What's silly is that most of them are just Stormtroopers wearing an accessory. I can imagine the conversations some of these people must have, "put on your cape, we need to be mudtroopers today" "oh, you're going for a walk outside in Sullust? Better become a magma trooper! Put on your shin pads and get your respirator". But of course, all of these folks get special training to do complicated things such as: not stepping in lava; looking for a branch if they get stuck in deep mud and can't move; as well as: walking down the shores of a beach and enjoying the good weather?

I feel like Flametroopers in Fallen Order and in that comic were made to resemble Snowtroopers a bit, echoing the way First Order Flametroopers would later resemble First Order Snowtroopers. Feel like the Incinerator trooper throws a wrench in that, but I’ll chalk it up to the Empire having lost the war and being low on supplies. Red paint will do.

Not to be that guy but, mud troopers that fought on mimban weren't a variation or type of stormtroopers. They actually fell more into the ranks of the imperial army, a seperate branch of the military from the stormtroopers. The imperial army were enlisted or conscripted as well, but they weren't quite as well trained, yet they fought on most of the bloodier battles, such as mimban.

I feel like Alex kind of fumbled on what is a stormtrooper. I would think that a stormtrooper variant would have to be an Imperial trooper that is part of the Stormtrooper Corps. While the Stormtrooper Corps was a part of the Imperial Army, there are also other corps within the Imperial Army as well. The Imperial combat driver and all variations such as AT-AT pilot, AT-ST driver, AT-ACT driver, Tank driver, and Juggernaut pilot are part of the Imperial Combat Driver Corps and are not Stormtroopers. Mudtroopers are Imperial Army, plain and simple, and are not Stormtroopers otherwise all the soldiers seen on Mimban in Solo: A Star Wars Story would have been wet-weather gear Stormtroopers including Han.

Storm troopers were not the main force of the imperial military. The imperial army is a separate branch then the storm trooper corps.

[@dutchvanderlinde7239]

@@catpicton5814 The stormtroopers are employed to deal with high priority threats. That’s why you always see them in the movies, the imperial army is basically just a minor security force stationed on bases and planets. (Sorry for responding late btw)

[@jlokison]

I don't normally disagree with you and your knowledge of canonical material. However I think a lot of "Troopers" you have here are Imperial Army not the Stormtrooper Corps. They are different branches of the Imperial military after all. Unfortunately some of the visual dictionary, comic book, video game, and novel writers (and to some extent even tv show and movie makers) don't seem to remember this distinction. As some one who spent time in a real world military their would definitely be a distinction. The Stormtroopers are shock/assault troops, used for ship boarding, decisive attacks and initial occupational forces. They are chosen not just for their skill at academies but there loyalty and devotion to the Empire and Palpatine, they represent an elite force. They also get monitored but loyalty officers a lot. With the exception of Snow Troopers, they are distinguished by their armor and helmets, if it looks mostly like a regular Stormtroopers they are part of the Corps. If a military campaign is going to take awhile or you just need manpower and firepower you use the Imperial Army. The army is more numerous and consists of those trainees not good enough for the Stormtrooper Corps or Imperial Navy. This is where Han Solo got sent. They don't get glamorous nor glorious missions usually but they do get a lot more armored fighting vehicles and artillery. If the armor doesn't look like a Stormtroopers the individual under it is probably Imperial Army not Stormtrooper Corps. The armor is less protective and often bulkier than Stormtrooper armor, expenses were spared on these soldiers.

[@MikeWasThere]

yeah i was thinking this alot cause this video implies han solo was a stormtrooper (which he wasnt)

[@Shot5hells]

Apparently most of the land vehicles stormtroopers typically deploy with are technically imperial army as well. I think it's a bit of a clusterfuck because stormtroopers seem to fill so many categories, but I do think it makes sense that the imperial army are the ones who do most of the trench warfare, even if that kind of thing is literally all they do. Stormtroopers seem to be variously elite shock troops, ship boarding action specialists, hazardous environment specialists, a police force, a more political force... I think if you confine the imperial army to action like on mimban, and give basically every other role to stormtroopers, it kind of works fine. The imperial army should be rarely seen by most normal people because they only deploy in or near proper warzones. Stormtroopers should be seen with some regularity by most normal people because they are peacekeepers and law enforcement as well as elite soldiers. Stormtroopers are the face of the empire, the imperial army are a more expendable but in this time period not often useful force because there aren't many proper conventional wars happening in the age of the empire, it's all insurgencies.

