    If Jango still had his two pistols and if his jetpack and his flamethrower were working, could he have beaten Mace in a fight. Should Jango have lived or not?

    1. Hell no

    2. He's a good solid character, but adding an additional villain to the already overloaded "bad guy cast" of ROTS would be unneccessary, IMO.

    His flamethrower and new jetpack WERE working. He lost 'cause he's no match for the most skilled Lighsaber wielder in the Republic, or almost any Jedi for that matter.

    No if you watch the AOTC, the Jet Pack sparks several times. Right before Jango loses his head, he tries to ignite the Jet Pack and it smokes and dies. Then he dies. So yes the Jet Pack does malfunction.

    No sole opponent is a match for a force user in a one-on-one. Jango would have met his end at the hands of obi-wan, had obi-wan been actively trying to kill him, NOT take him alive. (which is what he was trying to do,and still would have succeeded had it not been for the brat letting loose with slave 1's blaster cannons)

    And yes jango killed coleman tebor, but trebor was, rather obviously more concerned and completely focused on count dooku at the time; notice dooku reacheds for his saber when trebor leps onto the balcony, coleman was probably preapring to block a saber strike, not a plethora of blaster bolts from one of the most skilled shooter in the galaxy

    Therefore, No. (Though the way he killed the reek was pretty sweet though.)

    No


    Simply: no.



    No, no and no. He could have been flying the Slave I he could not have beaten Mace. Okay, I exagerate but not by much. Jango is a worm next to Mace. They are not in the same league. He was lucky not to die against Obi-wan.

    If I can play the Sith's advocate here...[face_devil]

    All things being equal, one-on-one, Windu would have taken out Jango pretty quick. But, as ROTS has showed us, a surprise attack by clonetroopers on Jedi can be quite effective. Jango's at least twice as skilled as his clones, what with their limits on free cognition and all. If there were more droids there distracting Windu, Jango probably could have taken out the Jedi Master with a well-placed blast, missle, or flamethrower.

    That's my two creds.

    Anybody can get killed by a shot in the back. Of course, no one is invincible but it a fair fight?

    If you are fighting to the death, there is no such thing as a fair fight.

    I think not.

    Bounty hunters have their uses. Killing Jedi Masters is not one of them.

    Alright people, its time to snap back to reality or its close equivalent.
    The only reason that Mace lived was because the plot demanded it. Remember Mace ran like a girly man from the Reek before Jango killed it.

    Anyhoo, there are 2 critical points when Mace could have died:

    1 When Jango dives for Mace's saber he could just as easily shot him dead right there.

    2 When Mace was charging Jango he could have turned on the flamethrower as he drew close and Mace would not have the time or space to do anything but get cooked.

    that poor sorry half-@$$ed excuse of a mandalorian?
    a true mandalorian could go toe to toe with mace windu bare-handed and bare-@$$ nekid and hold his own. he'd loose in the end but still. a mandalorian trained to use a light saber could kill mace windu but only about 35% of the time. the founder of clan fett must have been rolling in his grave.

    here's your two creds and two creds more.
    first a sword/lightsaber master could tune out the droids and second the reason order 66 worked so well was because they had to trust the clone troopers. if you'll notice cmdr cody missed obi-wan.

    No, I just think Mace was clever enough to avoid a beast in the middle of a fight with a bounty hunter and a droid army, rather than as you so tactfully put it "ran like a girly man".

    Mace could've rolled and gotten his Lightsaber, effectively dodging Jango's shots until he had the lightsaber again.
    And Mace just would've had plenty of time and space to dodge a flamethrower attack.

    Seeing as I dont like Jango due to the fact that it messed up Bobas back story, I have to say no. But not for that reason alone.

    Jango is in no way a mactch against a force user such as Mace. He could have prolly done some damage as I do give jango credit. But Mace would have eventually beaten the snot out of Jango.
