That makes perfect sense honestly. Human society and industry is kind of held back by our inability to work together in large groups effectively. A species that is already accommodated via biology to operate in large groups toward a single shared goal, would be superior.
*YES!* they're probably the most underrated and underappreciated species in star wars, and have atleast been _my personal favorite_ for quite a while. More people need to know and talk about these little buggers
How about a video on the Ssi-Ruuk and the Ssi-Ruvvi Imperium? Not sure if they count as a hive-minded species, but they are known for using bizarre technology.
In the book humans ended up allied with the skinnies an alien race against the bugs. The government in Starship troopers was rather chill. That was the entire point it was practically librarian. They carried a big stick so it wouldn't need to be used.
Unless they attacked first, they’d probably be fine. While the Starship Troopers government was a weird combination of libertarian and fascist, the latter more in the movies but the book was too, they didn’t seem to be spoiling for a fight until they were attacked. Unless Buenos Aires was a false flag operation to drum up support for the war, and honestly I wouldn’t be too surprised if that was Verhoeven’s intention in the first movie. That man had Things To Say with the world building. I’m pretty sure Heinlein didn’t intend that in the book, though it’s been years since I’ve read it.
@@brokenbridge6316 Thank you. I'm a pretty big Owl House fan, though not as big as other series I'm really into, Star Wars being one of them that is bigger which is why I'm here. :)

@@brokenbridge6316 Yeah it is a great series, I just wish it got a proper season 3, but Dinsey had to go and cancel it early. First cutting Clone Wars short and now Owl House, they keep going after the good stuff.
Man that was disappointing! I like the more crazy looking aliens, they don't get enough spot light. Only the more "human" looking aliens do. I wanted him to at least die a hero.😡
i appreciate seeing networked minds that arent hostile. lot of ways to share a mind that dont preclude individuality . we are doing it right now, just with somewhat lower bandwidth than the ones in sci fi.
Am still into human built craft, but kudos for the Verpines on having a niche on this galactic business enterprise. No need to make vids on the Killiks. I still shudder to remember poor Jaina Solo being a victim of them (and also by the insane writings and kinks motherkarking Troy Denning).
Very cool video, I had seen the one Jedi Verpine in the Republic Comics, but didn’t know anything about them. I know you probably don’t take suggestions from the regular comments, but I would love a video about the Bothans. Jedi Master Kai Hudorra, is one of my favorites
@@MrRimant Quarrie took the original design, made it real and made it better. “Verpine shipwrights crafted designs that engineer Quarrie aimed to improve upon in his designing of the Prototype B6” and “In designing the ship, Quarrie intended to improve upon the designs initially created by Verpine shipwrights.” Straight from the canon Verpine and prototype b6 entries respectively. As for the manufacturers, yes it was Slayne and Korpil, the Verpine shipwrights that mass produced the official b wing after it was finished by Quarrie.

So. With this species theres sentient AND non sentiment... an they dont seem obsessed with the Colony, hive or whatever one giany space bug or another calls it. Bein apparently quite good at everything intergalactic tech wonder if one of these bugs ever suffered an faith crisis or had any kinda similar odd feelings if any of them set out to or was contracted to make a bunch of bug zappers
These guys were an interesting race, but like with many species given the moniker, they are not actually a hivemind race. Really, they are a eusocial species, more similar to ants and bees than they would be to the Borg, a more accurate representation of a "hivemind." "Hivemind" is often a misnomer used when describing eusocial behaviour, but should not be conflated.

The verpine are kinda like a light side equivalent to the geonosians.
That's a very apt way of putting it
@@brokenbridge6316 thanks

Actually they were completely neutral. They were more concerned with tech than anything really.

Looking at the verpine and colicoid, it seems like insectoids are the top engineers in the star wars galaxy

The Verpine made some great & well known starfighters
Wait. *can* mayonnaise kills a jedi? Also the radio communication and democracy makes them a rather unique insectoid in any sci-fi I’ve seen.
There was a Verpine Jedi that served Darth Sidious after order 66 once he/she saw how fast the Dark Lord wiped out the other Jedi in the room.
they're hermaphrodites so they're both

