Star wars rebels: Rex & Droid Commander put their differences Aside

In the search for arms and artillery, Captain Rex brings the rebels to an old abandoned base from the Clone Wars. They quickly find that they're not alone, however, and must once again face enemies from the past.

The B1 Battle Droids are so polite, they're like space Canadians

[mas]

Hearing a droid openly say “Oh my God!” raises a lot more questions than it should...

[shadowthehedgehog]

Clone Trooper: "I never thought I'd die fighting side by side with a clanker"
Droid: "How about fighting side by side with a friend"
Clone: "Aye. I can do that"

[walesk]

Imagine if the Rebellion seized an old CIS droid factory and mass-produced droids to fight against the Empire...

[MusicMan-xuys]

This scene kind of stresses me out, because every droid that gets destroyed is basically a rare antique

[Spitfire__]

R.I.P battle droids, they just wanted to say greetings one more time.

[VigilTheProtogen]

The droid who got stepped on, the poor guy actually started waving his arms around. That is NOT standard protocol. Seeing his comrades fall caused so much trauma that he became more human, developing a fear of death and overriding his commands to negotiate and his "instincts" to fire back.

You've got to appreciate the detail that the captain orders his troops to stop firing just so the droid can be stepped on.

[Stevegta]

No matter which side they will be, the B1s will always be polite and unlucky.

0:52 The only mention of God within the Star Wars Universe.... And Its Coming from a droid...

[durandol]

As always, the B1s have more personality than most of the cast.

And before this, Rex had a PTSD moment that showed the clones were human. He reacts and calls out for Cody thinking the war is still on and Anakin is on the way to save them. You don't get that many instances of writers of a series showing the effects of war on an individual.

[JustSomeRandomTony]

1:44 my boy straight up walks up to them and says "y'all need plot armor?"

[mjohnsimon]

I love how the Stormtroopers are so chill about this. Shows that this might be a regular occurrence

[melvinhotdogman]

Droids: Comedic
Clones: Badass
Rebels: Only the High Ranks are OP
Stormtroopers: Ruthless

Fun fact: while there were very few separatist holdouts left by the time the Rebel Alliance was formed, the CIS remnants provided the rebels with several Lucrehulks, Providence-class carriers and Banking Clan Frigates. Each one was manned by one battalion of Battle Droids (though the droids were mostly used as security guards, which allowed the rebels to use more recruits for their infantry and navy). In addition to that, they were able to add about 10 Hailfire Droid tanks to the Alliance military, but they were used very sparingly and only during sieges.
The rebels also came close to activating a hidden droid foundry, but the Empire beat them to it and destroyed it.
A famous Rebel Lucrehulk called the Fortressa served as a rebel capital ship until it was destroyed by the Death Star.
However, the Confederate ships became outdated once the rebels acquired the Mon Calamari cruisers. Nevertheless, they all served the Alliance until the Battle of Endor, where they were all destroyed.

"You are against the Empire, I am against the Republic. Now, the Republic has become the Empire..."

*peeps at Rex just to add insult to injury*

"I accept your logic."

[Zeknif]

You can actually see all the stormtroopers looking up after their commander signals them to hold their fire.

You can tell they wanted to see this happen.

[MKfoxbat]

"...and when you were both weak enough, the empire took over."

Implying the Empire is an entirely separate entity from the Republic let alone the clones and droids

[DoctorPepper]

The Empire destroying these is the equivalent of destroying a WW2 weapon. Then again, there were quintillions of CIS Battle Droids produced, so idk if it would be the same or not.
