Why didn't Palpatine order the construction of Female Clone Troopers?
I am sure there were plenty of bad ass female mercenaries or supermodels out there to use as the basis, since all the clones acquire is genetics and not the original's training or personality.
Because they only wanted to have to CG-clone one actor instead of two for Attack of the Clones.
Justin Harris
That picture still haunts me to this day
Anthony Parker
Well Palpatine wanted sexy femclonetroopers, but if he made his wishes that overt it might have tipped his hand in matters. So he tried to play subtle and for once didn't get his way.
That and he thought Jango was a girl's name.
Xavier Butler
Because, while on average, women are more pain-resistant than men, dealing with menstrual cycles, a lower muscle mass, and little natural testosterone is not productive. Can you work around those things? Sure, but you're wasting money that could be spent on creating/training/equipping more male clone troopers.
Zachary Adams
In the early 2000's there was a completely different set of shoehorns than now.
Jaxson Ross
this.
Carter Reed
Because Palpatine didn't order the clones to begin with at all, let alone possible female ones.
Aaron James
Why didn’t he have anyone besides Jango Fett cloned period? You only need one base, and it seemed Jango was good enough as is.
That said, wasn’t it a plot point in side material that the original stock of dna was going bad? Then if so why not find a replacement donor? Couldn’t have been too bad to find a replacement human male so they can keep the same equipment.
Jose Fisher
Because there are no Femandalorians
Kevin Sullivan
Jango Fett is good enough. No need to search for anyone else, male or female.
John Nelson
If you can mass produce an army out of one dude you know is badass and loyal, why bother with anyone else?
Samuel Campbell
Hmmm... genetics of the most feared Bounty Hunter in the whole galaxy twice over or the genetics of a gender physically incapable of matching the opposite gender?
Logan Scott
This, although there were female stormtroopers in the Empire.
Easton Stewart
>women are more pain-resistant than men pfffttt
Dominic Morgan
>dealing with menstrual cycles, a lower muscle mass, and little natural testosterone is not productive. Ok, if you’re going to use the “because men are stronger then women” argument why not clone Wookies? They’re clearly stronger then humans, you can train them like any other alien. No, only reason why they chose Jango was because of his history, they would’ve chosen a women if they had a similar track record
Luke Kelly
Jango's the best there's ever been. No one -man or woman or freaky bug-person- could compare to his glorious Mandalorian genetic material.
Lincoln Nguyen
You ever try to vacuum wookie hair out of space armor?
Asher Clark
Isn't it implied sheev was more than a bit racist? Especially to Wookiees?
Benjamin Kelly
>why not clone Wookies? >Why would the predominantly humans and then actually human supremacists want alien scum with guns working for them Also, wookies can't into basic.
Isaac Bailey
Because he wanted one sample of best. No woman reached the peak, Jango was best. end of line
Daniel Young
Because Jango was basically the Batman of Starwars. Peak human physique, mandalorian training, jedi hunters have to be smart, etc. Cloning him also copied his mind, slightly changed and programed to create an instant army of elite troops.
Alexander Thomas
>making your clone army all clones of one person I don't see how that could possibly go wrong...
Thomas Diaz
Jango is a mandolorian tho he's not as strong as the wookie but spartan like discipline and critical thinking skill
James Wood
>he thought Jango was a girl's name. Sounds about right.
Easton Allen
Wookies would have cost more. In actuality, they should just hired zabrak. Basically tougher humans but more prevalent due to being used as labor since near the dawn of the republic.
Isaac Nguyen
>humans are the same as bananas
Grayson Anderson
Nice dubs but he wasn’t, his master was alien and so was his second in command Pic related See above, also if he was a supremacist he wouldn’t mind using aliens as cannon fodder >Mandalore fanboys
Logan Kelly
If they gave a fuck about having a diverse range of throwaway foot-soldiers they wouldn't have built an army of fucking clones in the first place.
Elijah Martinez
>nobody in the entire galaxy could engineer a targeted disease
Gavin Harris
>dubs Shit, I meant quads
Sebastian Campbell
Easier to program all the clones for order 66 when you don't need to change the pattern from one batch to the next.
In addition shortly after the clones wars he immediately discontinued the clone program and started using indoctrinated soldiers as he was against using clones in the first place. They were used only because of how he could program them and it was an "army in a can" to match the droid manufacturing speed.
Hunter Ortiz
OP, and some of the rest of you, y'all thinking of this entirely wrong.
Palpatine was behind both the Grand Army of the Republic and their enemy, the Separatist Droid Army. He did not need to think so deeply about optimizing the clone army because the entire war was a setup, an excuse for Palpatine to accumulate power and become Emperor. In the end, he "defeated" the separatists not with clone forces but by sending Vader to assassinate the separatist leaders, and he knew where the separatist leaders were because HE WAS THEIR BOSS. He did not need to diversify his assets, or use the strongest possible candidate. He used Jango because Jango was a mercenary and willing to be discreet about who he is really working for. Sure, Jango was a good specimen, but that was not the point. The clones did not need to be the absolute most powerful army in the universe, they only needed to stretch out the war long enough for Palpatine to accumulate political power, and they needed to be trusted enough by the Jedi that they could execute order 66. That is all.
