Colin1138[TK] Posted July 10, 2019 Report Posted July 10, 2019 I am 'really excited' to see the discussion over which detachment will home these guys. Design cues from Clones to Praetorians to Phasma..an FN base, perhaps in universe they are an elite force that would put them on Spec Ops radar. Lets hope we also see them ride speeder bikes and drive Walkers!Sent from my SM-J320FN using Tapatalk Quote

If they were say Kylo’s special guard then I would say they are spec ops, if not, then I think they would stay here like the rest of the Stormtroopers. Just my two cents.

Daetrin[Admin] Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Yes, it would be SpecOps. FISD is the home of white armor troopers (and painted white armor), using standard armor. All colored troopers go to SpecOps, as well as those troopers that have customizations. In hindsight the Sky trooper for instance should be in SpecOps, and one could argue the same for Legacy Era and perhaps even the McQuarrie trooper. 2 Quote

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Well in all my costume prefixes I don't have a TX so suppose I'm looking at getting one now It would have been nice though to see out the new trilogy films with the final Stormtrooper version falling under the FISD and TK designation, YER I know Spec Ops get's specialist troopers but it is still the base of a Stormtrooper. Reading the Phasma comic yesterday and there's a Stormtrooper with the id prefix DB, I want to be a Dead Beat too 4 Quote
hestonkent Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 I've already begun work on a 3D model for the blaster, the second I caught a glimpse of it yesterday. Will see what I can cook up in the little free time I have. Doesn't look like there's any good images of the right side of the blaster for now so i'll be interested to see what the other side looks like in the future. 3 Quote
LightBox Posted July 12, 2019 Report Posted July 12, 2019 Sounds interesting. The blaster is quite a cool addition to it! Looks a bit more sci-fi, though. I wonder if we'll more of it. Quote
