The Republic’s EMERGENCY Plan if Coruscant Fell to the Separatists [Theory] 

As long as Fox dies, I'm ok with Coruscant falling... discord.gg/geetslys Become a member and get exclusive badges in the comments to stand out! ru-vid.comjoin

The republic would have won because Arc Trooper Captain Fordo was there to singlehandedly drive back the Droids

It's sad the whole war was just a distraction so palpatine could play his master plan out

What if Ventress and Maul join forces? Both are pawns tossed aside by sidous and would hold a grudge over what happened the Mother of the nightsisters?

I thought the kidnapping of Palpatine would've driven into distrust, paranoia, and fear that there are Separatist spies inside the Republic, opening the gates to welcome the Separatists to enter.

Definitely helping with killing off boredom during self quarantine

The only real gripe I have with The Clone Wars is they didn't show how great of a general Grevious actually was.

You should definitely do a video on palpatine’s secret fleet and army of clones.

ngl i kinda wanna make a comic series based off of the third option as like an au fic type thing

How different the galaxy would be if Palpatine failed before Order 66.

Couroscant was quarantined in the third scenario like we are

The plan is easy! *Just send in Captain Fordo, as reinforcements*

Just a thought, but considering Order 66 took place within a couple of days of The Battle of Coruscant, wouldn't the citizens have a inflated view off the jedi due to their involvement in the defense of their home planet? I would be a lot less likely to accept the betrayal of someone who just saved me. Just food for thought.

What about what the CIS would've done afterwards? Attacking Coruscant caught the Republic off guard and the CIS had the resources to take it if the played smart. So, the Republic has only just retreated, they aren't even regrouping yet, but their entire government and fleet command system is gone. I wouldn't let them regroup. I would've just charged at the next planet in the core with strategic importance, and take it, and keep going. I don't need to hold the planets, I just need to cause enough destruction to make it useless for the Republic in the short term. In this case, the CIS would be able to win easily because the Republic wouldn't have any way of countering such a coordinated lightning thrust attack.

I wonder what would have happened if Dooku killed Palpatine while he was "hostage" and thereby became the new master of the Sith and full leader of the CIS. There'd be no more Palpatine to meddle with things and direct the course of the war, no more "clone intelligence reports" just Dooku and Grievous wrecking havock with the Republic in chaos. I assume Dooku would try to continue the Grand Plan, albeit from the Separatist's side instead of the Republic's.

What if the battle of Utupau went south? Say the fight against Grievous and Kenobi ended in Kenobi being gravely injured/killed, and Grievous escaped to Mustafar. Alternatively, what if Anikan had gone to Utupau in Kenobi’s place and Grievous had mortally wounded or killed him? Didn’t Palpatine want Anikan to go to Utupau? What was his logic behind that? I know this is 2-3 questions but they’re all interesting to think about.

A galactic empire with Jedi within its ranks would have been something to see. Have you covered the Fel Empire from Legacies? They are like the Empire except that the emperor is good and has Imperial Knights in its service

Palps never would’ve let it happen

I remember back in the old SWBF2 there was the galactic conquest. I only ever played as the republic and the one time I was pushed back to Kamino and one other planet. Courasaunt held out for 8 invasions before falling. They destroyed so many battle droids that they no longer had any fleets to defend any of their other planets with and I wiped the CIS off the Face of the map

Or Palps fries Grievous and shuts down everything, is seen as a savior and still becomes emperor.

I was reading star wars: republic commando, and one of the scenarios for a takeover of coruscant was that the remaining ARC troopers and clones would secretly train the civilians to fight, like guerilla warfare. Of course, that was before people realized Palpatine was controlling everything, so it wouldn't have happened. I still think it would be fun to read about the clones of clan skirata trying to train civilians, though. :)

If option 3 were to happen, the Jedi would have lived. At least with how you described it. A jedi backed Empire would be something.

How could this "other Empire" have used the secret core fleet, if in the Republic, only Palpatine knew about it?

