What If The Jedi Council PREPARED For Order 66? 

Basically, what would have happened had the Council actually *done* something when Mace Windu flat-out told them: "I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi. The Dark Side of the Force surrounds the Chancellor." You know, simple stuff like maybe extracting the younglings and padawans from Coruscant and sending them someplace obscure? Maybe establish a plan to regroup in the event that the Temple were to fall? What's amazing is that they were at *WAR,* Coruscant had already been attacked, and so you would expect the Jedi to have contingency plans for a scenario where the Republic was no longer their protection.

What if Count Dooku never joined the Sith but still left the Jedi Order with Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Sifo-Dyas, Plo-Koon, Anakin, & Ahsoka, & still made the CIS?

Probably the best "What if Order 66 video" I've seen on RU-vid. I like that this video didn't overly focus on Anakin, and actually made the Jedi look competent. Anakin's decision ultimately didn't matter in the long run since the Jedi were already prepared.

What if Anakin learned how the Sith could forge and implant visions, and how to fight back against them?

ANAKIN WHY!?!???? WHY DID YOU TELL PALPATINE?!?!?

You forgot the part where they all go out for ice cream afterwards. And everyone gets a puppy.

What if Darth Maul betrayed and killed Darth Sidious? What if Obi-Wan turned to the dark side after Satine's death? What if Palpatine never became Chancellor?

This is amazing and you put two and two together I know for a fact of Palpatine has something to do with those dreams

Nicely written story and great touch with the voices.

I think Dooku would be likely to enter negotiations after the proof of Sidious being a Sith and so corrupt, it would bolster his arguments.

I really like this story. I am glad that you were able to redeem 5’s death AND brought back Ahsoka. Though I am disappointed you didn’t mention the Bad Batch. Day 73 of my list. What if; Anakin never gave into his feelings for Padme (Pentre Patrol did his version), Aayla Secura was the chosen one and became Darth Talon, Shme Skywalker was adopted by the Tusken Raiders, Boba Fett saved his Tusken family, Count Dooku was a regular count for the CIS, Jabba the Hutt supported the Jedi at the Start of the Clone Wars, and finally, what if Sabine and Ezra fell in love?

What if Padme survived Child Birth?

What if Palpatine told the senate he was Sidious when he was elected (not illegal by the time of the prequels)? What if Padme didn’t trade Anakin for grievous when they were both captured on naboo What if Anakin used force lightning in various moments throughout the clone wars? What if Palpatine sensed vadar’s betrayal in return of the Jedi? What if Gungi stayed with the bad batch? What if Caleb joined the bad batch when his master died? What if Caleb survived the fire on Lothal? What if Ahsoka got to coruscant with maul before Mace windu left for the chancellors office? What if Ezra found luke instead of obi wan on Tatooine? What if Illum gave Anakin a red kyber crystal?

This was amazing. I’ve been a fan of your videos for a while and it’s always fun to see your interesting SW what if’s. It was also fun to see the Jedi Order being prepared for Order 66 getting shown some love. This is definitely an interesting scenario and it should definitely get shown some more love. Also this is one of the scenarios where I think if they got the info from Fives and took it more seriously, they could’ve survived the Jedi purge. Great job as always and I can’t wait to see what you do next. I do have a few ideas for some possible what if’s: 1) What if Rey was a Mandalorian…essentially what if Din Djarin found Rey and took her in as a Foundling. 2) What if Ezra was a Mandalorian…something like how both his parents were Mandalorians who left Mandalore and went to start their own lives (you could still keep most of Ezra’s backstory) and potentially make Ezra and Sabine a couple (since Disney won’t, we have too…#ezrabine4ever. 3) What if Jango Fett and/or Boba Fett Joined the Republic…I think something interesting could happen with this. 4) What if Rey, Finn and Poe went back in time to the Clone Wars…this would make the World Between Worlds even more of an important focal point and I could also see them get along well with Anakin, Ashoka, Rex and the rest of the 501st (it would be fun to see Rey, Finn and Poe join the 501st) I hope these are some amazing ideas for some potential What if’s

What if Palpatine WAS NOT a Sith Lord (a regular non-Force user) What if a Sith WAS manipulating him via BLACKMAIL (in the OT Palpatine kills his family via The Force but in this Alternate timeline he kills them via conventional means. He manages to cover it up BUT a Sith has discovered it and is using it to Blackmail Palpatine)

"they get the blueprint schematics for the clones", the problem is the kaminoans were under orders to hide the existence of the chips, and any blueprints they gave to the jedi would obviously have them excluded...

What if Dooku was born in the old republic and had mentors such as Treya And Revan as well as his own philosophies guiding him?

new theory: Fives lived and went on to create this channel and this video.

