[edit] Grand Army

In Episode II: Attack of the Clones, in his speech, Palpatine named the Clone Army the "Grand Army of the Republic". For this reason, i moved the Army of the Republic article to this new page. -- Ed Telerionus 29 June 2005 03:24 (UTC)

  • To avoid confusion with the real GAR I have moved it back. --evrik 16:08, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
    • How about Grand Army of the Republic (Star Wars)? Isn't it best that we use the real name on Wikipeida? CaptPicard (talk) 19:19, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Units

there were 250,000 units with an additional million units that were to see action. there is a difference between unit and trooper. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.49.223.229 (talkcontribs).

A Unit has to be at least a Division because the war would have bin over before any other large body of clones would be ready to fight(CIS victory).

[edit] True unit size ?

These trooper numbers aren't the total number of clones, but just the number of clone troopers.


  1. Grand Army—10 systems armies, a total of 3,000,000 troopers, with Supreme Chancellor Palpatine as commander-in-chief.
  2. Systems Army—2 Sector Armies (294,912 troopers) led by a High Jedi General (Jedi High Council member).
  3. Sector Army—4 corps (147,456 troopers) led by a Senior Jedi General (Jedi Master).
  4. Corps—4 legions (36,864 troopers) led by a clone marshal commander and a Jedi General.
  5. Legion/Brigade—4 regiments (9,216 troopers) led by a senior clone commander and a Jedi General.
  6. Regiment—4 battalions (2,304 troopers) led by a clone trooper commander, clone regimental commander, and a Padawan Commander.
  7. Battalion—4 companies (576 troopers) led by a major.
  8. Company—4 platoons (144 troopers) led by a captain.
  9. Platoon—4 squads (36 troopers) led by a lieutenant.
  10. Squad—9 troops led by a sergeant.


In addition to those there are clone sergeants, clone liutenants, clone captains... making the total number much higher.

For example: In battalion at least 661 clones (576 troopers + 64 sergeants + 16 lieutenants + 4 captains + major) ??


  1. Grand Army (3,387,280 clones) — 10 systems armies, with Supreme Chancellor Palpatine as commander-in-chief.

  4. Corps (42,341 clones) — 4 legions led by a clone marshal commander and a Jedi General.

  6. Regiment (2,646 clones) — 4 battalions led by a clone trooper commander, clone regimental commander, and a Padawan Commander.
