Krogan = token warrior culture that must be included in every Space Opera.

Star Wars: Mandalorians

Star Trek: Klingons

Mass Effect: Krogan



Goblins and Orks fill a similar storytelling niche of stupid, ugly evil humanoids with a high reproductive rate. Vorcha fill that niche nicely for ME.

Nitpicking: but you never heard about the Mandalorians in the main trilogies, I don't think. Wookies would probably be the token warriors in 4-6

[SandTrout]

You both have valid points, and Sajuro is correct, I am just nitpicking.

When i got to the lair of SB and the yalg starts hefting that giant shield reminded me of terminator armor from warhammer 40k, so maybe space marines for squad mates in ME3?

[Fromyou]

maybe. Though I think Bioware created them for LotSB for a shock moment due to a yahg is something we never heard of.

[ZeroDotZero]

I see them as a potential ally against the reapers. I doubt that they really want to be wiped out as well, seeing as they are sentient life.

[Xilizhra]

I'd vote for them. From what I know, I like them a bit more than the krogan.

don't mean to star wars nerd the bioware forums, but both jango and boba fett were mandalorian, and large chunks of the clone armies considered themselves mando

But, to the best of my knowledge, Boba was never indentified as such in the original trilogy and neither was Jango in the prequels.

The Krogan are eventually shown to be generally pretty noble in Grunt and Mordin's LMs, as far as their particualr brand of nobilty goes. They are pretty much a race of '80s action heroes. They're almost all brutally honest and those that aren't are pretty much considered ****** (ie: Uvenk). While they can be brutal, you can always trust a Krogan to either be your friend or your enemy (like Grunt says, if wanted to kill somebody, they'd know it).

The Yahg on the other hand seem about as honorable as a pack of hyenas. While they have a pack-mentality, their culture still apparently thrives on machiavellianism. I'd have a very hard time trusting one, given what little we've been told about them. Not only that, if a typical Yahg is anything like the Shadow Broker, they'd probably be able to tear a Krogan limb from limb without any trouble. There wouldn't really be any stopping one, if they decided to backstab Shep.

I wouldn't want a Yahg as a squadmate. As things stand, BW would really really have to convince me to feel otherwise.

i would love a yahg squad member in me3i could just imagine how tough the would be.if the shadow broker is any indication they would be hard as heck to kill.

[Vociferation]

Ha,



A Yahg on board? Awesome! It might make Grunt jealous though In DAO we got Shale...I could see him packing that sort of wallop and being hard to take down...or, perhaps we'll fight more of them? It was a fun battle.

[AdmiralCheez]

Can we have a thorian squadmate?

[Si-Shen]

Just like to remind everyone that the council effectively planet-locked the speices, the fact the SB was one, was a rare chance, I would actually groan if we see them again, unless we are on their homeworld.

[Tom.sparky]

I have made a group about this and I thoroughly support the Yahg as an ME3 squadmate, just click the link in my signature to join up.

[volus4life]

female Yahg for LI plz in me3

[Zing Freelancer]

Yes sir! Lets uplift the Yahg the way we did with Krogan? I think that would be a terrible terrible idea.

[jamie94]

yahg with shields and hammers would be fun and it would suit their tech atm because their a pre flight species

 Yes they seem brutal (probably more so than krogan standards) but their pack mentality has got me thinking, seeing how capable and hard to take down the SB was.. don't you think seeing their potential he would go to their banned homeworld, maybe convinicng the council to let him go there since hey 'I was right about the whole reaper's-gonna-kill-us' thing'.

Anyway he would go there, defeat the leader and recruit him seeing as they're very loyal once proven there is someone stronger.

yahg is that big beast thing right?
Sounds like some powerful squaddie (but perhaps less controllable then a Krogan)

[Baihu1983]

Never going to happen and if its like every other squad memeber he will become a useless jackass that runs out in the open and gets killed as soon as he joins Shepard.

HE can't very well take the glory away from shepard now can he?

[vanslyke85]

It's said in the shadow broker logs that when the yahg home world was visited one specific yahg stood out from the rest. he even expressed a desire to want to leave his home planet. I'm not sure if all yahgs are going to be specifically like the LOTSB boss but they will 100% be involved in ME3 in some way.

They've got a pack mentality so whoever defeats the leader of a group.. becomes the leader of the group, till someone stronger beats him.
