I am highly worried about how much this man knows about our military.

THIS CHANNEL IS SO GOOD.

Episode idea in this series: How do Black Sun or the Hutt cartels compare to the organized crime orgs. on earth like the mafia or yakuza?

Allen: "The excellent novel; twilight..." Me: "WOAH, WOAH, WOAH!" Allen: "...company." Me: "Oh, oh, oh."

I will say this until the day that I die...... Rebel star fighters>Tie fighters Everything from Aesthetics to firepower, to cost effectiveness

I almost missed this because it wasn't in the "videos"-lineup. The rebellion seems a bit more interesting to me in terms of military than the Galactic Empire, though I suspect that the Sith doctrine did more to destroy the Empire than the Rebel Alliance on its own.

Really impressive video. I truly respect the use of the historical analogies, as they are not only accurate but also very apparent from the story told through the Original Trilogy and Rouge One.

I hope the clone wars faction are next. For the separatist alliance!

These videos are great! I don't think I've run into another channel that puts this much thought and research into their Star Wars videos.

Thanks for shouting out my boy Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain. Absolute legend of the Civil War

Could you please make a video about the separatist alliance in the future? Edit:Thank you

I liked Rogue One (the most of any major Star Wars film, actually) for that exact reason: It came about as close as a movie could to the actual functions, tactics, and results of the Rebellion. Nothing quite like a group of smugglers, spies, murderers, and well, t-words, banding together in a suicidal attempt to steal plans for what would become a giant planet killer.

Do a How does the Old Republic military (KOTOR,SWTOR) work?

Empire building challenge Guidelines 1. You are the head of this Empire. 2. Choose your capital. 3. Chose one Supreme Commander for your military. 4.

I love all of the videos from Generation Tech ! Thank you for all the hard work that goes into the production of these vids. Please keep them coming.

if you read the rebel alliances declaration of action, it was written similarly to continental American militia declaration of arms against Great Britain.

You made me obbsed with star wars now.. Not that im complaining i grew up with it.

thats really where the empire lost, tarkins doctrine of fear. while it fits the sith well i dont understand why a stunningly competent politician like sidious ever followed it.

You know that whole keeping the ideology of the Alliance in tact versus simply destroying as much of the Imperial war machine was on perfect display Monday with the Rebels episodes that formed In the Name of the Rebellion. Mon Mothma has a clear ideology that she wants to protect in order to gain the trust of the planets they're hoping to liberate from the Empire and bring into the overall rebellion, which is why a lot of her tactics involve carefully planned out missions and a lot of diplomacy. On the other hand, Saw's overall philosophy and tactics revolve around get intel about the Empire, get to the location in that intel, and blow the hell out of whatever Imperial base or ship is there without regards to the local population. His tactic I'm seeing, thanks to Rebels, is one that will drive more worlds to readily accept the rule of the Empire if the population on that planet believes the Empire will keep them safe from the extremists of the Partisans and the Rebel Alliance. Yes, you want to have gains against the Empire but those gains should not come at the cost of the trust you want the people of the galaxy to have in you and your cause. That's what I think is the major overall theme of the period between episode III and Rogue One when the rebellion was going from small individual cells fighting to free individual planets into a unified and cohesive paramilitary group.

Please do a video on every canon weapon of the Rebel Alliance. (Pick sources wisely)

The rebellion is supported corporations that hates the “Empire” nationalization programs ( referenced in Star Wars rebels). Plus many factions of the empire post Endor became parliamentary democracies like the imperial council in the Kir Kanos comics or Gilad Palleons faction. Not to mention Vader hated the idea of slavery from his ptsd of being one!

Yessss, I was hoping for this so much!

Mad props for the Republic Commando poster. Also, this video was uploaded on the anniversary of the Battle off Samar. Look it up, folks

Great video 👍🏻

What about a video about Rebel ground armored fighting vehicles? Few to none appear in the movies but they are shown in other media.

Lol at 6:00 we saw you reading off a phone. Idc it’s just cool

First thing I did was watch this vid. Love your content

The Galactic Republic next please.

