Grand Army of the Republic: Minimum causalities, maximum damage Average Imperial Guard: Maximum causalities, maximum damage (with bayonets) Death Korps of Krieg: 100% casualties, war crimes

Guardsmen: "We're surrounded!" Captain: "Good! We can fire in all directions!"

Both: "For the Emperor! Guardsmen: wait, what? Your emperor is an evil sith space wizard! Stormtrooper: evil? Your emperor is a literal God that a thousand souls are sacrificed everyday! Guard: So? Trooper: so... Both: "for the emperor!"

Clone: we haven't taken losses like this since geonosis! Guardsman: we haven't taken losses like this since tuesday. Let's be honest... one of these factions is going to look at the casualties of this battle and call it acceptable.

And somewhere out in the far … far reaches of space… there is a space marine… screaming at the top of his lungs “IT IS THE BANEBLLLAAADDEEE” and an imperial general still wondering where the hell his 100 baneblades are

Commissar: “They’ve got us surrounded. The poor bastards.”

501st: we just wiped a thousand man and armoured column this would surely put a wrench in their plans. Commisar: i just remembered, what happened to that patrol we sent out?

“Isnt that an obvious trap?” Nah the Emperor protects

Imperial guard with 95% casualties: "*Ah yes, V I C T O R Y.*"

when you ambush your enemies but somehow suffer more casualties then the ones getting ambushed you know you've done fucked up

The moment I saw the Baneblade rolling in, I knew the end result. Solid action!

"We have more troops than you have ammo" - Imperial Guards

As the Imperium Crusade on the Star Wars galaxy rages on, the Imperial forces who landed on Tatooine, discovered a hidden Republic stronghold has been spotted deep inside of a canyon. The base appears to be abandoned, but Imperial commanders are taking no chances. They have deployed an armored column to seize the base, but the crafty Clone Troopers of the 501st Legion under General Anakin Skywalker have prepared a nasty surprise for the invaders. Despite their white and blue colors, the Clones managed to keep themselves hidden from the Guardsmen who are marching in tight formation with their column of Leman Russes and a Basilisk. The Imperials approached the destroyed tank and discovers live explosives attached to it before they are consumed in a huge explosion, shocking their comrades. Beginning the ambush, the Clone Troopers opened fire on the Imperial forces with rocket launchers and heavy blaster fire. Taking casualties, the Guardsmen returned fire and fought back against their enemies in all direction, killing scores of Clones from the High Ground they are on. The Guardsmen took cover behind the Leman Russes and covered each other's back as they and the vehicles unleashed hell upon the 501st Legion soldiers who started losing more of their brothers despite having the High Ground and the element of surprise on their side. However, the 501st Legion ambushers received reinforcements as they advanced upon the Imperials in front of them and opened fire immediately. However, the Imperials fought back and held their ground despite being pressured by the Clones' three way ambush. Regardless however, the Guardsmen requested for Heavy Armor and he received confirmation that they will arrive within 4 minutes. Now the Imperials will have to hold the line for 4 minutes and survive until backup shows up. Even with the loss of their brothers and sisters in arms, they continue to fight on for the Emperor of Mankind on a galaxy far far away that they are going to conquer, claim and colonize for the Imperium, and they will persevere and prevail no matter what. The Clones pressed on the offensive against the Imperials but they are quickly shot down in droves. The Imperials are reminded too much of the Death Korps of Krieg after knowing with disgust that the Clones are an army of mass-produced humans whose only purpose is to fight for a cowardly Republic that refuses to commit its own citizens, the vile xenos and the traitorous humans, to defend it from their righteous Crusade. The 501st Legion receives two TX-130 Saber-class Fighter Tanks from the Republic base and they assaulted the besieged Imperial forces, destroying another Leman Russ. While the remnants of the ambush unit kept up their attack but are all wiped out like the Clone Trooper with a Z-6 Rotary Blaster Cannon did before he was shot down by lasgun fire. The Clones took cover fighting the TX-130s and with more reinforcements pouring out from the Republic base, advanced upon the Imperials who are losing more men and ground. The Imperials and Clones kept on exchanging fire at each other and lost many comrades. But the tide turns against the 501st Legion as the Imperial forces received backup of new Guardsmen forces arriving to aid them and push back the Clone Troopers. The TX-130s opened fire on them and scored a dozen kills before they are overwhelmed and destroyed. The Guardsmen pressed forward towards the Republic base where the Clone Troopers readied themselves against their charge, and engaged them. Despite their heavy barrage, the Imperials are advancing and never stopping at all, finally reaching the entrance of the Republic base and attacked the Clones trying to defend it. Now the Clones are suffering the taste of their own medicine and their ambush on the Imperials have failed miserably. To make things worse for the 501st Legion who are trying to hold back their enemies' attack on their base, a Baneblade appears after 4 minutes of arrival is up to back up the Imperials and fired one powerful shot that decimated the Clones, leaving a huge crater and piles of gore and blood behind. The 501st Legion desperately attempts one last charge on the Imperials as they ran towards them guns blazing on them and bring as many Guardsmen down with them. It was all in vain in the end, and they are completely wiped out to the last Clone, resulting in Imperial Guard tactical victory. With the defeat of the 501st Legion and failure of an ambush, General Anakin Skywalker is forced to order what's left of his men to retreat and escape from the Republic base that is already lost. At best, they will have to resort to guerrilla warfare until the Grand Army of the Republic relieves them with any kind of reinforcements despite Kamino is too busy trying to mass produce more Clones and the Senate is debating whether or not they should conscript Republic citizens into the military. While Anakin Skywalker has no love for Tatooine where he was once a slave in the past, the people who live on this planet do not deserve to go through the atrocities done by the Imperium who have occupied and decimated worlds of its populations before converting them as their own territories.

