OOM-9 showing that droid commanders deserved respect long before the arrival of super tactical droids.

[fishfossils]

Anyone who played Galactic Battlegrounds knows what a legend OOM-9 is.

[childishisnotachild]

imagine a series about background characters, where each episode tells the backstory/story of a background character, like "OOM9: A star wars story" or R2-D2's battle droids. and the series will live up to the title of "every character in star wars has a story"

[NipsnTips]

OOM-9 is pretty cool. Everything from his color scheme, voice, to his overall competence as a droid commander just makes him interesting. I always appreciated how in the novelization of The Phantom Menace, he gets a lot more dialogue.

[paulstephensia]

OOM-9 was a legend of nostalgia, it actually brought tears to my eyes seeing him again.

[The-Opium-Den]

Definitely a battle droid commander with a good record. Even some Tactical Droids can't boast about having his sort of success although it could be argued the central computer did much of the processing for him. Nevertheless, I'm grateful for this video and look forward to the next one about another forgotten Star Wars antagonist.

[TheWarmachine]

Imagine if OOM-9 being a member of the Rebel Alliance fighting against the Empire.

The Rebel Alliance was composed of people from the Republic and Separatists who joined together against a common foe.

[TheCatWatches]

OOM-9 has been my favorite Phantom Menace character since the 90’s. If Anakin didn’t destroy the Control Ship, OOM-9 would’ve decimated the Gungans

[solidglegend]

Had he survived or at least been recovered and refined or whatever, he would've made a great second in command under General Greavious.

[ftjqvil]

Wow, he actually was more competent than many (non-clone) organic commanders, even of the republic!

[xarthys]

Personally OOM-9 is one of my favorite Droids within the Star Wars Universe. He was a true chad.

[EWLR]

I like to think that the CCC helped play a roll in this. All the Battle Droids would report to the CCC, it would formulate plans and send them to OOM-9, where he would choose and change plans based upon battlefield conditions. I feel like when the Trade Federation and latter the CIS stopped using CCC's for armies, they lost fluidity in their military operations.

[jackormel]

This sent me reeling back to when I first started playing Galactic Battlegrounds. One of my favourite classic RTS games; and yeah, OOM-9 was an efficient MENACE to the ground forces of Naboo.

[blakena]

.... I STILL love playing his mission arc in Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds.

[jaxl]

Commander OOM-9 was the prototype droid models but yeah he was a Scary voiced Battle Droid, OOM was the designation for the predacessor to B1 battle droids not the name of 1 individual droid they all were OOMs

[blackblack]

It's a shame droids don't get attention like the clones do. They have a lot of potential.

[lerneanlion]

In Legends, I heard OOM-9 was rebuilt and was in services through into the Clones Wars. Sadly, that Legends no longer canon because we will get to see this droid commander in the Clones Wars.

[jamessmith-dbis]

A Disney+ series about surviving droids after RoTS, having some off the droids developing personalities, having to hide and defend against the clones/new storm troopers

[minicle]

Headcanon, General Kalani is a rebuilt OOM-9. I'm sticking with it.
If Darth Maul can survive being cut in half, anything is fair game.

[c-secofficer]

As kids you just gravitate to certain characters, and for my little brother it was the Battle Droids and he couldn’t get enough of them. And I remember after we saw the movie my dad took us to a toy store to buy a Episode 1 toy and my brother got OOM-9
