    “And these blast points, too accurate for Sandpeople. Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise.” He said, looking at a sand crawler with random scortch marks all over the hull that still looks fairly intact.

      The first bit of the campaign in EA’s SW Battlefront II was great largely for NOT doing this. Stormtroopers were depicted as well trained and professional, and it was pretty great until the light side arch started to kick in.

      I’d LOVE a SW TV series that focuses on a squad of stormtroopers. Pull inspiration from shit like MASH, Saving Private To Ryan, Jarhead, etc, and you’d have a pretty good cocktail of serious/intense/a dash of humor. Humanize then - make us set their indoctrination, and even root for them against the rebel ‘terrorists’.