Palpatine sure seems to love hiding secret armies and navies to reveal at the eleventh hour.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="339">5:39</a>-<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="343">5:43</a>: Four Days to be specific. If the timeline of Episode 3 lasting about 4 days is to be believed. Actually that in it of itself could be a cool idea for a video, exactly how much and how bad did the Separatist start losing once the Republic was reinforced and the Droids were shut down.

An alternate timeline book or graphic novel from a Coruscant guard clone trooper’s perspective would be amazing

When he talked about the hidden fleet I was like “hmm that sounds familiar” and then though of TROS and remembered his Sith fleet each ship manned with planet destroying weapons

I personally don’t think that General Grievous would ever accept the republic’s surrender (even if he wasn’t a pawn) because when he was made into a cyborg, his anger and hatred for the Jedi were increased and as I understand it, Grievous seemed to think of the Republic and the Jedi as practically one in the same.

okay so you said hundreds of millions of battle droids were lost and millions of clones would have been lost but didn’t the republic only have abt 6 million clones and especially by the end of the war i doubt most would be on coruscating and the whole numbers things just seems weird

It would be awesome if you made more of these style of videos

Geetsly's you probably wont see this message but anyway I've done some research and discovered a clone ARF commander almost nobody has heard about. If you wanted to do a video on him I could send you everything about this ARF commander and the only image of him (if you want). This troopers name is Commander Dex

I had no idea that order 66 was going to happen in season 7. I suddenly realized in episode 11 and started crying. Star Wars is such a complex story, and I don’t care what people say, the prequels & clone wars show are best.

Have you done a theory where Palpatine died during the separtist invasion of Coruscant? That would be interesting to hear about.

note: grievous only sent a few thousand ships, it wasnt a severe depletion given millions of cis ships remained in the rim. also most reinforcements likely came from the core worlds nearby, so it wouldn't result in immediately withdrawing from the rim sieges. it'll probable make the sieges more static however

If the sith lose its fake At least if they are completely lose its fake but it happens other times too

Great vid man! This really helps with the quarantine.

If Palpatine wanted Coruscant to fall at the time of his kidnapping, it would have fallen. Yet he would see it as being far too risky. Historically every siege or sacking of Coruscant failed and even the destruction of the Jedi temple failed to destroy the Republic from outside forces. His being kidnapped for ransom could either end up being used to end the war prematurely or, extended it without him being in power in the Republic. Both complications jeopardized being able to execute order 66 with justification and, the true formation of his Empire.

What if Coruscant fell and with the Chancellor missing the republic sent the remaining senators Naboo because it is a Ally to the republic many senators are from Naboo and its a well protected planet with its own military. The remaining Jedi would be sent to Naboo to defend the Planet in case of a attack with a small fleet for the defense of the planet. While the rest of the Military builds up and prepares for a counter attack.

I love how Palpatine is just there in the background and when the separatists get a win when they aren’t supposed to he would be like *Thats not supposed to happen* and then just make the republic op

Episode 11 made me cry

It would be the same. Most of the Jedi order would be decimated by Grievous when the planet was taken and order 66 is in the best condition to be activated. It is possible that the rebels might have less numbers with most of the galaxy thinking that this more strict rule is necessary to prevent another scenario like this. It’s impossible to know if the rebels would have had enough numbers to win. If they would win, The New Republic would have to fight entire armies, militias, regimes and rebels of citizens who saw what happened on Corusant

Love how this video shows up in my recommendations after capitol hill gets stormed irl. I feel like YT’s trying to push me somewhere with this but that could just be me seeing connections where there are none. If only I could actually see the algorithm so I could tell for sure.

I feel like they would’ve had to have had a contingency plan if they lost Coruscant. Especially since they would worry about the massive amount of innocent civilians.

