:: INTRODUCTION - Stormtroopers The military soldiers unswervingly loyal to the Emperor, stormtroopers represented the most visible extension of Imperial might. They were shock troopers meant to strike with speed and accuracy, putting down insurrections and maintaining order on the farflung worlds of the Empire. Stormtroopers served both the ground-based armies of Palpatine's forces, and the space-based Imperial starfleet. Stormtrooper training stressed complete indoctrination in the tenets of the New Order, and individuals would obey their officers without question, without regard to the rights of others or even to their own safety. QUICK LINK: RECRUIT :: TROOPER :: HEAVY :: REPEATER :: ANTI AIR :: HEAVY AA :: GRENADER :: BOUNTY HUNTER :: DARK TROOPER

Attack Shields Range Trooper Recruit This is the basic ranged combat unit. The Recruit is armed with a basic weapon. This unit is much less effective than any other, making it an easy target for any mounted trooper. Recruits are very slow in moving and their aim is poor. Early in the game, Trooper recruits can cause great damage to enemy workers and are great for a Tech 1 rush.   5 0 3 HIT POINTS: 30 Troop Centre - Tech Standard       Stormtrooper Stronger than the Trooper Recruit. This unit is a Tech level 2 must. It costs just as much as a Trooper Recruit, except for the upgrade cost.   8 0 3 HIT POINTS: 35 Troop Centre - Tech 2       Heavy Trooper Stronger than the standard Stormtrooper, the Heavy Trooper has better armour, range and attack. It's good in long range battles but suffers in close combat   9 0 3 HIT POINTS: 40 Troop Centre - Tech 3         Repeater Trooper Stronger than any other trooper, other than Dark Troopers. They are able to sustain rapid fire upon their enemies. These soldiers are a deadly killing force, with no easy way of stopping them   6 0 4 HIT POINTS: 45 Troop Centre - Tech 4         Anti Air Anti Air troopers provide a good early defence against enemy air units. A great source of early defence against advanced enemies. Soon as an enemy hits Tech 3, watch out for Air attacks. Without anti-air troopers, you will be dead in the ground. Anti Air troopers are not very strong, so pack them in groups to be more effective.   13 0 6 HIT POINTS: 30 Troop Centre - Tech 2         Heavy Anti Air Packing two missiles, these units are more deadly than the basic anti air trooper. Again, they are more effective in groups and make a great defence in early stages of the game.   9 0 7 HIT POINTS: 35 Troop Centre - Tech 3       Grenader With explosive grenade blasts, this can help take out enemy mechs quickly. Weak against Troopers or mounted - but useful also in attacks on Turrets or structures.   1 1 6 HIT POINTS: 45 Troop Centre - Tech 2          Bounty Hunter Bounty Hunters are excellent at killing off any kind of enemy Jedi Knights or Masters. Built in the Fortress   15 2 7 HIT POINTS: 175 Fortress - Tech 3       Dark Trooper - Phase 1/2 This experimental Tech 3 ranged unit is more effective than Strike Mechs at dispersing enemy infantry formations. It can also detect units that are imperceptible to standard scans - units such as concealed Jedi. Phase 2 troopers have better armour and are generally stronger in combat. 13 0 6 HIT POINTS: 150 (phase 1) 7 2 4 HIT POINTS: 180 (phase 2) Fortress - Tech 3/4
