      Sadly I don’t think they’re smart enough to do that. It seems like they’ve completely halted the flow of Star Wars games. So now instead of the market being flooded with lots of Star Wars games and few movie, we has tons of movies and the only one legally allowed to make a Star Wars games is EA 🤢

      It's a relatively small but impactful change that people will probably put into their own head-canon.
      I would think it could be a similar situation to the bearded rebel in ROTJ that many people have decided to consider as Rex from the 501st.

    • @chewy99.
      @chewy99. Před rokem +62

      It wouldn’t be a retcon, we don’t know who initially trained them. Adding new information isn’t a retcon. Not unless it changes something or conflicts against it. There are almost no retcons in canon Star Wars. A handful, and even then some can be explained without it being a retcon.

      Nah that’s still Nik Sant. Everyone’s not on board with the constant ret-cons and inserting named characters into all conflicts. Even notable warriors in our history couldn’t be at every major battle.
      Edit: I mean think about it this way, if you and I were just two regular Stormtroopers who work hard to be good soldiers and we survive the entire war just to have a group of like four or five people run through us like butter and they've done that like every major battle no problem. Oh and there's multiple groups like this.

    Interesting thing about this group was that they debuted before the bad batch Clone Wars season 7 episode officially aired. Originally this taskforce 99 was recycling the concept from the original scrapped/unfinished bad batch episode. I think the implication was either that this WAS the Bad Batch after order 66 (made in a time before deciding to have them betray the empire) or something of the sort.

    I still want to see a storm trooper show maybe happen in the future, see their side of the war with the rebels because a lot of the recruits actually believed the empire was a good thing when it first started out and to be fairly honest it was dealing with the slave trade, smuggling, and other illegal issues the republic didn’t do as much with and focused more on the war against the droids.

    That template that you mentioned has a parallel in Warhammer 40K, the “Kill Teams”. It used to refer to a specific unit used by the (40K, and thus original) Deathwatch, among other Space Marine Chapters, for specific skirmish missions, and has now become a variant of the regular tabletop game, called, well, Kill Team. Kill Teams now have a “team” from each separate faction from the 40K universe and they are pitted against one another in smaller and less time consuming battles. So there are Ork, Adeptus Mechanicus, T’au, Eldar, Imperial Guard, and of course, Space Marine Kill Teams, all composed of similar units from the opposing factions, such as each team having a sergeant, a sniper, a heavy weapons expert, a melee specialist, a medic (called an Apothecary in the Marines), a zealot or chaplain, etc. It supposedly makes for more even matches between factions. Sorry for the really long comment, but I tried to be thorough while being as clear and concise as possible. Thanks for the video, mate!
