Colt was aware of a few methods that the GAR held in its back pocket—a few cruel and creative ways of ramming the Alphas where it hurt the most. Desk jockey assignment caused a large amount of chafing. Stationing too many of them at the same command smarted even more.

Star Wars travel is like “time and space aren’t real. You measure hyperspace with your heart.”

[acollectionofhalftruths]

@celestialily exactly! you get it

[kungfuslipr]

lol. I for one am always sure to account for hyperspace time when I write.

The brothers of Delta Squad. 

These were color studies, working in limited palettes that worked with each commando’s color schemes.

I’m still completely obsessed with that game. Republic Commando is the best and all I want is a sequel as amazing as the first. So EA better not touch it.

ms lizard my beloved <3

for the hot character asks, how do we feel about shaak ti? 🤨🤨

Not My Type | Alright | Cute | Adorable | Pretty | Gorgeous | LORD MERCY

Tbh, she kind of intimidates me. Like I feel like I couldn't make eye contact because it would just be an inconvenience for her.

[kungfuslipr]

Hahaha accurate. Shaak Ti is goals. She is also kind.

one (1) tired space dad in a nutshell

A mood

[carbonatedmilkdrink-deactivated]

I feel like Alpha doesn’t get enough appreciation. He was the original Rex. For anyone who doesn’t know Alpha, he was one of the only clones to be hand trained by Jango Fett himself. A special kind of ARC Trooper who had more freedom in terms of opinions and following orders. The only reason he was renamed Rex in canon is because Filoni felt like there were already too many named beginning with A (Anakin, Ahsoka, Artoo, Asajj)

It’s a crime this man wasn’t in TCW

Here are some of my favourite Alpha moments

words cannot express my undying love for this clone

[kungfuslipr]

How coincidental that I’ve just been thinking about alpha non stop for the past couple of days lol.

[kungfuslipr]

Currently yelling about how the ranking system in the GAR doesn’t make any sense. How was Alpha-17–one of the first ARCS and a decorated war hero—only a CAPTAIN. (He was put in charge of training the army’s most elite COMMANDERS??) I’m sure this issue has been explored at length by others but it’s still frustrating me, and therefore worth mentioning yet again.

Getting into the weeds piecing together the history of Rancor Battalion. So many accounts of the creation of the Alphas, who they were, where they were, who trained the ARCs, and what exactly happened during the battle(s) of Kamino, that it’s impossible to find a reliable source that’s completely cohesive. For instance, since Alpha was never included in the Clone Wars show, parts of his history were given to Colt with the effect of the two characters having a conflated backstory.

I’ve taken up audio notes in an attempt to organize a narrative around this time period, and I realized I could probably start a podcast. Just me talking at length about obscure Clone Wars military lore.

2003 Clone Wars was on something completely different

I can't with this I'm actually crying

[delectablyvaliantmentality]

No shit Ani. You may want to get your Force tingle checked, it has some lag.

[kungfuslipr]

Ahhh yes Clone Wars 2003 is one of THE BEST things I’ve ever encountered. Could have died happy watching that, I was laughing so hard.

imagine being the guy who discovered microorganisms trying to explain to people that you promise there are millions of little secret guys on everything

[dechunk]

Imagine: you're a Dutch cloth salesman named Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, and you want to take a closer look at your threads, so you make a microscope. Then you get very interested in making microscopes, and you start making better ones. Like really good, powerful for the time microscopes, without formal training, just because you like looking at stuff.

At the insistence of your doctor friend, you send the notes you've been taking to The Royal Society in London. They say "that's nice" and put it on the fridge. Overjoyed, you keep sending them drawings and notes about all the stuff you see, and they give you a fatherly hair tousle.

Then you tell them you've found tiny animals under your microscope, and they yell that you're full of shit, sending a brigade of scientists to your house. It takes them a year to believe you.

Imagine.

[russingon]

this is an absolutely horrible post that makes no sense but last night i told my roommate that trying to take the lord of the rings, the silmarillion, and the hobbit and explain the tonal and narrative difference and what it all means as a series is like if you only had three sources about what happens in england (a made up place, as we all know) and they were geoffrey of monmouth’s ‘the history of the kings of britain’, modern doctor who, and a singular episode of peppa pig. and you’re out here trying to force these to be part of a cohesive narrative

[marymunchkiin]

Quick drew myself as a Republic Clone Commando codenamed "Iris" (OC?) from the 212th Attack Battalion. 🧡

Made for a college activity but I wanted to share anyway 😂

[kungfuslipr]

This is just... amazing 🤩
