    Not that anyone else is guiltless in this respect.[face_mischief]

    Nice explanation, that. My own take on it is that Kreia is quite simply a manipulative lier, and anything she says is suspect.

    Is there such a difference? She would've been executed anyways.

    Yeah, there is a slight difference between capture and kill. Your refering to the Mandalorians being sent to kill her, which they were not.

    In any case Sidious would probably have done the killing, or grevious. Not the Mandalorians themselves.

    I realise the Mando'ade wouldnt have killed her. And in the end, if the Mandalorians assassinated her or just captured and sent her to Grievous ot be executed, the effect would be the same. She dies. Though, having the Mandos assassinate her would've been easier. No need to get into some large, drawn-out conflict. A squad of mandos goes in, blast her third a eye right in the forehead and get out. But no, Spar had to be an idiot and get the all of the decent Mandos killed, leaving us with that sappy little punk Shysa.

    Damn right.

    What makes it worse is that little punk went on to become Mandalore, free his people, defeat the Imperials in his sector, and give rise to a new Mandalorian Era.

    That no good SOB.

    I am beleif Sidious would not have killed Padme as renember he needed her to help turn Skywalker. i am guessing he sent them on this mission knowing the jedi would defeat them.


    Atleast he did not fall in an unmoveble pit four times, then failed to even kill the inmobile creature living in it. Becuase dang if that happen to anyone they must be pretty bad.

    Well, if he kills her and makes it look like the fault of the Jedi, the Annie the Greater would've been mightily pissed at his Jedi buddies, doncha think?

    Nebver said Fett 3.0 was better then Shysa in this thread did I? I said Jaster Mereel, who united all the clans (well, many of the clans) and made them into honorable and moral fighters again was better than Shysa. And Mandalore the Ultimate, who nearly toppled the Republic, he too was better than Shysa was what I said. Nothing about Fett 3.0 being beter than Shysa.

    Ib'tuur jatne tuur ash'ad kyr'amur is a prime response to this. Of course, one woul;d have to put it into the context that they do not die physically, but rather in the arguement. I'd consider dying and lsoing to be the same word in Maando'a. Fitting really. ;)

    One problem: the part of the prophecy were she says 'too easily killed by Jedi.' A major feature of the clone army is that they weren't easily killed by the Jedi :p
