1: Spoils of War
Offered a unique job that includes stealing a valuable war chest from the deceased Count Dooku, the Bad Batch travels to Serenno. But the area is infested with Imperial clone troopers and infiltration will not be easy. Just as they are about to escape with the massive cargo ship, they are shot out of the sky. Hiding in one of its containers will be the only form of escape – if they can survive the crash back on the surface.
2: Ruins of War
Clone Captain Wilco and his troopers are searching for the Bad Batch, knowing they crash-landed in a cargo container in the forests of Serenno. While Hunter and Wrecker scout the city, Tech, Echo, and Omega must decide to either leave the war chest or be captured. Omega is bent on recovering the loot, but soon, escaping even empty-handed is the priority – and using old Separatist tanks and a hermit friend from the forest might be just what they need to get back to their ship.
3: The Solitary Clone
Clone trooper CT-9904 “Crosshair” has been cleared for duty. His first mission: quell the insubordination of Governor Tawni Ames on Desix. Working alongside Clone Commander Cody, Crosshair and the team quickly take out the insurgents. But upon capturing Ames, she claims that Desix was never part of the Republic and pleads that her home be recognized as an independent system. Despite her protests, Crosshair will show his loyalty by calming executing the governor despite Commander Cody’s attempts at a peaceful solution.
4: Faster
After accompanying Cid to Safa Toma, the Bad Batch is surprised at what happens next. Betting on a wreckless droid, TAY-0, Cid finds herself seriously in debt to the dangerous Dowutin, Grini Millegi. Before a fight can start, Omega proposes a third race with the stakes doubled if they lose again. Before the race though, TAY-0 is hit by a speeder and badly damaged. Not to worry, Tech volunteers himself as racer, convinced that using a clever strategy will ensure him the win. The rest of the Bad Batch hopes he is right – if he’s wrong, the whole team will be in serious trouble.
5: Entombed
Traveling with treasure hunter, Phee Genoa, the Bad Batch arrives on Kaldar Trinary in search of an ancient relic hinted at by a strange compass. After landing on the rocky surface, they quickly locate a mountain with a strange entrance. Using the compass to enter, the Bad Batch has no idea that what they are about to find is much more than just an inert treasure, but a dangerous piece of ancient technology.
6: Tribe
Planning to sell forged chain codes on a dangerous space station, the Bad Batch find themselves on a whole new mission when Omega befriends an enslaved Wookiee aboard the station. Quickly, an all-out battle erupts between the buyers and Omega as she tries to free her new friend. Quickly escaping, the Bad Batch learns that they’ve rescued Gungi – a Jedi who had survived Order 66 and was attempting to return to his homeworld of Kashyyyk. They take him home, only to find that deadly huntering Trandoshans are terrorizing Gungi’s fellow friends. It will take a Jedi, ex-Republic clones and guerrilla warfare if they are to defeat the ruthless Trandoshans.
7: The Clone Conspiracy
With the end of the war, clone troopers are free from the bloodshed and carnage of battle. But with its end, their purpose is also gone. On Coruscant, clone troopers struggle as they try to assimilate to ‘normal life’ when all they’ve ever known is the life of a soldier. In a startling realization, Pantoran senator, Riyo Chuchi determines that the clones also have no representation in the Senate. To make matters worse, the clones are experiencing advanced aging, and no one from the Empire seems to care about their future. As Chuchi attempts to compromise with Admiral Rampart to protect the clones, the plot thickens when she realizes that someone is lying about how the cloning facilities on Kamino were destroyed a few months prior.
8: Truth and Consequences
Along with the other members of the Bad Batch, Omega travels to visit the massive city planet of Coruscant for the first time in her life. There, she and her team learn that clone Captain Rex needs their help to protect Senator Riyo Chuchi who is on the tracks of uncovering a deadly plot that someone tried to hide. But while Riyo works to discover the truth, Imperial Admiral Rampart is on the verge of approval by the Senate for his Defense Recruitment Bill that would allow the Empire to continue building its military and usher terror and fear throughout the galaxy. Chuchi almost has the evidence she needs to reveal Rampart as the traitor he is – but it will take the talent of Bad Batch to infiltrate a star destroyer and obtain the evidence they need – and time is almost out
9: The Crossing
In need of more money, the Bad Batch travels to an old mine on a desert planet that Cid purchased in hopes of finding the valuable mineral, ipsium. Precious due to its highly explosive properties, the team is disappointed at first to find the mine practically empty of the mineral. Making matters worse, someone steals the Marauder while they’re inside the mine, causing them to be stranded. Omega, still distraught that Echo left them to work with Rex, wanders off and stumbles on a huge hidden supply of ipsium. Before they can mine it though, she falls down a cavern, and the team must leave to save her and escape. Still stranded, their mission changes: they must hunt down their ship and reclaim it before their supplies run out completely.
