ugly and never liked the design
Great vid! Love what you do! Speaking of “appropriated” government hardware, the Tynan from the Expanse fits the bill - former military gunship that was taken over by a pirate, Ashfield, and had extra systems installed
When Spacedock properly calls Jango a Mandalorian.
This is the Way
Stellaris is about as far as I"m willing to go personally but this is free!? I didn't remember this being mentioned.
Didn't know a force cage existed.
"collapsium gas"
Star Wars out here with the best of science-y names.
nah, star treks got that honor
I mean, even actual science has terms like interferometry, so . . .
Reminds me of “unobtanium”. Such cheesy writing.
@@snorgonofborkkad Isn't that real though?
Edit: Yeah it's a legitimate term that can apply to rare materials.
if I discovered gas with those properties, I'd absolutely name it collapsium
Slave I, armed with the greatest ear-pleasing explosive weapon in the galaxy.
I'd say the ship it self, when flying, is the greatest ear-pleasing ship in the galaxy as well.
I hope you aren’t allergic to bass, ‘cause you’re about to eat it!
*Larry Kenobi:* The _beats,_ I'm done
@@casbot71 Anybody else feel like ice-cream?
@@nickdjp _Fresh…_
Everyone used to give this ship grief for being such a massive target from behind, but I think at this point we can safely say "Behind Slave I" is one of the last places you ever want to be in a dogfight. It's the gunship equivalent of a cat laying on its back, belly exposed: sure it looks vulnerable, but now all the claws are ready to rip you apart.
ship is meant to take on starfighter class up to medium frigates but I bet it could handle full size frigates too.....Slave 1 can not the stock version
all the weapons are in front mainly to disable ships and to destroy, rear mine layer is tactical but the whole package is meant to disorient, confuse and take by surprise and it's highly manuverable so when you're behind it can quickly whip around to position itself behind you.......it's sharper turn arc is an advantage most ships don't have and at least with Jango he was an expert pilot maybe not an ace but knew enough tricks to outdo most pilots
so even behind isn't a place to be.....
Just watched “the rescue” episode of the mandalorian and without spoiling...yeah it’s not entirely vulnerable from behind
Besides it's not a startfighter but rather a patrol ship, so most of the time a stock Firespray would be fighting smugglers or similar petty criminals not people with military hardware to getting behind Slave-1 would not be as easy as it would seem.
@@SampoPaalanen yep. Most like meant to chase down light freighter style ships like a stock YT1300. The Firespray I assume would work with starfighters. I sort of picture the Firespray working with at least 2 Z-95 s as escort. The smuggler ship is disabled and the Firespray boards.
@@darthXreven The tail-mounted blaster cannons can rotate around to fire into the rear arc, so the ship is plenty deadly to anyone trailing without having to coast backwards.
A very fitting tribute to the late Jeremy Bulloch the original Boba Fett.
Here after seeing "The Rescue". Can't wait for December 2021.
Is that when the new season will be? I hope it comes out sooner.
@@saadqureshi7127 Its the date for the new season. Sadly we have to wait a year. But it will be good. We also get a second show about Boba Fett.
Almost there Buddy!!
I am from future, just want to let u know that the show is badass
Boba Fett show suck ass
In Legends, after the first run, a second wave of Firesprays was built to capitalize on the Slave I's fame, e.g. Emon Azzameen's Andrasta.
"Not today, Bootlicker!"
In my head canon the Andrasta is actually a heavily modified S40K Phoenix Hawk Class Light Pinnace that Emon had modified to resemble te Slave I due to the fame of the ship itself.
@@robertdrexel2043 Why? The idea Kuat would cash in on some marketing hype fits real well.
@@DIEGhostfish Shrug. Two reasons really, well three, but two main reasons. The first of course is that KSE was folded back into the larger Kuat Drive Yards which put much of its industrial muscle into supplying the Empire with wargear. The second reason is that it keep the mystery surronding the Slave I and its owner if it is the only ship of the class if I do say. The last is mainly because its my headcanon and headcanon doesn't always make sense in the end. I just wanted to get the Slave I as the only Firespray Class ship out there.
It was so great seeing the interior of the ship, that it rotates when the ship takes off or lands.
That would be a colossal waste of internal volume.
WASP Talahosk514 tell that to the producers of the Mandalorian, that's how the ships interior is depicted.
You see it rotate in the mandalorian
My favorite childhood ship since Attack of the Clones. That movie was an amazing toy commercial. They got the best ships.
Nice use of Bounty Hunter footage. That game really needs a complete remake, not just update graphics.
