@@justinkemp4019 LOL. That was a sort of "April Fool's" joke. The problem is detractors and haters of the Expanded Universe present it as proof that the EU was written by idiots in forum arguments.

Tattoine's first contact wasn't in 5,000 BBY. The planet was a lush jungle planet, teeming with life and cities before it was glassed by the Infinite Empire for participating in the slave races uprising. This is why tattooine is a sandy desert world.
well there's that and then there is the whole terraforming when the proto-tusken-jawa species got to the point where they've technologically done everything so their bored and old so new things would evolve and in such a time when the new things have evolved they were to switch the terraforming equipment back on and make tattooine that lush home to guerilla warfare artists and merchants.
*Fun fact:* Vader, despite not being a fan of the Death Star, wanted to see that superweapon destroy Tatooine, since he completely despised the desert planet because of how much it made him suffer in his youth. In fact, this dark thought even made him smile under his helmet
My favorite Sandcrawler is the one used by the Czerka Corporation during the Old Sith Wars. The one we see in KOTOR when we visit Tatooine was just IMMENSE
I was seriously impressed by that thing too in the game. And I was really impressed with much of a threat the Sand People were. They were quite a challenge for me. Tattooine was the first planet I always visited after I was all done with Dantooine.
@@Oriko-1---Yeah I won't argue with that. But hey it was Tatattoine. How could I not visit first. Besides I had gotten force heal. And I paced myself. Also I tried to be clever too. It eventually works out in the end.
I could see this being a fun video game. Jawa: Sandcrawler. It could be an X-Com style game, where you upgrade the crawler, it's facilities, it's crew, and then of course, your Jawa warriors or explorers or something could go out and fight enemies (like sand people), and gather resources. I can already feel the sweet sweet dopamine hits as I upgrade the Sandcrawler's reactor, or droid repair facility and find undiscovered treasure from the desert...
Yeah that. Maybe make the storyline about a Jawa that learns about the force, as an opportunist, not a user. Sandcrawler battles. Droid army. Fight sand people and Imperials, and smugglers. There could be a lot of story there.
I really love the Sandcrawlers, their designs and functionality were amazing and I enjoyed seeing them in films, TV shows, and games. Czerka Sandcrawlers were definitely the best designed with how huge they were and how awesome they looked.
I realized back in 1977,at the age of 11, that “the little fellows” could have never have built anything close to a machine as larger or as awesome as a sand-crawler.
It's my headcanon that whatever weapons the Rakata used to glass the planet also damaged the metal of that desolate place. With how much they integrated Dark Side force power into everything it might even be some sort of alchemical plague, ancient nanobots that just break down the metal of the planet once they get at it because they were targeted to destroy only it specifically.
Well, a lot of metals will oxidize when they get too hot under an oxygen rich atmosphere. That is why most welding processes use inert gas to keep the air away from the molten metal.
@@herpesdergotterbote2719 Yeah, but that process is reversible (that's actually what smelting is, mostly) and does not permanently change the nature of the metal itself. The issue with Tattooine resources, as described, would have to be something much stranger than that.
There is a chance that the weapon the Rakata used to glass the planet was infused with dark side force power is the reason why the metal is affected the way that it has been. A sort of long term reaction to said dark side force on the metals
I always love the sandcrawlers. When I was a little kid, shortly after the movie came out, someone gave me a cardboard sandcrawler to assemble. It was very flimsy, but for a little kid, it was great.
The most glorious part of Tatooine is that it was once a mostly water covered world. The Jawas and Tuskan evolved side by side on that lush, wet world. Incidentally things went wrong with the solar system.