10: Retrieval
Hunter, Tech, Omega and Wrecker have located their stolen ship at old, run-down spaceport. There, they discover a large group of kids working for a selfish ring-leader, Mokko, mining for ipsium to survive. But getting to their ship is the easy problem – the hard part is getting the hyperdrive back and shutting off the ray shields to escape. As the team works to infiltrate the station, they’ll have to place their trust in the young thief that stole their ship. One slip up could mean capture and termination.
11: Metamorphosis
On another money-making mission for Ciddarin Scaleback, the Bad Batch tracks down a crashed Imperial vessel on a forest planet. After entering the vessel and restoring power though, instead of finding valuables to make profit, the team is assaulted by a strange beast with a mouth full of teeth and that grows stronger and larger the more they hit it with their blasters. Escaping from the crashed ship, the creature heads to a nearby village and begins growing quickly as it feeds on the village’s power grid. The Empire’s strange creation appears invincible – and the Bad Batch must save an entire village before it’s too late.
12: The Outpost
Crosshair is assigned to a snowy outpost on the icy planet of Barton IV. But after arriving with his lieutenant and a contingent of clones, he quickly realizes something is amiss. Only a few clones originally stationed there remain, and they are in severe disrepair. Their commander, Mayday, tells Crosshair that they are frequently attacked by raiders and have long been neglected by the Empire. But Crosshair’s new Lieutenant Nolan makes it clear he doesn’t care about the ‘clones’ and sends Mayday and Crosshair to deal with the raiders. Crosshair’s faith in the Empire is fading – and with it, his desire to blindly follow orders.
13: Pabu
After meeting up with artifact hunter, Phee Genoa, Cid contacts the Bad Batch to incentivize them to come back and work for her since she could tell their secret to the Empire. Frustrated, they decide to follow Genoa to hidden sanctuary of a planet called Pabu instead and take a break from all of the fighting. There, the team finds for the first time the real meaning peace. A luscious island paradise with people free to relax and live in harmony, hidden from the Empire, it is a dream come true. But unbeknownst to them, a tsunami is approaching, and their peace is just the calm before the storm.
14: Tipping Point
After shooting his commanding lieutenant, Crosshair finds himself imprisoned on a strange planet and staring face-to-face with a strange Imperial scientist named Dr. Hemlock. Even more odd, is the doctor’s request: tell him how to find the Bad Batch, and more particularly – Omega. But Crosshair is disillusioned with the Empire – and now escape is his only wish. Meanwhile, Echo works with Rex to rescue imprisoned clone troopers and figure out why the Empire is detaining them. Echo will have to locate Bad Batch and requests Tech’s abilities at decription if they are to find out the answer.
15: The Summit
After receiving a signal from Crosshair regarding Plan 88, Hunter, Tech, Wrecker and Omega realize serious danger is coming. In hopes of finding Crosshair to get answers, they follow a lead to Eriadu and attempt to infiltrate the base at Tarkin’s summit. Halfway through the operation though, they discover that the radical Partisan, Saw Gererra is leading his own covert operation to bomb the facility and is not interested in waiting for Bad Batch to get the answers they need before setting off the detonators. The explosion sabotages Bad Batch’s mission – and with it, their chance of escape.
16: Plan 99
In the skies of Eriadu, the Bad Batch are trapped in a cable car, hanging by a thread. V-wing starfighters called in by Tarkin are about to shoot them out of the sky and all hope feels lost. In a heroic act of sacrifice, Tech drops from the car plummeting into the vast crevasse, removing his weight and allowing the team’s car to reengage the gears and escape. Later, grieving back at Cid’s parlor on Ord Mantell though, Hunter, Wrecker and Omega quickly find that someone has betrayed them – for them Empire has already found them. And Dr. Hemlock will stop at nothing to capture Omega and use her as leverage to force Nala Se to finish his scientific operations.
