RageAngel's Custom Units (Star Wars)
Ok, just a quick post to start, more coming:
Thanks to AllSkulls for the template. |

Seems like a really low attack, I'd put at least 2 attack.

Keep in mind that in the origional movies, these guys almost never hit anything. If they were as up to snuff as the rebels, all of the main characters would die less than an hour into the first movie.

Exactly. And they carry repeating blasters. While they can't hit much they fill the air with blaster fire...
So I figured the 1 attack with double attack means that they're not very effective (yet not pushovers), but with strategy (height) or leadership (Taelord, or ??) they can be a force to be reckoned with. |

Definitely a plausible direction to take stormtroopers. Do you have any ideas on the points? I would say 75 points or so.

Thanks Necro.
I just made this quick to toss up on eBay with figs as squads. I was thinking 75 to match the 4th Mass. According to the Matchup calc, the 4th mass have a slight edge against these troopers. But I can't see making them cheaper than 60 or more than 80. I have more in mind squads and figs in mind, but just thought I'd start the thread with the image I had. I was thinking to do imperial officers boosting their move universally and the attack if adjacent. |

I initially compared them to the Omnicrons (though we all know stormtroopers are no snipers...I guess it was the white armor), but after thinking about it they're closer to the Aubriens. The Aubriens have better attack, but rely on luck to get extra attacks. You might get away with 70 or even 65 for the stormtroopers.

Looking at the Aubriens, 70 seems right.
I didn't want to do them as vanilla 2/2 ranged units. I wanted there to be some flavor and a reason to draft stormtroopers other than "they're stormtroopers" There's no reason to give them frenzy... just seems out of character. But the ability to fire faster than most units with lousy accuracy seemed to fit. |
