The Stormtroopers are so weak

[Felix76]

The stormtroopers are so f******* weak
As a comparison:
Stormtrooper

• Best equipment
  
• Military training duration from above 3 years
  
• Has a high morality, fight until death
  
• Often a group from 18 Stormtrooper

Rebel(scum)

• Some stolen equipment and poor quality
  
• Short time of training
  
• Easy to breaking morale
  
• Not more then 9

3 groups from rebels against 18 stormtroopers.
All strormtroopers die, because of some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ rocket luncher and some hitts from the blaster.
Yeah nice.

Change a few lines in some game files, and u can modify the game whatever u want it to be^^

The AT-AT's stomp everything, except for Garm Bel Iblis or whatever his name is. However, that is a hero, the rebellion only has one, meanwhile your AT-ATs in numbers can easily defeat any rebel force. Just watch out for chewie.

Just use take cover and hold on until the AT-AT's arrive.

I've always seen the stormtroopers as galactic police rather than a proper army. well it's my head cannon to explain why there so bad.

[Vakarian]

Stormtroopers like much else of the empire are suppose to be quantity, not "quality". Rebels instead are the opposite... Stormtroopers aiming is truly not the best^^

Guerilla warfare... United States backed out of Vietnam because of Ho Chi Minh's hit and run tactics, along with blending in with the people and the terrain.

On top of that, stormtroopers can't aim worth a damn in the movies

And you can just mod the game if you're so butthurt that your faction's soldiers aren't overpowering everyone else.

The US lost politically, not militarily. Don't know why people dont understand that lol. If the US population supported the war the world would be different right now. But yeah, stormtroppers are fine, vakarian already said it, quantity over quality.

That's Not entirely true... did play somewhat of a role, but that's for a later discussion.

Well, technically, they could have just nuked Vietnam back to beyond the stone age, if their population would have been willing to condone such drastic measures...

Prevent the spread of communism by nuking it. Heh, it might just have worked.

Yeah nice.

Rebell Soldiers : No Armor ( or maybe light one )
Stormtroopers : heavy Armor ( but can be killed with a f** Stone - you can see it on the Endor Battle )

-----
But the Clonetrooper Armor can survive some shoots ( you can see it in the Movie. Many wounded Clonetroopers )

And the Stormtrooper Armor is a "upgraded" Version from the Clonetrooper one ( Years later ) so it must be better ( but feels like Paper )

Every stupid example, he is asking, that why is it that supposedly better troops, with better equipment die alot more compared to a bunch of ragtag rebel group.

So, you proceed to bring in an example, where the superior U.S. troops indeed have a much better kill to death ratio, than the vietcong.

He wasn't talking about losing, but losing more troops, than the underequipped and trained enemy.

Lucas didn't watch his own movies, so every Prequel is suspect.

Soldier vs. soldier they have the same small-arms fire and some form of armor. We see in the movies that most blaster wounds kill regardless of white plastic or cloth.

Most of the casualties in the vietcong and NVA were from air dominance and less soldier-to-soldier fighting

WRONG, Sending untrained 19 year old conscripts to fight a war thay did not
want to fight is why they lost. America only win if they have strong allies.
You are right though. America does lack the "political" will to win wars, that is
why they require strong allies like Australia.

If the US military personnal went back in time with they training they have now, but the same tech as 60s it'd be the same. Aside from a few that are trained for guerrilla warfare. To be honest, considering for every US death 2 - 10 viet cong died we might wanna switch back to that training.
