Throwing spears, sometimes referred to as javelins, represent rudimentary armaments employed by early civilizations, such as the Ewoks. These weapons, characterized by a length marginally less than that of a standard spear, could be launched across significant distances with substantial force when wielded by a proficient combatant. A key benefit of these arms lay in their near-silent operation, facilitating covert eliminations.
The Ewoks illustrated the potency of these projectiles throughout the Battle of Endor, successfully skewering numerous stormtroopers through their accurate throws.