[@jlokison]

@@Shot5hells I think the one exception is the Mandalorian Sector Uprising. The response to a governor and ISD being destroyed was probably to send a legion of Stormtroopers to occupy Sundari, my guess is that failed the Uprising spread from Mandalor to its star system and then the entire Sector. At that point it involves mostly Imperial Navy and Army, it also becomes a propaganda gold mine for the Empire and a hindrance to the Alliance to Restore the Republic. The Mandalorians although initially assisted by the Rebel Alliance cared nothing for the Republic and were fighting for an independent Mandalor. COMPNOR probably loved being able to make the Mandalorians bad guys and down play rebel groups as minor terrorists. It would be so easy because of the history of the Mandalorians and the associated myths and legends that almost every sentient species has either heard or was directly involved with. Why would anyone complain about resources going to the Imperial military as it fights to protect the galaxy from new wave of Mandalorian raids. Moff Gideon was probably only given authority to start the Mandalorian Purge near the end of the Empire. While Mandalorians have a lot of advantages against Stormtroopers and elite forces, at this point in their history they don't have the ships to compete against the Imperial Navy, nor the man power to stop the Imperial Army on planets and moons. Of course we might learn more in Season 3 of The Mandalorian, or a military scifi story about the Uprising and Purge.

[@jlokison]

@vargen1414 I appreciate the thought I'm just not sure I have the time to do a novel justice before the Mandalorian tells us what happens.

[@RedDog6911]

@@Shot5hells actually, the Stormtrooper Corps wasn't a political force, that would be CompForce. CompForce was the military arm of The Commission for the Preservation of the New Order (COMPNOR). COMPNOR handled things like Surveillance, interrogation, Re-Education, Enforcement, Investigations, Internal Affairs, and Special Operations. They also handled propaganda, schools, and directed the cultural achievements of the Empire. The Imperial Security Bureau was also under COMPNOR. Think of COMPNOR as being the SS, the ISB as the Gestapo, and CompForce would be like the Waffen SS. COMPNOR was explained in great detail in the Imperial Source book for the Star Wars RPG.

I personally have been a major fan of Shoretrooper armor ever since it first appeared and it has stayed my favorite even with new and cool variants showing up like Range troopers.

Well, in canon in later years Army Troopers were phased out completely in favor of more funding towards the stormtroopers and their academies. By the time of Rebels you would automatically become a stormtrooper and enter into the academy to become one upon graduation.

I know it's always been for merchandizing, but calling all these variants "X-trooper" is just funny to me. Most of them are likely the same troopers with the same training, just issued different armor for different environments. Like Vader dispatches troops from the Devastator to Tatooine to search for the plans. The "Sandtroopers" are just stormtroopers from the Devastator who just grabbed some field gear and went down to the planet. Same with the snowtroopers on Hoth. They are just stormtroopers who were issued cold weather gear for the battle. There's no way an entire battalion of "snow troopers" just waits around on the Executor for a cold weather mission.

So, was the vehicle Mando and Bill Burr hijacked officially a Juggernaut? I only ask because when watching the series for a second time I realized that it appears to only be half the size, or even a bit less, than the actual juggernaut, so I assumed it was a smaller version made for use by miners and various other hauler type jobs. But in the Mandalorian, there are several scenes where you can clearly see that the tires are shorter then any of the characters present, but we’ve constantly been shown that the actual Juggernaut’s tires are almost twice the height of a adult human.

[@christianammentoft3302]

You forgot to mention the Stormtrooper Commander. 😉 The Stormtrooper Commanders patrol hostile battlefields, leading their troops into fierce combat on dangerous worlds such as the fungus planet Felucia. With razor-sharp minds and steely resolve, these highly trained Imperial soldiers continue the reputation established by the Clone Wars’ fearsome ARC troopers. Clearly visible in their uniquely detailed armor, the Commanders confront enemies such as the savage Felucians with deadly heavy blaster cannons equipped with a devastating stun setting. They are rewarded for their loyalty with specialized armor fitted with an internal shield generator capable of deflecting nearly any attack, with the exeception of a lightsaber. Most importantly, the Stormtrooper Commanders are entrusted with command over the Empire’s elite Shadow Troopers, with authority to call in reinforcements and trigger ambushes without clearance from Imperial high command. Stormtrooper Commanders typically hang back and stun the most threatening enemy, who is then overwhelmed by Shadow Troopers.

I also like to think that the mountain troopers that are supposedly first order are actually imperial, or could easily have an imperial counterpart, cause their armor and weapons match that aesthetic far more.

