Title: Imperial Army Troopers
Post by: Scrambled_Eggs on November 17, 2018, 12:11:05 PM
I love Imperial Army troopers, one of the most criminally underused parts of starwars lore imo, butis there any reason to use army troopers over stormtroopers in this mod? They are apparently less effective than stormtroopers, but are the same price. If they were cheaper or quicker to build than stormtroopers, I could see a reason to use them, but right now they are just a waste of money. I would love it if stormtroopers were maybe more expensive and better troops, to reflect the lore, and then army troopers were cheaper cannon fodder units that were quick and cheap to build so that you could actually have a situation where you might build them.

Stormtroopers = 4 squads.
Army troopers = 5 sqads.

So if you want to split up your regiments to simply use them to cover ground, capture reinforcement points, and build pads, the Army troops give you a better ability.


Also, if youre using them defensively, 1 regiment of army troopers perfectly fills a bunker, so they're great for that.