Oh is that the new Disney cannon? I always thought it was lush back in the day, but the rakatta glassed the planet cuz the jawas and sand peoples common ancestor rebelled against them and over time as their suns grew and cuz the glassing eventually turning into sand and that’s why is a desert hellscape
@@stuglife5514 The Rakata _ARE_ what went wrong with the solar system. Well, okay, their stars were what truly went wrong, but the Rakata actually made it a permanent problem. The current canon, however, is a single glassing event to finish off the planet. The disease was spreading through the Rakata, and as such they were losing their connection to the force. As ALL of their technology was force based - they were even losing their ability to fly their ships. This left them without any actual fleets of any real size or significance. Tatooine was already beginning to roast, and when they rose up yet again ... Instead of the usual culling the population very heavily as a mixture of retribution, and of grabbing extra food, they didn't have the forces to do so easily. As they always had before. Therefore they simply glassed the planet. Knowing that doing so would tip the world's balance, and tump it over into being a desert until their stars burn out.
My favorite Sandcrawler-fact will always be how Gaddafi almost attacked a Sandcrawler. You see: In the 1970s, Tunisia and Libya were on the brink of war. At the same time though, George Lucas was shooting "a new hope" in Tunisia. And well … Here's an excerpt of an article from back in the days: "… matters reached high intensity when Libyan made a demand that Tunisia immediately cease its provocative deployment of a massive military vehicle near the border. Gaddafi warned that conflict was inevitable if Tunisia did not comply with his demands at once. The offensive military vehicle in question was a Jawa Sandcrawler. If the demands had come after Star Wars was released, Lucas might have been in a better bargaining position. Since the release of the first installment in the series, Star Wars films have generated more than $10 billion (adjusted for inflation) worldwide. At the time, however, Lucas was more interested in getting the first movie done than he was in taking the battle of good and evil directly to Gaddafi. He quickly agreed to move the Sandcrawler to a less-provocative location."
i find it interesting that the structure of the sand crawlers is so similar to the biology of the sandworms in Frank Herbert's Dune. both with the fiery inferno at the back, both scoop up raw dessert and process it, and they are both technically a community of individuals with the sandworms being colony organisms. interesting that the sand people and the freemen also have many parallels. nothing new under the sun, but ideas mutate and appear over and over.
It's 100% lifted from Dune, it's not a coincidence. The original Star Wars contains loads of homages to different works that Lucas loved, it's no secret. It's why they mine"spice" on kessel. To top it off a bunch of the props and designs from Jodorowski's production of Dune that never left pre-production were used for Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Luke: "Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru...they're dead. Just like those Jawas." Obi-Wan: "Oh, the Jawas weren't dead. They were just stunned." C-3PO burning the Jawas: 😳 Obi-Wan: There's nothing you could have done, Luke. Had you been there, you would have been killed, too, and the droids would now be in the hands of the Empire. But look on the bright side." Luke: "The bright Side?" Obi-Wan: "Yes, I'd say this makes you the proud owner of one kick-ass Sandcrawler!" Luke: "Holy crap! Yeah!" *Star Wars theme begins to play*
Can a desert be "torn up"? As soon as there's a breeze-BAM-it's a desert again. Are you implying there was something especially angry and violent about the resource extraction? Were they punching the dirt and saying mean things about it while DIGGING A HOLE?
Tattooine wasn't just sand dunes. As we saw even in the movies, there were a lot of rocky areas and flat plains in the desert as well. That presumably is what the mining companies were actually trying to dig resources out of, and depending on the techniques used, that could have been quite disruptive to the landscape in many areas.
Loved the fact that there was an entire clan who modified their sand crawler into a space worthy vessel and cruise the stars preying on old wrecks from long forgotten battles and trading with whomever they came across.
Id like to see a video about the AT-ATs and along with the 2 legged mini AT-ATs. Another one is Luke's Sand Speeder. There has to be some history there.
Damn…Never thought a video about a massive rundown mining vehicle would make me feel bad for the sand people. They’re not mindless brutes they’re just trying to defend their home since it’s all they really have.
Another excellent video! Have you done any about the SKIFFS that are seen in use by Jabba the Hutt's forces or variations like the old KENNER mini-rigs?
I would almost think the Sand People would have gained some respect for the Jawas, for removing the alien scrap from their mother desert. But I suppose selling scrap to off-worlders probably undid any good will that might have bought.
