Every Special Forces Unit in the Galactic Empire Explained 

How very palpatine

@@seansmyth6247 Logical, too. Nobody wants another Darth Jadus.

hmmm Hitler did the same

its dictator ship

@@starbasednews5830 Palpatine IS Space Hitler.

Yeah, i was thinking something similar, they either have a squad of death troopers or something along the lines of infernosquad

The Trooper which they are a squad of is called Special Forces Trooper.

Gideion definitely had a platoon of death troopers

@@mongoxray5552 he’s got big cyborgs that fly and punch drywall, he’s got little cyborgs that sound like the combine and are still 7ft tall super-soldiers, he’s probably got some old clones hanging out somewhere being grumpy drill sergeants just for kicks, he’s got it all

@@Weeping_Willoe The robots were Dark Troopers, the cyborg mixered black armored soldiers were the Death Troopers from his introduction to the show.

Plus there are a lot of different planets so they need special forces that can work or specialize on certain planets.

we have also to remember not every special force is a galaxy wide working one like vaders fist that runs around constantly putting out fire

Also certain special forces units were centered around specific Grand moffs and admirals. Director Krenic had his death troopers, and Admiral Versio had the infernal squad so it wouldn't be a stretch for other admirals and important military figures to have their own special forces created specifically to server their needs

I mean my country has a similar ammount of SOF units

I love the Storm Commandos. They were very useful in SW: Rebellion to cause insurrections against Rebel forces (LOL @ the irony) to sabotage rebel assets, and to kidnap or assassinate enemy VIPs. And in Rogue Squadron III, they also had their own capital ships and starfighters, the Escort Carriers and the TIE Hunters. Escort Carriers are like what if the Arquitens-class cruisers had more punch and room for TIEs, and the TIE Hunter is basically a deadly rival to the TIE Defender, with shields, a hyperdrive, ion cannons, and proton torpedoes to accompany its twin blaster cannons. They were a force to be reckoned with, and Sarkli was definitely a bad guy to remember. I still remember that time when he and Wedge got stranded on Geonosis, and Sarkli hijacked a Clone gunship. Wedge had to use an Imperial E-Web Blaster to take him down.

I agree, and it makes sense given that they are the Internal Security Bureau. Unlike the other SF branches of the Empire, their mission set is different, root out the enemies of the empire from within.

I wish they were better in bf2, cuz they’re kinda just worse versions of the Arc Trooper

In the aftermath book trilogy one main character used to be an isb agent. The book goes over some of his training and his skills are seen often in fights

😂

If they do some jedi stuff in badbatch season 2 they will have to use purgetroopers too especially as the early purge troopers are clones and it would fit right in with the clone stuff in the bad batch

This is the way.

@@InventorZahran this is the way

@@ChaosSamurai I have spoken.

I suspect that Phase Zero and Death Troopers are the same. There were also hints that Purge Troopers could be also related to those Nala Se's abominations.

@@TheRezro 8o semmonen viikonloppu

Phase zeros aren’t cannon anymore. Dunno about the commandos

Aye, Doctor Jones looking like 007 [in the Wild Geese] is here! Haven’t seen you much on the Simple History videos.

@@tlshortyshorty5810 My comments get lost in the section on Simple History because there are now several million subscribers to that channel

The foundation, GRU Division-p And the G.O.C: are you sure about that?

Isn't that just the FBI?

@@thelordofcringe isn't that the cia?

Disney is too stubborn to make something that good, every time there’s an imperial view at all it always ends with them defecting to the “good” guys.

That would be so cool

Technically the death troopers in that novel are canon, in a way. The “actual” Death Troopers in this video were named in reference to a rumor/urban legend about a secret imperial project to reanimate fallen stormtroopers, a reference to the novel. It may or may not be how the canon Death Troopers were actually made.

@@ClonedGamer001 Wasn’t the project on the star destroyer called black wing? I think that was based on the red harvest incident on a sith world where a black orchid that was force sentient and telepathically tied to a Jedi. The ritual was supposed to require the sith eating the heart of that Jedi after consuming the orchid. But it was interrupted and everyone at the sith academy nearby were turned into zombies overtime. Palpatine had some of the data from that era and probably decided to turn it into a weapon. But that’s just my theory.

@@FordLancer “Black Wing” was the name of the infection itself, while the stormtroopers infected by it were nicknamed “death troopers” due to being…y’know, dead.

Easily my favorite Legends novel

Same one of my favourite legends stories

I remember reading that comic, those guys were pretty cool.

ARF troopers are basically just armored cavalry scouts. So in the US Army, think of scouts in an M2 Bradley

It's just black clone armor tho but I agree.

@@internetman- no it’s not lmao they look similar but definitely not

“Maybe if you idiots could deal with a bunch of fucking teddy bears with sticks we could be somewhere else”

“That’s the point Sergeant”

YES

I hate that she switched sides to the rebellion I was hoping we were going to get a game about someone that stayed in the empire.

Most if not all of them are not canon

@@abnercliff9624 canon fuckin sucks, so much lost depth and detail in lore.

@@mintz9782 legends was absolute garbage most of the time with no consistent lore and most content just being not good, most of the bad canon matirial has its origins in legends content

​@@abnercliff9624 I mean with original legends before old canon got put into it half of it was well just legends so it's always going to be a jumbled mess of different stories the only consistency it has now is whatever used to be canon

​@@mintz9782 nah, if you ignore the sequels, it's good.

They didn’t die right away, even on the easiest setting, and they certainly didn’t lose an arm right away… so I’d say they were resistant. He didn’t say impervious.

@@robcostello5802 You can also say that about the Storm Trooper Commanders, but they didn’t have different armor from the rank and file Storm Troopers

Unpopular opinion: I actually like almost all of it, the only real exception being the sequels.

Storm Commandos were created by General Madine.
