"The General" Episode Guide | The Clone Wars – Season 4, Episode 8

Captain Rex and General Krell in The Clone Wars

"The path of ignorance is guided by fear."

General Krell orders Captain Rex and the clone troopers of the 501st Legion to conquer a heavily fortified Umbaran airbase, and will not accept anything less than victory. It is an almost certain suicide mission, unless the clones can use their ingenuity to defeat their new enemy.

  • Clone Captain Rex

    default

    Clone Captain Rex

    Rex once served the Republic on the frontlines during the Clone Wars, taking orders from Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano as first a captain and later a commander. He viewed military service as an honor, and his loyalty to the Republic and his Jedi Generals was absolute. But when Order 66 was executed, it was Ahsoka who helped to free Rex from the programming of his inhibitor chip. At the dawn of the Empire, Rex has escaped with his life but is considered killed-in-action in the eyes of the new regime. That allows him to operate in the shadows and help any clone brothers who remain separate from the Imperial ranks.

  • General Pong Krell

    default

    General Pong Krell

    This Besalisk Jedi is all about getting results and, indeed, his battlefield record lists many key victories in the Clone Wars. He has an unshakable confidence in his methods, and he will brook no insubordination among his charges. In personal combat, he can be ferocious -- his giant arms carry two double-ended lightsabers, making him extremely dangerous in close quarters. Pong Krell's reputation as a successful general is well known but so is the fact that the casualty rates of the clone troopers under his command are the highest.

  • ARC Trooper Fives

    default

    ARC Trooper Fives

    Also known as CT-27-5555, Fives trained with Domino Squad on Kamino before being shipped out to the Rishi Moon listening outpost. He survived the Separatist attack on the station there, and was transferred to the 501st Legion alongside his squadmate and fellow survivor, Echo. Fives and Echo were promoted to ARC trooper status after the defense of Kamino from Separatist invaders. He and Echo were later assigned with the difficult mission of freeing Republic prisoners from the daunting Citadel prison installation on Lola Sayu. He and Echo were later part of a mission to free Republic prisoners from the Separatist prison called the Citadel. Echo fell in battle, leaving Fives as Domino Squad’s sole survivor. Fives accompanied the clone trooper Tup to Kamino for medical testing, where he discovered a terrifying secret about the clones’ origins and ultimate purpose.

  • Clone Trooper Hardcase

    default

    Clone Trooper Hardcase

    "Let me at 'em!" was Hardcase's typical reaction when presented with enemy forces, no matter how overwhelming the odds. Legend has it that his growth chamber sprung a leak during his formation on Kamino, resulting in his characteristic, somewhat aberrant, but nonetheless useful hyperactivity. When the blaster bolts fly, Hardcase loses all sense of self-preservation and returns fire with zeal, determined to wipe out the enemy with repeated sweeps of his rotary laser cannon.

  • Umbaran Crawler Tank

    default

    Umbaran Crawler Tank

    Also known as an Impeding Assault Tank (IAT), the Umbaran crawler tank is a horrifying mechanical monster created by the advanced technology of the Umbaran people. The crawler tank is armed with blaster cannons, shield generators, and designed to have multiple redundancies to cope for heavy damage.

  • Umbaran MHC

    default

    Umbaran MHC

    During the Republic campaign to secure Umbara, the natives of the shadowy world unleashed all manner of previously unseen advanced technology against the clone trooper forces. The Umbaran MHC -- mobile heavy cannon -- is a titanic juggernaut built atop six powerful, ground-shaking legs. The dome-shaped body of the spider-like tank is heavily armored, able to withstand anti-armor infantry rockets. Mounted atop the dome on an articulated arm is a powerful electromagnetic plasma cannon. The monstrous MHC has almost no weaknesses.