Could you maybe do a video on the Naboo Starfighters next? For a pacifistic people, it’s a wonder why they have a fleet of some kind at all, when they decided they needed one and what other instances they were in use for besides the Battle of Naboo against the Trade Federation.
I would like some lore on the trains, aka Railjets, used on the Subjugator Class Heavy Cruisers, as doing some digging reveals they might have been used on a shipyard as well, but outside of that i cannot find much info
Sandcrawlers are cool thanks for the video. In The Mandalorian, Chapter 2: “The Child” Din Djarin rides in the main control area of the Jawa sandcrawler on Arvala-7, to great comedic effect. From this we see that, not only is it canon that the Jawa Sandcrawlers are found on other planets where Jawas are found, but that the sandcrawlers were either heavily retrofitted to accommodate Jawas or were never intended to be used by human-sized sentients.
Given what was stated in the video about sandcrawlers being a product of the mining companies brought to the planet, who (or what) was supposed to have been driving those things originally? Some other pint-sized aliens brought along as well? If so, who were they and what happened to them when the Czerka Corp pulled out??
A giant moble city's like morter cityscape to mine and refine oars. Is a great idea. But it should be heavily armed. Sheilded,armored, and aerospace capabilities and inter stellar mines. Thuse the jawas woukd be no pushover for storm troopers.
Just to split hairs for fun, Marines have sergeants and also use naval terminology. Now more silliness from Schlock Mercenary, a sergeant in motion outranks a lieutenant that doesn't know what's going on.
What Happened to The Second Channel about Badasses of history.. THE BRAVED, I've been looking for it since I can't find it. I really love your videos and I would love to see the kind of dynamic you take on the Badasses of history
Seeing all the failed mining operations leaving their sandcrawlers poses the question: Are you actually conducting mining operations or are you just providing Javas with new sandcrawlers at this point?
For being so advanced, it sure looks like they (the people attempting to mine the planets crust for metals) sure didn't know what they were doing. Nobody starts a mining town and bring tools and supplies before making sure there are valuable resources to be mined and that the quality of said resources would be good enough.
Sand crawlers have doors, not hatches. Hatches are only found on ships and boats. The treads on sand crawlers are too small to properly distribute the vehicle's weight, and they are way too top-heavy. Let me guess, they use repulsor to keep from sinking into the sand and/or rolling over. This comment wasn't meant to be taken too seriously. My first statement was informational, and the second was poking fun at how every physics violation in Star Wars gets explained away by "repulsors" and "inertial dampeners." A bit off-topic, but does anyone know if Jawas conduct rollover drills? How do you say "rollover, rollover, rollover" in Jawan(or whatever language they speak)?
Great video! Would you be able to do the Gallofree Transport? Or the Lucrehulk (since it used to be a cargo hauler, before it was converted to a combat ship)?
If sand crawlers were designed for humans, why is the control area is low and forces humans to hunch? Or did the jawas turn a spacious high-ceiling control room into a cramped double decker layout?
We probably would have that answer already if they didn't cancel Mandalorian publishing program and it's Visual Guides. And yeah, Pablo Hidalgo would be stretching himself trying to retcon another part of lore that doesn't make sense.
@@АлексейМомот-щ7о In my head - canon, this Czerka Co. and Corellian Vehicles ended up in places such as Arvala because of mining. And jawas kept giving them the same use. Little weird though
i might have missed it or might just be stupid. but if the enviroment is that hard for the jawas, specially when they are hounded by the sand people, why havent jawas tried to move away from tatooine?
I do believe they modified a Sandcrawler and made it space worthy. They literally flew it into space from Tatooine to Arvala-7. I recall reading or hearing that somewhere.
Given that there is light sabre type crystals in the sand and that these would be easily extracted with simple machinery powered from the crawler I would expect them to make a ton of money exploiting this
Are the events of KOTOR still considered canon? I've wondered ever since we saw Jawas and sand crawlers on Nevarro in The Mandalorian. Jawas don't really seem to be a spacefaring race, at least not with their own ships.
