ON CT NUMBERS

Okay so, for research, I went looking up Clones.

And I came across "Bravo Squad", which was the Cadet Squad that graduated from cadets before Domino Squad did, in the Clone Wars episode "Cadets".

They were labeled by their CT numbers.

Now this is interesting in comparison to Domino Squad, who's numbers were:

CT-782 "Hevy" - Who we know later exploded on the Rishi Moon.

CT-00-2010 "Droidbait" - Who died off screen to Droids.

CT-4040 - "Cutup" - Who got ate by a Rishi Eel

CT-27-5555 - "Fives"

CT-21-0409 - "Echo"

Now, Echo is interesting in that he has two. He's been known as CT-0409 and CT-1409.

Was there a mistake? Prolly, but we can reconcile that easy--in that, we don't know what exactly a CT number is.

If it a serial number, a way to systematically label clones, and there are thousands to millions of Clones, then it would make sense to have a much longer serial number--but only immediately identify by part of that number for ease.

So Echo would actually be "CT-21-0408-1409".

( I will still say that its still too short, so I'd go that its actually longer than that--but this is what we have of it. Its a bit like IP Addresses, really. )

But what about that double digit in front?

Well, we look back at Bravo Squad from Cadets.

CT-27-3555

CT-66-3232

CT-66-3233

CT-66-3238

I'd say, judging by those numbers, that the double-digit indicates the Batch you were apart of.

(Writing wise, its prolly just ease to label a clone character and go, cos they did a lot of that in TCWs--but we can still have fun with what we have)

Like, take those cloning pillar-towers we see all the clone babies in, and label a set with a universal number, and that's a batch.

If we go by Legends, clones came out in batches of 32. Mesh that with Clone Wars Canon--and you could say they came out in batches of 32, but are later separated into Batch-Squads of 4 or 5 or 6 (Remember the Youth Brigade in the Boba Arc of TCWs? Like that)

It would make sense to produce a batch squad that has trained all their lives, to ensure perfect unit cohesion.

And Domino Squad either has no batch-number revealed, or come from different batches entirely.

More than likely, they were odd ones out of their batches, maybe it was a failure or something, maybe it was simply being the extra, maybe it was an attitude problem--but we could say that they were placed in Domino Squad, away from their original Batch-Squads, to see if they'd work together--and they conflicted a lot, because they didn't grow up with each other and lack that "Perfect Unit Cohesion".

( Oh they prolly could have worked together fine with training and time--but they didn't have that, nor did they have a good trainer )

So anyway.

Echo would be from Batch-21. Droidbait is from a Batch-00 (He's less likely to be the oldest, and more likely to just be in the right line on the right clone tree-pillar), and Fives is from Batch-27. (We don't know Cutup or Hevy's)

...

But if you notice in my Bravo Squad list, there's a CT-27-3555.

Judging by the fact that he's surrounded by Batch-66s... that's probably one of Fives' original batchmates. Based on his Batch Number and his CT Number.

And as far as we know, his old batchmate is out there...

Somewhere...

downsides of being super ill for a few days are being ill, plus sides are i finally sat down and watched the 2003 clone wars cartoon!

Got inspired, made something, hope you enjoy.

Pretty accurate if I do say so myself.

[clonemmunism]

Everytime i read an AU where the war ends and the clones get rights and everything i cant help but wonder how they would dress.

You have these guys who have literally NEVER had to dress themselves. There were always uniforms and they have primarily been around clones and jedi and then the war is over and they just have to start?? Wearing normal clothes??

I feel like this scenario would end in some of the most horrendous outfits the galaxy has ever seen. Just millions of very very badly dressed men.
