Mira wasnt Mandalorian. She was a Mandalorian slave who was adopted by them when she earned their respect in battle.

The family she lost was her adopted one not her real one.

Methinks you should check again Mira - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki
It says they accepted her into a Mandaloiran Squad.

Wiki says a lot of things. More than half of them aren't even half-truths.

When she was adopted by them, she became Mandalorian.

Whilst it is maintained solely by people contributing the information, rather than a properly employed team, whatever it says on Wookieepedia 9/10 times is backed up by a direct source or sources for the information.

Mira tells the Exile that the Mandalorians weren't her birth family, that they enslaved her and made her more like a conscript, then later accepted her into one of the clans as a fully fledged Mandalorian.

:agreed

The way Mira words it, she leads the Exile (and the player) to believe she was a Mandalorian, and then adds "As much as any slave becomes a Mandalorian." It's carefully worded to suggest that she's not a Jedi--except that we know she's going to be a Jedi (or at least can be).

Just like the situation with Brianna--she is forbidden to learn the ways of the Jedi--a curious choice of words.

There are DF books?!

The world's youngest mother was age 5. Check Wikipedia for Lina Medina. So, although it's extremely perverted and highly unlikely (George Lucas would likely get sued), it's possible.

There's the Jal Shey, the Zeishon Sha, the Matuki, the Baran Do, and entire species such as the Miraluka.
Well it obviously can't be the Miraluka because they're all blind... unless Mira's wearing contacts?!?!?!?! :lol:

But I thought the others were all Jedi? The robe descriptions seemed to imply it to me.

There are indeed Dark Forces books.
Covering Kyle's time as a Stormtrooper, to his transfer to Navy, his father's death, joining the Rebellion and going down the path of the Jedi.

I don't think the Zeison Sha or Jal Shey were Jedi or Sith, but Force users who wore armour.
Basically it was a way for Jedi characters to wear armour and use Force Powers without being uber, because people whined about not being able to use things like Force Speed or Lightning whilst wearing armour.

I've got to find those.

Yeah, I never got that. Vader could probably use Lightning, even in his suit. I know it was for balance purposes, but it still lacks logic.

A lot of things in video games lack balance, but you can't a game where one class is super-powerful and the rest are average. It would make those other classes pointless. So it's exactly a balance issue, and it has to be there for the game to function properly. What fun would the game really be if everything was 'realistic'? There would be no challenge, until you got to fighting another Jedi, in which case the first person to score a hit would win because the lightsaber would cut your head off rather than doing 1d8 energy damage. :lol:

Halo 3. Legendary. A single Grunt has the ability to take you out in less than three seconds. Damn, it is humiliating to be killed repeatedly by the same pipsqueak. :lol:

One minor correction here.
Pick any Halo game on Legendary, and one of those cute little fellas will simply whip it out, and proceed to cock slap you into oblivion.... with extreme prejudice.

However, the point that was being made was in regards to playable classes/characters etc, those which only a human being playing a game can control.
Unforunately, this seems to exclude MMOs.
