Bombad General/Legends

"Yousa doen grand. Jar Jar bringen da Naboo together. So, wesa maken yousa Bombad General." "General??! Oh, no&hellip;"

- Rugor Nass and Jar Jar Binks

Bombad General was a high rank in the Gungan Grand Army on the planet Naboo. Since the word bombad seems to have been a superlative, as in the phrase "Yousa guys bombad!", it seems that this position may have outranked the ordinary General grade held by senior warriors like Tobler Ceel, and it may even have been a commander-in-chief position; the Imperial rank of Grand General may offer a close semantic parallel.

In spite of the position's apparent importance and seniority, however, the grade of Bombad General was awarded to the inexperienced Jar Jar Binks by Boss Rugor Nass, shortly before the Battle of Naboo.
