Airborne Trooper Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 That's the same shot from the Celebration Reel I posted on page 1. Wish we could get an up close look instead of in the distance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pack he has doesn't support and protect him in any way like our backpacks do. Therefor it should be FISD in my opinion. On a purely "sci-fi reasoning" level, I would agree with you. It's also the same argument that ended the HWT up with the FISD rather than here. My rational for wanting the Kyber patrol trooper with US is how the troopers are perceived through the eyes of the general public. THEY see: A dirty trooper with a pauldron, big gun, and backpack. Which is exactly what they see when they see us. WE are the dirt-masters. WE have the best supply of BFGs WE wear the backpacks. WE are what the public sees when they see the Kyber patrol troopers. They don't see shiny clean garrison-ready TKs. Just my $0.02, but then again I still can't get my backpack powered on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with your reasoning and point of view and this is food for thought for sure and I might even have to alter my view on this specific trooper. On the other hand, the public might see them as TD's but we have to decide in the end where which costume belongs. But we aren't there yet... And...I don't know if the FISD will be so happy to let the Kyber trooper go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from the bonus features, in the "Stories" section, titled "Bodhi and Saw." If you blink, you'll miss it. Wow. That's a big gap at the knees, no?

Asher Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Perhaps the "Jeddah Patrol / Kyber Troopers" will be come their on detachment as the sandtroopers of the MEPD have. They are not TK, not TD, kinda HWT but dirty and not from Tatooine , Mos Eisley. just a couple Emperial Credits worth of my thoughts.

I don't see them getting their own detachment, sandtroopers are sandtroopers and their gear might vary per planet they are deployed on...at least that's how I see it. But always interesting to read other people's their view on the subject 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
