I really would have expected you to reply earlier. Now you only need to prove that they should get on the list.

Well good that youre back.

While I want to establish 3 seperate rankings, I dont have a particular order for them in mind so feel free to post what you want when you want.

 

[Wolfninjajedi]

Alright so...../finger stretches....

 

Here's the argument for why the Royal Guard needs to be on the list. Yes...not should, but NEED!

=======

 

Imperial Royal Guard

 

The Guardsmen are taken from the best Stormtrooper squads in the Empire. Stormtroopers being an already elite force and not only that, but they are also chosen from the Special Forces Stormtroopers. Regular Stormtroopers, are chosen from the best Army Troopers....so...no matter which way you slice it, the Guardsmen are the elite of the elite...to put it better.

 

"There's a reason why Palpatine's Guard were called the best of the best."

 

Back tracking a little some here, but before the Royal Guard came into effect. Palpatine had the Red Guard, them being members of the Senate Commandos, the best of the Senate Guard, who are an elite force themselves and chosen from the best law officers in the galaxy and they also rival Clone Commandos.

 

You can see where they have similarities. Now the Red Guard are shown to blitz group of droids, keeping pace with a Jedi and a group of them held off a group Magnaguards, even destroying one of them, they were also noted by Yoda as being well trained and Grevious found their moves to be appreciated.

 

Yet...the Royal Guardsmen are superior, they are noted as being able to defeat Magnaguards in 1 on 1 combat, have fought Jedi, have mastered every known means of armed and H2H combat, they also use a heavily modified version of Echani, making it even more deadly.

 

Their armor is hella durable, they can solo a small army group, they are blaster bolt timers, they have flawless/perfect technique in both offense and defense, they were considered the most feared warriors in the galaxy. They are resistant to Force attacks that could easily wipe out Stormtroopers.

 

I have all of this in quotes/scans, if people want me to throw em up.

Impressive. Finally somebody who goes in depth about the troops he wants to see in the ranking. Now the real question is, where would you place them on the elite ranking?

Some scans would be cool btw.

Tbh, I'd put them at or near the top. As for scans, sure...

 

Scan 1= From the best Stormtrooper squads and most feared warriors.

 

Scan 2= Take in mind, this is a trainee, they are STILL training and already their technique is flawless.

 

Training for membership required 1 year of grueling, painful work on the planet Yinchorr. There candidates perfected the fighting art Echani. Failure in training often meant death.

 

- Taken from Star Wars Encyclopedia

 

Training was 1 year, failure meant death.

 

Of the more than 40 students in a given training year, only a handful survive for their final test before the Emperor himself- a battle to the death against one's own training partner.

 

- Taken from Star Wars Encyclopedia

 

40 students in a given year, only a handful survive to the final test and then that number is dwindled further in the final test.

 

The Royal Guard is composed of an elite Stormtrooper unit, trained well beyond the standard of any other military force in the Empire.

 

- Taken from TFU Campaign Guide

 

Trained beyond any force in the Empire. Take note, that Stormtroopers go through intense training already and before becoming Stormtroopers, the best Army Troopers also go through intense training.

 

Echani is a martial arts style that become the official technique of Emperor Palpatine's Royal Guard. Palpatine had experts modify the original techniques to make them more deadly. The brutal Echani style is full of jabs, chops, kicks and other quick dangerous strikes, focusing on deadliness over finesse.

 

- Taken from Hero's Guide

 

Their modified version of Echani.

 

They mastered every conceivable weapon(including their weapon of choice, the vibro active force pike) and every known means of hand to hand combat(not the least of which was the terrifyingly fast martial art of Echani).

 

- Taken from Fact File 33

 

Masters of every conceivable weapon and every known means of H2H combat, not only would this include Echani, but also Teras Kasi.

 

Speaking of their Force Pikes, are pretty much lightsabers tbh. The only difference I have seen, is that they aren't indestructible or the power supply lasts forever. But they have similar cutting feats, can cut through armor, stone, metals, Magnaguard armor, bulkheads and airlocks on starships, etc. A slight tap can dismember a man.

 

The human aspect wins again as the Emperor's Royal Guard triumphs! The Magnaguard might be a formidable warrior, but this time one of the Emperor's elite makes him eat a force pike!

 

- Taken from Insider 108

 

Can defeat Magnaguards 1 on 1, you may say this is just a silly Insider quote. But considering the level of training and how their predecessors(the Red Guards) were able to hold off a group of them and the Royal Guards being far better trained, it's not unlikely that they would be able to.

 

Scan 3= Taking on a small army of Stormtroopers, losing only one of their own. In fact, what makes this more impressive, is that they lost 1 of their own and killed about 10 Stormtroopers just on panel. There was a cut in the battle, showing some Vader time before it went back to the scan above, so they could have taken out way more.

