I think instead of “rejoining”, it’ll be domination. From what we’ve seen from the books, Thrawn’s motivations vary significantly from other Imperial warlords, as he wishes to advance the security of the Chiss instead of serving the Emperor. Now that the Empire’s been usurped by the Republic, it’s proven itself to have been weak, something he doesn’t want. So instead of indulging in the Council’s fantasies of reimplementing their already flawed power base, he’ll build his own, and give the rest of the Council an ultimatum of loyalty or destruction. Of course, Hux isn’t going to join this and Gideon already did not trust Thrawn, so the cracks are already there, but he will take at least some of their power.

Nice reference 💯

One reason I think an 'All of the Above' option for Thrawn is particularly compelling is that it thematically parallels quite nicely with Thrawn effectively using the New Republic's own tactics from their Rebel days AGAINST them. A big aspect of the Rebel Alliance was that it was made up of many desperate groups united for a common goal and against a common enemy. So Thrawn likewise bringing together various Imperial Remnant factions, numerous imperial stragglers, hijacked New Republic ships, the Chiss Ascendancy, his own Empire of the Hand, Dathomiri Nightsisters and Zombies and maybe even some Dark Jedi as a kind of 'Alliance to Restore the Empire' feels quite appropriate.

Killed by a single X-Wing armed with snarky remarks.

A common misconception was that the Empire of The Hand represented the whole Chiss race. It only involved Thrawns families resources and a few like minded young Chiss from other families as he had been exiled by the Chiss Government for breaking their non-interference so as to conserve resources and conceal themselves from enemies policy (Chiss fleets rules of engagement was they could only retaliate or prevent an impending attack but he cheated by goading them into an attack and was found out), after his defeat in the Thrawn Trilogy he returned to reclaim his inheritance and started the Empire of The Hand as a political movement to try an overturn the isolation policy. The Chiss were so into hiding the 9 main families didnt even know the location of each others homeworlds!

I would love it if they re-introduced the Victory Class Star Destroyer into cannon and have that ship be the new standard you see during engagements.

I had a thought. _The Eclipse_ has been made canon but it's been made an Executor class. We haven't seen this ship in some years now. With a damaged _Chimaera_ Thrawn's gonna need a replacement. What better replacement for the heir to the empire than the former emperor's personal command ship and a ship he would approve of since he was all about more and better ships than superweapons? I could see Brendol Hux and Sloan handing it over to him since _The Supremacy_ will be under construction at this point. We've never seen Thrawn use a Super Star Destroyer so this would be awesome and it would be awesome seeing that ship on screen again.

Daka alone could resurrect an entire army worth, that even gave Grievous a hard time, where he had to resort to killing her to stop the spell. I'am not quiet sure how powerful these 3 new witches are supposed to be, like on one hand they could perform this magic, while Talzin could not. But then again they make kind of a big deal of summoning Talzin's sword, as they couldn't make anything better themselves, or they foresaw that Elsbeth would fail and they didn't care much about it, or perhaps it was a big deal, but they could just summon it again anyway. Or perhaps Talzin's sword isn't so much an unique item, but a spell Talzin invented.

I think the Chimera itself will be Thrawn's flagship, I don't see him using an SSD when he could just build a fleet around his Star Destroyer. Also, I used to be concerned about "retcons" regarding the post-Endor books, but so far, any contradictions have been minor and still respect the expanded media. I mean, the New Republic Era is described as being "relatively peaceful," so I'd expect some conflict in between the major wars.

I honestly kept expecting one to betray the other in this season

I want a WARLORD Era where some Imperial Warlords not only resist Thrawn's ascendance but fight amongst themselves and betray each other. Its a good way of showcasing how Thrawn's troops are a different cut since Warlords do not have plot armor in the same levels as "the good guys".

I think it could be really good storytelling to have the next season of Ahsoka focus on Thrawn's effort to consolidate a sufficient fleet while Hera struggles to get the New Republic to allocate enough forces to stop him from doing so. Maybe he could make a play for some secret technology like the Star Forge from KOTOR or like the Katana Fleet that might allow him to quickly bring a very large fleet of major capital ships under his command. I sort of expect that any major space battles in this story are going to be told in movies, not in the streaming shows, so I think they're going to build up to something slowly. And of course, while this is happening, the Jedi in the other galaxy have their own adventure before finding a way home.

