ADarkJedi44 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 True, he wasn't your shining example of greed, but I'm sure he made enough to not really need that much more. Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Which brings my next question:Â Why was Boba so intent on Bounty Hunting even after he had plenty? Was it the love fo the chase or thrill for the action? Or was it something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADarkJedi44 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Well by it's very nature, your question can only be answered by an assumption. Probably the love of the job, but who really knows... Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Usually, when you find something you're good at and can fit it into a career, you tend to enjoy it. What would he have done after he made his money, started up a corperation, settled down, get married, have a few little Fetts, maybe buy the speeder equivilent of an SUV and spend his time watching his son's hover-ball games Probably wouldn't work out oo well. Though I'm sure a sweater-vest would go nicely with the armor. He did sort of change his occupation once the war started. in TUF he was on that space station fighting the Vong with some other commando type guys in Mandolorian Armor.

Stellar_Magic Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Its the Fett's Mandalorian cultural background that explains his behavior. Mandalorians live for the honor of battle, they want, perhaps even need to fight the best in the galaxy to prove themselves. They really didn't care about wining or loosing all that much either, it was the fight that mattered. Why did Boba fight the vong, they were a new untested foe, and an invading force, there was allot of honor to be gained fighting them. The same goes for solo, after being stalemated Fett decided that Han was an honorable person and let him be. Basically Mandalorians are allot like the galaxy's version of the samurai, fight for honor until death in battle or old age. I mean just think, how old Fett is by the NJO Forum and RPG Membership:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/RaporaWarsTC.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/StellarMagic01/RaporaWarsRPG2.jpg Signature:Sufficiently advanced technology would be indistinguishable from Magic. -Arthur C.

Trejiuvanat Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Fett's about the same ages as Solo, a couple of years older. Nothing like a Veteran Bounty Hunter to liberate some worlds, is there? http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 And with that the reason fett became such a good bh is that Jango left him a datapd full of information and tips. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 But were Jango and Boba actually Mandelorian? And even if they were, I'm sure that GL would change what was said in KotR. He did it with the books... Edit: Apparently even my MSN group is having trouble with my avatat. Anyone else having the same problem? History is on the move, Captain.

Trejiuvanat Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Avatar's have shrunk... Â I don't know if Jango is Mandalorian, I think the crappy Jaster Mereel story they had made up for Boba they now attribute to Jango. Â A datapad full with BH info? Like Jango's 500 Do's and 10 Don'ts or A Fett's guide to Bounty Hunting, best cantinas, arsenals and crimelords or maybe My First BountyHunting Book, or Bounties from Alderaanian to Zabrak.???? http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted July 15, 2004 Author Share Posted July 15, 2004 If you have played the game Bounty hunter on PS2 you will KNOW that Jango is mandalorian. And Boba did have that kind of Datapad. It is in a book. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 I'm not sure how he could have a data pad from Jango in a book, as it would contradict everything we believed until GL destroyed what was held as fact. Before Episode II we all thought that Fett started out as a Stromtrooper, killed his officer, became an outlaw, killed a Mandelorian, took his armor, and had Kuat specially build the Slave I. I guess it could have been in one of the Ep II books, but I haven't read any of those. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance.

Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Me neither, Thrawn. I have yet to see a prequel book that would interst me enough to read it. The one thing that I have been reading though, are the Clone Wars Comics, that are superbly wriiten and the art is top-notch. You even see a Tusken Jedi!

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I've never really paid the Comics much heed, but Ccomics revolving around the Clone Wars sounds good. I'm probably a bit behind, but I'm sure I can find all the "old" copies. I've never been realy capticaved by the prequel stuff. Some how the Republic isn't as interesting as the Empire or the New Rebulic, even with all those Jedi around. History is on the move, Captain.

Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Well they aren't that old. The first appeared in January, and I belive the fourth is either on it's way soon or it has just been released. Trust me, you will like them. I never was much for SW comics until now. Although I always loved read'n the ol Punisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 Now GAT understand this:Jango was prepared for the eventuality that he may not always be there for Boba. So he prepared a databloc which would instruct Boba on the technics and methods for survival. So Boba just recuperated the armor of Jango and became a Bounty Hunter like his "Farther". and BTW Jango got the Slave one from a prison facility while "saving" a prisoner and destroyed the other ships of the same model. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I'm one of the fans that thinks "the truth is where is was covered first". I Know that Lucas sort of brushed off the old ideas about Fett, but I like them better. The idea of having a ship given to Fett (either one) is a little boring. But, as that's the way things are, I guess i have to accept the truth. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance.