 

The amusing part? Palpatine only stepped in and shocked all the Stormtroopers, because a stray blaster bolt caused him to spill the drink he was drinking. This implies that Palpatine wasn't really worried and that his Guard could have taken them all on no problem.

 

Scan 4= An example of how many Stormtroopers there were, compared to the Royal Guards and yet those 5 Guards were taking them all on, there were more in the back in the next scans.

 

The Royal Guard typically wield force pikes, which they combine with hand to hand attacks during combat. They are also somewhat resistant to the Force. Allowing them to withstand Force attacks that would easily dispatch Stormtroopers.

 

- Taken from TFU Databank

 

Resistant to Force atacks that could easily dispatch Stormtroopers.

 

Scan 5= Fighting Luke and a Jedi. Although not actually showing, considering the Guardsmen's skill, they most likely did have a fight, another scan told that the Guard and Jedi did have a fight.

 

Scan 6= One of the Guardsmen was only wounded from said fight, yet he was able to get up and fight through Imperial Forces on Onderon, angling his arm to avoid blaster shots and shoot a Stormtrooper, killing 2 more seen on the ground.

 

Scan 7= Said Guardsman arrives at Yinchorr to tell his brothers what happened, his armor damaged and his cloak full of blaster holes, this implying that he was able to avoid them. What's more impressive, is that blaster bolts cannot be dodged by human means, you need to have the Force or have droid reflexes to do so and yet this nameless Guard was able to do just that.

 

Speaking of that, Slugthrowers are noted to fire bullets at hypersonic speeds. It is noted, that blaster bolts and slugs are similar speed and cannot be avoided even with the fastest moves in the galaxy. So this means that the Guardsmen have ridiculous superhuman reaction time and durability.

 

This guy had already been in a fight with a Jedi, then wounded by a lightsaber, than fought through a planet's Imperial forces, had damage taken to his armor and was STILL able to get back to Yinchorr and tell the others what happened.

======

 

So...yeah, they be pretty legit.

 

I'll work on Stormtroopers next.

Alright Stormtrooper time and why they gotta be on dis list somewhere!

Stormtroopers

 

The Imperial Academy Carida drew the best and bravest Army cadets, with its 2 year long Stormtrooper training program legendary for its brutality. Stormtrooper training not only included grueling physical tests but also extensive indoctrination, which produced unswerving loyalty to the Empire. Very few attempts to bribe, blackmail or seduce a Stormtrooper succeeded.

 

- Taken from Essential Guide to Warfare

 

They took the best Army Troops for Stormtrooper training which lasted 2 years, Army Troop training last 1 year, and Stormtrooper training is legendary for being brutal.

 

Ultra Battle Droids fought with notoriety during the Outer Rim Sieges, but virtually disappeared after the wars' end. Several hundred units later saw use inside the urban-warfare training zone on the Imperial Academy world of Carida.

 

-New Essential Guide to Droids

 

They went up against Ultra Battle Droids. These Droids being far superior to the regular B2s and much more deadly.

 

One of the several planets in the Caridan system, it was a large high gravity world with a wide variety of terrain. It was the site of the Empire's most important training center.

 

- Taken from Star Wars Encyclopedia

 

Carida where the Stormtroopers train, is a high gravity world with different types of terrain. Taking note of this, considering they already go through 1 year of Army Troop training, then the best of those become Stormtroopers, training on a high gravity world for 2 years. I have no doubt, that Stormtroopers would be peak human.

 

Encased in protective white armor and wielding the most powerful personal weapons available, Imperial Stormtroopers form the Empire's elite shock troops and are feared throughout the galaxy.

 

- Taken from Imperial Sourcebook 2nd edition

 

Elite shock troops, wielding the most powerful weapons available.

 

Gif 1

 

= This is a ridiculously impressive accurate shot by a Scout Trooper, not only is he tagging a speeder bike. But he's doing it while driving one of his own, 1 handed. These particular speeder bikes can go up to 310 mph....faster than a racecar and that Scout Trooper was able to tag it and knock Leia from the bike.

 

Alright, now remember this quote?

 

"And these blast points, too accurate for Sand People. Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise."

 

- Obi Wan, ANH

 

If you recall in EP 1, during the Pdrace you have Sand People tagging Podracers.

 

Gif 2

 

Podracers can go up to 559 mph and Sand People were tagging and even destroyed one. YET, Obi-Wan says that even their shots aren't as accurate as Stormtroopers.

 

Before someone brings up that Obi-Wan wasn't at the race. That doesn't matter, he lived on Tatooine long enough for Luke to full grow, he knew about the Sand People, how they rode single file, how they were frightened and come back in greater number, and of course remarking on their accuracy. It's not baseless to assume that Obi-Wan didn't watch Sand People firing their weapons, otherwise he wouldn't have made that statement.

