''There's no way they could get a message through'' This just fits so well with the rebels' inability to send the death star's plans to the fleet above.
Well... in the battle they were under friendly artillery fire and the only way how to stop it were homing pigeons. only the second made it trough. then it was in essence first desperate attempt ever to airdrop some munition to them as relief force was send to get them out. It managed to save only small fraction of the battalion. Most were killed or captured when they ran out of ammo.
Scarrif, the sounds of sight of that battle still haunt me to this day, THE SICKENING SMELL OF A LIGHTSABRE BURNING THROUGH HUMAN FLESH. the screams of the imperial garrison as they were annihilated by their own commanders.
What if there were able to in a different time line the rebels running on the beach would be them running to EVAC while u wing fire support is to cover the enemy so rebels can get on while x wing’s suppressive the death troopers when the Death Star arrives everybody will hate tarkin because there were no rebel threats on the planet making him get fired changing the hole universe
Stormtrooper’s lives are cheap, but their sacrifices mean little, and sometimes are solely to fuel a personal agenda of some Moff. Rebels can’t afford casualties... but make every last one count.
Rogue One, it was an incredible movie. I liked how it made you realize just how hard it is to fight the Empire. Plus it also adds a bit of history to Rogue Squadron, it's a homage to a small group of brave Rebel fighters who made it possible to destroy the Death Star and give hope to the Galaxy. Plus it also adds weight to the statement in a New Hope where an Imperial Admiral says "Until the Death Star is fully operational we are vulnerable, the Rebel Alliance is too well equipped." Now we know why, a flight of Y-Wings using "Ion Torpedoes" which is likely just their Ion Cannons can disable an ISD in short order.
Lyrics (Star Wars version): Far from their land as they made their stand They stood strong and the legend still lives on At dawn of hope against the Sith A battalion is lost down on Scarif Under fire there's nothing they can do There's no way, they can get the blueprints through Suffer heavy losses as the battle carries on Rogue One detachment standing strong Far from their land as they made their stand A disregarded command It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, they made their stand Now inspiring command They would never standby, as their comrades die Broke through the blockade, the rebellion engaged Friendly fighters coming in low suppressing fire, is now dropped upon their foe reinforcements landing on the field Blue Squadron trapped under the shield Chose not to surrender, they chose victory or defeat Fallen rebels resting by their feet Far from their land as they made their stand A disregarded command It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, they made their stand Now inspiring command They would never standby, as their comrades die Broke through the blockade, the rebellion engaged Far from their land as they made their stand A disregarded command It's surrender or die and the stakes are high Live or die, who can tell this is goodbye Weapon in hand, they made their stand Now inspiring command They would never standby, as their comrades die They stood strong and the rebellion lives on Suffered heavy losses through the mission they stood strong But the war against the empire's just begun Far from their land as they made their stand A disregarded command It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, they made their stand Now inspiring command They would never standby, as their comrades die Broke through the blockade, the rebellion engaged
Well to be precise they did not truly know they are up against a sith so maybe better "At dawn of hope against their Rule"? It doesnt really rhyme but its better in Star Wars concept.
Fun fact this was my first time listening to a Sabaton song, and I am now a massive fan of them! Thanks for introducing me, keep up the great work man😎
Lord AJ Well its much more than that. In the Movie, it shows that the rebels are stranded mainly Rogue squadron. And just like irl with the Men stuck in the Argonne. This goes along with the lyrics “They would never comply they would rather die” and “Far from they’re land as they made they’re stand’
When you hear Vader’s breathing during the boarding scene, you pretty much know that s*** is about to go down and the rebels are f*****. I mean, one rebel gets force choked AND sliced in half at the same time.
Rogue One does a good job of showing us the fact that as durable as X Wings are, they’re far from indestructible. They’re vulnerable to attacks from behind.
I LOVE the The Battle of Scarif. I can watch it over & over. My blueray disk of the film has scene selection, so I can watch it that way. But with or without the music, this cut is the best edit of it I've seen. Great work!
0:52: That editing is perfect! They come out of hyperspace right is Sabaton starts singing! The sound of the music almost sounds like the sound ships in Star Wars actually make when they come out of lightspeed. Great job editing this whole video.
Nice music choice(And timing)! On a unrelated note, I do love that the Stormtrooper units have units designed to fit various planet types and atmospheres.
