Idea - SPACETROOPERS

By RazelKorr, in Star Wars: Armada

So we've discussed Boarding Actions before, but what about SPACETROOPERS?

I'm imagining an analog to Power Armor from Battletech. Maybe have them be a special squad that moves speed 1 and can attach/board a vessel, maybe sabotage it with a radius-1 ability, be able to board friendly vessels for transport, etc.

On the wiki Imperial class star destroyers carried about 15 Delta class stormtrooper shuttles which could be used for boarding actions using spacetroopers. Also cannon link for space trooper http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Spacetrooper. and EU link for spacetrooper: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Zero-G_assault_stormtrooper. This would add a cool addition to the game if they added boarding actions and added the Delta class stormtrooper shuttle as a unit.

So long as they didn't make space troopers the size of a TIE fighter.....

you mean these guys?

If they stick to Canon-Only...yes. If they manage to scrape the EU again, AW HELL NAW. I mean the Imperial Powerarmor.
