Userserrinatanois choosing to be " delusional " by take a firm stand it may be a ship that happens to appear like theMarauder , but the argument is n’t too delusional at all . It ’s quite possible this could be a fake - out byThe Bad Batchteam , who ’s certainly been make love to recreate around with the fanbase in good fun .

The Marauder’s Destruction Hints At Clone Force 99’s Future
The death of a ship is not a conclusion that ’s made lightly , as evidenced by theRazor CrestinThe Mandalorian . Din Djarin losing his ship was meant to symbolise that his sprightliness of bounty hunting was also being left behind , as he acquired his newNaboo N-1 starfighterlater on with a perfect place for his adopted son to bring together him . The same survive for theMarauder;the destruction of the ship they ’ve fly ever since the Clone Wars probably imply that Clone Force 99 will be moving on from their path of life as soldiersinto something different .
Life on Pabu inThe Bad Batchseason 2 show that Clone Force 99 can , and likely want to , lie low once they have Omega and Crosshair back , andtheMarauder ’s destruction could be foreshadowing this determination . It also , however , could be a signal that Clone Force 99 is heading in a newfangled direction with their battle , dedicating their lives to the secretly - blooming rebel campaign or perhaps even persist on the streamlet to keep Z safe from the Empire . Either way , The Bad Batchhas surely changed the circumstances of its characters forever with this monumental twist andThe Mandalorianparallel .
