The Clone Armorer's Guide to Every Piece of Gear Used in the Clone Wars

[@notsure134]

The random cuts to Kaminoans crotches are 100% appreciated, I was kinda lost until I saw that😂.

[@iamnuff1992]

Talking about trooper armour, I always wrote it off as useless but in hindsight the fact that it protects from secondry dangers like gases, temperature, ect alone is reason enough to wear it. Even completely discounting it as protection vs guns, it's still functionally a spacesuit. For an army designed to fight on many diffrent worlds, that's kind of mandatory.

[@perrywaaz3660]

Idk if clone armor does it, but storm trooper armor spread the impact out so it would work more like a stun bolt too. The Empire usually had enough troops to win the fight even if half of em got knocked out, but it's hard to send reinforcements all the way to the Outer Rim if a few die. That's why they always collapse. They usually weren't actually dead, just unconscious

You know, the blasteel shoulder pieces of the clone armor made me think of something. If you go back and watch season one of the clone wars, you can see the clones putting there shoulder into a blaster bolt fire during combat. Just a neat little detail I realized

[@robertagu5533]

Probably taught that THAT part of the armor was meant to be particularly armored at least temporarily to glancing or direct hits contrary to what was mostly narrated. Else doing that doesn't make much sense.

[@generalgrievous4267]

The line about how the flamethrower was used to clear out enemy emplacements and the committing of war crimes which was the republics favorite pastime , had me dying

Great vid! Suggestion tho, maybe start showing pictures of what you’re talking about ALL the time. For the most part you do in this vid, but it’s kinda weird seeing a random picture of a DL-44 when you’re just talking about the armor lol

[@Taron_HaiTar]

I agree! It bothers me much, like, I'd like to see the stuff that's talked about, not try to pull from memory (or imagine) by description!

I wonder how strong would a parachute need to be to support your average clone trooper given that the armor is heavy.

Considering a modern US paratrooper carries 60-120 pounds of kit what we use today would work for a clone.

[@spyrofrost9158]

What never made sense to me, is that if the Kaminoans were such expert cloners, you'd think they'd have intricate knowledge of how humans work down to the cellular structure. And with Jengo Fett and other mercenaries helping them design things, how on Kamino did the Phase 1 armor come out uncomfortable and painted in a spectrum that Kaminoans should very well be aware that humans can't see?

[@flaviomonteiro1414]

They focused on higher survivability and protection instead of comfort. Just like in the medieval times, while most armor was quite comfortable and allowed knights to mount and dismount without help, there was some armor that offered protection but was uncomfortable and bulky and was only used in tournaments (Justas) and while riding horses because they aim to protect the wearer for lance impacts and shrapnel.

[@brightlord-ov7cm]

Now combine their armor with Crysis 3 nano suit and you have a halo near-peer.

You forgot about a few things two variants of the Katarn class armor you did not talk about exist 1# Night Ops armor that used a special stealth alloy shielded the user against sensors and made them almost invisible to the naked eye. 2# ADSD Katarn armor which was designed for deep-space and aquatic infiltration, featuring a fully-pressurized suit with a greater oxygen supply. The DC-17m Sniper configurations sights at close range also had a x-ray type of effect. There is a third repeating blaster that the republic used the T-21 Light Repeating Blaster which actually was issued to clones in the war and the empire just retained it and switched the blaster gas on it to the same red bolts all their other weapons used. RPS-6 in addition to firing dumb-fire and homing missiles was able to fire incendiary missiles as well. And you forgot the republic AT-FRC Force Reconnaissance Walker.

[@jeremycolon7337]

Me: (After seeing the title and length) Oh this must be a compilation of all his previous videos discussing Clone Armor, Weapons, and Vechicals, so I don't have to watch the whole thing before commenting as I've already watched all those videos, so I'll just watch the first few minutes then skip to end before commenting something and then go watch the other stuff I need to. Me: (After the first few minutes) Okay this is a completely new video, which means I'll have to watch the whole thing before I comment. This is going to take a while. Me: (After finally getting through the whole video) Welp, I had to do a bunch of other stuff while watching this video, clean my ears, work on fanfics, eat dinner, and so on, but I finally got through it. It was incrediable, but a little too long. Now on to my actual comments: 9:17-9:23: Yeah, but that one danger has been responsabile for the death of 1/3 of all Star Wars characters, so I feel people should be more concerned with that giving how many people have died by getting shot by a blaster. The other 2/3 of deaths come from Lightsabers and explosions, with a small percentage being other forms of death such as falling, force chocking, blunt weapons, and so on. 16:09-16:13: So The Clone Advisor for Delta Squad wasn't the only one to still use Phase 1 armor by the time of the Battle of Kashyyyk. 40:25-40:28: A blaster that can take down most with a single shot, my argument that people should be more concerned with blaster technology is getting stronger. 56:15-56:20: What about Hardcase? Or was his a different type of gatling gun? 1:16:00-1:16:13: Oh that's cool and sweet. It's nice to see it's not just the Bad Batch and Omega that are attached to their IM-6. And it looks like me doing the same with my IM-6 OC in my The True Jedi Way fanfic was accurate to the franchise. 1:46:45-1:46:57: I knew the ones at Jaibbm were prototypes, but are you telling the ones seen in Jedi Fallen Order and the first two seasons of Star Wars Rebels were also just prototypes since the Galactic Civil War didn't offically start until season 3 of Rebels in 2 BBY and you said the proper AT-AT didn't premier until the Galactic Civil War?

57:05 166 rpm is very low especially for a mini gun, maybe it could of been 1660 is more realistic as the average smg is around 600-1200 rpm

[@raphaelmohr1965]

Big fan of this video and everything that's in it, nerding out and everything. But the whole time I was watching I kept thinking, "the reason they changed the armour for ROTS was to provide a visual transition to the stormtroopers eventually seen in the OT. The rest is creating retroactive meaning from a simple purposeful visual change." But hey, it's good lore so here I am with the popcorn.

[@robertagu5533]

Except it WASNT just a shock to the usual wide galaxy...just as planned the Sith themselves was the ONLY ones NOT surprised seeing as loke narrated it DID basically drop outta thin Space an air or might as well have how fast an exceptional Battle Army just not only appeared but won they're first battle or few. An proved to be quite deadly. Even against the WORST an deadliest creatures an fighters alike the Galaxy had ever made. Also noticed with things like the Katarn Class armor.. what they SERIOUSLY needed was a wide spread version of THAT to keep hella lot more Clones from being injured or KIA in battles that they MIGHTVE otherwise fought the CIS to a draw or stand still an maybe even long enough to turn around an win instead of lost.... Lil things like that tend to help make HUGE differences in massive important battles when multiplied bt numbers of exceptional trained an very well equipped forces

166 RPM seems really low. Looking at footage of the Z-6 in action seems to show a much higher rate of fire. I'd say it's closer to 960 RPM based on footage of Thorn's last stand, which places it closer to the ballpark of a real minigun.

With the tech ability in a civilization this seems actually plausible if not downright likely in the distant actual future of scifiish-reality warfare.

@@robertagu5533 i disagree. If it were splitting atoms it would be much faster to recharge and more powerful.