Thank you for the subtle CMKJ shout out! -CMKJ Cohost
Who dis?
Nice to see Can mayonnaise kill a jedi art at 4:06 they need the exposure.
Thank for covering the awesome Verpine! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃!
Have you done a video on the Vurk? I’d love to see one of your videos on Coleman Trebor’s species.
i appreciate seeing networked minds that arent hostile. lot of ways to share a mind that dont preclude individuality . we are doing it right now, just with somewhat lower bandwidth than the ones in sci fi.
Would love to see them on screen, either animated or in live action
good to see the art from the Can Mayonnaise Kill a Jedi podcast, I ahve been a fan of them for a while.
Yo same
Very cool. I like the positive aspects of having a hive mind society.
I think a video about the Zhell, and perhaps hypothesizing about the shared ancestry of humans and near humans might be interesting.
I don't know what mayonnaise does to a Jedi, but i hope the Cannon addresses this soon.
Only a Sith deals in condiments.
Am still into human built craft, but kudos for the Verpines on having a niche on this galactic business enterprise.
No need to make vids on the Killiks. I still shudder to remember poor Jaina Solo being a victim of them (and also by the insane writings and kinks motherkarking Troy Denning).
Yes, the Verpine are awesome (even remind me of the Shirren from Starfinder). I'd love to see a video on the Vratix, the species that produces bacta.
I love star wars species so much lets hope the verpine species in upcoming star wars content
Nice to see the creators of all my favorite goofy spaceships
How about a video on the Neti the good old sentient plant species
4:18 - so can mayo kill a jedi?
Mayonnaise can not kill a Jedi.
(Raises hand)
Horseradish can not kill a Jedi either.
lol.
@@zexalbrony4799 😂
Verpine also make energy shield, ion rifle that torn battle droid into shreds too. I've known them back sinc Knight of The Old Republic Game.
This has quickly become my favorite Star Wars channel
Swarm war books are awesome. Long Live the Real Expanded Universe
"Can mayonnaise kill Jedi?"
That is a really good question.
Finally! A video (Mostly) about stuff AFTER Revenge Of The Sith. Can we get more of such content, please?
I think you should cover the Zeltrons later.
4:12 "Can Mayonnaise Kill a Jedi?"
Do the Kiffar, Quinlan Vos’s species.
Two arms and two legs? Compound eyes? Carapace? Fleshy joints? - Arachnid
I wonder if AP-9 was made by this species.
I’m hoping canon throws the verpine a bone and allows them to establish a colony on geonosis in the wake of all of the geonosians being dead
Am i high, or did i see a sign say "Can mayonnaise kill a jedi?" ?
🤔... actually their droids were the best in the Galaxy :) and at a lower cost 🤔 ... if I remember correctly 😅
Cant wait for the kilick video…

Designed the B-wing? Don't you mean helped mass produce it? As it was designed by Quari a mon Calamari as shown in Star Wars Rebels.
Quarie improved upon the designs, he didn’t come up with the original.
@@QixTheDS According to wookiepedia they have the Designer as being Quarrie. With the manufacturers being Slayne and Korpil.
@@MrRimant Quarrie took the original design, made it real and made it better. “Verpine shipwrights crafted designs that engineer Quarrie aimed to improve upon in his designing of the Prototype B6” and “In designing the ship, Quarrie intended to improve upon the designs initially created by Verpine shipwrights.” Straight from the canon Verpine and prototype b6 entries respectively.

Generally these episodes are Legends based. In Legends, the designers were all Verpine with Ackbar giving input.
SW Rebels doesn't exist
The B wing was made by a Mon calamari during star wars rebels
Wow, your pull on your recent cards is ridicoulsly good :) Owl Gaming.
The Kaleesh
Gotta love the shatter rifles.
I would like to hear more about these guys.
Im writing the 3rd story of a fan story thats set more than a century after tros and planning one of the main ships of the new government to be a Slayn and Korpil ship
Im afraid of em but , i think they interesting as hell
So when that Mon Calamari invented the B-Wing in Rebels, was that a retcon of this?
there is no such thing as SW Rebels
on you're next video can you talk about all protocol droids series please
So Verpine are the honey bees. 'Nough said.
I got no problemo with these guys.
Having literall bugs in the jedi order is going to far!
I'm sure Omni man would have loved them......
You should do a video on the shape-shifting shi'ido species.
Hmm, I was of the opinion that the Verpine were descendants of the Killiks but you make no mention of that in the vid.
In fact, with only a glancing search, I don't find any mention of a relationship but the body build is pretty dang coincidental then.
Both species even had a similar fashion of distance communication.
I see mention of the Killiks disappearing around the same time as the Celestials (whom had enslaved them) so...
Am I off base with this assumption?

their name is really cool
Thanks for the video
do the hiromi next.
I keep getting different word on where the B-wing came from.
Gotta love rule breakers

Nice episode.
can you do a video about the swarm wars?
So. With this species theres sentient AND non sentiment... an they dont seem obsessed with the Colony, hive or whatever one giany space bug or another calls it.