What if Padme woke up in Skyrim after revenge of the Sith Padme - Obi Wan there is good in him i know there is still *dies* Ralof - hey you you’re finally awake

Love these voice actors. They sound like they are from clone wars. Please keep using them!! Wooo!

vjkl/nl;asdhf;asdl'fhj "In the background, Padme would be come pregnant" You make it sound like she got knocked up in a one night stand with someone off camera. XD

What if dooku went to naboo with qui gon and beat maul then trained anakin instead of kenobi

What if Darth Plagueis was found by the Jedi and found Palpatine for the Jedi?

What an excellent Video on What if The Jedi Council Prepsred for Order66.

I like how the Jedi gave mad respect to Fives.

What if thrawn joined the separatists?

Palpatine himself had said if the jedi were able to realize just how much danger they are in, he would have never won.

i dont get the jedi attacking head on to chacellors office, anakin already told them palpatine is a sith lord

Can you do a what if the inquisitors turned to the light

I don’t believe this is what Dooku would have done

Why did Rex’s voice sound southern?

I see three problems with this alternate reality. 1. Imprisoning Sidious? Let's just say Windu was right. Off with his head! 2. Anakin the eternal padawanker becoming a master? LOL He has a LOOOOOOOOOOOT of growing up to do, that ragebaby has the emotional maturity of... well, a toddler. 3. Asohka rejoining and becoming a Knight? I don't think so. Barely anything has changed, the Order is still rigid, full of hubris and glacial if ever in change.

What if Royce Hemlock survived and continued his experiments on Mount Tantiss with the clones, the Force sensitive children and the Zillo beast?

In this case Anaking does not fulfill the prophecy

My only issue with this story is that the CIS had a massive army waiting in the background; without Sidious playing both sides, Dooku would've used it and beat the Republic...

Imaging march on the temple, but with jedi knights marching inside chancellors office

If the Jedi Council had prepared for Order 66, the devastating purge of the Jedi Order by the clone troopers under the command of Emperor Palpatine might have unfolded very differently. Here's a speculative exploration of what could have happened: ### 1. **Foreseeing the Threat** - **Suspicion of Palpatine:** If the Jedi Council had been more suspicious of Palpatine’s intentions, they might have anticipated that the Clone Army, with its mysterious origins, could be used against them. They would likely have recognized the danger in the clone troopers’ unwavering loyalty to the Chancellor. - **Preparation and Planning:** The Council might have developed a contingency plan, including issuing covert orders to the Jedi across the galaxy to prepare for the possibility of betrayal. This could involve secret communication channels, fallback locations, and emergency protocols. ### 2. **Modifications to Clone Protocols** - **Altering or Removing Inhibitor Chips:** If the Jedi had discovered the existence of the inhibitor chips implanted in the clones, they might have taken steps to disable or remove them. This would have undermined the effectiveness of Order 66, allowing the clone troopers to resist the command to turn on their Jedi generals. - **Alliances with Non-Clone Forces:** The Jedi might have diversified their military alliances, relying more on non-clone forces such as local planetary militias, droid armies, or sympathetic factions within the Republic military. ### 3. **Strengthening Jedi Defenses** - **Fortifying the Jedi Temple:** The Jedi Temple on Coruscant would have been heavily fortified, with defenses designed to repel a large-scale assault. This could include physical defenses, strategic positioning of Jedi Knights and Masters, and even hidden escape routes. - **Decentralization of the Jedi Order:** Anticipating a coordinated strike, the Jedi Council might have decentralized their forces, dispersing Jedi across multiple safe locations rather than concentrating them at the Temple. This would make it harder for the clones to wipe out the Order in one swift attack. ### 4. **Counteracting Palpatine’s Manipulation** - **Political Maneuvering:** The Jedi might have worked more aggressively to expose Palpatine’s machinations, using their influence in the Senate to build a coalition against him. They could have sought to rally influential senators, such as Bail Organa and Mon Mothma, to challenge Palpatine’s increasing power. - **Reaching Out to Anakin:** Aware of Palpatine’s influence over Anakin, the Council might have taken steps to strengthen their bond with him, offering him more trust and responsibility, and potentially revealing more about the dangers they sensed. This could have prevented Anakin’s fall to the dark side or at least delayed it. ### 5. **During Order 66** - **Jedi Counteroffensive:** When Order 66 was issued, prepared Jedi would have been able to defend themselves more effectively, using pre-arranged signals to initiate defensive measures and rally reinforcements. Jedi Masters and Knights might have been able to hold off the clones, escape, or regroup. - **Mass Evacuation:** The Jedi Council might have initiated a mass evacuation plan, directing Jedi to rendezvous points across the galaxy. This could involve the use of stealth ships, hidden bases, and alliances with sympathetic worlds. ### 6. **Aftermath and the Fight for Survival** - **Surviving Jedi:** With better preparation, a significant number of Jedi would have survived the initial purge, allowing them to regroup and form a resistance against the Empire. This resistance might have been more organized and effective than the scattered remnants seen in the original timeline. - **Guerilla Warfare:** The surviving Jedi could have engaged in guerilla warfare against the Empire, using their knowledge of the Force and combat skills to strike at Imperial targets. They might also work to undermine Palpatine’s rule by exposing his Sith identity and rallying support among the populace. ### 7. **Galactic Rebellion** - **An Early Rebellion:** With a larger number of Jedi survivors, the Rebellion against the Empire might have started earlier and been more successful. The Jedi could serve as leaders and symbols of resistance, inspiring others to rise against the Emperor. - **Potential Alliances:** The Jedi might have formed alliances with other disaffected groups, such as the Separatist holdouts, criminal syndicates, or alien species oppressed by the Empire, creating a broader and more diverse coalition against Palpatine. ### 8. **Anakin Skywalker’s Fate** - **Preventing Anakin’s Fall:** If the Jedi Council had reached out to Anakin and included him in their plans, they might have been able to prevent his turn to the dark side. If Anakin felt trusted and valued, he might not have been as easily swayed by Palpatine’s promises. - **A Different Role for Anakin:** Even if Anakin still fell to the dark side, the Jedi’s preparation could have led to a different confrontation. Anakin might have faced a stronger and more prepared Obi-Wan, Yoda, or even a coalition of Jedi, leading to a different outcome on Mustafar or elsewhere. ### 9. **Long-Term Consequences** - **A Prolonged Conflict:** The galaxy might have faced a prolonged conflict, with the Jedi and their allies fighting a drawn-out war against the Empire. This could lead to more destruction but also a more determined resistance. - **A Different Galactic Order:** If the Jedi were successful in defeating Palpatine, the galaxy might see a very different political order emerge, possibly with the Jedi playing a more active role in governance or ensuring that a more balanced and just system is established. ### 10. **The Force’s Balance** - **The Prophecy’s Fulfillment:** With the Jedi better prepared, the prophecy of the Chosen One might have been fulfilled in a different way. Anakin could have been the one to bring balance to the Force by leading the defeat of the Sith alongside a stronger and more united Jedi Order. In summary, if the Jedi Council had prepared for Order 66, the Jedi Order might not have been decimated so quickly, leading to a more intense and prolonged conflict with the Empire. The survival of more Jedi could have significantly altered the power dynamics in the galaxy, potentially leading to an earlier and more organized resistance against Palpatine’s rule. Anakin’s fate, too, might have been different, with the possibility of either his redemption or a more decisive confrontation between him and the Jedi.

