Scout Troopers
« on: December 16, 2008, 02:19 am »

The Empire should get a scout trooper unit that is not on speeder bikes, and uses sniper rifles. This is good because the Empire only has stormtroopers as a ground unit, and should have the same ability as the robots that come with the MPTL's (remove fog of war temporarily)

Why would you remove the speeder bike for scout units? They are scouts they aren't supposed to be attacking, just finding stuff.

well then. 

Personally, I don't like the idea of giving the Empire more infantry.  They strike me as more of the tank faction.

Actually, I think he meant in addition to the scout troopers already in. But I agree with the last post: the Empire doesn't need that many infantry.

Why would you want a slower scout unit? The Empire already has the Speeder Bike and AT-ST

scout troopers are supposed to die if you expose them to enemy fire; they're not even dedicated combat units.

OMG! 2 things.

One:

If the bike blows up, WHY THE HELL DOES THE SCOUT SURVIVE. He just walks out of the explosion unscathed.

Two:

The Empire did not use varied infantry. IATs and Stormies. Nada mas.

If scout troopers are a special division of stormies, but now that you brought this up, i actually like the idea of IAT too...

They had a sniper corps.  They also had a commando corps and various others, including marines.  So don't say the did not use varied infantry.

i think scout troopsers should swich between rockets and snipers they should be in squads of like 6 because there not as good as rebel snipers being the white armor pretty much just shouts "KILL ME KILL ME IM OVER HERE KILL ME!!"
