Well, the complete article is very long and detailed, but the part dealing with the Supercommandos in brief is:
-The supercommandos were a group founded by Jaster Mereel (Fett and him are actually different people) to try and resurrect the glory of the Mandalorians of thousands of years ago. Eventually, a rival faction, known as the Death Watchmen, killed Mereel and wiped out most of the new supercommandos.
-One of Mereel's pupils, Jango Fett, became the head of what was left of the supercommandos, but soon, the Jedi saw the threat that the group posed, and they destroyed it, forcing Jango to abandon it.
-One of the original ARC troopers, Alpha-02, suffering from a conditioning defect that allowed him to access all of Jango's old memories, escaped from Kamino and took it upon himself to rebuild the supercommandos. Dala and Shysa, poor workers on from the planet Mandalore, were eager to resurrect the glory that their people had once held, and anxious to get away from their boring lives, so they joined Alpha. When the Clone Wars broke out, Darth Sidious learned about the group, and used their hatred of the Jedi to turn them into his pawns in the war, fighting as elite commandos against the Republic (this is where the original story of Mandalorians fighting in the clone wars comes in.) One of their missions involved the kidnapping of Padme Amidala, but it was a trap, and the supercommandos were devestated.
-Dala and Shysa survived and went their seperate ways. leaving the remnants of the commandos for their homeworld. After that, their fates as have already been told holds up.