The problem is _scale_ which Star Wars is very bad at... Sure the "New Republic" is disarming since they won a war (because it's a pretext to explain why the Republic Navy didn't exist in TFA) but what type of ships are they mothballing? Sure, I'll grant that they destroyed 95% of their battlefleet (Mon Cal Cruisers, Imperial Star Destroyers, and other similar and largest ships) and half of the remainder is in mothballs... that's still 2.5% of active battlefleet Thrawn, and his supporters, need to deal with. Even then, the corvettes, frigates, and cruisers wouldn't be drastically reduced as much as the battlefleet for they are too important as scouts, escorts, anti-piracy duties, and hunting down warlords who haven't figured out the war is over. The we see a new ship class which looks to be around the size of a light cruiser. With enough support, a squadron of them will be able to take on an ISD (although they will suffer losses). So it's a matter of scale... do the forces Thrown will have be a threat to the New Republic _long_ term? Short term, they could be a threat to some task groups, maybe a task force... but once the New Republic navy gets their battlefleet on scene... Thrawn will lose.

Since Thrawn's weakness, so to speak, is the unknown, I could see the eventual First Order groups, like Hux, betraying him. Thrawn doesnt know that Palpatine wants to destroy the Empire for failing him. The New Republic is already cocky. Defeating a fleet ammased by Thrawn would really inflate their ego. The First Order would be able to build and prepare without raising suspicion.

I don't know if this will come up in the main media, but Canon books have repeatedly emphasized that ISDs are resource-intensive ships that have serious problems when left outside of the Empire's logistical network for too long. Given that almost everything the Shadow Council has has been out of that network for 5+ years, it could be that most of their Star Destroyers are in somewhat rough shape as it is. I think that would be a fun dynamic, with even non-Chimera ships falling apart or undermanned.

Thanks for ur commentary.

Unless they add the katana fleet, it’s gonna be basically zero since the remnant had next to no navy.

I hope that they are going to be elite and not like the average Imperial military.

It'll be as powerful as written.

I do wonder if Thrawn will take control of Mount Tantis like he did in the legends books. It was an important staging area for Thrawn. Also I've thought of something else. In Jedi Fallen Order Cal fights Terron Malicos on Dathomir. I wonder if he might be Thrawns Jorus C'baoth. I think the nightsisters might function like the Noghri and the ysalamiri all in one.

I feel like hardly anything happened in Ahsoka S1, I was expecting (or at least hoping for) a much faster pace. For example, that the events of episode 8 would already take place in episode 4 and so on. Apart from that, it was a bit predictable, which didn't help the slow pace.

I think this is probably Disney’s strategy to extend beyond the Sequel Trilogy which very clearly was originally meant to be the last movie and end of the cinematic timeline.

I think canons version of the Empire of the Hand would work well and be one of the coolest story elements. There is already a setup for an Empire of the Hand type thing unlike back when Heir to the Empire was first written and Thrawns backstory had not been established. This will be a great way to bring the Chiss into the greater Star Wars media and also maintain Thrawn as being morally ambiguous instead of just evil

For all we know, the entire 7th fleet was dragged away by the purgil. Thrawn could be hiding these ships somewhere. If we’re lucky, we could even get the Katana Fleet

7:16 I’d love to see those two in a live action movie or show.

If we get the bellator it would amazing. If Gideon is actually dead what ever is left of his forces will probably rally around thrawn, and there seems to be a lot of imperial sympathizers still running around unchecked, many of whom are probably quite capable soldiers/officers, engineers and even pilots

Had Season 3 of the Mandalorian not happened, Moth Gideon would probably still be alive serving under Thrawn with his retinue of soldiers cladded in Beskar. Let’s hope the Katana Fleet/Dark Force make a comeback in the new cannon.

The aspire had thousands of battle ships and hundreds of dreadnaught. That dozen number is just the exsecutor class and actually there were 13 in canon and 50 in legends. Fun fact

Hey Eckhart. Empire of the Hand would be insane to see here, but it's unclear where - or when, rather - in the new "canon" that Thrawn would've had time to establish it. =\

Being as the Chimera was lost, and the Pentastar Alignment has yet to be shown, maybe Gilad organized this neo-imperial faction from the SSD Reaper, which was the flagship of the faction. Further, Gilad may also have stashed the SSDs Megador and Dominion somewhere. In Legends, Pellaeon just happened upon them at a forgotten shipyard, but in this new cannon, Gilad would need some military advantage powerful enough to warrant a) his place on the Imperial Shadow Council and b) a means of leverage to force the other warlords in line behind Grand Admiral Thrawn. 3 SSDs would definitely fit the bill and if Gilad had recruited large entities of the Corporate Sector Authority, he would have the credits and the resources to both man his fleet and the ability to infiltrate large areas of New Republic industry, of which we already know has been done. Honestly, I just really want Pellaeon to be as big a player in cannon as he was in Legends😅

Any blue dude with red eyes who doesn't smile will be awesome.

