You can imagine my face when I saw that.
They still can't shoot for shit
[QUOTE=KommunistBear;43609175]They still can't shoot for shit[/QUOTE]tell that to the two dozen rebel commandos lying dead all over the corridors of a blockade runner
stormtroopers are extremely effective killers when they're not shooting at a protagonist

The 501st were clones though, pretty much bred and trained to kill. They're as badass as a storm trooper could get.
Well, mostly clones.
Actually, later on a lot of 501st members weren't clones. Even alien species were 501st. As long as they were good enough, they were 501st.

Not by the time of the empire as far as I know as all the clones were dead by then, and cloning tech was mostly lost.
Still stormtroopers were the elite army of the empire. There were still countless non-stormtrooper units. I guess they work on the ninja rules - incredibly effective as long as you don't see them. Fumbling idiots the moment you do.
the Conservation of Ninjutsu trope probably applies too; one is a threat, a group is an annoyance, an army is target practice
Space Ninjas.
All this talk about the 501st makes me majorly nostalgic for the Battlefront II campaign...
All this talk about the 501st makes me majorly inpatient for Battlefront III.
All this talk about the 501st makes me want to pose some god damn stormtroopers. Expect something different from WW2 by me now :v:
This will be interesting. Can't wait to see it.
In fact, we should have everyone do one star wars pose, and make one thread about it. That would be nice too.
