[@archsteel7]

Anyone who's played KOTOR likely isn't. I love the Mandalorian, it's a great show, and it's a fair depiction of the "Modern Mandalorian." Essentially just a gun for hire, with a code of honor... But it does give people a this skewed perception that Mandalorians are necessarily good people. I think my favorite instance of a character commenting on it is Bao-Dur from KOTOR 2, where he asks "Mandalore" why the Mandalorians bombed civilians. And Mandalore's response was just to say that "The Republic wasn't taking us seriously." And that they killed millions of civilians just to make the republic fight them in all-out combat.

[@skarloey2334]

@@archsteel7 i don't think anyone with some knowledge about the mandalorians wouldn't be too surprised if at all, regardless if they played kotor.

[@KMCA779]

Yeah, the Crusaders crossed a few lines. In their minds putting military bases in or around cities made the cities a fair target. Many of their rules regarding warfare were surprisingly civilized. Problem was they didn't share the answers with outsiders and got a little... vengeful when others ignored them.

[@Mysikrysa]

@@archsteel7 A warmongering psycho like these could hardly be a relatable protagonist in a show "for kids". The point is the Mandalorian society evolved, there were already pacifist, neutral Mandos in TCW vs. warmongering Mandos of Death Watch. Both of them were too extreme. They needed ballance, just like the Force. After the Great Purge the remnants of Mandos can´t nuke anyone even if they wanted because they were almost completely annihilated. They became good people because they were forced to become good people by the circumstances. Starting another conflict would not help them. Or at least Din´s clan became good people because I don´t see Bo-Katan as a good person, rather like the same old Death Watch scum she was in the past.

[@archsteel7]

@@Mysikrysa Of course, that's why I said the show was a great example of the "Modern Mandalorian." Obviously the culture has evolved and changed over time. Hell, the Mandalorian species no longer even exists as far as I'm aware, so it's safe to say the Mandalorians are not the same thing they were during the Crusades. I'm just saying that people have the wrong idea about the Mandalorians if they think they were always honorable space cowboys. Also, minor note, Din's clan is a cult and also ex-deathwatch. You can see it on their clan symbol, they're as much a remnant of Deathwatch as Bo is.

They had no possible way of knowing the empire was about to destroy their planet. Alderaan itself was extremely prosperous and peaceful because of all those restrictions as well. Even during the clone wars Alderaan was never really targeted because of their reputation. The only incident they had was when an assassin attempted to kill Padme during a conference held there and it failed not because every citizen there was armed to the teeth but because the Jedi and their own security force dealt with the threat. The only time Alderaan ever fell was during the Sith empire’s conquest and even then it was another surprise attack led by Darth Malgus himself so there’s no real way they could have won that even if every citizen owned a gun.

Banned weapons = weapons that are readily identifiable! In other words, a weapons ban is meaningless if the parts to make the weapons are widely available. A disruptor ban is all about calling anyone who uses a disruptor a criminal, not about protecting droids. And since certain technologies come from certain groups, it's really about muzzling anyone who is a threat.

[@ACEnBEAKY]

Video game idea: Basically a Star Wars Borderlands where the main (or close 2nd) stars of the show are the different weapons. Here’s the catch: it takes place during the original or sequel trilogy era, but it’s on a backwater outer rim territory that still has weapons from the Old Republic era and all the eras up to the story’s present. The older more primitive weapons from thousands of years ago are the most common at lower levels, but as you advance in money and story you climb the weapons as your collection gets more and more advanced. You go through slug throwers, disrupters, needlers, the whole 9 yards, taking weapons from the Old Republic era all the way to the Skywalker saga near the end. Different weapons and ammo types would have different strengths and weaknesses similar to elemental values in borderlands (some red would have an anti flesh fire like damage, yellow ricochet, orange combustion, blue would be extra effective against droids, purple homing, green extra powerful against vehicle armor, white against shields, sonic does extra damage to creatures with enhanced senses like hearing-etc). Naturally they could be altered to be more armor piercing vs hollow point (or the laser equivalent). It would show the evolution of weaponry throughout the millennia of the galaxy’s history and create a perspective as you cobble together schizo tech to make it off your 3rd world planet. Ps: be neat if the incorporated material from legends, like Vong bio armor and weapons. Might make a good dlc or sequel.

In real life, I’ve helped develop the Bacta Bullet, a pistol round that consists of an absorbent material, preferably a wet stone, soaked in an anti-infectious solution & is propelled by compressed air OR some other non-flammable propellant. Paramedics, especially military medics, can use these rounds to administer first aid, but can also be used to shoot an assailant & potentially kill ‘em, it all depends on which part of the body receives the shot… Maybe do a video that covers this…

@@geetslys jedi think disruptors are too far, yet starfleet thinks it's alright.

I wish I had a DXR-6 disruptor rifle in real life, I could have so much fun with it

[@kostakatsoulis2922]

Okay, favorite star wars personal weapons by category: Lightsaber: honestly no idea, it's a fricking laser sword, isn't that enough? Blaster pistol: Again not sure, but I'll go with that mandalorian blaster pistol, it's pretty cool. Blaster: E-11D Blaster rifle: DC-15A Light repeating blaster: TL-50 heavy repeater(name is confusing, but it seems pretty light and carry-able, so whatever) Heavy repeating weapon: Z-6 rotary cannon Shotgun: SX-21 scatterblaster What about you guys?

[@goldedrag111]

Mandalorian Rippers.