Jonathan Gutierrez

Dylan Roberts
Women don't understand comraderie the way men do, so the army would have been ineffective, inefficient, and disloyal.

What does this have to do with traditional games?

Ian Parker
>implying you would be able to infect any considerable numbers
stop trying brainlet, you know nothing about pathology, any disease as efficient as you are trying to imply would kill more than just the clones
Evan Foster
>it wouldn't instantly kill all the clones and only the clones so it's not a problem at all
Cooper Davis
Don't insult Mandalorians like that, cloneposter. You hide behind your pansy laser-sword-wielding monks all you want, they can't make up for the fact that your """army""" is literally planned obsolescence destined to be replaced by conscripts who can't shoot for shit.
Bentley Murphy
>making your clone army all clones of one person >I don't see how that could possibly go wrong...
The transition from the clone army to the Stormtrooper corps included the increasing use of non-Fett genetic material and also non-clone enlisted soldiers.
There would not be a disease, because the people the clones were fighting did not use disease, they used robots. In fact, 100% of the separatists' strategy was "throw more robots at it". Palpatine knew who they were fighting because Palpatine was Darth Sidious, and thus in charge of the separatists. He told them what to do, and what he told them to do was make more robots.
The foe Chancellor Palpatine was fighting a war with was... himself! The entire time. So thinking he needed to make the clone army better somehow is silly, the clone army was exactly what they needed to be.
Sebastian Lewis
The pain thing literally only happens during child birth, when women have the biological narcotic equivalent of a black friday sale to compensate for them trying to pass out a human
Jayden Johnson
>addressing one point while ignoring they literally cannot speak basic uh huh
Nicholas Torres
If you are going to the trouble to clone instead of breed soldiers, you probably don't want them to breed. If that is the case, then making a female model of soldier doesn't do anything for you other than require you make twice the amount of clothing based equipment variants, needlessly complicating your soulless clone factory.
Lincoln Rodriguez
There is no need to have female clones, this thread is stupid
James Jackson
Sexist.
Austin Smith
>Don't insult Mandalorians like that, cloneposter. And yet the Mando queen was a disloyal bitch, the Deathwatch Mando girl was a disloyal bitch, and the Rebels Mando girl was rebel scum and therefore a disloyal bitch.
It seems as though honor only exists in mandalorian men.
Justin Wright
Why don't you just go a rape a woman while you're at it, you sexist misogynerd shitlord.
Blake Walker
Opinions, opinions everywhere, doesn’t help that they’re all wrong; I’m sorry buddy, but you’re retarded
John Fisher
I dunno, geneseed or something?
John Nelson
clones weren't bred from camaraderie, they were bred for obedience
rly makes me think
Hunter Murphy
You have to learn to differentiate feminism from fetishes.
Jordan Campbell
>being this faggotery He watched Jurrasic Park retard
Elijah Sanders
>Why didn't Palpatine order the construction of Female Clone Troopers?
Because men cost less maintenance.
Nicholas Bell
>Why didn't Palpatine order the construction of Female Clone Troopers? Why wasn't Palpatine Female?
Because the clones were always meant to be a temporary, disposable army. Having females around could have jeopardized that. Because, y'know. FUCKING.
Kayden Long
my dick is now curious about this as well
Elijah Thomas
>Don't insult mandalorians like that >Post a picture with one in boob plate Space yourself
Leo Cook
Because Palpatine knows that women are inherently less effective at war then men.
Jonathan Johnson
>my dick is now curious about this as well See, Empress Palpatine was no where near the evil asshole her brother Sheev was in canon, nor did she have his tremendous strength with the Force... But unlike canon, she did have SOME, and to Darth Plagueis surprise, was able to turn her brothers' Force Lightning back against him when he used it to barbecue the rest of their family... Haunted by the loss she suffered in her life, Galactic history takes an unexpected turn.
Gavin Kelly
Because he wanted the best mercenary, and it happened to be jango fett
Cooper Roberts
Cause, being a girl would have spoiled George Lucas' TRUE vision for the setting. Setting up a chain called "Papa Palpatine's Pizza"
Robert Gomez
As cool as the clones and the clone wars are for something that was nothing but a pseudoreference in A New Hope, can we just take a second to recognise how insanely stupid the premise is?
>So George what are these clone troopers? >They're actually all the same as big time fan favourite Boba Fett, a whole army of him, but they're raised to be soldiers so there's like a difference between them and him anyway but they're all Boba Fett. Also there is a Boba Fett Sr who is the basis for all these clones.