I feel like they need to do an extended tv show or comic series of the gritty part of they clone wars, the battles we never saw, the sieges the defences ,the boardings, the repelling and the space battles

You are forgetting that if Palpatine were killed, and the Admirals take control of the war, then the Separatists would then fight seriously as well. Remember the CIS was only losing because Sidious made them fight losing battles, or use bad strategy. The CIS outnumbered the Republic massively. The Super Tactical Droids and Grievous would become merciless and destroy the Republic. They wouldn't be held back by Sidious or Dooku's plans. It would be a REAL war. A bloody one.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="420">7:00</a> Literaly every time the republic drives out the separatists out of ANY planet,i always have the question ,,What tops the seps form coming back".Of course palpatine but still,come on.If the clone wars werent engineered for the republic to win,the CIS could simply keep on retaking a world time and time again untill the republic got tired and stoped trying.

Do these videos more please, it was cool

I like the Coruscant guard, I wish we saw more of them. And some people hate fox, like why? Just because he shot and killed fives, and tried to go after Ashoka doesn’t mean he’s a bad clone, Fives was drugged by that kaminoan, so he reached out for a blaster and it looked to fox that he was about to fire, some he fired first

Interesting point to number 3 if that scenario played out then it’s likely dooku wold have no more use for palpatien as he was no longer controlling the republic and I don’t think he’d have the opportunity to ransom him thus he probably would have had him killed meaning this “empire” would have very little if any real influence from force sensitives

Capturing Coruscant and demanding the Republic's surrender? *laughs in SWTOR sith empire*

Honestly I feel like an armed and pissed off Corcuscant underworld would be like a galactic Afghanistan, at least until Palpatine decided to just let everyone below the cities very upper crust die of starvation and dehydration.

What if the republic just goes you know what grevious is down there plus a ton of droids they are defenseless "assuming the planetary shields were destroyed" they turn the fleet above the planet and glass the entire thing like the sith did to Taris

I wonder what if entire ROTS was all about the battle of coruscant. The Jedi failing to lead Clone Army during early stages of the battle and then Palpatine starts to use it against them and reform the GR to the empire

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="605">10:05</a> I love that he added in a picture of space engineers

If Coruscant fell it truly would have scared the senate into becoming an empire immediately.

When I wish I was in Star Wars I watch geetslys vids My brain : it is the same thing dude

HOI 4 notification sound *Breaking News* Coruscant has Capitulated

Also in the 3rd scenario it would've been almost impossible for Order66 to succeed as Palpatine would have no way to execute the order while being held hostage, only being released after the war was already over.

Great video as always. I don't think Palpatine would have allowed the planet to be taken. It would have scattered the heart of the Jedi. As it stood, he had the Jedi council, the younglings, a huge cache of Jedi/Sith artifacts and knowledge. All of it right there in the Jedi temple. They would have liked fled to dozens of various Jedi temples across the galaxy. Making it much more difficult to destroy the Order.

hey man love the channel keep up the great work!!! I'm rlly sad that battlefront II got its last update

I think you should do more videos like this. I like this kind of what-if scenarios.

Well the separatists where meant to outnumber the republic, so if they had more troops this might of happened, it was said they had quadrillions (or trillions I forgot)if troops, and if they had maybe a few billion troops they would’ve easily got it.

If my Capital is captured I would glassed every Separatist planet, starting with the banking clan planets, from space and once completed brought the entire fighting force back to the Capital as well as sending arms to the lower levels and outlawing droids in nearly all of the Republic.

At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="470">7:50</a> I thought I was seeing old Luke Skywalker.

Very interesting and what i do wonder is, if the Empire rose after sucha loss, Jedi being put in secondary roles (as they actually wanted to be all along) would Palpatine still have executed order 66? I mean, That could've been the moment HE from all emperors could've been the first to end that as it's a different story. Just curious now xD

I think Palpatine, in his grand scheme, wouldn't have wanted to let Coruscant fall to the SIC, that's why he didn't order Dooku or Grievous to mold an insurrection amidst the populace of the lower levels.