[@eliasjimenez8866]

My favorite one is the WESTAR-35 blaster pistol, alongside the ELG-3A blaster pistol and DC-17m Interchangeable Weapon System

[@grahamfahlman]

How dare the Republic ban my Blaster, there is a 2nd amendment that allows me to carry any type of engery weapon without restrictions.....

[@sillylittleowlguy2392]

Damn right! Come and take it, you glowstick flailing hippies!

[@crazydied2792]

Surprised you didn't bring up the T-7, carried by Imperial Royal Guard on occasion but banned by the Empire and the Rebel alliance alike.

Thanks KZbin recommendations

[@geetslys]

Thank YOU for watching!

[@dogf421]

even before the funny holdo manuver broke the entire meta i always wondered why fighters with nukes were not used on star destroyers. its a big target but small enough that a single nuclear bomb dropped from inside its shields (if it works that way) should destroy it

[@wotblitzcontainers4211]

“Those were the weapons too dangerous for civilian use” Nuclear bomb

Bothan spies are a funny concept "Hey is that a Bothan? The race notorious for being spies? You think that Bothan is a spy?"

[@Huy-G-Le]

Empire: Yeah these are ways to cruel, so we won't use them. Rebellion: Well, that more surplus weapons for us.

[@williamcayer7371]

Madolorians: oh, the Jedi can deflect blasters?! ( Pulls out a "primitive" slug thrower) deflect this you space wizard, enjoy shrapnel in the face. Bothans: wait, you actually let them deflect the shots.

“Ah! Disruptors! Good against steel, wood, just about anything, really. Including large, troublesome objects, like Jabba, for instance.”

You underestimate me, I've wonder how regulations were shaped for energy weapons in any Sci-fi franchise.

I love that you acknowledge nobody would ever ask this question themselves XD

[@csb8336]

I wonder where the oppressive galactic empire stood on pistol braces? did the brace turn the blaster into a disrupter??

[@casbot71]

Weapon not regulated because it is considered _not too dangerous:_ *MWC-35c "Staccato Lightning" repeating cannon* - Baze's Minigun from Rogue One. Openly carried in a city currently under Imperial martial law, by a retrenched temple guard. [As far as totalitarian governments go, the Empire is not that effective… North Korea doesn't allow civilians to have Miniguns]. Imagine if Wookies decided to use those instead of BowCasters …? Just add a bit of wood panelling to the stock, the power pack could almost be a bum bag for a Wookie.

[@thehistoryhex980]

My favorite wepon is the mandalorians rifle that he use to snipe the off world Jawas

Nuclear space mines: turn the ship that hit it into a miniature star, and EMP the ones around it.

Jedi: we don’t know how to deal with Cortosis! Literally every single other person in the galaxy including Aldereenians: Brah, just use the freaking blaster! Jedi: Ew, no, I’d rather die.

[@InventorZahran]

So uncivilized.

[@shorewall]

If owning Disruptors is outlawed, then only outlaws will have Disruptors!

[@Meravokas]

Verpine shatter guns were generally banned for common civilian use outside of verpine space and military/private military use due to their ability to pierce most known combat armors from plastoid to durasteel and many shielding types without energy sheathing. Plus even the pistols held comparable but not equal power to the rifles. I'd love to see an indepth look at Verpine weapons in general. The shatter guns get so little love.

[@weegee_darthno4045]

Man I love the verpine shatter rifle, really hope they do a video on verpine weapons.

[@Mizzle420420]

I get the whole idea behind the unique tech like blasters in star wars, but realistically they should include more standard ballistic weapons as well, it's just science, like a regular gun would rip right through a clone troopers armor or any "deflection" type blaster defense armor. Infact a regular bullet would most likely be highly effective at getting through energy shielding as well, the solid material would probably pass through it or at least overwhelm it if full auto, like in alot of games the counter to energy shields is to overload it with high rate of rapid fire from Gatling type auto cannons.

[@jamesleduke873]

Slugthrowers were a thing. They even appear in the films, used by Zam Wessel and the Tusken Raiders.

[@alphablood21]

Some form of a government "disrupter weapons are illegal" Pirates, hutts, and other criminal organizations "hehe disrupter goes brrrrr"

[@natethegreat7967]

4:01 So the Mandalorian Ripper kind of works on the same principle(s) as guns in Mass Effect.

[@ldobehardcore]

Another point on Nuclear weapons: Prior to 19BBY, the Bando Gora and Gardulla Besadi the Hutt used an illegal nuclear bomb to destroy Hego Damask's stronghold.

[@ryanpiercy3390]

just gonna point out that civilians who fight the cis should really have been allowed the droidkiller weapons. Anyone fighting an army of droid regardless of civilian or military should have been issued one imho. would have made the cis think hard about fighting with droids and probably done a heck of a lot more damage on average. Verpine droid disrupter, a small handheld weapon could do more damage than the standard issue clone weaponry. Imagine if a couple of these could stop a heilfire droid in its tracks. How many clone lives could have been saved?

[@themrfives]

I wonder if civilians were allowed to own lightsabers or similar weapons?

[@marrqi7wini54]

The empire banned them (Excluding Vader and the inquisitors.) and due to the jedi order, civilians were banned from having them under the republic.

[@radoslavsavov4879]

no ... even in the old republic , the republic and the new republic taim it is ban by law

[@generalsodapop3530]

A scoped DXR-6 is hands down one of the most effective disrupter rifles, and one of the few that could be used at long range. Anyone who played Jedi Outcast or Jedi Academy knows what I am talking about.
