See my Major minor heroes thread for a compromise idea that uses pre-existing assets.

The thing is that cuts into development time. We have to focus on things that affect gameplay more otherwise critical components would never get finished.

I think y'all should look past the importance and see what  would provide people with enjoyment.
Having a few minor heroes with supporting infantry wouldn't be unbalancing, but would add more fun options for players.

The Mandalorians are a funny lot. They keep getting wiped out to the brink of extinction and then resurface after 30 years. Individually they are superbly talented, but there simply are not enough of them to justify the hassle of adding a faction. 

 

It's a bit like Bond. You can send 007 to assault a single house, commando style, but he can't capture a whole county all by himself. The Mandalorians are the same. Think of them as an elite-of-the-elite covert action group, not an army. 

 

This mod deals with planetary invasions. A single "squad" in PR represents hundreds of troopers, and a "land battle" involves thousands. 

 

By analogy the Mandalorians would probably become a single Major Hero with 3 guards (and a LOT of HitPoints).

In the grand scheme of things there are more important additions to make to the mod.

If possible, give their infantry squads mixed armaments allowing them to target a little of everything.

I would like to see them as a recruitable (in limited numbers, or maybe hero unit) special squad type unit on Mandalore (like the noghri) for both sides. Unit profile could be stronger infiltration, sabotage and specops, with maybe some special abilities. To make a model for them, bobafett should be reskinned alive.

True, personally I see this happening as a sub-mod of PR for those that want to play them.

The Mandalorians aren't really powerful enough in our timeline to really warrant an entire faction dedicated to them.

While I WOULD like a Mandalorian race, whatever we get I'd like to be balanced by the lore like the rest of the PR mod.

I was just hoping you could add in the Mandalorians i read that you said it would need a dedicated artist , but maybe you could ask the people over at rise of the Mandolarians if you could import the faction?
