Reddit reviews Hard Contact (Star Wars: Republic Commando, Book 1)

If you like this aspect of Star Wars, I highly recommend the Republic Commando Series. It doesn't portray the Jedi in a white knight sort of thing.

They're both books.

Star Wars: Republic Commando Hard Contact


My Little Pony: Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell

[](/dashsmirk "I guess most people can figure out how I know that.")

This game is seriously developed in a series of books called "Republic Commando" and offers not only some cool explanations for the movie, scenes, it goes a long way to discuss the humanity of clone troopers and the way they are treated as expandable bodies (Jedi scum included).

It will tell the story of Omega and Delta squads... Also, developed the mandalore culture, so it´s like win-win, nervod.

But this series of books also got cancelled because of a cartoon made by the name Clone Wars. The books were just too Pacino for the public they wanted...

Oh, that situation in the end? The author was not authorized to develop afterwards (the character was reserved), but it sure gave way more weight to that..

edit: damn, now I´ll have to read it again.

You should read the republic commando series by Karen Traviss
starting with "Hard Contact"
this is a huge part of the story
and the books are great
I've read each one like 5 times!

**edit
It also goes WAY heavily into the black and white nature of light side dark side of the force. It changes the way you think about jedi

I don't know of fanfics, but there is a line of published fiction by Karen Traviss (see here for the first one), which are absolutely amazing. She personalizes the clones so well, and adds a level of backstory to episode 3 that is wonderful.

it was called Hard Contact here is a link

Amazon reviews look pretty good. I think I need to read this book to inform the development of my Trooper on launch!