[@danielbridger7113]

my personal favorites were the sea troopers. mainly because they didnt just have a unique look, but they had very unique jobs and battles. i wish they were in a movie or a series

[@darkknights_22nd35]

We can all agree that storm troopers are the best hands down

[@mrfunatparties6763]

With boring helmets. The tc from bad batch looked better. The tank troopers armor look better. Even death troopers and their modified e11

[@timerdudestephens1]

I wish sea troopers and purge troopers be in live action Star Wars andor tv series

[@jeanvincent902]

I have a Black Series action figure. He’s a Stormtrooper but has a green light saber. I could googlyit but this is more fun. Thx for the help

[@karlnick732]

Shadow troopers were also in Star Wars Force Unleashed and Charging Troopers were also in the campaign mode of Battlefront 2 EA from 2017

[@user-Jay178]

So many cool variants and stormtrooper is one of my favorite Sc-fi grunt. Great video love the stormtroopers. Go empire

[@muhammadhabibieamiro3639]

I need this video so thanks you and also do a first order Stormtrooper type video

[@captainfluffy7232]

Ok so looking at this there’s so much vehicle specialization in the armor. I wonder what the budget for the Empire is because different variations with different modifications would understandably cost differently. Mixing and matching parts would be a good idea but at the same time any good weapons and arms company would make them a set and sell those instead.

[@17fxipe]

Death troopers and purge troopers are my favourites not only on their rank but also their armour is actually cool

[@piotrkucharski7990]

I hope we see more of artillery stormtroopers

[@capkhi5070]

Little did we know, The Fortnite Stormtrooper is an entirely Different Unit

[@NiiRubra]

They have been specially trained and equipped for dancing and dabbing, in addition to extremely rapid construction of wooden fortifications. The Emperor does not understand them.

[@marrqi7wini54]

@@NiiRubra They are also quite skilled with all manners of slugthrowers, grenades, rocket launchers, and various sorts of weaponry. Many of them are among the best shots in the empire. If only we could get them off the island...

2:52 Honest Opinion: The Range Trooper looks so cool

[@thestarwarsmusiccomposer3491]

7:55 THESE ARE MY FAVOURITES 8:27 Also, These Troopers ultimately had Gray Armour Aswell.

[@jediclonekag13]

The death trooper will always be my #1 favorite type of stormtrooper.

[@StuartLugsden]

Fun Fact: Stormtrooper armour is meant to resemble a skeleton

[@rc59191]

That orange 212th Stormtrooper armor looks friggin amazing.

[@Rouge_Gems]

My favorite types of Stormtroopers are Standard, Stormtrooper, Scout trooper Shadow, trooper,, AT-AT driver, Snow trooper, & Tie fighter pilot.

[@tonybutara9173]

Outstanding! There were definitely a few I had never heard of.

[@tk-6967]

Oh no! I just realized that you missed mountain troopers, from Galaxy's Edge or something! They look so darn cool, and have a Black Series action figure and everything

[@Sc0rpJoe]

I don't think he missed it, he only put focus on the Imperial Stormtroopers, while Mountain Troopers belong to the First Order

[@tk-6967]

@@Sc0rpJoe Oh I didn't no that, thanks for the info

[@middleclassic]

What the? This list is insane. I mean … I like Star Wars and all. But I had no idea the Star Wars world had grown to this. This obviously has become the center of many peoples lives. And more power to y’all.

[@HeroQuestFans]

the elite pink trooper with fuzzy armor and bunny slippers who patrols slumber parties for rebel spies.

[@dreworyan5652]

The new Beskar Troopers are dope and should be on future lists

[@connorhadley9028]

You should do a video on every type of jedi!

[@Bearmonkey13]

I clicked just to see if Space troopers were included, I'm pleased to see them here 😁

[@mr.tomasiorubinshtein]

What about the Nova Troopers? Those who wore black and orange armour? They were primarily featured in the now-defunct MMO Star Wars Galaxies, along with different variations of the Dark Trooper droids.

[@StarSaberConvoy]

Shadow Troopers are severely underrated :(

[@Stablemable2]

The "storm" in stormtrooper is also a reference to the storm that destroyed Kamino in the BadBatch episode. A storm that encouraged the replacement of the clone troopers.

[@wishcoincrab7096]

weren't mudtroopers (like the ones on mimban, such as than solo) part of the imperial army and not the stormtrooper corp, which from my understanding was closer tied to the imperial navy (think us navy & marines being closely linked)

[@Jaredpm._3]

Fascinating...💫
