Sheesh, they only keep loosing because they keep trying to take on Jedi head to head, and forgetting that there's not enough of them to conquer the whole galaxy.
@@iamblight707 Ehh I don't know about that they would have conquered the galaxy in the mandalorian wars if it hadn't been for Revan without him the republic would have lost and in fact were on the verge of losing the war until Revan joined the war effort and turned everything around.
@@iamblight707 the republic didn't ignore the mandalorians, the jedi did. the mandalorians were taking republic world after republic world until revan decided to enter the war
@@kR-qj7rw Nah, that's not collateral damage because both of them generally intended to do it from the start. The civilians the Empire and CIS killed don't count as collateral, because they were the target all along. The Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders, on the other hand, never targeted civilians. They only nuked the ever-loving hell out of civilians when there was a military target in the middle of them, which makes the damage truly "collateral" (meaning a side consequence not part of the intended outcome), as opposed to an act of terrorism like what the Empire and CIS tended to get up to. It's the difference between bloodthirsty malevolence versus complete, no-fucks-given ruthlessness.
Mandos fairly squarely sit in the bloodthirsty malevolence category, too. Mandos were responsible for multiple genocides (Cathar, Fenelar) that very intentionally included civilian targets. Mandos are just as evil as the Sith, just less competent.
@@philloraptor8205 Fair point, I kinda forgot about them. I was thinking more about their behavior during their invasion of the Republic, and forgot about the other stuff they did.
A giant wheel with guns is the most Mandalorian thing I've ever seen, you guys nailed not only the visual identity of their culture but also their mindset.
Love your vids dude. You were a major influence on me taking an interest in the original EU (I was late to the party) so thanks for that; it's a gold mine. Your EU timeline stuff is particularly stellar.
Everyone seems to forget that mandalorians originally rode into battle on gigantic robot dragons bristling with laser cannons. They certainly had a distinctive theme. These look fantastic, excellent work!
The basilisk! I loved playing The Force Unleashed for the Wii and one of my favorite bosses was the fight with a Mandalorian character riding one in the Bespin level, glad to see it here
You're the main source for high quality depictions of Legends vehicles at this point with your mod and you have yet to come up with a bad design (probably will never happen). Every single one of those models is a work of art.
Oh yeah. I don't think Czerka has what is necessary for it to be a faction per se, but I'm curious to see what the team will do with them, I imagine they will come up through some mechanic. Maybe capturable assets in ground maps.
@NiiRubra Yeah they definitely couldn't compete in Space engagements with large capital ships, but on ground they probably could have lots of capturable assets. They have very rich visual and gameplay material to tap into there. I'm thinking like HK droids, Czerka Mercenaries, Czerka Droid Tanks, Bounty Hunters, and Sentry / Assault droids. I haven't played SWTOR but I assume they have more source material to work with
@@ociee1400 These are things that would make more sense for the planned Hutt faction in RevRev. Czerka itself would likely be either IF or possibly tied to some Sith faction mechanic if we are creative?
Canderous, Mandalore the Ultimate and Cassus Fett are probably the big names people will recognize, along with some more minor characters like Jaska and some rallymasters.
Well mandos have a great reputation in the fandom But really they just in lore fucked around wnd found out getting defeated often, nobody likes them enough to help them and over time.became just some backwater foot soldiers at best while the galaxy just outpaced them in numbers and tech. Who knew warmongering assholes race guys wouldn't be likes by everyone else :P
I think I get where he's coming from. They really are kind of assholes, aren't they? Not to mention a bit overly cocky and prideful for the number of times they've been slapped down by the Republic and Jedi. But they have a cool aesthetic and an interesting culture, so they're the fandom's favorite assholes.
They're basically all based on designs from official sources, though some are slightly adapted (ie the Tracyaat I think Philoraptor came up with as a modification for artillery on his own)
They’re all from the KotOR and Tales of the Jedi comics, with the exception of the artillery version of the flying APC, which we made up. The names are Mando’a words we thought fit, so searching for them won’t get you far (except Basilisk, obviously, and Baragwin Battle Tank, which is mentioned but not seen in KotOR II)
EaW is generally bad at melee stuff and since the battles will still be on open fields I don't think the gameplay abstraction of Kotor will be followed too closely. Mainly because even if the personal shield is good, it will lose against any big cannon from a tank. It works for Kotor in in-door fights but the calibre for big ground battles might be different for them.
^ forces of corruption nonsense literally did all the heavy lifting for mandos in the eu to have anything heavy for war by pulling the keldabe and canderous tank out of thin air in the empire era And yeah the canderous tank is like galactic civil war time, tho needs it when the video shows the big ass wheel tank tho
Sometimes I forget how brutal ancient mandalorians were, modern ones, and by modern I mean GCW and even TCW eras, are waaaaaaaaaaay less brutal. Like these mandos just domt give a shit. XD They subjugated a race so hard they became semi sentient instead of fully sentient. That's just messed up. XD
They are incredible evil pieces of shit people don't care because they look cool but they earned being bombed and turned into a poor shithole planet by themselves
@@kR-qj7rw If you mean in the galatic civil war era then no, because what I'm referring to happened well over 4k years earlier. Culture changes over time and the mandalorians did.
"Able to transport more Mandalorian infantry as they move to the front lines of the many wars they lost" A line more brutal than the wars themselves.
Sheesh, they only keep loosing because they keep trying to take on Jedi head to head, and forgetting that there's not enough of them to conquer the whole galaxy.