Far from their land, Rogue One made their stand Jyn Erso stood strong, her legend still lives on 0BBY, the Rebellion's hopes are slim Rogue One's forces are trapped on Scarif Pinned down beneath the shield gate, there's nothing they can do There's no way they can get their message through Suffer heavy losses as the battle carries on Jyn Erso and Rogue One standing strong Far from their land, Rogue One made their stand A disregarded demand It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, Erso made her stand Disregarding the council's command She would never comply, she would rather die They broke through the blockade, hope was finally saved Under fire, with no reinforcements sent Fighting chance by chance 'till all are spent Under heavy fire the battle rages on Rogue One stands their ground until all are gone Chose not to surrender, they chose victory or defeat Fallen comrades resting by their feet Far from their land, Rogue One made their stand A disregarded demand It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, Erso made her stand Disregarding the council's command She would never comply, she would rather die They broke through the blockade, hope was finally saved Far from their land, Rogue One made their stand A disregarded demand It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, Erso made her stand Disregarding the council's command She would never comply, she would rather die They broke through the blockade, hope was finally saved They stood strong and the legend still lives on Suffered heavy losses through the long odds they stood strong But the memory of Rogue One still lives on Far from their land, Rogue One made their stand A disregarded demand It's surrender or die and the stakes are high They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye Weapon in hand, Erso made her stand Disregarding the council's command She would never comply, she would rather die They broke through the blockade, hope was finally saved
I'm very critical of what Disney did to Star Wars. But Rogue One? It's canon IMO it at least gets a spot on the timeline between Episode 3 and 4. It's the best movie they did in the franchise and deserves the respect it gets. Ensemble cast like the older movies. somewhat believable villains, a real sense of urgency at the climax, a main character that needs to find a purpose in the story. Geez it even manages to do this damn MCU humor shtick in the serious bits thing right, and they did it with Donnie Yen! Donnie Yen! A man who I've watched crack more bones in Ip Man movies than he's cracked smiles in them. Yeah it does have some misses too (While kinda believable I still think they missed with the Imperial admiral, especially being on the tower when he died, no high ranking officer is going to do that, he demoted himself) but it's not as bad as Solo or TROS and still hits the mark more than TFA. So yeah, this movie and that last battle is worth a Sabaton song.
Yeah that Darth Vader scene at the end was total bad ass.Awesome fist-pump after he sliced the guy in half that he had stuck on the ceiling. Sabaton is an awesome band by the way.
Realistic looking Battles, Empire forces that kill many enemies a Reunion with the Devastator the only fireing Star Destroyer we ever saw and for the final a tast of the Power of Darth Vader. I love this Scene when the rebell scum try to stop the Dark Lord and the on begs to Open the door his face full of naked fear.
they have hundreds of blasters, cannons, whatever, instead of focusing on these swarm of ties and cause that hole station to explode in secondary explosions they shoot on shields.....
Fucking awesome when the rebel fleet comes out of light speed, and the song pretty much matches the battle on Scarif Sir you have done an awesome job Edit: Also how this action became a legend of hope to all of the galaxy, they weren’t killed, they were made into martyrs. Godspeed rebel’s, Godspeed
I watched some Star War videos with Sabaton and most of them were Clone Wars and Galactic Empire which kinda sad to see more people favored the Empire than the Rebel Alliance. Remember, there was no victory in both sides.
2:47 All that space and humans still manage to hit one another in head on collisions, It's like when the country that only had 2 cars and they managed to collide with one another. I wonder if those battle cruisers are insured?
I loved the end of the movie with Darth Vader and how the rebels stood up to him the look on the ones guys face was like well I guess this is how I am going to die. Anyway great music video brought the whole thing together great music and video.
i don't understand why people hate some of the star wars movies. i love all of them and they they are all awesome. people just need to stop being idiots and so serious about every tiny thing. so what if it isn't what you wanted it to be. they are all really good movies. so stop complaining!
Actually at the 2:00 moment they were bombing. The shield platform has too much power output for a Y-Wings ion to take effect. It took 3 Y's to power surge a Destroyer which has WAY less output then that platform.
I know alot of time has passed so sorry in advance. But one of the shield generator towers on the star destroyer was blown off partly. You see it at 1:55 I'm guessing that not only enough damage to the shields happened to the star destroyer but with one of their towers gone the shields were weakened to a state where the Y-Wing's Ion bombs were able to fully disable the Star Destroyer. The Rebel Admiral I can't remember how to spell his name, acted surprised that the Star Destroyer was disabled. Granted this could be me misunderstanding the lines and body language of the actor. Overall I think it took both sides by surprise how much effect the Ion Bombs have against that Star Destroyer and the Rebels used that surprising moment to their advantage later in the battle. Then again that is how I saw that series of events and believed that they did enough damage to the shield gate as they did to that Star Destroyer due to a faulty design choice on the warship.
The Y-wings hitting the gate were using proton bombs, the ones attacking the star destroyers used ion munitions. As mentioned above, a star destroyer can't counter a bombardment of ion bombs with its power output. The gate could. It also still took a full wing to disable one star destroyer.
