boinga1 Posted December 7, 2002 Author Share Posted December 7, 2002 Originally posted by Lionen In Ep4, when Luke enters Leias cell, she says, "Arent you a little to short for a stormtrooper?", or whatever she says. IMHO, that indicates that they are clones. Why else would they be the same size? Of course, it may also be that there is a lenght limit for stormies. Like if you are under 180 cm(6 feet), you cant be a stormtrooper. I think (think) that it leia is just mocking the stormtroopers as a bunch of goons, all size and no brain (which is probably untrue). :trooper: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobaJango Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 Clonetroopers hands down. They are copies of Jango Fett, the second greatest bounty hunter in the universe. They are creative, precise, and are physically fit coming from Jango. They are nearly perfect. Storm Troopers: Morons wearing expensive armor for no reason because they cant shoot straight and will die anyway. Battle Droids: At least they are programmed for only one purpose, destruction. They can shoot better than Storm Troopers (hell, C-3PO could) and they dont feel pain or fear.(except those wimpy ones that ran from the Acklay.) Now if it were Destroyer Droids, they would win in a heart beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobaJango Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 And another good reason the empire gave up on clones. Okay, the Empire uses clones for awhile, the are obedient, and they get the job done. HOWEVER: Due to growth accelleration, their lifespans would in fact be cut in half. So what would be the point if you could only use them for 30 years, then "buy" another one? It would be extremely expensive. So they would give them up for real humans to have a variety of attacks. Think of troops all using the same tactics? They would be predictable. That is why(In theory, mind you) that the Empire gave up on clone troopers.

ET Warrior Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 Actually Lucas says in the episode 2 audio documentary that stormtroopers were meant all along to be clones. So there it is. Stormies are in fact clones.....but onfortunitally when they got their new armor the eye holes weren't made to go over their eyes properly.....and their blasters shoot crooked.

lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 Geez people read the other posts! Many persons including pointed out this: Clonetroopers could shoot straight because they were aiming at battle droids and not the main characters. Stormtroopers could not shoot straight because: The gang is running inside Bespin while pursued by Stormies. Leïa-Uh Oh! Many stormies heading our way! lando- No! George Lucas made thm shoot straight! *blastershots* The group died. End of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron2k2 Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 I think the super battle droids are best because they have no FEAR to make them hesitate unlike regular humans and they have those cool little gun thingys pow pow pow pow every things dead BUAHAHAHAHAHA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobaJango Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 Yeah but they can't fly worth sh*t. They're driods! You saw how the clones devestated them at Geonosis. And don't give me that crap about the driods being outnumbered. The clones are each a Jango Fett in some respects. And he kicks @$$, so they don't stand a chance. So what if they dont fear, they'll run into dangerous situations stupidily. Fear is GOOD. It determines what's insane and what's possible. It prevents us from killing ourselves in stupid ways.

lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 If we make them fight 1vs1 it will go this way. Super Battle Droid>Clonetrooper Super Battle Droid>Stormtrooper Stormtrooper(if they are clones)=Clonetrooper Stormtrooper(if not)<Clonetrooper but as a whole........ Clonetrooper=Stormtrooper(if they are clones) Clonetrooper and Stormtrooper>Super Battle Droid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
