Grogu ruining the reputation of Praetorian Guards to the point that when Snokes hires them, he is like: "I heard you were defeated by a baby." and they are like: "It was a 50 years old man!"

HOW TO PICK UP AN ALIEN SPOUSE ON DEEP SPACE 9 (from a regular human who was just doing regular human things)

Y/N and her group are tipsy from partying(theyre smiling and giggling) and are heading back to their ship: They see a group of men walking pass them.

Y/N: Hey you with the SEXY shoulder pads,ridges & pointed ears?

The group turns to look at the gaggle of females. Theyre surprised at being “hit-on”

Y/N realizes who she just catcalled!Its the Romulan group of Senators (Vreenak,Letant,Koval,Parem & Hiren w/their guards) She points at the one in the Middle of the group!

Y/N: “Forget diplomacy baby...let's drink some Romulan Ale and cross into each other's neutral zones!”(suggestively smirks at him) Wadda ya say?

Letant: (starts grinning at y/n)Im amenable to that & “ill even drop my cloaking device so you can see my warbird” tonight or anytime you want?!

The human females are surprised & shocked. The Romulans have varying reactions at Letants response(Vreenak smirks, Koval & Hiren facepalms & Parem is just bug eyed. Centurion guards have the I dont get paid enough for this looks)

Everyones eyebrows are up their hairlines

Y/N:Uhmm Okay?

Letant: (Heads over to Y/N) “You know human, my forehead's not the only thing with ridges on it”

Y/N: What?????

Letant: And “tonight im going to boldly go where no Romulan has ever gone before”w/you. (Leers at Y/N)

Y/N:(Blushes so hard then starts laughing!)Youre one smooth Romulan. “Darling you can violate my prime directive any day”.

Grabs Letant and leaves the group!

——The next day——

Praetor Hiren receives a comm message from Letant:

Do you think the reason Paz chose to stay behind was because he took one glance and just knew he won't fit on that small ass hole Bo-Katan made on the door?

Also, fuck the Praetorian guards. I'm happy they got shredded on the last jedi.

Hope they get shredded again.

To celebrate finishing another paint job, I thought I'd had a pint 🍺

This is The Trooper, Eddie from Zombicide and Iron Maiden + their beer.

I think I'll be using this little Chap in my Praetorian Guard army as a company standard bearer.

I had a chat with my brother about the fight with the night troopers in ahsoka and he pointed something out to me

It's really stupid how the characters just avoid dismembering and/or decapitating the troopers, because that's how you're supposed to stop zombies, you go for the heads and/or render them immobile

"Ha ha zombie! I slashed you across the chest! What're you gonna do now? OW! FUCK! THEY'RE BITING ME!"

It's pretty obvious that going forward all disposable minion bad guys in SW will have to be droids because disney won't let up on their "no cutting people up" internal rule, because apparently we can't even hack apart the undead, but what's the point of zombies if you can't dismember them without a thought? Zombies remove the ethical concerns of mass slaughtering bad guy minions

Y'know say what you will about it, but Rey and Kylo vs the Praetorian guards actually felt brutal in the way lightsaber combat should be, people got thrown in an electric shredder, the top half of one guy's head was cut off, throats were slit, a lightsaber was shoved into someone's face, and when Rey/Kylo stabbed a guy they really drove the saber in, like rewatch it, you clearly see them putting effort to drive their sabers through the guards

#wooloo-writes #wooloo writes #star wars #sw #anti disney #anti ahsoka #ahsoka critical #lightsabers #back in my day lightsaber hacked people to pieces #and that's exactly how we played with the toys as kids #we ran around pretending we were cutting people into quarters #zombies #night troopers #ahsoka series #ahsoka show #the last jedi #praetorian guard #rey #rey skywalker #kylo ren #rey and kylo vs the guards was the last time lightsabers felt like lightsabers

The Rise and Fall of The Praetorian Guard

THE PRAETORIAN GUARD WERE AN ELITE UNIT WITHIN THE IMPERIAL ARMY, SERVING PRIMARILY AS PERSONAL PROTECTORS AND INTELLIGENCE OPERATIVES FOR THE ROMAN EMPERORS.

