The Return of the Mandalorians

The Keeper of the Jedi Archives has entered a new holorecord. Continuing his investigation, Master Gnost-Dural delves deeper into the history of the galaxy after discovering that the blockade that Hylo Visz helped end was a result of the actions of the new Mandalore.

BTC 8 – During a Republic resurgence in the Great War, a bold young warrior rose to fame in the Gladiatorial arenas on Geonosis. Adopting the ancient and infamous title of Mandalore, this young leader amassed an army of Mandalorian mercenaries and bounty hunters. The new Mandalore led his forces to form a blockade and challenge the Jedi Order, effectively turning the tide of the war back in the Sith Empire’s favor.

Watch the third Timeline holorecord, The Return of the Mandalorians, narrated by actor Lance Henriksen.

ok i get it so in the end when he says some mandalorians decided to follow there own paths (paraphrased) the mandalorian is talking to two REPUBLIC solders. does any one else think so look at the video again its when the cameria zooms back out the two people on the right change

WOOOT :D :D

The Mandalorians are a tribe which almost exclusively consists of humans. It isn't a race or a class really, it's a religion basically. Unless they provide the option to choose your background or something for merc or bounty hunter class, I don't think Mandalorian will be an option.

i'm glad mandalore is back! StarWars has always been about Jedi and the Sith but ignore the smallest details that ordinary people play. I can't wait to be a mandalorian or a bountyhunter! ill prove you don't need a lightsaber to kill the jedi or a sith!!!!!!!!

Sat, 07/25/2009 - 06:45

now one thing i really hope for is straight up cannon mandalorians with language and culture such as insted of saying hello they say Su'coy type of thing that would be great

Mon, 07/20/2009 - 10:26

i hope my republic trooper can be a mandalorian. itd be great if he was raised as any other human within the republic, its just his race and origin was a Mandalorian. i think individual character storytelling is extremely important. i would like to think my character could be mandalorian, but act like any other human would as a republic elite commando.

if you can be a mandalorians i am going to evil

Sat, 07/18/2009 - 04:01

It shows a trandoshan. Woot!

Hopefully Mandalorians are a faction both Republic and Sith classes can join into. After all, they are a mercenary faction. Sure they have their overall allegiance to the Sith, but as quoted from the video, "they are not like the sith." I doubt this is going to be a class because it would make no rational sense to include them as such. Mandalorians are both a mixture of races and culture.

Fri, 07/17/2009 - 04:59

I bet the Mandalorian culture will be a third power that is completely NPC and able to fight both Empire and Republic cultures. That way you can have some newbie missions that don't involve just collecting 25 animal parts etc.
May the flaming begin;)

hope it'll be a new class...

awesome clip, good work

Tue, 07/07/2009 - 22:01

another great report and I can't wait for the next one

Tue, 07/07/2009 - 04:58

Its a race/culture, not a class. If they are a class all on thier own ill be annoyed at devs

Mon, 07/06/2009 - 09:09

Awsome! So i take it that mandalorians are gonna be a playable race which would be great because they would fit right into the bountyhunter class.

Sun, 07/05/2009 - 17:19

Nice story. Can't wait for more.

Sun, 07/05/2009 - 09:59

I love a well narrated exposition. :D

Gift.

don't bother trying to decipher the sith code in the opening scenes because all it says is:
Searching Records
Records Located
Booting Sequence
Boot Initiated
Archive Loaded
Data Located
Data Loaded
Sequence Booted
Tython Archive
Record Retrieved
Sequence Initiated
File Restored
Archive Loaded
didn't bother with rest, thought maybe there would be a hidden sentence within the words.
btw good video, Mandalorians armour is awesome.

"Adopting the ancient and infamous title of Mandalore, this young leader amassed an army of Mandalorian mercenaries and bounty hunters."

Sweet! mercenary class for the Sith ;)

 
Sat, 07/04/2009 - 21:08

bounty hunters are mercenaries

Sat, 07/04/2009 - 08:39

Great story, keep em' coming!

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 22:45

It is not a class or they would have showed it, it is race may be.

 
Sun, 07/05/2009 - 23:26

All the Contraversy and Media and Updates,I think they will make it a Class,why does everyone say It wont' be a Class,ya say that when you want it to be and,people don't keep saying it won't be,Ugh........

 
Sat, 07/04/2009 - 14:57

I'm pretty sure that in one of the Dev diaries or interviews they say that there will be no mandalorian class or race to choose, but they will be in the game, but not a playable character.

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 20:55

The thing to remember is that Mandalorians are a "race" or "culture"...not a class...some are bounty hunters...others are warriors...

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 19:40

culture kinda reminds me of Sparta and the beginning of 300 :) For me dont' see a problem with mando's being a playable class.

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 19:05

I am at odds with this.I love mando's this I do.. however they shouldn't be making it a class all by itself. to me it was one of the small problems I had in swg. where b/h was a class in itself. I don't think that it should be. why couldn't a mando be a b/h or work for the empire or be a smuggler. or why couldn't a jedi be a bounty hunter. now I understand about order and ranking in the jedi, even sith. but hell. I don't think in the sith all your things were taken care of like the jedi who had given up on material things. I am just saying mando's aren't a class. and if they are going to be one isn't it going to be somewhat like either a commando or b/h. mando's are a race. not a class.

 
Fri, 07/03/2009 - 21:28

Mandolorians are not a class, bounty hunters are. If anything I would say a branch of the BH class would let you join the Mandolorian faction.

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 18:30

Brilliant! Simply brilliant!

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 18:25

Awesome video. This videos are just the thing we need to prepare for the games launch. Ive never seen such story depth and attention to character detail in a game that has not been even launched yet.

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 17:58

excellent vids but why does mandalore not have the proper mandalore helmet but was a sweet vid

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 17:35

doesn't make seance? Mandalorines are Mercs now. After the Jedi War they went into hiding on that planet in KOTOR 2?

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 16:29

mandalorians =/= bounty hunters
the BHs serve the sith,
but this doesn't mean the mandalorians serve the sith too

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 16:25

Nice Vid!

So....I guess Mandalorian Warrior might be a playable class!

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 16:14

Seems like the Mandalorians are not linked with the Sith and the blockade was just so they could get in a fight with the Jedi. So seems unlikely they will be a playable class at least to start with.

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 15:56

Yes they serve the sith!

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 15:56

Yes they serve the sith!

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 15:53

sweet thanks

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 15:52

First! :D.

Way cool!
I love Mandalorians. Always have, always will.

Fri, 07/03/2009 - 15:51