Well, the fun thing about Thrawn is, you know he's dangerous however much he gets to use. I presume it'll be significant, just from the setup.

However i really would like to see the political tension when Thrawn contracts the imperial remnant! Gonna be epic!

I would like to see Thrawn actually win. Even though he may die in the process, maybe his victory will help create what will become the First Order and the Republic is at an armistace. As for the Katana fleet, maybe a large amount mothball ships from the clone wars or early Empire? Either way, Feloni's got this.

I hope we get a look at another SSD class since we've only seen the Executor in Star Wars Canon movies and TV shows. I would like to see either a Bellator or maybe the Eclipse. Also I would sove to see the fractured imperial fleet dawn on a rebel-esque style fleet with many different ships

"Whatever the plot requires"

Pretty sure those caskets contain the sleeping Night Sisters to repopulate Dathomir, part of Thrawn's deal with the "Great Mothers" who will replace C'Baoth as his force sensitive advisors. I expect Season 2 of Ahsoka will start with Thrawn travelling to Wayland to pick up a "small - almost trivial - piece of technology", possibly along with a cloaking device for a later raid, who knows? I'd say the next season of the Bad Batch will show us what's going on there and whether this is a live possibility.

People forget about Admiral Daala’s fleet with her half finished DS-1 hidden in the Maw Installation without knowing that Tarkin died and the Empire fractured 😮

Honestly going after some caches of hidden Star destroyers, maybe they didn’t have enough crew to be taken into the unknown regions? Would be a lot like the search for the Katana fleet and very in character for Thrawn

Something that I know it's going to happen is that we're not going to see any epic spacebattles because they seem to be lacking in current Star Wars era let's hope they use thrawns real strength which is a monster at Fleet combat

In one of the Star Wars comics darth vader went to Mustafar and there he found the map to exogol . When he used the map he went to exogol and saw the huge fleet of palpatine and realised how powerful he is so thrawns fleet could be mixed up in there but it’s likely no because thrawn had no knowledge about the fleet and exogol

Fans: Have thrawn build the fleet using imperial remnant resources Writers: Magic fleet using the Nightsisters.

I'd expect something similar to the original Thrawn novels. Most of the Warlords hold onto the bulk of their own materials. Thrawn placating them but taking on a small fleet of only commanders he felt he could trust implicitly. Give us a season or two of him building up his forces, maybe convincing some of the Warlords to help more or with some other clever plan. It's hard to say, but I think at least for now Thrawn will have to stay mobile. The warlords even if they become loyal are scattered. Thrawn can't pick a place to concentrate himself without risk of an overwhelming New Republic response. But what he can do is keep them off balance with hit and fades, building what he needs while keeping the Senate from being convinced the to throw everything at once or at least forcing them to scatter in a search so he can pick his battles.

Man I wonder how things would’ve gone if Thrawn had been the main leader to command the Eclipse SSD leading the Empire off into the unknown regions. With no Sidious out there only a real version of Snoke that actually works alongside Thrawn. Snoke in charge of the Sith stronghold on exugol training soldiers to be more like Maul & Savage alongside force sensitive Special troopers that were not strong enough to become anything more. Merging the First order with other planets out there. Having a large fleet of both old ISD 1-2 upgraded working with the new resurgent class star destroyer. Going against a much more competent new republic that didn’t choose to disarm & dismantle all of there ships. Along with having Luke & Leia next to Ashoka Ezra Sabine & Grogu leading a NJO with about 50 jedi masters 100 jedi knights & 150 padawans. With the jedi close friends with the Mandalorian people leading to any force sensitive mandalorian found young enough there taken to a special training moon for the new hybrid Jedi/Mandalorian organization lead by Ezra Sabine & Grogu. Created by the new Mandalor duel leaders Djinn Djarin & Bo Katan whom are now married.

Depends on several factors, such as how much territory do the imperial remnants still posses? How much military force including ships and l industrial defense capacity do they still retain after the end of the war and what’s their state of readiness?

I have a whole theory/story in my mind (mostly a story, I don't it'll be canon, but I just like to make up stories nonetheless) about how all this stuff going on with Thrawn might relate to the fall of Rae Sloane. I doubt any of this will come into the shows, but there seemed to be an implication that Sloane was ousted at some point by Snoke and the eventual pre-First Order leadership. What if the defeat of Thrawn is what allowed that to happen? As in, Sloane agreed more with Thrawn and wanted to support him since they have similar ideas on how a "reformed Empire" should look, so once he's defeated she's lost a ton of allies and Snoke and Brendol Hux get rid of her.

