Loader-73 Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 Ok, I know of regular stormtroopers, artic stormtroopers, and swamp stormtroopers. I also remember a long time ago reading about "anti-gravity" stormtroopers. They wore these huge suits and had magnets on the soles of their boots to walk on the skins of space ships. Anyone know of any others? Are Imperial Guards a type of stormtrooper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPMaximilian Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 Scout Troopers and some sort of EU Aqua Trooper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igor Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 The scout troopers have always been my favorite. Why aren't they in JK2. I think they should of had a few levels on the moons of Endor, so that they could of had scout troopers and speeder bikes. Or pilot speeder bikes.

Lord Corinthian Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 You are right about the Space Troopers:trooper: ...they appeared in the first Thrawn trilogy of books. And I'd imagine the Imperial Guards are technically troopers because I think they too are clones. (on either I stand to be corrected) The Clone troopers in Attack of the Clones are of course their Grand-daddies Although they remind me of Cylons from Battlestar Galactica! Hopefully Lucasarts/Raven will take full advantage of the new movie and look into releasing appropriate skins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum2 Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 Can't remember exactly, but in the comic series "Crimson... ehrrr... Empire", i think? there was a deep introduction on how Imperial Guards were trained, and there was nothing about clones. If my memory serves me well, they were supadupastormies taken apart to further training. Of course, EU can have some discrepancies, but... Good comic, BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obijonkenobi Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 The Imperial Royal Guard are my favourite. They look so awesome and something about the red and their pikes. Something about them just gives me the impression they are the deadliest of the imperial military - why else would the emperor use them if they are as dumb as regular storm troopers? It is a shame they didn't get a chance to fight on screen. But maybe in episode 2 or 3? (I don't have a clue about those movies from my personal blackout of information about them so for all I know they could be in those movies?) Anyway... IRG's rock! ps: if they are emperors royal guard instead of imperial - bite me - im close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davhowell Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 the anti grav troopers well they looked like the clone troopers but they had huge suits etc and were designed to fight in space or repair stuff they had jet packs etc and also i think there were desert troopers and some others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi_Overlord Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Don't forget the troopers that get put into intel. They were in many of the books, they have the black jumpsuit, no armor. Still, they went though the training, so I think it counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps a web page? I would be interested in reading about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say i'm a star wars fan Oh, and I always knew the "Arctictroopers" as the Snowtroopers. and I don't have the "RPG board game" with the 'zero gtroopers' in it, IMO board games are a bore. I hate them, they can burn in hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
