@@Azorees-oj5zr The writers at Disney don't believe in competence. Their framing of politics can't accept that the people in the higher ranks of the Empire will likely be pretty good at their jobs or exceptionally good at playing the bureaucracy. That's why characters like General Hux are just petty laughingstocks. They have to be corrupt nepotism hires or tyrannical bullies. I'm a little scared to see how Thrawn is portrayed by them.

Some much-much-needed complexity was mercifully reintroduced in Andor. I believe we owe that to Tony Gilroy not being a Star Wars superfan - he's actually capable of thinking and writing beyond one's info bubble. The political/family drama of Mon Mothma and the thrilling Luthen Rael subplot were some of the best pieces of sci-fi to be found in recent decades. Shame so many "fans" immediately hated it and declared it a borefest just because there wasn't an action scene every 15 minutes.

The only cohesive part of Legends Galactic Civil War between Return of the Jedi and Heir to the Empire was the X-Wing series, outside of that there was tons of material that didn’t fit together and contradicted. The clean interpretation of Post ROTJ Legends timeline only exists in the Essential Guide to Warfare book

I think this is an absolutely fantastic representation of the galactic civil war. The detail is phenomenal and the main characters well represented!! Well Done Wizards and Warriors and keep up the absolutely amazing work!!

At 29:12 is not entirely correct. Cassian Andor was ordered to assassinate Galen Erso, do to the importance of Erso to the Empire. He could not bring himself to go through with the assassination. But another force was sent by the Rebel Alliance to attack the base, which in their attack mortally wounded Erso. The intention of freeing Erso was by his daughter and the rest of the groups, Andor only played along to get a chance to assassinate Erso. At about 134:40 it was the commander of Blizzard 1 in an AT-AT that took out the power generator at the Rebel base at Hoth, not Vader as the video shows. The audio is correct here, but is confused by the video of a tie interceptor firing on the power generator.

Nice clarification of these errors. There have been a few other errors that I've noticed as well, and I'm only up to the beginning of the events depicted in "The Empire Strikes Back." There is a lot to go through for the crew at Wizards and Warriors, so I suppose errors are bound to happen. (fyi, perhaps his name isn't mentioned for any number of reasons, but the commander of Blizzard 1 was General Veers. "Yes, Lord Vader, we've reached the power generator. The shield will be down in moments. You may start your landing.")

Fair but I think u can view this as WW2 kamikaze, all the armies could do it but it wasn mostly practiced by the Japanese army. So perhaps the resources it would take to get a new fleet or ship makes it unrealistic on the logistic end then what we see.

Aside from losing Thrawn, imagine if Vader had a personal Tie Defender at the Battle of Yavin. Not sure if Tarkin would’ve allowed Thrawn’s input at Yavin, but Vader would definitely have those Tie Defenders.

Loved the re-animation and explanation on these ship battles - well done, sir!

This is a great video so far, but I want to take a moment to talk about how stunning the animation of the Death Star being built truly is. It not only shows the superweapon being built from core to interior to frame, but also shows the adding on of weapon platforms on the surface, among other things like hull reinforments and such. Really makes you appreciate just how much went into this soon-to-be debris field of space dust.

This video is a bold one. Also, when will the prequel that is the Clones Wars happened on this channel?

Y’all are amazing, keep up the great work!

Love these long videos they help a lot of just settling in after a long week 😀

Thanks for this - short summary. It would be useful to see a similar production for the eras from 4000 BBY (or earlier) when the force became usable, and the Jedi and Sith emerged and grew as [institutions]/movements. The 9 films only cover 32 BBY - 35 ABY. This time line includes Solo and Rogue One and all the current TV series. But the history is deep and long (at least to 1,000,000 BBY). Starting with the Celestia Era (c 1,000,00-40,000 BBY); then the era of the Dawn of the Jedi (36,453 BBY) and first Force Wars (25,793 BBY), a host of subsequent expansions, crusades and conflicts, leading up to Old-Republic (25,000-1,000 BBY), High-Republic (500-100 BBY), Rise of Empire/Fall of the Jedi (100-19BBY), Age of Rebellion (3BBY-4ABY), New Republic (5-34ABY), Rise of First Order (34-35 ABY), New Jedi Order/Legacy etc.. (50ABY - unknown)

LFG! Just found your channel and I love the long form lore videos like this and the Dragon Age one.

Feel like there’s some crucial lore from Andor missing in here. The Aldahni Heist being one of the first rebel operations to garner galaxy-wide attention, which brought about the PORD legislation from Palpatine, and the Ferrix Riot being one of the earliest demonstrations of open rebellion against an Imperial occupation. Not to mention how it highlights how the Rebel Alliance started out as individual cells with different ideals, all being secretly funded and orchestrated by people like Luthen Rael, Mon Mothma, and eventually Bail Organa. The effort it took to get them to unite will probably be explored more in S2