"The 501st never runs" Now would be a good time to learn how

“It is been said the 501st got the best in the war, we also got the worst.” - 501st journal

Storm Trooper: "This armor doesn't protect you from anything!" Imperial Guardsman: "Ah, you noticed. XD"

I think the part where like a hundreds clone troopers rush is not too clone-ish, they have lesser numbers so they behave like it, they’d have stood back and fire within their positions, not rush. The imperial guard on the other side WOULD have done that, as they are always suicidal.

A complete victory with minimal losses to the guardsmen! Though there will be heads rolling for the loss of valuable leman russ tanks and the chimeras and the Basilisk!

Clone troopers: We have 6 million clones ready to die for the republic! Imperial Guard: "Looks at the Trillion of souls ready to die for the Emperor" Haha, *thats cute*

Love the idea of the Republic putting up a good fight, but losing the war of attrition due to the abysmal zealotry of the Imperium.

I would say that this is playing along with the imperium: 1) the clones that set up the ambush are practically devoid of heavy anti-tank weapons, although they were clearly going to attack the squad with armored vehicles. 2) when the attack starts, the first and last vehicles in the convoy are destroyed first, which does not allow the rest of the vehicles to maneuver. Clones don't do this. 3) soldiers with rifles and machine guns should only attack enemy infantry, not vehicles that cannot be harmed. 4) if an ambush is planned, then a direct attack from the clone base should have started as soon as the shooting began. That is, as soon as the bomb exploded, then simultaneously with the shooting of the soldiers on the hill, the main forces of the clones should have attacked. 5) As far as I understand, clones are attacking a separate detachment of the enemy. Reinforcements for the Imperium will arrive after the timer expires. Then where did the guardsmen come from, superior to the original detachment? 6) it looks like the clones from this mod do not have a weapon capable of damaging Baneblade. That is, it was possible to simply release this tank with the same result. 7) why do clones keep attacking imperial troops instead of retreating to a base that has cover?

Love the Guardsmen vs as the Astartes usually just decimate the opposition with ease. The Guardsmen always have a good pitched battle.

To put into perspective, there were about 200,000 clones in the clone army active at any point. There are estimated to be trillions of imperial guard. While the clones would probably win 1v1 or maybe even 2v1. They can’t win 200v1. In the siege of Vraks alone over 14 million imperial guard died.

CloneCommander: Give up, we have the high ground! ImperialCommissar: You underestimate my power..