@@michaelandreipalon359 Gameplay was solid for a lockon system.
Nah, what that game needs is a new entry, featuring either Boba Fett or Mando as the protagonist. GOD, I loved "star bounty hunters" games of that time! (Ratchet & Clank 2 still being one of my favourites)
"create(s) a huge electrosonic implosion that only shielded warships have been known to withstand" - A.K.A. Let them eat BASS
I bet they went for ice cream after the rescue.
One of my favorites from Star Wars. The creativity in the design is mindblowing.
100%, only the B-Wing and Falcon come close to it's originality
I'm so glad we got to see some Slave 1 action this season. Nerdgasmed so hard when he used the seismic charge.
Captain: "Whose attacking us?"
Crewman: "It's Slave 1."
Captain: "Get me my brown pants!"
Love the Deadpool callback; "Why the red suit? It's so bad guys can't see me bleed."
I like they actually showed how the inside cabin of Slave I works in the Mandalorian considering how it lands versus how it flies.
Certain shipyards (KDY) would install "kill switches" in their ships to prevent their interests and operations from being disrupted. These components would react to coded signals over certain frequencies, shutting down key systems, including defenses, shields and engine controls. Fett knew of these subsystems and removed them shortly after taking possession of SLAVE I.
You thought I wouldn’t notice the usage of the Star Wars Bounty Hunter theme but I did. Perfect.
Brilliant ship. Small and powerful, just the way I like them.
Not that small... It has multiple rooms inside as well as the spacious cockpit and rotating passenger deck!
I always thought this was one of the most wild ships in Star Wars. I can't think of many other ships that have such a weird flight profile -- that tall silhouette instead of being long and slender like a fighter was certainly an interesting choice
Agreed. It's very distinctive, and one of the best examples of Star Wars design going for weird, bordering on counterintuitive spaceship ideas (for the time; obviously Star Wars has massively influenced subsequent scifi design).
B-Wing ...
@@Asghaad yeah, that's another odd one. Although it's still very skinny when viewed from behind
Easily the most unique design for a starship IMO. It blew my mind the first time I saw it in ESB...
@@Asghaad the B-wing is my favorite starfighter
It's one of the best starfighters in science fiction, with the bonus of a set of iconic ear-pleasing bombs.
I've never been a huge fan of this ship. But it does have its moments.
Why not? Personally I adore the unique design
Its the most powerful ship because it simply t-poses on enemies
We need to see a GAT-12 Skipray Blastboat.
Now THAT would be a great bounty ship. The iconic rotating tail-wings would look great in live action
It STILL looks like a military-grade office stapler.
The Firespray has one huge disadvantage, no not the rear aspect _…ahem,_ but the fact that it is unique and associated with the Fetts - it basically has *Bounty Hunter* written down the side in giant flashing neon letters.
The _Slave-1_ turns up at a space port and everybody will be talking about it, and any potential bounty targets will go to ground or get out of dodge immediately.
And a preemptive strike against the Slave-1 as it's coming in to land would be a prudent move if any bounties were near a weapons console. Even seeing that ship on scanners would give the game away as it has a distinctive profile - the jammers wouldn't be on all the time.
And being unique, getting spare parts for it must be a pain.
IMHO A more appropriate ship would be a Corellian light freighter, heavily modified, something from the YT series. Outfitted with the same performance package as smugglers, the ship would be mistaken for a smugglers ship in the more lawless regions of the galaxy, thus not setting off any alarm bells.
The cargo space could be reduced to add _even more firepower,_ and the specialised equipment for prisoner transport.
Getting spare parts, maintenance, and just running it would be a lot easier.
And the Bounty Hunter could even do a little smuggling on the side, both as an extra source of income, and as part of a cover when looking for low life scum - you will be assumed to be just the same so you can get up close without raising suspicions.
It's a much more viable option than flying around in a Elephants Head that has _Bobba Fetts Bounty Hunter ship_ emblazoned on a trailing banner.
Love the idea! A YT/1300 like the falcon, but instead of cargo bays it has launch tubes for torpedoes big enough to break a frigate in half!
Of course in the new canon with biometric fobs that seem to have continental or planetary range going to ground or getting the fuck out isn't going to save anyone.
We also don't know how unique it is in Newcanon, I know in Legends Kuat started making more after Slave one became famous, an easy cash in really.
@@DIEGhostfish They would be RETARDED if they did not; an aging, bordering on obsolete design, flown by THE Bounty Hunter out there? "If he can do it so well, I can, anyone of these for sale?" "Yeah, turns out they are in production again now, the base hull goes for... only 150% mark-up from the initial production cost back in the day. It's a steal, really."