======

 

Gif 3

 

Here, a Scout Trooper pretty much one-shots Han Solo with a backhand, knocking him off his feet. That is pretty impressive, considering that Han at the age of 17 won a Gladiatorial FFA and then later he beat down a group of thugs while having a casual conversation with Agent Jahan Cross.

 

Han also knows every street fighting technique that is out there.

 

To further expand on this point, that lone Scout Trooper was giving Han a great fight.

 

Han was engaged in a rousing fist fight with one of the scouts -he hadn't looked so happy in days.

 

- Taken from ROTJ novel.

 

Scan 1= Taking down Rebels CQC.

 

Scan 2= Darth Vader of all people, complimenting on the accuracy of Stormtroopers.

 

"Imperial Stormtroopers shoot straight."- SpecForce stereotypes

 

- Taken from Rules of Engagement

 

Rebels saying they are accurate.

 

Scan 3

 

Scan 4

 

= Taking down a Rebel Sabotuer, disarming him of his blaster.

=====

 

Of course, also the various specialized Stormtroopers and SF Stormtroopers.

 

No matter which way you slice it, Stormtroopers are an elite fighting force and are great either at range or CQC/H2H combat.

Edited January 30, 2015 by Wolfninjajedi

Just to add(separating this because my posts have been thus far long) for thought.

 

Before someone brings up that Clone Troopers should be above Stormtroopers.

 

I don't think there is really any gap difference between Clones and Storms, at best considering, they would be negligible really. Yes it's noted that Clones have rapid training until they are in peak condition, but this is washed by the fact of Stormtroopers own training.

 

It may be only 3 years(although Kyle said it was 4, but 3-4 whichever), but it was brutal, on a high gravity world with a variety of terrain(desert, jungle, tundra etc), fighting B3 Ultra Battle Droids, said Carida Academy being a prestigious school all the way from the Old Republic, wealth of military knowledge/instructors, etc etc so on and so forth.

 

The Clones while it may seem at a first glance, that they do have better training. When you look at it, that isn't so, it's just the more profound because the Clones are the good guys and have more better showings by comparison to the Storms.

 

I point up to the accuracy showings by the Storms, that is impressive no question and they were also noted as better marksman than Sand People. Then there CQC/H2H which isn't bad either, as shown above too.

 

There is a difference between them though, the Stormtroopers have better equipment than the Clones. Their armor is a little more advanced as is their weaponry.

 

If the Clones do have better training than Storms, it's again negligible at best. Their equipment, Storms have slightly better.

 

So in truth, I would put Storms > Clones on the list when taking all of this into account. As much as I know, many don't wanna read that.

Good points. However, I still believe that the guys truely bred for war are slightly superior. Nonetheless, I agree with you that the two will not be far apart at all.

As said, I'd put it as negligible at best. The factor difference, for me is the equipment they bring which is where I feel put the Storms over the Clones.

All eras.

[Wolfninjajedi]

All eras.

 

Mmmk.

 

Well then I have said my piece on the matter of who I think should be on da list.

 

I feel though we shouldn't discuss CIS or Rebels(except for the SpecForce Rebs) because they aren't that great, compared to the others...moreso the CIS. Yes they have a few good units, but that isn't so great compared to others, in terms of ability I mean. They are an imposing threat to be sure though.

 

Rebels meanwhile.....eh, they were a hit and run operation for a reason, they lacked the training and sorts that the GE had and honestly, shouldn't have won the GCW. Their SpecForce is better, although they are still given challenge by Imperial Army Troopers.

Edited January 31, 2015 by Wolfninjajedi

[raandomname]

and honestly, shouldn't have won the GCW

So true.

Edit: now I want to make a thread about how the GE would have stomped the Rebels, lol.

Edit: now I want to make a thread about how the GE would have stomped the Rebels, lol.

 

All it would have taken is one successful assault on their main base... Without their leadership, the dissents would lose hope and their cause would crumble.

[Wolfninjajedi]

So true.

Edit: now I want to make a thread about how the GE would have stomped the Rebels, lol.

 

Simple, just take out the Ewoks. Literally, the Rebels only won due to sheer luck in finding the Ewoks and befriending them. Otherwise, the Rebels had no chance at all.

 

Or remove Han from the ending of ANH, without his arrival the Rebellion was done there too, Red/Gold Squadron was all but destroyed and no one other than Luke could have made that exhaust shot. Although Han arriving is more passable reason than the Ewoks, but even still.

 

People rag on the GE for being incompetent and morons in the movies, but this is ENTIRELY false. The Rebels nearly lost their fleets and were getting their butts kicked multiple times in the EU too.

Anybody want to nominate/argue someone else?

[Wolfninjajedi]

Just on a note(then I will really go to work), but I got a couple of more Stormtrooper feats.

