The Real Mandalorians: Republic Commando

1. The fact that Lucas would con­sider the word “Man­dalo­rian” obso­lete is the most digust­ing thing I have ever heard. The comic books did an “okay” job of the mop-up between Jaster Mereel being Boba Fett and actu­ally being Jango’s father.

   In both sto­ries, Jaster Mereel is awe­some in every respect.

2. No I don’t think it should be called Man­do­lo­rian Com­man­der, they are Repub­lic Storm Troop­ers or clone troop­ers, much like the ones in Clone Wars, with some cooler gear and all. Now it would be cool if they made a Man­do­lo­rian Com­man­der, but I doubt that will be seen.

3. I agree with the notion of the word Man­dalo­rian being referred to as obse­lete. I do how­ever respect that Lucas actu­ally included another Fett into the new tril­ogy; fur­ther­more, i respect the fact that despite Jango Fett being a not-so impor­tant char­ac­ter in the movies, they still gave him a fight scene.

   Either way, I dont think Man­dalo­rian Com­mando is suf­fi­cient for the game. They are trained by Jango but still there is the feel­ing of the Man­dalo­ri­ans liv­ing through the Clonetroop­ers which is cool. And you have to real­ize they are after all sol­diers for the Republic.

4. Lucas is say­ing the word Man­dalo­rian is obso­lete sim­ply because there are so few elite Man­dalo­rian war­riors left, espe­cially after the death of Jango. My feel­ing is that with the death of Jango the last of the true Man­dalo­rian pride was extin­guished from the Galaxy.

5. why don’t they just name it after what it is? you are a clone trooper com­mando so why don’t they name it that? Clone trooper com­mando… or repub­lic com­mando or somthing like that. So what they are clones ofa guy who was a man­dalo­rian if they are a Man­dalo­rian they are a man­dalo­rian if they are a clone trooper they are a clone trooper. It really doesn’t mat­ter who they were cloned after. THE WORD MANDALORIAN IS NOT OBSELETE IT WILL NEVER BE NOT WHEN IT STRIKES FEAR INTO ALL WHO HEAR IT! Boba Fett is a man­dalo­rian and i saw in a comic he restarted the man­dalo­ri­ans. It was just a comic but i’m will­ing to grasp on to what­ever hope i can. Fur­ther more i believe that Boba IS Jaster Merrell.

6. I see what you mean but im gonna have to dis­agree. Boba Fett is the one who is sup­posed to uphold the legacy of Jaster, Jango said so in Open Sea­sons. With that in mind, Im sure Jango instilled Man­dalo­rian teach­ings on lit­tle Boba. In the Star Wars Tales that came out that was ded­i­cated to Boba, the last issue is about how Boba brings back the Man­dalo­ri­ans. I see what you mean though Andy, and Boba’s Man­dalo­rian traits have never been men­tioned because authors, before the pre­quels, knew so few about the man­dalo­ri­ans. It would have prob­a­bly been unwise for them to really tam­per with that.

   — Jamari Lawson on 02.25.04

7. I think jamari’s right. so many books have been writ­ten after the return of the jedi. if you have read at least one book about fett, itll­prob­a­bly say he came outof the sar­lac pit alive.

   — Ramadas on 02.26.04

8. Boba is not the last man­do­lo­rian. Man­do­lo­rian radiors are still out there AND man­do­lo­ri­ans may be hired to fight in the clonewars.

   — pee-wee on 02.28.04

9. He was a elite sol­dier of the man­dalores defens.
   After the war there was just three of 212 man­dalo­rian sol­diers who sur­vived.
   The leader and the most feard of them Boba fett went away and became a bounty hunter and the two oth­ers went home but their home had been destroyd by the empire and they had forced the peo­ple to work in the mines as slaves, so they started a group of peo­ple who fighted for the right of the mandalores.

   — Craza on 03.02.04

10. Some­one know any­thing about the two man­dalo­rian war­riors which are friends from boba fett? Their names: Fenn Shysa and Tobi Dala
    The story about that 3 guys plays after the clone war or? Also the guy named as Jodo Kast. He is also an man­dalo­rian or?

    — Striker on 03.03.04

11. I don’t know too much about Fenn and Tobi. But I do know that Jodo Kast is not a Man­dalo­rian, he just some­how found the armor and saw it as an oppor­tu­nity to furhter his career as a bounty hunter by copy­ing Boba Fett.

    — Mandalorian Shocktrooper on 03.03.04

12. Craza what are you talk­ing about? Play the game Bounty Hunter or watch Episode II, as those were both DIRECTLY over­seen by Lucas they are the cor­rect source. JANGO Fett NOT BOBA was one of the Man­de­lo­ri­ans that sur­vived the bat­tle. Boba is a clone of Jango. Christ you’d think these peo­ple would pay some attention.

    — Andy on 03.03.04

13. No, they are not Man­dalo­ri­ans so they couldn’t call the game Man­dalo­rian Commandos.

    The wear armor based on Man­dalo­rian armour but not as strong, they were cloned from an adopted war­rior but not trained by him.