It's like the weapons on the Imperial Star Destroyers are accurate or cause much damage.

I'd like to see Thrawn offered all these ships but have to refuse most as he doesn't have the crews or any way to supply most of them, he'd have to go through the available ships and pick the most suitable ones for his fleet.

If Rebels and the Sequels are anything to go by.....it'll be like 7-8 Star Destroyers, and they get destroyed by a bunch of Y-wing/X-wing runs. Thrawn had a whole fleet on 8x ISDs, 15x Acquitens and 3x Gozantis around Lothal (Even though the fuel depot had been destroyed, supposedly housing the entire sector's fuel supply), and he got defeated and trashed by several X-wings. I doubt this time will be any different.

I think right now we don't know much about the Remnant forces because they themselves don't know their own strengths. Most warlords probably aren't part of the shadow council, which means most Imperial assets are unknown as they retreated to their own fiefs or simply into deep space, and do not share anything with each other. The shadow council itself seems to very much distrust each other, so while they nominally cooperate, they seem more willing to WANT assets, but not to GIVE any. So they are keeping their cards closer to their chests. There's still the core worlds Imperial rump state, that acknowledged the Galactic Concordance. They could mothball their main fleets, but I doubt they'd totally destroy it. Probably hid them or clandestinely donated the ships they couldn't legally have to other warlords. All these different remnant factions will undoubtedly control planets, outposts and shipyards, but with fractured they are, i doubt they can really produce anything new. But united under Thrawn? I bet that could change.

I hope Tharwn doesn't get killed at the end of this story arc but instead loses the end battle due to some Force-related factor that he couldn't fully predict. Gets saved by Ar'alani and Vanto at the last minute, moving on to his grander purpose of defeating the Grysk. I believe that could also be 'artistically done'.

I really want to see more of Moff Gideon's projects, BC for one I don't think that they are at an end just yet (If they don't do literally anything with all the Cloning buildup in all of Mando seasons, then it's really just a waste of time) and the Imperial Armored Commandos are something much like the Tie Defender, just for Stormtroopers instead, I think even if Gideon doesn't join up with Thrawn, much of his projects would be taken over by Thrawn as most High Ranking Imperials have a theme of taking over someone else's work.

God I hope Faro's 11th Fleet comes in to play, considering that Faro was his protege in canon

It will be extremely limited forces because of the FO, he will not have access to large large scale forces

all those random ships that vanished from Giddons base have a home now yay I am expecting to see at least 5 ISDs. 4 or 5 good looking support ships 1 or 2 stolen cruisers or something we have not yet seen

I have a feeling we could get a reverse Rogue One situation. With Thrawn and the remnant Empire utterly defeated, but with a few survivors escaping with or even just transmitting the plans for Starkiller base.

Starkiller base would most likely be in construction already since it's converting a planet the length it would need to be complete would be longer then what it took for the Death Star.

Possibly, although the planet is already there, it might be less labour intensive than creating a moon sized station from scratch. Add to that the huge trench around the equator was already there from the extensive mining of Kyber crystals used for both death stars. @@mightheal

i hope we get the onager class star destroyer as well as maybe raising the lusankya from coruscant?

The Pellaeon Class Star Destroyers

Imagine the republic without General Syndulla, they seem not wanting to support her and she is one of the few people that knows how to fight thrawn

I'm not fully up tp date in the new canon, but is it necessary for thrwan to act out his plan before the new trilogy, to preserve continuity? If not, could there perhaps be an inner imperial civil war pre-new-trilogy that results in the first order and Trawns imperial remnants separating, with Trawns remnants retreating to emerge sometime AFTER the new trilogy?

What was the game you are using during video, with the 3d ship models in battles?

First thing Thrawn will need to make priority is repairing the Chimaera and get her in working order again. My prediction is that Thrawn is going to be looking for the Katana Fleet.

the list of possibilities is almost endless i feel like. if thrawn somehow brings the Ascendancy into the galaxy along with Imperial remnants AND a katana fleet type esq then holy shit will daves movie be absolutely insane. i doubt itll be an all of the above but i wouldnt be surprised if he brings the remnants together and that leads to the battle of jakuu and is able to recover either ships from the new republic like at sluis van or a canon katana fleet. either way i think this movie has the ability to the biggest movie in box office history.

does anyone think that since Ahsoka, Ezra, Sabine and Hera do not show up or are even mentioned in the Disney movies and all comics, books that are set in that era that Thrawn ends up taking all up them out before he is taken down himself?

Do we know if all the SSDs are dismantled and located? He could dismantle the scion and use those hyperdrives and build his own SSD. It's not like he needs the Scion anymore anyway.