IT IS THE BANEBLADE! I love how you can see with each episode that it is improving, new angles, new ideas. keep it up !

Finally, guardsman fighting an enemy who’s gun cant one-shot their armor!

Damn! Even when the clones get the drop on the Imperium and have first blood. They still loose and get slaughtered. I'm starting to think this guy just does not want to give those clones a win. Not even once.

Fix Bayonet Guardmens, Charge A single guardmen charging straight to a TX-130 Saber tank of the republic with his trusty lasgun and his bayonet attached, the first. stab make the saber tank explode, truly the finest weapon of the Emperium of man AVE IMPERATOR PRAISE TO THE GOD EMPEROR

The space Marines are the Spearhead of the Imperium The Guard is the Sledgehammer

I loved the huge wave of Las fire towards the end

Imperial Guardsman: (looks up) hey, it just me or are those a bunch of shiny plastic helmets on top a' those rocks?

clones: exist baneblade: "so you have chosen death"

okay, i'm gonna call BS on that one as nice as the map was the situation should have been a forgone conclusion. the Imperial Guards' position was really bad, a very easily defended and blocked line of advance, and they should have been slaughtered. instead, the clones just charge out of thief PERFECTLY GOOD fortress for no reason and get slaughtered. furthermore, there was no artillery on that fortress, not even a basic mortar, and they repeatedly ignored those chimeras that were causing most of the casualties.

It doesn’t matter how many soldiers you have. The Imperium of Man will *always* have more.

digging the first person shots, really changes it up!

To be fully fair, while the Star Wars universe has a chance to win a smaller surprise battle against the Imperial Guard, on a planetary scale unless they somehow outnumber the entire Imperial Guard and the Empire can't send in reinforcements, they can't win. On a galactic scale though, it's literally impossible to compare Warhammer 40k to any other sci-fi universe, considering how crazy strong some factions are.

8:00 "i have to take cover" proceed to run out in the open

man some Y-wings coming in to carpet bombing that vallet would end that fast.

Imperial Guard: Just another Monday.

This makes sense. The clone army is having trouble with frontal assault wins so they'd change up tactics. Clone wars is full of clones who used a variety of tactics.

Really enjoyed it! Only one recommendation squad composition. Would like to see more specialist units in the battles. Things like missile launchers and z-6 blasters were great, but just disappeared towards the end. Imperial guard plasma guns would also be good. Very thematic!

In the immortal words of Rogal Dorn... 'YEEEEEEEESSSSSSS'

You wouldn't begin to fathom how much joy I felt seeing those red streaks take down those clones But that baneblade showing up was euphoric

Honestly from a lore perspective, Clone’s would put up a good fight but are limited, Guardsmen have probably more powerful weapons compared to any Republic weapons and the Guardsmen are basically endless, so in the end, the Imperium would probably win if it was an all out war against each other Hell i’m a Clone fan saying this lol

IT IS THE BANEBLADE!

To VxV Tactics: I find this a bit inaccurate, if the clones knew the Guardsmen would have brought tanks they would have used rocket launchers to destroy the tanks, after detonating their trap. Plus, all clones are issued detonator grenades as seen from the clone wars series. The clones posses superior military tactics & tech compared to the Imperium's Guardsmen units considering that the Imperium uses ineffective soviet based military tactics, aside from their zealotry dedicated to worshipping an undead corpse.

Today was a sad day for the Boys in Blue... Remember the 501st Legion. Vader's Fist!

The TX 130 is a very versatile Tank, I don't think its done enough Justice

I am wondering though... What does the Clone army have that's at least equal to a Baneblade? Do they even have anything like it or we're those two tanks all they had?

When it comes to the Hammer of the Emperor… you make sure that you gut them quickly, else they will make you bleed. For each one who falls, ten more will take their place.

Hey this was a great cinematic battle, I'm happy that I found your channel. Also this was the best ad implementation I've seen in a cinematic battle channel it was just really funny and smart 😀Keep up the great work! ✌

Clone trooper: For the republic! but wait we don't have tanks. Imperium: For the empire. Clone trooper: For the republic. Imperium: For the empire. Clone trooper: For the republic.

