What If Luke Skywalker JOINED the Imperial Academy (Star Wars What Ifs)



What would’ve happened if Luke Skywalker joined the ranks of the Empire? Would he have excelled into stardom or would he encounter his father and learn the ways of the force?

  1. No way he would have been promoted to vice admiral in that amount of time. Especially without any independent command, galaxy changing victory or the permission the emperor. Thrawn would of been called into the admiralty board for over stepping his authority. He would have to face the emperor to make sure he was still loyal. Their would have been a lot of jealousy among the officers and assassination attempts to this new threat.

  2. Pente Patrol Star Wars i have a idea for a video i don't have any storyline for it maybe you could figure something out but the idea is what if mace windew found luke and Leia and trained them in the light a d dark sides of the force

  3. Ok I'm still wondering when Biggs will defect to the Rebellion, since he only joined the Academy to train, and always planned to defect ASAP. He always had contacts in the Rebellion through Mos Eisley.

  4. -What if in SWTOR, Ochos of Oblivion didn’t happen and Vitiate/Valkrion return around the movies?(Could be in the same vain of the Darth JarJar fic you did.)
    -What if The Rule of Two was abolished after the Clone Wars?
    -What if the Sith Empire returned during the Galactic Civil War instead of the Clone Wars?
    -What if Vader raised BOTH and trained of his Kids?
    -What if Anakin saved Mace Windu and stayed in the light during Order 66?
    -What if Thrawn was present during the Original Trilogy?
    -What if Anakin/Vader was a double agent and played the long game like your Rebel Thrawn fic?
    -What if Maul was found by the Jedi before Sidious?
    -What if Vader,Thrawn and Several Imperials started an Imperial Rebellion separate from the Rebels,which really took off around the DS1 destruction?
    -What if Vader never burned on Mustafar?
    -What if Grevious was a Republic General but still hated the Jedi?
    -What if Starkiller lived at the end of TFU1 and later trained the Skywalker Twins?
    -What if Lord Starkiller lived at the end of TFU1 dark side ending and ignoring the dlc, basically replacing Vader?

  5. "Emperor Thrawn"
    Oh god he sounds terrifying
    Thrawn as an admiral could decimate entire fleets with just his 1 fleet
    Just imagine what he could do with the whole empire at his disposal

  6. 1:19:38 I agree, with a lot; this point of view. it just seems that from our point of view, in these stories, the Force is always throwing the living, curveballs, and the darker the curvier. This seems more logical, rational based. First of all, wouldn't Vader, having met his son and gained his confidence, their love blossoming, as father and son, so do their plans, their future seems bright, but, but the Dark side, and Anakin's attachments , as we've seen are deadly, and ruinous to his life, and those He loves. It's pretty much given that the more control one tries to assert over the Dark side, the less One has control over, or vision of the outcome. I don't think Anakin was planning on becoming an itchy half machine, hated and feared throughout the Galaxy. I don't think He had in mind what we see. Did you ever wonder what it was like standing next to him, and what He smelled like? I bet He smelled like human excrement, and machine oil, like an invalid, that no one comes to console. there is no living being caring over his wounds, and his vulnerable condition, but a machine….and One guy who is just using Him, and they each are totally aware of the situation.
    If Vader was wise, which I believe He was, then He'd know to keep any body who possibly have an emotional hold over the relationship, away .

    I know there is an immense amount of literature about the star wars universe. I have read next to nothing, Yet I love it all completely. Vader, Luke, and All of them, each, give us someone with whom we can relate, to compare, or just adore, despite how unseemly it seems. I relate to Vader, from the inside out. I think there are many many of us who do. I know I am not alone in this. I couldn't be. It's funny, but in the beginning, the rebels were the Heros of this story. Nowadays, less so. yet this too is true, from the beginning, Vader was always the Hero, tell me this isn't true. He is the Hero, who Learns

  7. Luke would only have joined the emperial fleet, to get the training. He hated the empire. Soon after his graduation, he would have defected to the rebels, as his friend Biggs did.

  8. Why in every Star Wars video with vader they have to bring up Ashoka and her crew they are not cannon if it’s about Luke joining the academy forget Ashoka and her friends this should be separate from her and the tv show

  9. Love that Luke doesn’t become a Acolyte and remains a part of the Empire as a mastermind. It’s often forgotten that the Skywalker’s are brilliant and cunning.

    Really love how the Empire is in a decent or better place with no Sith or Jedi to threaten it. One of the best timelines for the Empire.

    The Empire could’ve lasted longer with Palpatine and Tarkin and their followers.

  10. Love your story. But I do have one gripe. Dagobah did not radiate in the lightside of the force. It radiated with the DARK side of the force.
    That is why Yoda went there to cloak himself from the Empire and its agents. It radiated so strongly with the dark side of the force that (I believe it was a dark side nexus.)
    That is why Luke in the original trilogy had an easier rime of resisting the Dark side after his training with Master Yoda because he was already used to focusing on the light.

  11. I absolutely love this channel the what ifs are so professionally done it's obvious you love this franchise just as much as us and you want to see it thrive and that makes me really happy because of how toxic this fandom has become recently keep up the good work and May the force be with you

  12. One issue with this episode. It doesn’t really make sense that Palpatine would just drop the Death Star plans especially since I’m pretty sure building the DS was always a plan of Palpatine since even before the CWs.

    He isn’t going to drop the plans Willy nilly especially not because of some new 18 year old boy said that he could stick it into a Star Destroyer lol.

    Other than that amazing What if as always.

    Video idea: What if Maul turned good during the Clone wars or Rebels?

  13. I'm sorry what. Leia killed Darth Vader that easily!? Not even Jedi Master Luke was able to take him out without a struggle. and even then Vader threw the fight. I liked most of the story up until the ending. Darth freggin Vader would have won that fight against Leia no question.

    Does anyone remember what happened to Obi-Wan after he got his leg cut by Duku? He fell to the floor and couldn't fight anymore. Leia's injury sounded a lost worse than a little scratch, she would have lost.
