The Book of Boba Fett (spoilers)

[Paul Farquhar]

Would the destruction of Mandalore be something you’d hear about on Tatooine, though?

I don't think you can argue that it couldn't have been heard. Operation Cinder has already been mentioned in Mandalorian session two. Chekhov's Gun gotta Chekhov.

Maybe but I have a feeling it would have happened not long after Bo-Katan obtained the darksaber. I suspect she did not submit to Imperial rule and so they punished her for it by destroying Mandalorian civilization. (I’m not sure why they bothered to bomb the planet outside the domes given that it was already a wasteland but whatever …)

Operation Cinder as a whole probably would be, and there might be a list of the affected world's.

But Mandalore had revolted against Imperial rule a little before the events of RotJ, and it's entirely possible that it was bombed to bits in reprisal at that point.

Bo-Katan rebelled around the time of ANH, and was defeated by Moff Gideon. Moff Gideon ruled Mandalore until the death of the Emperor, when he destroyed it in Operation Cinder.

To destroy the mines over the sacred pool, and absolutely not awaken the hibernating mythosaur.

Darksaber
This early Lightsaber looks "really cool", but is of inferior function. Its blade is made of compressed ennui and is capable of cutting through all but the most dense happiness. It is even more difficult and dangerous to use than a later, well thought out Lightsaber, and can result in deep depression for the user.

Scale: Character
Skill: Lightsaber
Difficulty: Very Difficult
Damage: 5D
Cost: Your Very Soul

Note: If an attacker misses the difficulty number by more than 10, he has "messed himself up real bad." Apply damage as normal and give the character a limp.

 

[Paul Farquhar]

A limp what?

A limp what?

Biscuit?

I remain unconvinced. We don’t yet have a firm timeline of what happened when.

The Wikis I looked at matched up pretty well, you just have to make sure the site you are looking at is only using canon and not mixing old Legends stuff into it. And what I saw was the Mandalore was being destroyed at about the same time the Battle of Yavin was happening, or about 9 years before the events in The Mandalorian, and about two years before Boba fell into the Sarlaac.

I only looked at Wookieepedia but it didn’t provide any dates.

Another reason for the Purge to have happened earlier is that Din is completely oblivious to it all. He didn’t even know who Bo-Katan was when they first met. Since he was made a foundling as a child, it makes sense for him to have still been an oblivious child when the Tribe were forced to flee Concordia.