Am doing my own very creative book called Space Wars of the Universes. It's similar to Starwars Legends, Metroid prime , Halo 2, World of the Worlds, The Flash, Star Trek , and alittle of Warhammer 40k in it. Though this Space Wars of the Universes is also very unqiue and very well creative. You can call it the Ultra Universes of the Infinate Cycle. Some Information about it It's main view is Diplomacy, and Democracy. It's well balanced of the Light Side and the Dark side. Name a few things the SWUU has in it It's going to have Hover Titans, Carrier Titans, Destoyer Titans, Support Titans, Frigate Titans, Dreadnaught Titans, and Superweapon Titans. Theirs also many categories of Infantry, vehicles of Under ground , Ground, Air, and Space. Ships, Starships, Space ships Theirs also Anti Rings, Rings, Life Charity, Death Charity, Low Charity, The Life Star , and other things Theirs also the Little Insect/bug destoyers that can destroy Light, Medium and heavy things like Infantry, Shields, Vehicles, Fighters, Helicopters, Jets, Interceptors, InterceptorJets, ships, Star ships, Space ships, Titans, Moons, Planets, Stars, Solar systems, Clusters, Nebulas, Worm Holes, Black Holes, Galaxies, and Dark This Space Wars of the Ultra Universes also called- ( SWUU ) also going to have all the Matter Categories , and all the Anti Matter Catagories. Theirs the infinate Light Outer Space where its Hot instead of Cold. Light Outer Space is White instead of Black. Theirs White Holes, Light Anti Energy, Light Anti Matter, Anti Matter, Hole worms, Anti Clusters, Anti Nebulas, Anti Stars - are Cold instead of Hot, Theirs Anti Gravity, Anti Planets, Anti Moons, Anti Asteroids, Anti Comets, Anti Atoms, Anti Particles, Anti Quarks, Anti Organisms, Anti Elements, and many other things. Am also going to be upgrading the Starwars Legends , Metroid Prime and 2, and Halo 2 Universes to make it where their even more powerful.

Guardsman: "how many troops you have?" "dunno, 3 millions i think" - -"no seriously" - "as i said" -"lol, there are literally bllions of guardsmans, good luck"

Maybe this will tide me over for when AFanWithTooMuchTime finally finishes his season 1 of Star Wars vs 40K fan fic.

Clone:Were Taking Too Much Fire !!!! Guardsman:Heh They Call Us Wall Of Guns For A Reason.

Clone Troopers: Brother I have been shot, get me away! Imperial Guardsmen: Brother I have been shot, get me a gun!

Great video! Even the ad was well done. I'm glad to see the Republic actually had a pretty good advantage at the beginning, but unfortunately for them, the Imperium broke through the ambush.. It would be nice to see the Republic actually win a battle for once, as they seem to be losing this war on all fronts and can't possibly keep up with the losses at this rate.

*Ofcourse the Guard won, Cadia broke before the Guard did, not even the 501 can stand agaisnt the Imperium!!*

Wow even when ambushing, the Clones get massacred. I'm a 40k fan but I'm hoping Star Wars wins one at some point.

The return of the king ! Huh, I mean the Emperor !

um just a thing VxV Tactics: blaster rifles especially the dc 15a long rifles the clones have have something like an effective range of 10km so if a clone can see a guardsmen they can hit the guardsmen

As usual, clones get a few vehicles and mostly troops while the guardsmen get a baneblade and leman russ tanks and basilisks and you really had to do the clones dirty by rushing them out like that to get them slaughtered? Like really come on. It's not a battle it's a slaughter every time. Great video but man it's so one sided every time.

Imperial Guardsman *uses dead squadmate as cover* man it really was nice of the Republic to provide us with cover

Okay, where's that guy who types out a wall of text of lore?

Who sets up a roadblock and then throws endless waves of infantry at it to the front? They were defending a position, why did they need to move up?! I do like seeing combat between these two different factions, but I'd like to see some reasonable tactics in play. With tactics like this, it does not matter how well equipped either side is because it will just be a meat grinder

First 3 minutes are just a normal monday for the Guard :)

Ah, about time we got another SW vs 40K vid. Very nice.