Geetslys can you answer me this question what if the jedi were apart of the war but only as rescuers and defenders what would happen in this scenario?

Big fan love your vids

Just want you to know I love the Battlefront (original) zoom. It was one of my favorite shooters and my favorite maps were the ones I could camp out with a Rebel sniper.

“What would the republic do if coruscant was lost?” I’d hope they’d at least look for it before anything.

The last scenarios so interesting; since instead of Palpatine becoming Emporer, I would image that an Oligarchy of Moffs would form like in the original lore.

The one issue though is Darth Sidious would have won either way unfortunately.

If only while those 2 B2s could have missed and hit Palatine while he was captured by Dooku and Greivous. Would have saved us so much hurt

A Coruscant based insurgency would've been devastating considering how labyrinthine the lower levels of Coruscant are insurgents would have plenty of hideouts and escape routes to use and I imagine targeting the economic centers would be devastating to Republic reducing the public's support for the war. And with any invasion on the planet the defenders would be fighting a two pronged attack one from above and one from below splitting the defenders attention and resources two ways.

It was the Senate.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="268">4:28</a> the senate was already defunct.

I love how the thumbnail reminds me of Sgt Hartman and FMJ. Imagine clones singing happy birthday to jesus.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="152">2:32</a> another possibility for CIS would have been to find a way to pass clandestinally plans to build B1 + few tools to make clandestine workshop, for pro CIS to build secretly B1 and stack up enough of them for some time until finally deciding to seize some important places in coruscant by surprise

Such a huge city planet and Obi-Wan still found a shitty dinner to be a regular at. Even knows the owner

Could you do a Theory on what would jave happened if Commander Thorn killed Count Dooku during his last stand? Im just curious about this

with all of this logic, why did we not see any damage on the surface

I believe you’re forgetting about Palpatine. Letting the crown jewel of what would soon be his empire fall would drastically lower trust in his military forces, not just the Jedi. It would also spark chaos deep into the senate that most likely would have most likely grow a competency in the senate again. Granted, Palpatine is a Sith Lord, he can get around this, but it would be much harder to stake a claim as emperor when you’ve been kidnapped for several standard months and the republic was doing fine. He would have used battle meditation or some other force ability on the clone army to assure the victory of the republic.

How wild. If Palpy died and the Empire continued, things WOULD have been a lot different. Very interesting take.

I prefer a tactical strike toward the planetary shield generators, neutralising the defences followed by a base delta zero

Another fine Geetsly video to add to my collection.

Is it just me, or does everyone else also keep hearing croissant instead of Coruscant as well?

They should make a movie out of the first separatists attack. From the original star wars the clone wars 2003.

Hey Geetsly's! Happy New Year!

In episode 11 when order 66 is declared and the clones try to kill ashoka there is an arc trooper in the 501st idk who it is and to see him u kinda got to slow it down but he in where the bridge is and he comes in wit dat squad of 332nd troopers and i was wondering who he is. So maybe u could do a vid on him

Enemy forces have taken a command post

Me and 501st is ready for deployment. Give us those clankers

I think the same thing would have happened as what happened in the Old Republic, but if Darth Sidious, and Dooku didn't control the control the Confederacy, then it's likely the General Grievous would try to take control of any military or cloning facilities that are nearby Coruscant, however you have to remember there was a plan for Grievous to capture Darth Sidious, and even if scenario where Sidious is not in control of the Confederacy there still would have been plans to capture Darth Sidious, and if he's on Coruscant during the time of the invasion Grievous would have done it and probably killed Sidious. But this wouldn't matter is Sidious we're just used some kind of force Essence transfer, just like he did in Return of the Jedi, except he be doing it to take control over one of the Jedi on the Jedi Council. Plus the Confederacy hit a bigger military so I don't think the other stuff that you were saying would have actually worked neither because they were under control by Darth Sidious, who is effectively disabling the Confederacy for political gains within the Republic, which kind of didn't make any sense considering the fact that the Confederacy had control of the banking clans, and they had a far larger, and bigger military. It would have made just as much sense for Sidious to use the Confederacy to take over the entire galaxy then to make up a stupid scheme playing as a senator from Naboo then Chancellor playing as commander and chief in two different governments that were at war with each other so he can create his own Empire, when he could have just created his own Empire out of the separatist movement, when the Republic had little-to-no military.

