why did the Empire stop using clones?
>>
Because that would be acknowledging the prequels as cannon.

>>67993681
All clones are Fetts and therefore useless at everything

A. They were getting too CLONEly.

B. They wanted an army all of their CLONE.

C. They kept CLONING it in.

D. Custom response ($5)

>>67993706
They already talked about the clones in IV though.
>>
>>67993681
Too expensive. They had a bunch of nigger slaves they are putting to a better use.

so like Kaminoans(cloners) made some clones to rebel against the empire when the empire became a thing so they(the cloners) got killed by the empire and so no more clones could be made, and the clones who were already made had an accelerated growth compared to regular humans so were pretty old by the time of ANH

dont know if still canon
>>
>>67993880
I actually hope they include that story arc in Rebels at some point.
Right now it's not canon I don't think
>>
>>67993681
doesnt finn's name FN-2187 suggest they still use clones but they clone them from varied templates rather than just jango

Coast and time most likely

The Republic was bankrupting itself to maintain the clone army. It coasts a lot just to make the clone. Then you have to spent ten years feeding, housing, and training it. Once it finally matures it's accelerated aging makes it useful for only half as long as a normal man.

With the Galaxy under its control the Empire could just call upon shit loads of people and just put them through basic and give them a lousy paycheck.

You could probably field a small army for the cost of make like a platoon of clones.

>>67993681
Mostly because

1. Only Kaminoans knew how to make good clones. Empire tried cloning tubes and other stuff but the clones were just terrible.
2. Kamino tried to rebel as the Empire started shafting them on deals
3. Empire decided it was too risky to keep depending on one supplier for all soldiers so they started recruiting.

>>67993681
Camino claimed by rebels

>>67993681
Nobody knows because the original answer isn't canon anymore

You are a retard.

Mostly because a traitorous Moff can raise clones loyal to himself and start a civil war. Instead a massive army largely composed of conscripts is as good as the logistic chain that supports it, so any internal rebellion can easily be quelled once they are cutted off from the Empire. Same thing with the Imperial Navy; they have fighters dangerous only in large numbers and massive ships that need equally large facilities for manteinance. They are litterally chained to Palpatine and his Empire.