@@terenin6423 Eh, the general design is fine, just toss whatever in.
And Dash Rendar took it down with what might be the most powerful one-handed blaster ever.
Ah, I see you are a man of culture.
Love the Star Wars Bounty Bunter theme and footage.
In other words. You really don't want to mess with this ship.
when I first saw this on screen in combat I wanted this ship more than any other, onto the Eclipse has passed it since.
I still have my Original 2002 Jango Fett's Slave One (With Jango inside piloting it). It has a spot of honor on my Wall.
If the upcoming RPG sourcebook is meaty enough, would you consider covering some Expanse book canon ships?
Kinda figured this one was next, it was either this one of the Razor Crest. Good breakdown as usual though.
I still recommend the Sol Bianca from the ova of the same name. To be honest I have quite a few ideas for the next ship breakdown; The XGP 15A-II (ie. the Outlaw Star), The Angel Links, perhaps even the Arcadia from Captain Harlock.
i personally think Slave-1 is one of the best ships in all of star wars. It’s agile, stealthy, only needs one pilot, has storage, a prison, a living quarters, and heaps of weaponary.
what more could you want from a ship?
Awww yeaaaah, Slave I!
after this we’ll go get some ice cream!
Hehe.
One of the best YT videos i've seen in a long time. As someone who played Star Wars: Bounty Hunter back in the day, the music used in the video really put a smile on my face. A very well written game, despite being "small" in many respects.
Great video and the game Prosperous Universe is actually pretty good as well. Thanks for both!!
i really wish we could have more then one break down a week
Been my favorite ship designs since I was 8!! I've always loved vertical flying ships
"Do you want to play OCD: The Empire Management Game?"
NO, I do PREFFER to have FREE TIME to do shit like LIVE.
Sweet game though, best one this year that I'm not gonna play.
Nice touch with the SW: Bounty Hunter OST I used to just let that play a while before I started playing all the time just like Republic Commando which I patiently await a sequel to.
I appreciate the Bounty Hunter soundtrack and the clips from the game, I'm glad the game's still available on PS4.
As apathetic as I have become towards Star Wars, I’ll always enjoy content about the ships, tech, and lore that you upload.
Fun fact about Slave 1: there is no fun fact about it, when you see this ship tailing you just make your peace with the Force.
Speaking of original sci fi, I just finished the Sojourn book 1 and it was pretty darn good.
The tail cannons and central laser cannons appearing identical has always driven me nuts. Best guess is that the animators had a hard time getting Slave 1, lasers, AND the Delta-7 all in frame in the tight shots of the asteroid belt...?
Seismic Charge ftw.
Think it would be great to hear a breakdown of the Farragut Class Battlecruiser from the Federal Navy of Elite Dangerous, just such an awesome design that recalls battlestars I think.
Slave 1 was such a strange design, it seemed cooler back in the 80s and 90s I think.
You know it's funny to me the thing looks like a giant iron like what you use for clothes to me in design.
This is my favorite ship
Before seeing how this video pans out, it's interesting that I wondered if this channel had already done the Slave 1 and as of yesterday had only done a video on it being rather silly.
Gotta jump on that sweet Mando attention.
the best thing about the Slave is the sonic imploders. Only seen Attack of the Clones a few times but that sound stays with me. Legendary
Thanks for this my vod! You did all Mandalorians proud.
You should check out Starsector. It's a treasure trove of lore, ships, and all kinds of fun things to discuss.
razor crest next pls!
Hey, I had this ship in Star Wars Galaxies and forgot what it was called when I watched The Mandalorian. Now i found this great episode, thanks for making this video. Your channel is awesome!
I think that the bulky frame and large silhouette is somewhat offset by how damn quickly that thing turns. Look at the scene where it pulls out of it's hangar on the prison planet Jango got it from. Does 2 180degree turns in a second, in atmosphere. Also consistently outmaneuvers a jedi starfighter in space dogfighting, managing to stay behind Obi-wan or utilize it's mines to negate his enemy's positional advantage. Thing's a little terror
I kind of want to see a brief animated parody now, featuring Hank Fett and his son Bobby Fett. "I got a jetpack, dad!" "The clone ain't right..."
I thought you were throwing shade on the sponsor at first, by the end I wanted to play it.
"KSE Firespray after a Delta 7 to no effect because plot armor"
Nice use of the Bounty Hunter Game's music theme.
Ngl if Jango didn’t blow up all the other damn ships, this could have been a successful ship. BUT NO. JANGO WANTED THE ONLY ONE
Based on the description of the interior in this video, Slave 1 must be like the TARDIS...bigger on the inside.