Spot on video Fantasy Folklore

What if Anakin viewed palpatine as a "weird and strange old man" that tries to talk to him too much?😂

how much would it cost to fan-fund an animated version of this?

I have another what if for you, what if Anakin had asked Ahsoka when she called him from Mandalore to protect Padme, and told her about his visions of her dying in childbirth? Since it is implied she does know Anakin and Padme are together, and Anakin does trust her

What if Sideous woke up late for Order 66

What if Darth Andeddu holocron Heresies was activated unknowingly by Dooku and the spirit seemed out a new apprentice finding it in the form of a turmoil filled Anakin after his mother’s death secretly training Anakin in his dreams, slowly over the course of the clone wars. Anakin starts to recognize that Palpatine was manipulating him so in return he plots to kill him, also side effect of Darth Andeddu’s influence would be Anakin training Ahsoka in the Dark side in spurts of their training?

What if Anakin or Ahsoka were trained by the Yautjas?

What if the jedi served the people rather than the senate ?

What if Heavy survived Rishi

19:22 dooku was dead by then??

What if a parasite actually did affect the clone troopers chips, but instead prevented them from activating during order 66.

Why did they go to Palpatine’s office if they didn’t know he was a Sith Lord?

What if darth maul joined count dooku and they kill darth sidious? Please. Let it be the next video. Please!

What if anakin was son of dooku

What if the hole jedi council went to stop maul

Incredible job. Love this fantastic what if.

I really think all of you just think Anakin is stupid because every time you guys write no matter what he learns he always makes the same decisions and that would never happen his heart and his intelligence would stop that

What if the world between worlds broke making all of stars wars breaking sending them to the wrong time

What if order 66 got corrupted?

Great alternative timeline story

me thinking if Taron Malicos still turned to the dark side, and ani getting banished from the order for marrying and having children with padme. turning to the darkside and taking leia and seeking out the "brother" the dark side if the force incarnate to learn from. while luke is raised in the temple. because Ani still has to bring balance to the force

What if Anakin realized he was in danger?

I saw this in a past video but what if the Zillo beast killed Palpatine?

