"Tens of thousands died for the planet" The 1.6 million casualties of stalingrad alone: Am I a joke to you?

[@TheBacknblack92]

For the clone wars multiply everything by 100x to 1000x in terms of troop and casualty numbers. They were really bad at creating realistic numbers for a galactic war. Like the GAR allegedly had 200k clone troopers with 1 million more on the way in the next 1-9 years. It makes no sense for a galactic war. 200 million clone troopers with a billion more on the way would at least be a bit more fiesable with millions dying for every planet

[@Lvl1.Sentry]

@@TheBacknblack92 I know right? A measly 3,000,000 clones for a GALACTIC WAR? (Nazi Germany ALONE numbered over 7,000,000 at the start of the war) Hell, even the 100,000,000 for the CIS are still too small.

[@internetstrangerstrangerofweb]

@@TheBacknblack92 er, considering that the process of cloning, growing from birth, and training for COMBAT tends to be VERY EXPENSIVE I’d say there’s a reason why the numbers were so conservative

The fuck does Stalingrad have to do with Star Wars?

[@tiagomonteiro130]

​​​@@huehuecoyotl.6938The fact that an entire Planet battle had less casualties then a city battle here on earth is unrealistic, by the casualtie numbers for Planet earth in wars like ww1 and ww2 you would expect clone casualties to have silimar numbers at least 7 million for an entire Planet not just thousands.

Gaming With Josh. The bombing started fire in the city that lasted for days. All buildings in the city were either damaged by the bombing or on fire. The smoke from the fire made the inner city unlivable. At least 25,000 people died likely more and the survivors all had the flee to the countryside. Considering city had no military factories or bases and was only a civilian city, the Allies did not a have a reason to bomb the city. The bombing caused avoidable and unnecessary civilian casualties that had no affect on the war and was a hideous war crime which should be condemned and remembered.

Really glad to see videos like this for your revisiting of "Battles that crippled the Republic" The graphics you made to explain the battle are really cool and you explained everything quite well. I now know an actual city name from Atraken, as well as a little more in specific about how the intricasies of the battle worked. By the way, 8:19 The image you used comes from a battle that (while I think it should've taken place on Atraken) took place on Nadiem, according to the comic its featured in. I still really like that you used it, I prefer the idea that it was Atraken too. Anyways, can't wait to see more continuations of "Battles that crippled the Republic"

I always enjoy your battle breakdowns. While I do love the Clone Wars 2008 TV series, I gotta admit I wish we saw some brutal battles like Atraken and Jybuim. All we really got was the very epic Battle of Umbara and maybe Mon Calamari, with how much it took the Republic to win that one. But I understand the three reasons why the writers did it: 1.) It was still a kid's show despite the darker elements so they still had limits. 2.) They didn't want to paint the Jedi and Clones as evil considering Clones like Rex, Echo, Fives and Jedi like Obi-Wan, Anakin, Ashoka were always seen as great heroes. And 3.) If the Republic didn't have all those wins than how could people fall for the lie they legitimately won the war, instead of winning because the Droids were shut down? However, considering how large the war was there were no doubtablely some dark shit going down someplace. For every Liberation of Ryloth, were the Jedi and Clones did a lot of good, there were just as many battles were Tarkin or even some Clones and Jedi went too far. Also, how about a video about the Battle of Mon Calamari from Clone Wars season 4 episodes 1 to 3?
