What that means for Din and Baby Yoda remains to be seen, but for now, the episode's callbacks to the original trilogy and Clone Wars serve as a reminder that the bounty hunter and his ward will never be safe with so many opposing sides grappling for power - especially the kind of power that Baby Yoda can wield.Star Wars Imperial Historian is a Star Wars lore channel shown from the perspective from an imperial, Arthur Prowse, archiving the galaxy covering civilizations, organizations, species, creatures, people of note, recurring technology and historic events. Right now, there's a power vacuum where the Empire used to be, but even as other groups jockey to fill that void, the threat of the Empire reassembling is ever-present (and inevitable, since at some point The Force Awakens happens).įrom the use of the Gozanti, a ship that's known for its brute force, to the unwavering dedication of the unnamed captain played by Titus Welliver, "The Heiress" makes it clear that even though the war is technically over, there are still battles brewing between what's left of the Empire and fighters like Bo-Katan. The galaxy is a mess, and Mando knows better than anyone that danger is everywhere. Since the series began, The Mandalorian has shown viewers the reality of what it's like to move through a war-torn galaxy with no cohesive government. Ultimately, even though it's not a particularly flashy or sleek ship, a Gozanti is a reliable workhorse that can be turned into an effective stronghold in a pinch. And it is hard to imagine that anyone without the skill of a Mandalorian would stand much of a chance of breaching a Gozanti under normal circumstances. It's only with Din's help that Bo-Katan and her team are able to take on the Stormtroopers guarding the ship. The Mandalorian fans get to see just how durable Gozantis are in Chapter 11.

But even though it's an unwieldy beast of a spaceship, the Gozanti became a go-to for rebels in need of a cheap ride that could be easily tricked out with weaponry. The ship's bulk comes with a pretty big drawback, though: It moves slowly - this feature helped convince the Republic that the nearly impenetrable ships wouldn't be favored by pirates, according to Starships of the Galaxy. Due to its massive size, the ship was once used to lift the always cool AT-ATs and drop them into battle, as well. Gozanti class ships can be used as freighters or as cruisers that defend cargo holds.