 

He stepped up and pressed the muzzle of his blaster into LaRone's forehead. It was an unfamiliar design, LaRone noted distantly: large and nasty, with an odd-looking attachment at the end of the barrel. "And if I choose to summarily execute you for treason-" His finger tightened visibly on the trigger.

 

He was bluffing, a small part of LaRone's mind knew. He was toying with his victim in one of the macabre games that these small-minded, sadistic little men enjoyed so much.

 

But LaRone was an Imperial stormtrooper, ruthlessly trained in the arts of combat and survival, and those deeply embedded reflexes knew nothing about ISB mind games. His left hand snapped up of its own accord, slapping Drelfin's wrist and knocking the blaster away from his forehead.

 

It was probably the last thing Drelfin expected. He stumbled with the impact, snarling a curse as he tried to swing the weapon back on target. But even as he did so LaRone's right hand came up, catching the other's wrist and giving it an extra push. For a single, nerve-racking fraction of a second the blaster was again pointing at LaRone's face; then it was past, overcorrecting and swinging wide to LaRone's left. He swiveled on his right foot, spinning himself halfway around as he held on to the major's wrist, and a second later he had Drelfin hunched over, his arm twisted around, the blaster pointed harmlessly at the ceiling. "What was that about ISB whims being law?" he ground out.

 

- Taken from Allegiance

LaRone(A Stormtrooper) takes out ISB Agent Drelfin, who had his blaster pressed to his head and his finger tight on the trigger, then brought him down within a second easy.

 

Now I know this is a character, but considering the quote

 

But LaRone was an Imperial stormtrooper, ruthlessly trained in the arts of combat and survival, and those deeply embedded reflexes

 

It would be applicable to just in general, plus it's not like LaRone was some kinda special Stormtrooper anyway. That and a lone Scout Trooper in ROTJ, was able to give Han Solo a great fight, the guy who won a Gladiatorial FFA at 17 and fought a group of thugs while casually holding a conversation.

 

 

For a minute Grave didn't answer. He kept firing, coolly and methodically, completing the pattern the range had set up for him. LaRone watched the monitor as Grave hit crossmark after crossmark with the kind of accuracy expected of stormtrooper snipers.

 

- Taken from same

 

Grave hitting mark after mark, which is expected of Stormtrooper snipers.

 

Grave glanced over, quick-holstering his own pistol as LaRone tossed him the T-28. He spun back around, lifted it to his shoulder, and began adding his own deadly sniper attack to the rapid fire spitting from Brightwater's speeder bike.

 

The raiders never had a chance. The last thing they! could have expected this far from the hub's private security was serious resistance, and the very last thing they could have expected was resistance from Imperial storm-troopers. Brightwater spiraled around the raiders, running deft rings around the more amateur swoopers, keeping them herded together as Grave picked them off one by one.

 

- Taken from same

 

Grave picking off swoop bikers with his T-28 sniper rifle.

 

The rider, the bulk of his attention on the stormtroopers, didn't have a chance. For that first crucial second the swoop thrashed wildly beneath him as he fought to bring it back under control. It slammed sideways against his partner, and now there were two out-of-control swoops flailing across the yard.

 

The second pair, coming up behind them, swerved hard to get out of the way. They were curving around to bring themselves back on track when Grave and his T-28 nailed them both. Two shots later he had taken out the two flailing ones, as well.

 

- Same book

 

Taking out more swoop riders.

 

Swoops also being noted as very fast too.

 

Again, while Grave/LaRone are characters, they are still just regular Stormtroopers and it's noted that what they do is just part of their training, so really Stormtroopers in general should be capable of the same, which is fair considering what I posted on page 6.

 

But I figure I'd show a few more feats anyway!

 

Ok now I'm REALLY off to work, so bbl people.

I agree that their feats are representative of the skills of regular stormtroopers.

Allegiance ftw btw.

[Wolfninjajedi]

You know come to think of it....movies....Stormtroopers have shown better accuracy than the Clones.

 

Anyone else notice this?....

 

I don't recall any Clone Trooper, tagging a speeder bike going 310 mph, with one hand using a blaster pistol and the other driving. I also don't recall them being noted as better than Sand People, who were tagging and destroying Podracers going over 500 mph.

I'm sad that more people aren't into this.

 

Oh also on another note, Palps Guard are a match for the likes of Rogue Squadron in space combat.

 

Flown only by the Emperor's Royal Guard, this distinctive red and black variant of the TIE/Interceptor mounts the same laser cannons and adds a shield generator. Used to escort Emperor Palpatine's Lambda-class shuttle and its decoys during the Emperor's travels, these starfighters are a match for the best star fighter squadrons in the Rebel Alliance.

I'd also like to add in Stormtrooper Spacetroopers for the elite list too. These guys are pretty much walking tanks with their weaponry, with training 2nd only to the Royal Guardsmen, capable of taking space stations, star cruisers, etc and so on.