Do you know what the real history of sandcrawlers is? George Lucas said "I'm going to put some midgets in robes with hoods, and will give them flashlights for eyes, somebody think of something cool they can live in, Make it really big, you know like a moving junkyard thing, oh yeah and put tank tracks on it cuz that'll look cool" the end.
Little did that one tribe of Jawas knew that they changed the course of the galaxy when selling both R2 and 3-PO to the Lars
And little did they know they would all be massacred by storm troopers for it too.
The force sensitive Droid played a part in it as well.

I remember in the first KOTOR game getting to hear the story of the Sand People and how the Rakata's glass-ed over their planet. It felt very tragic.

An economic game where the main goal is finding and trading scrap with fighting being done mostly defensively would be more suitable.

This comment wasn't meant to be taken too seriously. My first statement was informational, and the second was poking fun at how every physics violation in Star Wars gets explained away by "repulsors" and "inertial dampeners."
A bit off-topic, but does anyone know if Jawas conduct rollover drills? How do you say "rollover, rollover, rollover" in Jawan(or whatever language they speak)?
Great video!
Would you be able to do the Gallofree Transport? Or the Lucrehulk (since it used to be a cargo hauler, before it was converted to a combat ship)?
Great job on this video.
"ripping up the sand"? must be similar to tearing up water 😅
Oh let me tell you how obi wan gave darth vader a present. Oh it was so good.
"armored land barge"
It is important to remember, that Tatooine was based on Arakis in many ways.
I'm totally a JAWA! I LOVE SCRAPPING!!!!@!@
Man KoTOR is a masterpiece
If sand crawlers were designed for humans, why is the control area is low and forces humans to hunch? Or did the jawas turn a spacious high-ceiling control room into a cramped double decker layout?
No doubt, the latter. The Jawas were always extremely resourceful people.
How about explain how a moisture farm works. And how much do they get for selling moisture.
this is really good

Why were they Sandcrawlers on Arvala-7?
We probably would have that answer already if they didn't cancel Mandalorian publishing program and it's Visual Guides. And yeah, Pablo Hidalgo would be stretching himself trying to retcon another part of lore that doesn't make sense.
@@АлексейМомот-щ7о In my head - canon, this Czerka Co. and Corellian Vehicles ended up in places such as Arvala because of mining. And jawas kept giving them the same use. Little weird though
What is the battle music starting around 1:30?
i might have missed it or might just be stupid.
but if the enviroment is that hard for the jawas, specially when they are hounded by the sand people, why havent jawas tried to move away from tatooine?
So how did the Jawas end up on Arvala-7 in The Mandalorian along with a sandcrawler?
I do believe they modified a Sandcrawler and made it space worthy. They literally flew it into space from Tatooine to Arvala-7. I recall reading or hearing that somewhere.
Good stuff.
When I saw the slides from SWG i cried 😢
Given that there is light sabre type crystals in the sand and that these would be easily extracted with simple machinery powered from the crawler I would expect them to make a ton of money exploiting this
BUT DAD YOU LOVE SAND PLANET!!!
That time they caused a political dispute coss people thought they where new military vehicles 😂
I always think of the inside and rooms like it was in Lego Star Wars. Anyone remembers?
We need a Jawa movie
Aren't they based on spice harvesters from Dune ?
Are the events of KOTOR still considered canon? I've wondered ever since we saw Jawas and sand crawlers on Nevarro in The Mandalorian. Jawas don't really seem to be a spacefaring race, at least not with their own ships.
Cool ✌🏽🌻
How does one mistake a desert planet for a star?
Maybe it was just really reflective from the sand, so perhaps because of the light coming off of it? I’m just guessing though, I don’t really know.
@@ChrisDelSanto98 More likely extremely reflective since it was a giant glass ball for a few thousand years.
Looks like Dune crawlers
By “dark history,” do they mean the interior lighting of the vehicle?
Do you know what the real history of sandcrawlers is? George Lucas said "I'm going to put some midgets in robes with hoods, and will give them flashlights for eyes, somebody think of something cool they can live in, Make it really big, you know like a moving junkyard thing, oh yeah and put tank tracks on it cuz that'll look cool" the end.