@@phoenixx913 You mean if the Republic and the jedi ignored the Mandalorians they would have won? I guess so.
@@iamblight707 yeah let's not forget that the start of the mandalorian wars was attacking planets to draw out the republic.
@@iamblight707 the republic didn't ignore the mandalorians, the jedi did. the mandalorians were taking republic world after republic world until revan decided to enter the war
1:20 Corey you have it backwards, Mandalorians have the *highest* regard for Collateral Damage.
Idk in sheer scale the cis and empire are way more fuck it blow everything up :P

Fitting considering they are the only faction we know of that used commonly used nukes in all three flavors, missile, bomb and mine.
Never disappointed by your models guys!!! They look sooo good!
A giant wheel with guns is the most Mandalorian thing I've ever seen, you guys nailed not only the visual identity of their culture but also their mindset.
Glad to see some obscure vehicles from the KOTOR comics making an appearance, and I'm loving the look of the custom designed vehicles as well

Basilisks are just iconic, probably my favorite mandalorian vehicle
What the fuck these are insane. I love literally all of these. Nicely done!
Mandos are Love-All in their wars but by god do they not let that stop them from trying again. And again. And again. And again.
It's like a dog hitting it's head with s glass door.
For millenia
Ah yes, the Baragwin tank. They say it's built like a Zakkeg.
Corey, I have a very important question: can you pet the Basilisks?
Only if you feed it
@@DarksaberForce Preferably Cathans.
They sure love their walkers and medieval mercenary feel.
This looks so good Corey can’t wait to crusade
Oh damn those Basilisks are gorgeous
If you have extra time and energy you should make a more mercantilist Czerka faction with design/mechanics inspired by your CIS design
Oh yeah. I don't think Czerka has what is necessary for it to be a faction per se, but I'm curious to see what the team will do with them, I imagine they will come up through some mechanic. Maybe capturable assets in ground maps.

Love all the snark in this video. Especially the "all the wars they lost" comment. XD
Any word on which heros will be in game in the first release?
Canderous, Mandalore the Ultimate and Cassus Fett are probably the big names people will recognize, along with some more minor characters like Jaska and some rallymasters.
@@CoreyLoses Nice!
@@CoreyLoses Demagol? with few mandalorian knights?
@@wojtek561 Sadly the comics only named two Mando Knights, but one of them (Jaska) is already done with Dorjander Kace still needing some work
Mando weebs on suicide watch.
mandos realy liked dinos huh?
I get the feeling Corey doesn't like the Mandalorians much 😁
Cool roster tho, can't wait to play with them!
lol I was gonna comment the same.
Right nice jabs at many battles that they lost lol
He's just telling it how it is. Warrior people, defeated people.
Well mandos have a great reputation in the fandom
But really they just in lore fucked around wnd found out getting defeated often, nobody likes them enough to help them and over time.became just some backwater foot soldiers at best while the galaxy just outpaced them in numbers and tech.

If you're gonna lose a war, at least lose it with honor!
Im so excited for this. Never did I think I would get to play a Kotor strategy game haha
The way of the mandalore, coming to your galaxy soon.
Corey coming in with all the salt.
Honestly such amazing work
Lol that thumbnail looks like that Swtor mando mount withguns on the front.
These look so good. Are they all/mostly original designs or do they come from some super-obscure source material?
They're basically all based on designs from official sources, though some are slightly adapted (ie the Tracyaat I think Philoraptor came up with as a modification for artillery on his own)
They’re all from the KotOR and Tales of the Jedi comics, with the exception of the artillery version of the flying APC, which we made up. The names are Mando’a words we thought fit, so searching for them won’t get you far (except Basilisk, obviously, and Baragwin Battle Tank, which is mentioned but not seen in KotOR II)
Will there be any melee weapons squads since personal shields were so effective that they had to roll back to it? (source: prologue of KOTOR)
EaW is generally bad at melee stuff and since the battles will still be on open fields I don't think the gameplay abstraction of Kotor will be followed too closely. Mainly because even if the personal shield is good, it will lose against any big cannon from a tank. It works for Kotor in in-door fights but the calibre for big ground battles might be different for them.
Looking forward to the actual infantry.
Are we going to see more close combat oriented infantry?
Is there going to be a video explaining the new infrastructure system (the replacement for food/parts)?
Ooo can't wait.
Any anticipated release date yet? And/Or alpha version release date?
Still nothing in that front, but Corey will start a preview playthrough on March 1st
12/10 video title
Were the Canderous tanks just not invented yet?
No the canderous tank was built during the galactic civil war same with the keldabe
^ forces of corruption nonsense literally did all the heavy lifting for mandos in the eu to have anything heavy for war by pulling the keldabe and canderous tank out of thin air in the empire era
And yeah the canderous tank is like galactic civil war time, tho needs it when the video shows the big ass wheel tank tho
When is it expected to come out
When it's ready, no release date
