

[@geetslys]

Facts, otherwise we would've already known heaps!

[@falloutgamer347]

Dinsey could easily make a series on the battle of mygeeto. I would watch the shit out of that

[@masteroftheassassins]

"In the waning months of the Clone Wars, the 501st faced missions critical to the agenda of Chancellor Palpatine. When we arrived at the bombed out ruins of Mygeeto, our Jedi commander believed we had been sent to take out a droid energy collector. What Ki-Adi-Mundi didn't know however was that our unit of the 501st was really after an experimental Mygeetan power source, that the Chancellor wanted for his superlaser. Keeping Mundi in the dark wasn't easy; the Jedi had become increasingly wary of the Chancellor's doings, and was on the lookout for the slightest hint of treachery. Just like the rest of them though, he never caught whiff of what was really going on, until it was far too late." "The success of the mission on Mygeeto was something of a revelation for the men of the 501st. Suddenly, we realized that the Jedi could be fooled. And if they could be fooled, they could be killed."

[@Thechezbailey]

There's a belief among media execs and parents that kids need to be protected from that stuff. They're wrong, but that's what they believe. The show already pushed the limits of what a "kids' show" could show in many ways. Just remember, it wasn't made for you. A live action Clone Wars in the Band of Brothers tradition is what we need. 10 episodes, each about a different battle, following the men of the 501st or something.

[@JettQuasar]

The battle of Mygeeto occurred during The Clone Wars where there were conflicts across the Galaxy. It gets lost in the crowd.

[@HistorysRaven]

Which is strange. We know a lot about battles that barely lasted two months, such as the Battle of Jabiim, but barely anything about the longest battle. Though, I think we know a lot about Jabiim because there were six Jedi lost and Kenobi was presumed dead.

[@inquisitorgarza312]

This would be the equivalent to the Siege of Leningrad and considering how much life was wasted here will probably be the worst fighting of the war.

[@sambridgers9543]

Because more people associate Ki-Adi-Mundi with the droid attack on the Wookiees.

[@alejandroelluxray5298]

Man, Muuns never had a rest in the Clone Wars, literally all of their worlds were divided and working with both major factions at the time while also trying to run the IGBC, speaking of the mess that controling Banks actually involves, no Wonder bankers look so done with life most of the time, specially when you deal with space Leningrad warzone

[@silvertemplar8061]

Yes! They have to add more to canon about thus, or put a video game with a level. It’s the Clone Wars equivalent to Stalingrad. Yet I can understand, because of the fact the battle stagnated for so long.

[@alinhatnean6783]

Its more of an Leningrad siege than Stalingrad because , if we are honest, they couldn't break through, and only won after the droids were deactivated. Its kinda like Leningrad , but the difference is that the Red Army pushed away the forces

But atleast i have a friend who likes to watch the shows with me, we have sat trough the clone wars all the way to the book of boba and everything in between.

[@teleportedbreadfor3days]

Were there any stories like these on the Battle of Christophsis? If so, I was hoping you’d perhaps go over that, next.

[@yagdtigercommander]

I think the Battle for Kharkov would be the best example for Christophsis much like Geonosis was the constant capturing and recapturing from both sides until finally one of factions delivers a fatal blow to the other factions forces stationed around the planet or sector of galactic space forcing the enemy to cut their losses and retreat from the whole sector never being able to threating system again. So the Battle of Kursk in away was fatal blow to Nazi Germany in the east because much of the units that would have been used to secure and hold Kharkov from the Russians would have been diverted to the Kursk Counter Offense which was just an all out fight to the death basically in which Russia came out on top and forced the surviving forces to further retreat behind there lines.

[@zexalbrony4799]

Two things: 1.) If you're looking for other battles to do, how about the Third Battle of Felucia, since outside of Operation Knightfall, it's the one battle during the Clone Wars from the OG Battlefront 2 game you haven't covered in a video like this as you've already done Mygetto, Courascant, Kashyyyk, and Utapu. If not how about something else from the Outer Rim Sieges like the Battle of Catonemodia? 2.) While watching this video and thinking of the OG Battlefront 2 game because of the Mygetto level, I think I've come u with a way most of that game, at least the Clone Wars campaigns can still be canon: Since the 501st has many units, for the more sinister missions like the Mygetto one where they get the crystal for the Death Star have the unit lead by a dick Clone Commander who is evil like Vill or maybe Appo, but for the less overtly evil ones like Felucia have it lead by Rex or maybe Vaughn, it works out well with Rex since he participated in the first two battles of Felucia so Ayla and Bly could use his insight if Anakin can spare him for a bit.

@@dhaburuk6494 Salucami was home to force profits that had been telling of the fall of the republic and the rise of the empire. the sith considered this a liability so Palpatine labeled it an important CIS world to discredit it (and also had the secret CIS cloneing project made on it to be discovered by republic forces to further discredit the planet) this combined with its stragetic importance due to being on 5 major hyperspace lanes meant it was a good stageing ground for both sides.