WELL AMAZING TIMING!! Thank you! Could do the Razorcrest too :-))
Lando: I like the ship, not the name
Boba:
😈
Thanks
I love this ship. Was the 2nd ship (after the x-wing) that i built in space engineers.
Great timing for a Boba Fett related video
I love listening to the opening music on my Kraken Headset.
Top class episode
I remember the Andresta. Always wondered where Emon Azzameen got it.
Excellent
I think it would be epic if this guy was to do things like this but for various weapons
A ship layout that makes little, to no practical sense, but I do really like it. It really does stand out to the other ships, (as it was supposed to). Where most ships basically 'point' in the direction they fly, (Star Destroyer, Corellian Corvette, X,Y & A-Wings..), this thing seems to purposely go against that design philosophy both flying and landed. My wife's comment, "That is a really odd looking ship." Truer words were never spoken and it still is one of those stand out designs you either like, or hate. I love it because it's so odd looking. 😁😁
Thanks again Daniel! Love this ship!
Interesting that Ion now seems to just be an alternate fire mode for the bottom guns. The older cross sections had them up higher, where the rapid fire guns were when Jango owned it.
Consider this: KDY produced 6 prototypes that were loaned to the Oovo 4 prison for testing. Jango Fett stole the Slave 1 and destroyed the rest. As a result, testing could not be completed, thus leaving problems that were never resolved.
A Cahoona Meatsteak empire in X3 you say? No, we need Bofu!!
I still never really understood the allure of the Firespray design, particularly the perchance for the interior hull rotating the way it does. But overall, I do have a bit more respect for the ship's history... though Clone Wars did make it a really solid Republic Beater when employed in such a manner. I kind of wish there were some Exosquad pieces in the collection, particularly the ECV-33 Exocarrier Resolute and her support craft... but over all I find the entire collection to be incredibly informative and especially well done.
I would love to see a episode about the ships and fighters in the PC game Starlancer
You really need to do the SDF-1 Macross.
Can you do the Adamant Frigate or Arachne Cruiser from Battlestar Galactica Deadlock please?
A Sci-Fi Spreadsheet game? Sorry I still have nightmares about MOO3!
I find this to be very interesting
Mars eternal
ahh cahoona meat stakes, that brings back some memories.
Prosperous Universe? Premium license holder here, currently not playing. 😔
About Slave I: Seismic Charges & rapid fire blasters are awesome. 😁
Can you cover the Bug transport from Starship Troopers: The Roughneck Chronicles?
The rotation of Slave 1 has always baffled me. Who would design a ship that way? Then again, my favorite ship as two hulls connected by a ridiculously skinny neck so who am I to judge.
I shudder to think of the maintenance bill for a ship that old and still in service. Maybe that's what Boba Fett spends the bulk of his bounties on!
I mean, he seems to live on the ship, so why not? He may have also modified it to work with more common parts.
Same can be said for Han and Din with both the Millennium Falcon and Razor Crest - but with that last one, if you know, you know.
@@InhabitantOfOddworld Eh I'm sure with a little duct tape and some tweezers, the Razor Crest will be as good as new!
@@DrownedInExile
Don't forget some Mon Cala fishing rope either
Thanks for the vid sir.
The Slave I will always be my all time favorite ship within the Star Wars Universe and I would pick that fine lady over the Falcon every single time.
Emon Azzameen and his Firespray the Andrasta beg to differ on only one left :)
Are you guys ever going to do the Earthship Ark from The Starlost?
Look back on previous comments of mine for the specs on this insanely immense and wildly imaginative ship.
"Nice ship! Don't care for the name though."
~Lando
How about doing the Buck Rogers Thunderfighter?
Can we see the Andromeda Class Space Battleship (Space Battleship Yamato)
I'll tell yah the most efficient way to export cahoona meat steaks: You accept a mission to destroy a production plant, then put your own production plant, and create a fearsome fleet of trading warmongering corporativism
Ah, the Firespray. The one thing new canon actually fixed for Legends canon.
Seriously, did Jango destroy every other Firespray up until after ROTJ? Then how come there's so many examples of other Firesprays during the following Civil War period?
Star Wars X-wing: Alliance was my childhood game, and I took great offense to Bounty Hunter's plot hole lol
Great video
Fee like the great and powerful seismic charge on the 2 tie fighters was a kind of a waste on two dinky tie fighters.
That game reminds me if the premise of FRAGILE ALLEGIANCE? Anyone else like that game?
