agreed, but the whole point of stormtroopers was to make them faceless. i heard stormtroopers were killed if they took off their helmets while on duty.

[@TheBlobster1212]

Garrett Gold Not killed. Around other stormtroopers they can do whatever they want with their equipment. The reason why they don’t show their faces is because rebels film their engagements with imperials, and if a stormtrooper shows a face him and his family will be targeted. Though this only happens if said stormtrooper comes from an outer rim planet with a good amount of rebel empathy.

[@ravioli3066]

And the rebels now have poor aim.

[@finleyvlok2763]

the reason that the stormtroopers armor is so poor against blasters during the original trilogy is because it's meant to stop blunt force not laser fire. The Empire hadn't had opponents with blaster weapons for some time before the rebels arrived and their armor was mainly designed to crush ordinary citizens who threw rocks and hit with staffs and such. then again the clones armour didnt fair much better against the droids.... very peculiar

[@Hellscream900]

@@finleyvlok2763 *puts nerd glasses on* ACTUALLY, its the opposite. The stormtrooper armor is meant to protect against blasterfire and not blunt weapons like sticks and rocks. You see them often going down after a blaster hits them, but the trooper usualy only becomes unconscious, because the armor absorbs the most damage, leaving heavy burns though. . In the most cases do they survive the hit and just need some time in a bacta tank. Simple weapons weapons though can penetrate the armor, thats why you see the Ewoks actually putting up a fight against the Stomtroopers in RotJ. *puts nerd glasses down* (Got my knowledge from "Star Wars Theory" Check him out if you want to know more :)

Great little film. One tiny thing: speaking as someone who has been through soldier training, I'd suggest that when your scout yells 'Ambush!' the squad would not be standing still like headless chickens, they'd be instantly going for cover and looking for threats.

[@thedoctor755]

It's what TK's (Stormtroopers) do :) Besides, not exactly camoed!

[@PreceptorGrant]

No, the white armour in a forest is never going to blend in. But you misunderstand, I was referring to cover, rather than concealment. Cover is a solid object which will stop enemy fire, whereas concealment is something that will hide but not protect. A large tree is cover, a bush is merely concealment.

[@PixelatedBlu]

I would say most normal peoples reaction would be to run for cover or anything(aka I agree)

[@PreceptorGrant]

Most normal people probably *would* be standing around like headless chickens, but trained soldiers would be hitting the dirt almost automatically, practically before their brains had even really caught up. It gets drilled into you in training.

[@newon2014]

But think about it, stormtroopers almost always wear armor, it had to throw them off being that trooper didn't have his helmet on on the battlefield. That's the strongest (yet albeit still not that strong) argument in favor of this squad.

@Andorian Nationalist you realise captain Phasma is a female storm trooper right?

[@kin-3877]

@Andorian Nationalist no. Clone troopers are clones of jango fett. And A FEW of the early storm troopers were clones until they were shown to be too susceptible to manipulation so Palps decided to start kidnapping and training individual kids.

[@kin-3877]

@Andorian Nationalist alright except they so actually say in the force awakens that storm troopers are kidnapped kids. And dismissing things that aren't in the movies as non canon is downright retarded. The overwhelming majority of star wars content is in its comics, books, series and games. And a fuck ton of that stuff IS canon. So yes. That's why storm troopers are individuals and there have been no clones in the troops for decades. Honestly disregarding outside movie sources for star wars is disregarding most of the star wars universe

In any situation where there's a civil war / revolution between the current rulers and another group on a large enough scale, there will always be someone who was a military officer who joins the rebels / revolution, either due to being thrown out of the military, changing their opinion about it, being actively persuaded to desert, personal events making them want to join or any other possible reasons, but there's always someone.

[@Robbini0]

@@JediG16 Tyber Zann was forced to join the imperial academy for stealing from his father's company, but while there he created a massive smuggling & criminal consortium, which lead to him being expulsed from there, which he took personally as an offense.