    — Darth Garuda on 03.05.04

14. Well i am not going to say i know much about the man­dalo­ri­ans or even pre­tend to. how­ever i am a huge fan of boba fett and i think that they should leave the title as is and if they get enough feed­back they should make another game that is in fact about real man­dalo­ri­ans not some man­dalo­rian look-alikes

    — aj on 03.06.04

15. Yeah, the Madalo­ri­ans are more on the back­burner of every­thing Lucas. Since the Star Wars books, comics, and so forth are bet­ter than the pre­quels any­way, I tend to not even con­sider any­thing in the pre­quels, lol. I hate them so much. No, Repub­li­can Com­mando has noth­ing to do with the Madalo­ri­ans other than they are more than likely, just as clone troop­ers, clones of Jango Fett. I do think that Boba Fett prob­a­bly becomes a Man­dalo­rian, in my opin­ion. But to be hon­est, the front face design of Fett’s hel­met isn’t unique. Look at the Empor­ers guards, clones troop­ers, etc. Just a cool, and smart design (pro­tects eyes w/ good sight, etc

16. I won­der what Aaron thinks about 20 com­ments related to this sub­ject? Sounds like we should take it to the forums.

    — Mandalorian Shocktrooper on 03.08.04

17. Boba is a man­dalo­rian he trains man­dalo­ri­ans in the yuuh­zong vong war and leads then into bat­tle which pos­si­bly makes him the leader of the man­dalo­ri­ans and after the war boba dis­a­pears and becomes a jedi my case is rested

    — Boba Fett on 03.11.04

18. Could some­one fill me in on these Yuuh­zong Vong wars? I’m clue­less as to what they are, prob­a­bly because I haven’t read a Star Wars novel in ages.

    — Andy on 03.11.04

19. Mandy Lore Jaster mereel would have died from old age by the time Boba grew up I read way to much on boba fett and hi adven­tures and Jan­gos lil “sea­sons comic books“
    Boba fett starts up some man­dalo­ri­ans and leads them into bat­tle while the lazy peple “Han leia luke” stand there and go “Is that Boba Fett” and Plus Jango’s armor is Boba’s it would have rusted to a scrap plus in “A new threat” Yag­gabah and Gabor’ah make man­dalo­rian armor for Boba which he uses and Truth uinkown where boba really got his armor

    — Boba Fett on 03.27.04

20. you idiot. jango fett wasn’t even supose to be a man­dalo­rian. Boba was supose to take it up on his own. Besides the man­dalo­ri­ans were a race of humans that existed befor any of the movies were made. Thats why Boba Fett is such a hard ass, he’s kick­ing ass in armor that peo­ple have only seen in muse­ums, they were a dead race for quite some time. George lucus just fucked every­thing up, he’s an idiot and totaly screwed up the story line of fett. just read the bounty hunter wars some time jack ass.

    — peter on 04.14.04

21. Isn’t boba fett actu­ally Jango Fett? Cause in episode 2, Jango talks about mak­ing him­self a clone that would grow at a nor­mal right like a nor­mal human being.

22. draft game

    — tony busuttil on 05.04.04

23. Jango was a man­dalo­rian. He and his men­tor Jaster Meerel were the last of the man­dalo­ri­ans. Boba is a unal­tered clone of Jango, so Boba is also a mandalorian(but not real).

    — Darth Fett on 05.08.04

24. Boba Fett is awsome sweet­ness!! It would be awsome if he fought a Noghri or yebetha or maybe even a Yu zon vong! The yuzon vong would win of couse.

    — Cassus Dijon on 05.11.04

25. Is any­body out there? Let’s start a con­ver­sa­tion or something.

    — luke nyugen on 05.20.04

26. George LUCAS did not fuck ever­thing up you IDIOT if you knew any­thing about BOBA FETT
    you wouldn’t be complaning.

    the story of fett is awesome

    — luke nuygen on 05.20.04

27. hey andy, read the novel series The New Jedi Order. That’ll teach you some­thing about the yuh­zon vong. It’s about the new repub­lic and every­thing is pretty crappy gov­ern­ment wise
    the jedi are get­ting killed a lot because of the yuh­zon vong.

    — luke nuygen on 05.20.04

28. Hiya ppl! I would like to know if some­one of u know of the so called Man­dalo­rian War Prey? If u do please respond here or even bet­ter, mail me!

29. To cor­rect Darth Fetts com­ment on Jaster Mareel and Jango,Jaster Mareel was not one
    of the last man­dalo­ri­ans to live he was aban­doned in bat­tle by Montross,a mandlorian,and was destroyed by the Death Watch an evil cult who were ex-mandalorians who sought outto destroy the mandalorians

    — Mandalorian Way on 05.23.04

30. The Clones them­selves are highly trained to fight and keep fight­ing at any cost. Jango’s true legacy (aside from Boba) is the ARC Troop­ers who hap­pen to be my favorite char­ac­ters. Boba’s the smartest per­son in the galaxy no doubt but as for fight­ting he uses his brain rather then brawn. When it comes to fight­ing he either sneaks around and hits you when you least expect it and not look­ing or if he fights you straight on he usu­ally finds some­thing in the area to use to his advan­tage. Smart yes exel­lent fighter no. The ARC Troop­ers though are both smart and can fight. They are Advanced Recon Clone Troop­ers. I know of only 4 of them who were per­son­ally taken and trained by Jango their whole life. They ONLY take orders form him and no one elese. I espe­su­ally like their turquse color of armor and cape like tasal. Dur­ing the clone wars one locks him­self in one of the cloning cham­bers and sets it to explode rather let the clones fall into the Seper­atist hands via Jango’s orders. Which brings me to another con­tra­versy but that is for another discution.