And what about the Jedi Temple?

We're missing a very substantial 4th option that i can vividly see based on what we know about Grevious. He gets impatient, kills palpatine in a rage about the count trying to negotiate and rains all of holy hell on the planet. As stated he doesn't know shiev is sideous

This was probably the plan had the Jedi prevented Order 66 and/or eliminated Darth Sidious.

It wouldent last because of Sidious anyway...?

I mean what's the point, Palpatine would've won anyways

Losing Coruscant by itself probably isn't as devastating to the Republic as it might seem. Yes it's the galactic central hub of trade and politics as well as the Jedi Temple, but the Republic still have tons on industrial worlds pumping out clones and warships. I think it would turn into "how long can the Seps hold on to Coruscant?" or do they just scorched earth the whole planet and more on? The Republic could recover, but they'd have massive economic downturns (not unlike real life right now).

The first song is called Resolution - Wayne Jones

Wait if they kill most of the Senate and capture some of what remains who would have the authority to negotiate peace? The Jedi may be the only ones possible but many wouldn't accept them as Palatine by this point had broken the trust in the Jedi. Without a head individual planets or planets who are closely allied like Mandalore (who is at war by this point thanks to Maul) and its league of 1000 would negotiate on its own But this wouldn't affect Ryloth or Kysheek who may Sue for peace but there may be holdouts. Thus they'd need to run a campaign against those who still have enough Naval power to potentially go on the offenseive (Kuat, and Anaxes for example though without a head to help them quardinate their moves they'd be at a huge disadvantage) while simultaneously Negotiating with those who wouldn't want to fight on their home planets (Kamino for example as they were only in the war to get recourses for their planet) or planets who could easily be taken in space with only few ships (Ryloth, The Nerman , and Christopsis) thus they could be subject to starvation and orbital bombardment until they surrender with minimal risk to the Confederacy. In Other words I think the Sepis would win but it would be slow without a Central Government to negotiate with. Also I am going of the assumption here that Dooku, Palatine and Anikin all die in the Attack. Maybe corporate Alliance Blows up the ship during Dookus and Anikins duel? This would eliminate Obiwan (unconscious at the time) Dooku (not skilled enough to survive) Anikin would be caught off guard and Palatine would be restrained but even if he could survive he would have revealed himself and the only one I could plausibly see escaping in time is Grevious who would like just fire from another ship to destroy wherever Plapitine fled to. This leace Grevious whom the Alliance might be able to just shut off his Life support from afar once he wins enough the war for them. Besides the Jedi whom are distrusted by the whole Galaxy at this point the sepratist Allince would be the last legitimate Galactic Government left and with maybe an Attrocity carried out by a "Republic Holdout" this would leave the Corporate Allince in control allowing them to do as them to do as they wished able to set up a puppet Sepratist Senate loyal to the Corparations to make the foolish feel represented. Do I feel uprisings would happen? Yes but I Don't think a successful Rebellion would occur unless the Corporations started gunning each other down. The major funding to the Empire's Rebels came from worlds and Businesses who were disenfranchised by the Empire but with all worlds now having all their credits going to corporations who rule the government no world would be able to give them money and corporations would have no reason to. What's worse is if a Rebel Cell started to form then they could raise the cost of Tibana Gas, Hyperspace fuel , and Bacta In That region with a huge discount to the Force who fight the Rebels. Your Grandma is in desperate need of a Bacta treatment? Sign up and join the Corporate forces to battle down the Rebels who have brought this suffering upon you. I think as long as the Corporations play nice they could rule for a very long time. Thanks for the video and have a wonderful day.
