Rebel Admirals Rex & Kalani from an au where the clone and droid rebellions were a bit more successful

Rex's fleet (rebel fleet Remembrance) - the whole 'ahsoka's not actually a jedi' thing worked and most of the 332nd got dechipped. (maul still escaped, but they managed to patch up the maul-damage before he got to the hyperdrive, so the Tribunal is mostly okay). the extra resources & manpower allowed the clone rebellion to operate on a much larger scale, and they eventually allied with pantora as a whole with the backing of senator chuchi. cody and later wolffe brought their imperial fleets to join the rebellion about a year later (after the chips started wearing off).

the fleet (one venator (the Tribunal), four star destroyers, associated clones, gunships, fighters, and tanks, plus a handful of stolen imperial walkers and shuttles) formally joined the rebel alliance around 10bby.

(rex got put in charge of the fleet because he's the least traumatized out of all the surviving officers. cody ran off to live with obi wan on tattooine.)

Kalani's fleet (rebel fleet Independence) - something happened and he and kraken managed to steal a chunk of dooku's ships (and later a good chunk of whatever was left of grievous' fleet on utapau) after his death. they essentially got lost in the chaos of o66, since the rest of the separatists thought they were deactivated after the shutdown order, and escaped with essentially a full separatist fleet. since they were active instead of stuck on agamar, kalani noticed that the leader of the empire happened to be the republic's supreme chancellor, and decided the empire was the new target of the CIS army. he later encountered the clone rebellion and decided that since the clones had effectively deserted the republic and were now fighting the empire, they were therefore allies.

the fleet (one dreadnought, three cruisers, one stolen imperial carrier, associated droids, fighters, transports, and tanks) formally allied with the rebel alliance around 10bby, with the backing of serenno and raxus secundus.

#star wars #au #redbean art #admirals au #captain rex #general kalani #rex's rank continues to be weird because now he is an admiral (because the fleet was rather lacking in officers who were not #dead (most of them); imperial (anakin; yularen); or too traumatized to deal with more losses (cody; wolffe)#but he still does regular missions w torrent just under a fancier title #but now because they have an entire fleet they can jailbreak entire battallions at once instead of only being able to grab the stragglers #one of the star destroyers has a mass dechipping facility #preprogrammed so all you have to do is load the next set of clones into the surgery machine thing and press the start button #and then wheel them out and load the next set in while you wait for the first ones to wake up #so basically the clone rebellion is yoinking whole imperial clone legions #meanwhile since the droids were pretty much abandoned #kalanis fleet spent the first few years after the war running around the galaxy grabbing all unattended separatist vehicles #kalani has determined via st-droid logic that #since sidious is the chancellor of the republic (and therefore a traitor)#dooku; grievous; and trench are dead and most of the other separatist leaders were forcibly integrated into the empire #that makes him (the last surviving/active separatist general) the new supreme commander of the separatists #so now he has decided to continue the attack on the republic-which-is-now-the-empire #anyways he has some of the more remote/smaller droid factories up and running in the outer rim #all the clones who dont want to keep fighting get funneled to one of the clone bases via tbb #also rex has created a brand new clone pension fund via stolen imperial credits #because anakin never changed his passwords when he became vader and rex broke into his bank account #kalani has access to most of the separatist funds bc they assumed a tactical droid wouldn't try to steal anything and it was faster that wa #so the clone and droid rebellions are both funded via the empire forgetting to change passwords in the o66-chaos #palpatines going to have a stroke at this point lol #*both* of his supposed-to-be-non-sentient armies are now invading imperial coruscant together