That form forbid traders to suplie the rebels is how the duth kept trading with the Americans

One reason that has held me back liking the Rebel Alliance has been the fact that they lack a dedicated ground force. They have small strike squads but no large battalions for taking a holding planets. They really rely heavily on winning over a planets population to hold said planet (think of SW Rebels and how they spent many years whittling down Lothals imperial presence then winning over the population pushing the empire out) I get why this is The rebels are supposed to be a paramilitary group that uses guerilla war tactics so a large army doesn't fit that idea. But I think there is a way to find a middle group. The answer is Private Military Corporation. Basically the idea that a PMC group that operated during the clone wars and early imperial days that is similar in size to a Clone Legion or Battle Group. That the Rebel Alliance hires out to conduct the large ground battles that the Rebels need conducted. These individuals could also train Rebel soldiers as well. This could basically add a professional army for the Rebels without it contradicting the strategy of the Rebels. Also this can fix one problem with the New Republic in Canon which is the fact that as soon as the empire lost power the New Republic demilitarized leaving only 1 naval fleet and a large number of Star Fighter pilots to keep the Republic in check. This mentality of doing this makes no sense after the end of a galaxy wide Civil War. But it can be justified more if there was a Private Army that was friendly with the New Republic that the New Republic could just throw money at when they are needed to fight the battles that need to be fought.

Magnificent video! Very informative and well done.

I know everyone is asking for it in the comments and it is was probably already planned as the next video but I would love to learn about the ins and outs of the Separatists

Hmm... In Star Wars: Empire at War, the Rebel campaign details that the Rebellion "acquired" their original X-wing fighters after a tip-off from an Imperial officer or something of that ilk. Can somebody confirm if this is/was indeed canon?

I love that your getting the subscribers you deserve now

Hey Generation Tech in the last video you said you like stories with background information. Try STARFIST! Marines in the 25th century. I found it a great read with tons of background info you might like.

It's not hard to see how much WW2 was an influence with Star Wars.

Really nice tie-in with the coalition against Assad and Daesh.

I've got a video series you could do: the rebel fleet are trying to find a planet to land and hide from the Empire. They go to earth (Soul 3 I couldn't remember the name you gave it) after a couple of days on soul 3 the empire finds them. If you could do this in a video series that would be awsome

Awesome Video!!!

Thanks for doing this! You guys are great at this keep it up! For Mandalore!

Love your stuff!! I would love to see a video on Star Wars books, what to read and where to start. I really only the know the movies and some loose legends.

@0:36 I know this is a joke but the soilders name was Stordan Tonc

One thing that was understood during WWII but forgotten during the Vietnam War was the importance of propaganda and how it is used. It is vital that you remind people of why you are fighting and what your goals are, otherwise moral is going to plummet and people are going to wonder what the point of fighting is. In the case of the Rebel Alliance propaganda would be very important in terms of what is done. If the majority of people are willing to live with the Empire then you would have to exploit the terroristic act it commits against its people and throw it against the Empire. As the empire becomes more ruthless in their acts and the more the Rebel Alliances win battles people will start to support the Rebels. However, as stated here they have to be very selective of their targets, making sure not to hit civilian targets but Imperial ones only.

Allies through most of the war was the upper dog in the fight. They had better armored tanks weaponry and more equipment. The Germans was strong on a tactical lvl. As we saw in the battle of France where they crushed the seperior Allied force. The Rebels are more Afgani Rebels in the Afgan-Soviet War.

You guys are amazing

Great series!

Could you do a video on How the Grand Army of the Republic Works?

CIS next!

Good video

I was expecting a Rebel Yell at the end of the Declaration of Rebellion.

Winning The Peace has always been tougher than Winning The War.

Can you make a video explaining the difference between the Rebel Alliance and the Resistance? I need some convincing that the Resistance isn't just Rebel Alliance 2.0

Join the Rebellion today! ✴ We, the Rebel Alliance, do therefore in the name-and by the authority-of the free beings of the Galaxy, solemnly publish and declare our intentions: To fight and oppose you and your forces, by any and all means at our disposal; To refuse any Imperial law contrary to the rights of free beings; To bring about your destruction and the destruction of the Galactic Empire; To make forever free all beings in the galaxy. To these ends, we pledge our property, our honor, and our lives. Who will join us?