It's about one level above "By the way, Chewbacca was a friend of Yoda."
Nicholas Nelson
Are you surprised anything coming from the prequels is stupid?
Tyler Edwards
>Cause, being a girl would have spoiled George Lucas' TRUE vision for the setting. Setting up a chain called "Papa Palpatine's Pizza" BUT THEY COULD NEVER COMPETE WITH MEL BROOKS' SPACEBALLS: PIZZA THE HUTT!
Easton Johnson
Becouse men are physically superior to woman? ya know we are stronger and physically built thicker and more robust, IE: men are better for the life of soldiering than woman
Ryder Jones
because women have a harder time developing muscle mass, you may argue but its a scientific truth, so while they could get as buff as men given time and training, it would take longer and therefore be less productive.
Samuel Richardson
because women are inferior fighters both physically and mentally
Jonathan Phillips
>Why didn't Palpatine order the construction of Female Clone Troopers? Because he was after troops, he didn't care about the individuals they were made up out of. If he did he wouldn't have stuck to just one source for his male clones.
Andrew Wright
I know this is bait but the reason Clone Troopers are all male is because Jango Fett is a man and he is the man they cloned.
Man also have testosterone which makes them, on average, tougher stronger and faster. So they make better soldiers, which was the entire purpose of the Clones. To fight kill and die for the Republic.
Leo Jackson
>Jango is a mandolorian He's just a man in Mandalorian armor, not a Mandalorian.
Brody Lee
He askedfor all the clones to have a ''Fit Booty and Saunter''.
The genosians misheard him and thought they were supposed to clone ''that Fett Bountyhunter''
Oliver Hall
In addition to all the other reasons given, consider that the republic is likely just as full of insufferable waifufags as this board.
You think they're going to support a war that involves all their qt clone soldier grrrl waifus getting slaughtered by the thousands by battle droids? It would kill republic morale overnight.
Charles Hall
This, basically. A young pretty girl dies and everyone loses their damn minds. No one gives a shit if a thousand young men die.
Kayden Lewis
not that poster, but you didn't respond to any of his criticisms.
Colton Gray
Why did not he make an army of Wookies?
Ethan Jackson
Wookiees aren't as smart as humans and can't speak any language but their own.
James Kelly
It's even better, they will not question the Drill or the orders, leaves the strategy for the officers
Matthew Martin
Because a woman didn't win the bounty challenge? In the Bounty Hunter games story the whole point of the hunt is to find out who is the strongest hunter in the galaxy that can take out a powerful target and thus be used for clones.
Gavin Smith
didn't they make a virus in the EU that did just that?
Ryan Morales
>That said, wasn’t it a plot point in side material that the original stock of dna was going bad? Then if so why not find a replacement donor? Couldn’t have been too bad to find a replacement human male so they can keep the same equipment. Because he didn't want to keep the clones around. They were as disposable as the droids, with a built in limited lifespan.
Andrew Harris
I'll settle for female Mandalorians over clone troopers.
Samuel Cook
You need intelligence to properly comprehend orders and you can't put all the brains in one soldier or the whole unit would go tits up if they are killed. And the clonetroopers are considered a cut above the rest so a bit of functioning brain cells is required.
Luis Thompson

Angel Ramirez
Kill yourself, NiceDaemonette
Nathaniel Garcia
There's female Mandos, they fit in their culture. There's no female clone troopers, and they couldn't fit in whatever passes for culture among clones.
Xavier Cook
Palpatine was racist when it served him to be so. He had no problems (ab)using people as tools no matter their species, indicating that he likely didn't have any particularly personal beliefs towards that end, but if he could manipulate others into it, then he absolutely would if he needed to.
James Adams
Because he didn't order the creation of clones. That was Sifo Dyas. After the war, the Empire didn't like to use clones because it was pointless to blow a fuckton of money on a relatively small army where each soldier would take 10 years to be deployed, when you could just do mass recruitment on the galaxy's already massive population. Post-Clone Wars, the Empire was focused on policing and oppression, not on actual war footing as it was against the Separatists.
Wyatt Clark
Just saiyan, mayne. Mandos are pretty boring outside of clones. I'd rather go for a nice bezerkin zabrak girl or something.
Cooper Lewis
Mandos are a fascinating bunch, for being a seemingly simple warrior race they have a lot of complexity to their politics, no doubt because of many different author's interpretations. I'm very satisfied with a girl in her armor with clan markings, equipped with a jetpack and blasters.
Lucas Peterson
This many replies to a bait thread?
Come on Veeky Forums, really?
Andrew Rogers
I like Old Republic Mandos, but they got a lil too watered down over the millennia. Though the nice thing about Mandos is they're a pretty inclusive bunch, so you can have your cake and eat it too in the form of a zabrak mando girl painting her face in her new clan's markings and wearing what is hands down some of the best armor in the franchise, no matter the era.
