MANDALORIAN BATTLE ARMOUR


         Mandalorian armour is the very symbol of Mandalorian technological superiority, and the most common sight when facing Mandalorian forces. Although the armour is regularly improved and modified, the same general look is maintained, and armour suits from thousands of years ago are only slightly different on a visual inspection.

         The armour is based on technology introduced to the Mandalorian Empire by the Juannar, who required advanced armour and atmosphere suit technology to venture away from their homeworld. Adapted for use by the more physically robust Mandalorians, this technology gave their troops an edge in combat from the very start, and it is mainly down to this technology that the Mandalorians, who have been vastly outnumbered by their opponents in virtually every conflict they have ever entered, to become a feared and greatly respected fighting force throughout the galaxy.

         Although Mandalorian troops are well disciplined and maintain a strict fighting order, they are encouraged to decorate their armour and individualise it, however even this small amount of encouraged individuality is forbidden when circumstances warrant, and Mandalorian armour is often modified for special missions. These modifications may vary from addition of extended air tanks for missions in hostile environments, right down to camoflage colour schemes for missions and service on jungle or ice worlds.

Description: The best armour that the Juannar and Mandalorian technicians could build, these suits cost millions of credits to construct. These suits are only issued to members of the Mandalorian Imperial Government, and the Mandalorian Emperors Elite Guard. Not only because of the value, but because of the honour attached to this armour it is NEVER allowed into the hands of non-mandalorians, since this would be considered a surrender of their Imperial power, and an insult to the Mandalorian people.

Jango Fett and boba fett wear the SAME ARMOR.


05/Apr/2010 15:45:53 Posted by Freddy

They do???
It regenerated from the helmet that Boba Retreived in Ep2???

Please note when this was written (pre ep2 release, pre Jango), and explain how I was supposed to justify its differences to a movie which hadn't come out?

I remember seeing stats identical to these (with the exception of the Regency armor and a different backstory) on a website call Pegasus Base which existed back in the heyday of the 1990s. Saddly the site is gone now. Since they were from before Attack of the Clones and all the Mando lit it makes sense that it doesn't synch up.

It's entirely possible.
A lot of my Early Mandalorian stuff came from something called "Talon Karrdes guide to the Mandalorians", but in the decade since I downloaded it I'm afraid I've lost the file (during one of many moves between computers) so can't check to see if this is entirely mine, or totally ripped off.

he's right mandalorians dont have any real set goverment (except the manda'lore) or uniform most just choose the colour of there life style (black being justice and sandy gold being revenge) and their clan symbol and some have the symbol for the the clans in general (that horned skull thing the only really uniform thing is the helmet which is generally that shape with the t shaped visor. Also the mandalorian armour wasnt invented by the juannar but by the taungs a race of near-humans from coruscant (before it became all urban) who left after defeating the native humans and ended up on mandalore and then pasted the armour down to humans when they died out
