    Except they did kill other Mandalorians? Lots of them?

    Show me when and what I meant are random people of Mandalore not guards.

    In The Lawless when Bo-Katan's faction fought against Maul loyalists?

    And though they didn't do the killing personally, they were in on the plan (and supposedly in command) when Savage and the gangsters invaded Sundari in Shades of Reason, and I'm pretty sure random civilians were killed in the invasion. Death Watch is responsible for those deaths.

    Exactly! Death Watch essentially had a civil war killing each other when they split into two factions just because of disagreement about their code of honor after Maul defeated Pre Visla in one on one combat.

    In the EU Death Watch killed Fett's parents because they were hiding True Mandalorians on their property.

    Death Watch had no problem killing any and everyone standing in the way of their objectives.

    well I see your point I still think in the new canon they will change how his parents died.

    Filoni again does say that to Lucas, Jango was not Mandalorian and that is the canon to the storygroup basically. And the Aryan Nazi concept and look of the characters was deliberate.

    Plus to him Clones dont have a Mandalorian connection, despite EU and novels to contrary, so looked like a deliberate mission by Lucas and Filoni.

    Sabine though is by blood and culture, Mandalorian.

    was re watching the first Mandalore arc... the death watch armor is remarkably similar. Going by canon, I'm guessing he swiped it or had some connection.

    I think it would make more sense for Jango to have been trained or raised by actual Mandalorian than just a thief with an obsession with Mandalorian arms and culture. Maybe its more dignified character wise the latter option, He did seem like he knew what he was doing in AOTC - well up to the arena part where Lucas had him die by Mace like a fool that just relied on his blasters.

    I don’t think we actually never see him obsess over mando arms (or really the culture), he just use the armour. The arms we see him use are of different manufactures that are not mandolorian.
    Are you saing that he would not knew what he was doing in AOTC if he was not a mando?

    In TCW, Mandalore's prime minister says that Jango Fett was no Mandalorian, that he was just some bounty hunter who somehow acquired Mandalorian armour.

    If Jango ever encountered Pre Visla's Death Watch, how would it go? Would they demand Fett to explain how he obtained the armor? Could Fett beat Visla in a duel?

    I think there is already an topic that extensively covers this kinda thing already:



    http://boards.theforce.net/threads/was-jango-fett-part-of-death-watch.50027897/

    Jango would likely be shot dead for being an impostor and wearing their armor and symbols. Vizla from what we see on the toon is a far superior combatant(was able to fight Kenobi, Ahsoka and Maul) and a military commander. Neither Jango nor Boba stood a chance one on one with a Jedi(Jango against Windu or Boba against Luke).

    Oh didn't see that topic.

    Jango fought pretty well against Kenobi in AOTC though

    I always had the opinion that Almec was either misinformed or lying about Fett and his Mandalorian status.

    Nothing other than trying to prove the point that Mandalorians are no longer warriors.

    And another reason to cross out being miss informed they would have had records of who was born on Mandalore/Cancordia.

    You are correct but records can be faked or altered. It ultimately makes no difference since the powers that be have said that Fett is longer a Mandalorian. I have no issues with him just being a guy who took the armor one way or another and using it.

    This is my headcanon. It makes Jango independent and badass.

    The only real similarity is the blue trim... Death Watch wears dark armor, and darker blue clothes. Jango had silver armor and light blue clothes.

    Boba acquires his own armor piecemeal over time, hence the differing gauntlets and jetpacks. Could be after the Mando Civil War ends, the warrior culture becomes more accepted and a greater variety of armor deco becomes the norm, so Boba could've gotten his from any post-MCW Mando warrior he clashed with.

    Cool game:




    Vosa in the game claimed she killed Mandalorians while she was a Jedi. Lucas and TCW overruled that game though,shame as some aspects were very good, Vosa was a neat character. But even in this game, it is is said that mandalorian Jaster Mereel took Jango under his wing.
