Here’s a what if idea. What if on the way to Palitine anakan felt a shift in the force that made him turned around and head back to the temple to evacuate the students and staff before order 66 was given

[@alexander.tahtadjian]

This was definitely a good idea. The 501st are some of the best clones ever, it was nice to see them make a stand like this help protect the Jedi.

[@hahnpark1037]

Even when standing against Anakin, their oldest friend and comrade, they still did the right thing and did EVERYTHING they could. Especially when they put him down. That's real courage as friends and soldiers.

[@nessasmyth8002]

I agree

[@seto_kaiba_]

Rex: "Its over General Skywalker, I have the real blast setting" Anakin: "You underestimate my power" Rex: "Don't try it..."

[@megaman37456]

One thing about this that doesn't work, Anakin killing members of the 501st. If it was any other Clone Legion, maybe, but Anakin wasn't fully mind controlled or even fully brainwashed until AFTER he killed the Separatist Leaders, meaning the Clones of the 501st could've talked him down.

[@nwjavahead]

Agreed

[@jadeimusprime2158]

Exactly

[@RichardHansbury]

If there was a group that Anakin would not have killed it would be clones, especially the 501st. They were his own and in the movie he treated them more as comrades than servants. Rex and others were his friends.

[@christianresel8051]

Yep, both Failnon and Legends anakin would NOT indiscriminatly kill his entire division. Especiel in Legends the 501st was his backbone in deathsquadron. The most important tasks where taken by them (althou back then it was more of an "it an order so we follow" not a stupid "this thing in my brain DICTATES that i do that" for them clones). More likely he would surrender as frelling rex would talk, then PUNCH sense into him again. Remember, anakin only fell because NO ONE supported him or talked to him other than palps during Knightfall.

[@noneyabidness9644]

Rex was a fantastic example of how to build a character. Despite LITERALLY being a clone character, they took their time, differentiated him from others exactly his equal, and showcased his loyalty, resolve and strength of character through many crossroads. What a master class in how to write characters.

[@noneyabidness9644]

Cody, fives, Foxx, were also well done (I hated Foxx, which is good, as his character was meant to be disagreeable. So, he was well written.) Clone wars was, if not *THE* best, one of the best pieces of media produced in the SWU. (Kotor is definitely its competition. I'd also include the force unleashed among its competition, but not quite to that level.)

[@FullGuns]

I believe another version of this story is possible. A version where the venator of Rex and Ashoka is used as an escape ship for the Jedi. With Maul still captured inside as it is not mentioned here, plus Anakin also captured by the 501st into the venator. Palpatine would ask to every clones legions to come back only to stop that ship, to rescue Anakin and kill Maul with all the jedi. Starting from that I think we can have a great story, every stakes of the galaxy depending if the venator manages to escape Coruscant or not, including an intervention of Yoda and Obi Wan, plus Padme’s crucial stake

[@splashnskillz37]

Yeah i prefer that

[@BlackSheepEntertainment9009]

It was on that day, the 501st died, and the 332nd emerged from the ashes.

[@9000jamez]

What if the Jedi allowed Knights and Masters to have families since knights and masters are usually well enough trained that they wont be disturbed by relationships.

[@christianresel8051]

You mean skipping the fall and moving straight to Luke and Kyle building a proper jedi order? Where there IS no lightside/darkside, but only the force as kyle put it in JA? Interesting thought, but not posible. That would need to change the whole personality of most council members (not all obviously). You also would need to take into account Mandalore of all things among other critical changes then.

[@masterwolf408]

What if there was a Clone civil war over order 66, the long standing veterans break free from the control of the chips while the rookies and those most loyal to Palpatine WILLINGLY chose to kill the Jedi. Starting a new war between the Galactic Empire and the Republic Remnant

Thats something few would be able to, jedi train YEARS to be able to conquer their feelings like that, and most of them still fail.

[@aaronquinn4557]

I have a questions what happened if Anakin had an inhibitor chip putting his head without him knowing and palpatine activated that? And this was a major reason that he started to change not just the dreams.

[@masterwolf408]

An interesting idea, but the main problem is that the inhibitor chips in the Clones were implanted at a early stages the chips could grow properly. Palpatine would had to have put one in when Anakin was a newborn. But a interesting idea for sure. Maybe more mind control or mind drugs?

[@Xyzima]

​@@masterwolf408no, the Inhibitor chip could be put in whenever, it was just easier for Kaminoans to put it in at an early stage so they didn't have to do surgery on every clone

Wouldn’t be any different than the actual cannon story. Whether it’s an inhibitor chip or dreams of padme dying, outcome is the same.

[@imonit4272]

It’s tough when your voice goes out. Wintertime plus the dry heat of a furnace can really tear your voice to shreds. Hot tea with honey, lots of water, a decent humidifier to moisturize the air and vocal rest are the best remedies. May the Force be with you…and your voice.

I hate this stupid fucking inhibitor chips that TCW insinuated. The Clones and Republic were much better fleshed out in the EU legends (superior canon) where the clones were loyal to the Republic and the Jedi were aware of Order 66 out of the many different contigency orders that the clones were taught, memorized and practically brainwashed to follow.

[@MCLegend13]

But that makes no sense because there’s zero explanation to why they turn from the free thinking heroes that saved many innocents from the Battle Droids to themselves becoming the very things they were meant to destroy. A thing built into their brains like the Chip that controls them and forces it against their wills makes more sense. So it’s not stupid you just clearly aren’t smart enough to see the brilliance.

[@KylePhantomK94]

@@MCLegend13 The clones were never meant to have individuality at least not the standard ones. Infact AOTC clearly states that clones were made to follow orders without question and were stripped of individual thought. In the Expanded Universe, the standard clone trooper that was bred were not free thinking, and were less individual than a normal human being. They were essentially brainwashed to follow the Republic at all costs, without questioning any orders whatsoever. Higher clone troopers like Arc Troopers and Commandos (clones that were bred) had less tampering and had more individual and free thought. Infact most of the clones that disobeyed Order 66 were Arc Troopers and Commandos. While the standard grunts were bred to follow the orders down to brim. Not to mention that there were other contingency orders besides Order 66 that the clones memorized and learned. Like many things in TCW and Disney Star Wars garbage.. The chip is a plothole and bad writing 101, first of all it makes the clones into literal mental handicaps after its triggered. And apparently it can get triggered from a tumor, injury to the head or just accidentally saying "66."

[@goingblargh]

One big issue with this is that the detachment of the 501st attacking the Temple didn’t have their inhibitor chips active, since, Y’know, having the clones blindly executing anyone perceived as a Jedi, _like Anakin Skywalker,_ would be counterproductive to Sideous’ plans.

[@brucejedilee5290]

Actually they were active but Sidious likely made sure to exclude Anakin or directly order them not to fire at him

I hope you get well soon and your voice returns (and not just so you could read more). This was a fantastic story! Anakin's death didn't seem targeted as in some stories (and I don't mean just yours, plenty of YT what if-ers), your lead up, the bodies of the slaughtered children, and knowing how talented he is, Rex and company, especially after the losses they took already, shouldn't take the chance. It felt like a natural progression. I tend to object to deaths of so and so, when it feels targeted, like well someone had to die, instead of a story plot point or progression. I felt with this one, I still got a happy ending, which I'm always grateful for. Thank you for this story and I really do hope you get well soon.
