I'm really glad they let them be different. Paratroopers and advanced scouts are some of the wildest soldiers you'll meet. It takes a special kind of soldier to want to roam around behind enemy lines alone or with a small team. WW2 advanced scouts expected an 80% casualty rate going in. It was a volunteer only position.

I always forget that Stormtroopers (and their variants) are actually the elite special forces, and not the common soldier. They actually do have the best aim and skills among the Empire’s military, they just miss characters in shows and movies for plot reasons. Edit: seems some dorks in the comments don’t realize that the Stormtroopers make up a small percent of the total imperial combat personnel, with the vast majority being made up of a boots-to-the-ground, asses-in-trenches Imperial Army

​@Toast2005 the video literally explains how storm troopers are trained from childhood. Comparing that with regular army or marines with what? 10~12 weeks of basic training? Is ridiculous. The reason why you see a lot of storm troopers in the shows/movies is because the empire's population is ridiculously high and the locations we see are usually points of interest. They're not going to defend the death star with regular soldiers.

Those two actually made me think. If Disney Star Wars had a more chronological structure, i.e. didn't jump around in time so much with each show and movie, wouldn't it be fun seeing one or two Troopers again and again? They wouldn't even always be involved in the main action. We could have seen a Trooper contingent decimated out by the main characters and have an end credit scene where those two get assigned there to replace those losses. Or they recognize someone like Din Djarin because they have seen before what he can do and give each other some blaster scaring on the armor or maybe even injure each other so they can report they engaged him and have been lucky to survive. After all, Bacta heals many wounds.

@@ethanwoolard9668 Well, the first movie was meant to be self-contained and with the time between the original and the prequel trilogy it would have been difficult to built something like that in. For this to work you would need a series of movies and shows that are chronologically closer together. Even within the Expanded Universe it would have been difficult to pull off as there was not really an oversight about the stories. Considering that the 'Dark Empire' comics were rarely mentioned in other books and in those the New Republic temporarily lost control of Coruscant, something that would have eroded the trust of the people in the New Republic for quite some time.

Stormtroopers are highly effective and very accurate. The problem is our POV is usually through the eyes of top tier force users that redirect, block or freeze blaster bolts. Even the Luck that Lando and Han have is from low level force sensitivity. Luck is low level precognition which lets them passively dodge attacks and never miss.

The whole thing with being zen on a bike is the same feeling I get with longboarding. Get on a long walking trail, pop in some music, and go. Bonus too if it's really hilly since on the way back it's minimal pushing and the trail just takes you. Then you may come across a steep hill or intentionally seek it out and you just commit. You either go full on and zoom down it or you carve it like a wave(which is why I do, I don't wanna die lol), but still going pretty fast and is just a rush. Then when it evens out and is flat again it's just a really calming feeling.

Honestly out of all the conversations I’ve had in the military and all the ones I’ve seen from stormtroopers, the one at the end of Mandalorian season 1 is the most accurate. It’s that hurry up and wait shit coupled with boredom that makes it realistic

I had the pleasure of listening to my late Father-in-law's stories as an Army Ranger during the Korean War. His whole Military career would probably make a good read. He went deep into the North 12 times and never fired his weapon. One squad member did shoot a boar because he was starving.

Worth noting that most Imperial Commandos started off as Scout Troopers, which might explain why the armor of said commandos was just scout trooper armor but in black.

I've said it one if not a hundred times, and it's a well documented fact that storm trooper armor is the best armor accept against - slaps, punches, kicks, sticks, stones, logs, boulders, trees, sling stones, bullets, lazers, side glances and harsh words. Otherwise as far as armor goes it's the bee's knees.

Beyond the freedom of riding, there were probably other perks to being in the Scout Trooper Corps. As long as the scout trooper(s) did his/her duties and did not violate them, the position could have the privilege of a wide latitude. The scout trooper could have been the "go to guy" like the supply sergeant who ran a side hustle. Also, as a member of a small team, there were probably greater opportunities for personal glory and (monetary) reward.

It’s interesting that the imperial officers in rebels and most across the media look similar to the Ss while the stormtroopers definitely WW1 elites of the German imperial army.
