Hello,
Just been watching SW Ep 2,
Obi Wan says, "I haven't felt you this tense since we fell into that nest of Gundark's"...
Anybody know what these are? are they in this game?
Would be quite cool to know what they are talking about...they sound nasty

If you first heard about Gundarks from Episode 2 you should be ashamed.

Why should I be ashamed?
Just because you know what it is, you know, you CAN share some information, the only other person to reply said they had no idea either...
Obviously it isn't quite as common knowledge as you seem to think it is...

OK, my bad...
I haven't seen SW Ep V for a while...
How bout this?
"You look strong enough to rip the ears off a Gundark" -Han
Now, I guess that is why you said I should be ashamed...but you still don't know what one is, do you?

Gundark
Gundarks are strong elephant-sized predators which appear to be found on several worlds throughout the galaxy. The hide is tough and pinkish-orange, with a distinctive warty crest running the length of the long neck and around the mouth and eyes. The head is hammer-shaped and flat, with the eyes on the extremes to either side. This arrangement provides excellent binocular vision and spatial judgement used to aim the enormous muscular tongue, which thrusts from the rounded mouth to lengths of over five metres, ensnaring and constricting prey. In addition to raw strength, the tongue seems to bear suckers and what looks like a sticky excretion. It is said that once a gundark latches its tongue onto something, it never lets go.

Princess Leia and C-3PO were unlucky to meet a pair of voracious gundarks on an uncharted jungle planet during the search for a new base to replace the Hoth facilities.

Well all mine have borked specials, some have armour, other than that they are fairly healthy and back to normal levels.