Rogue 1 made STAR WARS land look like a shitty place to live unlike A NEW HOPE that looked...fun. Thanks again for the looking into the details

Good.

I can't imagine that the Alliance drew their personnel solely from volunteers

2:31 That is a moustache worth seeing

What about the Resistance from the Star Wars sequel?

How Does the Galactic republic Military Work?

This video has the high ground

You guys almost have 200k subs!

Just awesome

Hey Alan and Generation Tech, love Chamberlain but a better ww2 soldier would be Major Winters from the 506th PIR 101st ABD

Inferno squad book is good

Aye I love getteusyburg it’s such a great movie with good characters.

Die? Like one rebel die a fkcing half empire dies..

0:56 Damn JFK back at it again

I see that Republic Commando poster...

Do Saws partisans please!

5:39 What fighters? Snuff fighters?

How do the Zann Consortium or The Black Sun combat arms compare?

Think you guys could do a spieces vs souecies series? For an example, Ewoks vs Jawas.... Nor that you got all the laughing out of your system remember Ewoks were throwing head sized holders over their heads at imperial troopers and had managed to booby trap the area around the shield generator, that an apparently Stone Age species has come up with working glider technology sting enough to carry an Ewok and a payload of large fist sized rocks. The Jawas on the other hand learned how to operate sandcrawers, made tech capable of sending an energy volt capable of safely deactivating a droid and were perfectly adapted to their harsh environment.

Were you trying to channel your inner JFK when reading their declaration of rebellion? Pretty awesome video as usual 😁

Eh, I'm not too keen on the real life comparison at the end. If the Galactic Civil War more resembled the war in Syria, and the Assad regime was the empire, the Rebellion was essentially be more like a leaderless cluster of factions that fight each other constantly, as they all posses their own goals. Eventually, one such faction, let's for example use the Dreamers, would become so powerful and destructive, the various factions and the Empire regime would band together to take out the Dreamers, the Empire being propped up and aided by the Yuuzhang Vong or something. And if the comparison was apt, the Empire wins at the end.

Can you make a video on the military structure of the yuuzon vong (sorry if I spelled it wrong)

This channel has good content but I can't help but notice how Alan's shirt gets lower in the front in every video

I am Generation Tech!!

That JFK impression made my day. :)

Actually, his name was Micha Evon.

What was Luke skywalker talking about to uncle Owen about joining the academy?

So, I've been having a slight problem. The last 6 episodes of your show have been dark. I don't mean just lighting dark, I mean black screen. But It's only your vidoes. Any other KZfaq video shows up. Any ideas?

They're basically Al Qaeda of the Star Wars universe.

0:39 - L O L 1:36 - holy crap.. i never thought of this... CIS would have joined the rebellion because they saw the Empire as the next version of the Republic...

come now.. let's be honest at the end the Rebellion NB could and did take on and beat Star Destroyers and Imperial Armies. That's how they won critical battles like Jakku. At times plenty of Imperials brought their ships and/or supplies with them when defecting. But I digress it couldn't hurt the Rebels to try and take and hold a ship yard or two and develop the contacts and means to fund and build up a sizable army and navy early on but that's just me.. Maybe they'd not suffered so bad if they ACTUALLY did take time to set up the strengths needed in anticipation of large scale brutal battles.

Which declaration of independence?

If you want to find out join my discord server. I just made a Star Wars battlefront II Rebel Alliance MilSim If you want to join let me know

How the transition from the rebellion to the new republic

Can you do Republic too

More importantly, why does the dude in the thumbnail look like Alex Ovetckin?

What if the rouge one crew survived scarif

Music is way too loud.

@6:30 Hell yeah long live the YPG/YPJ

Old republic military please

Was the accent of the rebel leader reading the declaration of war supposed to be southern or a Kennedy Massachusetts guy ?

6:06 the rebels were inspired by the viet cong and the empire by the yanks... I think that the communist bloc is a good analogy for the rebels. They were different, but united under the goal of crating full communism.

Do the Resistance
