Shok_Tinoktin Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 The impression I got, was that swords were used during those days because blasters were ineffective against energy sheilds, so there was a need for melee weapons. I assume that blaster technology improved more quickly then sheild technology, and swords were rendered obsolete again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 You think they'll throw in swords and viborblades when they can use lightsabers instead? I mean, you need to show the might of your special effects company! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Originally posted by Saturnine They don't show up in the movies because they are Expanded Universe sh*t that have ruined the whole Star Wars. But they do in various places, and so existed long before the EU. gaffi stick vibro-axe (multiple places) Geonosian force pike Royal Guard force pike whatever the Magna Guards weapons will be called Is it so hard to believe that melee weapons have a place in the Star Wars universe? Or are you just looking for any excuse, factual based or not, to rag on the EU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the emporors gaurd cary force lances, and also there are plenty of melee wepons in star wars galexies. any way the expanded u. stoys are better then the prequile movies and this is coming from someone who liked both of the prequiles.