The roots of the guard can be found during the Roman Republic, when soldiers served as protectors for Roman generals and important figures, or as elite guards for military praetors.

High-ranked generals with imperium held public office by serving as a magistrate or promagistrate. They were assigned a civil servant, lictors, to serve as an attendant and bodyguard. Where no personal bodyguard was assigned, senior field officers safeguarded themselves with temporary bodyguard units of selected soldiers.

Around 40 BC, Octavian, who would later become Emperor Caesar Augustus, installed praetorians within the pomerium (a religious boundary around the city of Rome), the first example of troops being permanently garrisoned in Rome proper.

Members of the guard accompanied Augustus on active campaigns, protecting the civic administrations and rule of law. At camp, the cohors praetoria (a cohort of praetorians guarding the commander), were posted near the praetorium, the tent of the commander, which the guard is believed to be named after.

After the construction of Rome’s Praetorian camp known as the Castra Praetoria around 23 BC, their role extended to escorting the emperor and the members of the imperial family, and to serve as a policing force during times of riot.

According to the Roman historian and politician, Tacitus, the guard around this time numbered nine Praetorian cohorts (4500 men, the equivalent of a legion), however, an inscription from near the end of Augustus’s rule suggests that their numbers were briefly increased to twelve.

The Praetorian Guard, like all legionaries, shared similar insignia, mainly on their shields. Praetorian Guard shields included wings and thunderbolts, referring to Jupiter, and also uniquely included scorpions, stars and crescents.

The first military engagement of the Praetorian Guard took place during the mutinies of Pannonia and the mutinies of Germania. Drusus Julius Caesar, son of Tiberius, accompanied by two Praetorian cohorts, the Praetorian Cavalry, and Imperial German Bodyguards, suppressed the mutinies of Pannonia. Germanicus, later known as Germanicus Julius Caesar, led a force of legions and detachments of the Praetorian Guard in a two-year campaign in Germania against the uprising.

In the three centuries that followed, the guard influenced imperial politics by overthrowing emperors and proclaiming the successor. Members of the guard were also directly involved in the assassination of emperors, such as: Aurelian, Balbinus, Caligula, Caracalla, Commodus, Elagabalus, Galba, Pupienus, Pertinax, Philip II, and Probus.

In AD 305, Diocletian and Maximian abdicated, and the former Caesares, Constantius and Galerius became Augusti. Although two sons of emperors, Constantine I and Maxentius were eligible, they were passed over for a new tetrarchy, and Valerius Severus and Maximinus Daza were appointed Caesars.

Severus planned to disband the Praetorian Guard on the orders of Galerius, resulting in the guard giving their allegiance to Maxentius and proclaiming him emperor. By AD 312, Constantine I marched on Rome with a force of 40,000 soldiers to eliminate Maxentius, facing off against an army that encompassed the bulk of the Praetorian Guard garrisoned in Rome at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge on the River Tiber.

Contemporary accounts record Maxentius’s forces being pushed back against the river and retreating across the bridge. The weight of soldiers fleeing caused the bridge to collapse, stranding elements of the guard on the northern bank of the river who were either killed or taken prisoner.

Lucius Caecilius Firmianus, a Christian author and advisor to Constantine recorded the events: “The bridge in his rear was broken down. At sight of that the battle grew hotter. The hand of the Lord prevailed, and the forces of Maxentius were routed. He fled towards the broken bridge; but the multitude pressing on him, he was driven headlong into the Tiber [drowned].”

Maxentius’ body was fished out of the Tiber and decapitated, and his head was paraded through the streets of Rome. Supporters of Maxentius were eliminated and the Praetorian Guard and Imperial Horse Guard were disbanded. The remaining guard were sent in exile to the corners of the empire, and the Castra Praetoria was dismantled in a grand gesture that marked the end of the Praetorians.
