Gorth 3,311 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Yeah, it will have to wait until February though Would be nice to have a party member though who actually goes together wit the Echani Foil, the Echani Duelling Shield. Wasn't there also an Echani Armour somewhere ? I think I ended up selling most of the stuff anyway though Quote “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

GhostofAnakin 1,183 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 I wonder if the Echani and the Mandalorian will be constantly butting heads and you'll have to pick sides, making one of them happy and the other in a pissed off mood.

Gorth 3,311 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Now if they would just add an Ichidorian (sp?) too, you would have the good, the bad and the ugly. Of course, who is who is up for debate then. (enter: music by Ennio Morricone) Quote “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Fettforce88 0 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 I would definately rather have the Echani pissed off than Mandalore.....in K1 it seems like the Echani are wusses. Maybe not the Echani in K2 though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Darth_Gandalf 16 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Exile: What is the true order of battle? Echani: Finesse and fine movements of the body yield only victory. Mandalore: The Echani are weakened cowards. They are even beneath contempt. I am surprised that Revan even wasted his time on them. The road to victory is paved with the blood of fallen foes.

Azazel005 0 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 That or there was a rough skeletal set down by bioware f the course of the development of KOTOR and only snippets made it into the orignal game. Nonetheless it makes for some nice continiuity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jedipodo 0 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 The Echani are a nice expansion to the SW universe, as are the Mandalorians. But that they all look like common humans is very unimaginative. If they were a race of their own coming from different places in the galaxy and therefor looked more exotic/alien would add much more to the credibility.