What if the Kaminions cloned Sifo Diaz and Jango Fetts DNA

What if anakin wore lighter robes (mace coulda trusted him more leading to mutual trust and anakin not intervening with palps v mace)

I like that better. Does that mean we wouldn't have other star wars? Of corse we will it's not like Sith will stop coming. We just would have a different stat wars. With a different Sith then Darth Vader. Or who knows we could still have Darth Vader I mean Anakin is kinda easy to manipulate. And he often let's his emotions take over without thinking things threw very well.

Good story!

What if Barris Offee joined Dooku after bombing the Jedi Temple

Is it just me or is Anakin the most STUPID Jedi and most Convincible Jedi THERE EVER WAS 😭

This was a great story of the Jedi taking action to protect their order Yay 5s

What if Palpatine lost, but the CIS won the war?

What if the clones refused to follow order 66

Leave it to Anakin to still be completely blind to it and still trust palpatine. The guy who wrote this did a great job because this is exactly how Anakin would respond. He was such a fool even in this you have to make him a full because it is exactly how he would have responded. He was so easily manipulated that it was just like sad. Makes me think of a video title.. What if Anakin actually had a spine?

What if Anakin Skywalker didn't have force powers.

What if fox got in a crash on his way to kill fives?

The jedi don't prepare for things , its not in their nature , they are too busy focusing on holding eachother back

can u pls do what if vader fell in love with sabe

You said all the jedi had radio emitters to stop the clones but only activated them half way into the temple and not even the remote ones either?

What if Revan trained Anakin Skywalker What if Vader killed Luke when he said he wouldn’t join him in ESB What if the Jedi assigned Ahsoka to Plo Koon What if Yaddle convinced Dooku to kill Palpatine before he killed her What if Yoda died in ROTS What if Anakin was assigned to Plo Koon What if Jocasta Nu and Qui Gon got married

13:26 Tai Lung!!!!

What if Anakin was a gen z?

What if kit Fisto and Nahdar capture grevius?

What if Luke and Leia switched Luke went to Aldraan and Leia went to Tatooine

What if only clone troopers received order 66 and all commanders like Rex, Cody, Wolf, Gree, and Bly were immune

Dooku didn’t plan on staying a Sith after order 66 he was going to unalive Palpatine & create a new Jedi order away from the Republic

What if anakin skywalker wasn’t told he was the chosen one?

Wait. The Jedi had a sound emiter that could get rid of the chips and they didn't use it idk Everytime clones came in and out of the temple.... So pretty much who who didn't react fast enough died for no reason.

But Yoda was aware of Order 66 and did nothing about it. That's why I think his age played a major part in his Order's downfall. It made him far too complacent to try to stop what he knew was coming.

What if anakin just became padmé’s boyfriend and waited to marry?

what if korkie kryze was obi wans son?

There’s huge flaws in your story . Skywalker wouldn’t know most of the information as it would be known for council members also the council wouldn’t trust anakin as they would know of the connection . 2nd of all Palpatine is smart enough to know if the Jedi knew they probally have created a defence strategy, he would have probally called dooku and grievous to courscant . 3rd of all maul would be the dark Lord of the sith not dooku 4.) Anakin wouldn’t kill dooku as he would not be championed and manipulated by sidious and he wouldn’t be strong enough 5th of all the droid army would decimate the GAR if palpatine had no power , they were purposely made weaken for the republic to fight and even republic were still struggling

And that's how to destroy Star Wars before the original trilogy ever happened. But look on the bright side, Disney wouldn't get to do it.

Not bad content. Subbed

What if Padme never got pregnant

Happy ending, but not perfect. The legit gripes the citizens of the CIS continue to go on ignored.

This characterization of Anakin is horribly childishly bad. This isn’t general Skywalker, this is a 16 maybe 17 year-old rebelling against Mom and Dad because they told him that his 45 year old friend who keeps inviting him over for sleepovers is a pedo.

Why is anakin always an idiot?

Why is Anakin's mind so god damn corrupt

What if palpatine was a jedi

😮

What if this, what if that!? The story was based on the Jedi’s arrogance and incompetence and their ignorance! If the Jedi were observant and listened to Qui Gon Jin in the first place they would have been more prepared for the dormant and waiting Sith when they would eventually show up!!

So not only had Anakin been manipulated he was also stupid...right. Even Anakin wouldn't have fallen for Palpatine's lies if they were that bad. I enjoy most of your stuff, but this one was too far, at least in terms of Anakin rushing to Palpatine's rescue only to realize that he was wrong.

What if Mace Windu did NOT take the E team with him to arrest Palaptine? The jedi kid on the landing platform, had more skills than these "masters" who got taken out like Younglings. Gotta admit the Jedi were corrupt were very arrogant, self-absorbed and egotistical as seen with the Librarian. And out of the thousands of Jedi only Yoda could sense some thing was wrong? All the others were gunned down from behind like chumps.