Ya nothing in star wars can down a baneblade outside a orbital strike

Even though I love Star Wars so much, the moment I saw this, I immediately switch side to the Imperium of Man. THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!! FOR THE EMPEROR!!!

The Emperor protects

I appreciate the effort you put into making the ad have something to do with the lore.

That convoy at the start makes me very, very happy. Good job getting that to work.

I love these videos, but honestly it feels one sided against the clones almost every time Nobody dies more heroically than a clone, but still it feels hard to watch sometimes when the outcome is predetermined for every battle posted Love the videos and I hope they keep coming, these are just my own thoughts on it, it would be nice to see clones acting like clones and not storm troopers

I enjoyed watching the video seeing this in action. But I am sorely disappointed that you did not give any 'real' heavy armor to the 501st for an ambush using ATTEs or cannons. Which in lore as well as the series they use extensively for these such things. I mean you gave the guard a lot of them as well as a super tank at the very end. While the clones simply had at best could be TX-130s, if what I saw was correct, which classify as a medium tank at best depending on POV. Curious as to what the next one is going to be though. What do you all think?

Praise to the Omnissiah! I will beseech the machine spirit.

This has probably already been said but... this is the most intense laser tag game I've ever seen

Ok I like the action and the videos, if I sound like I’m nitpicking it’s because I’m both a Star Wars and warhammer fan, and I’m sure the warhammer mod allows warhammer units to do more damage. 1 why where the clones not in cover. 2 where were the L.A.A.Ts, Y wings, And AT-TEs. 3 why where the clones charging at the guardsmen toward the end. 4 and why did the clones not bring more rocket launchers. I know warhammer is beatable you just have to use the tactics of the faction you put them up against, if ever video end with a tactical victory for warhammer what’s the point of watching till the end if we already know the outcome.

That was great, i like the incorporation of the first and 3rd person view as well. You've improve in these videos quite a lot. I hope that there is a way moders can add melee animations or custom troops cuss i would love to see some dark troopers and legends era stuff as well. either way love the work and thank you for the videos man

7:13 When you need to regroup but commissar stay behind you

“Push back these scum and their republic! For the emperor!”

It should be tallarn desert raiders vs clone trooper

One cannot simply just inflict casualty on imperial guards and think victory is assured. Unless the Clones can do more than just, killing soldiers and tank, it will always end in Imperial victory.

I have a worrying dread that chaos is lurking in the distance waiting to tear the galaxy a new one

The emperor's blessing befalls those who die in glorious combat!

I was expecting the remaining vehicles to hold the line until the heavy reinforcement arrive but having a new group of guardmen came and they were enough to turn the tide really made the countdown and the arrival kind of underwhelming.

"Glory to the first man to die" - missing cominsar

I was laughing my arse off at the way you framed the sponsorship segment. Very nice.

I have yet to find a battle where clones use their supposedly extremely advanced military training to engage their ennemy with maximal efficiency and minimal casualties. If you guys were just going to charge in the open against armored units it wasn't worth spending so much republic credits. Cheap droids would have done the job.

3:24 Never seen The IG with Autoguns before, guess someone figured out Clone armor won't stop rifle bullets and did something smart for once. On the other hand even Guardsmen Flak Armor is resistant to standard issue rounds, though Armor Piercing Rounds (confusingly termed "Manstoppers") will punch right through that plate.

Awesomeness

Love these cinematics bro, thanks and keep up the good work

The clones were lucky it was just the imperial guard. If the death korps of krieg were against them, their death would have been way more painful.

Chimera side gunners got an excellent firing range experience But why did basilisks didn't fire a single shot? They had the ability to do so, lack of hydras is also weird

Still waiting on that Star Wars victory. But it’s still a great video as always man, 10/10. 1 problem I have noticed though is it seems blasters have far less range than those lasguns. Towards the end the IG basically shot with impunity at the in cover clones.

Khorne appreciates the sacrifice and requires more.

FOR THE EMPEROR!!!

What happens if you replace the Clone Trooper ambushers with ICOG child soldiers from Xeelee Sequence?
