    The biggest issue for Storm Troopers was their armour was only camoflauged if they were stationed at a _art deco installation._
    And keeping it polished and clean was a pain, having to bleach armour is time. consuming - and you have to rinse it thoroughly so it won't ruin the bodysuit.

      The armor makes sense for people on starships since you would like to stick out if you get ventilated into space. But groundside troops definitely should have some decent camo, especially on garrison.

    I never liked how the Stormtroopers, both Imperial and First Order work. They both ignore what makes soldiers fight well in real life. Individual effectiveness is absolutely worthless, everyone needs to work as a team. The First Order is WAY worse than the Empire in that regard. And Stormtroopers not having squads set in stone and only recognizing ID numbers is just absolutely terrible. Yes, it means losses in a fight aren't going to weigh nearly as heavily on individual troops... But if you don't care about the people to your right and left in a fight, you're not going to fight nearly as effectively. In real life, some soldiers put themselves in absurdly dangerous situations and are extremely combat effective simply because they're trying to make sure their buddies have a better chance at going back home. If you want the most effective troops you don't need the absurd comic-book evil approach the Empire and First Order take. Let them all get drunk together and have extra credits to blow on dumb shit, and make sure they get decent food. Shy of effective training, that's pretty much all you need to have troops that fight hard.

      Competent villains/opposition would crush the "heroes" easily, since "heroes" are way too often ridiculously dependent on plot armor, luck, "rule of cool" and the OpFor being utterly useless to succeed. Its predictable and dull. Its cheap.
      Making the bad guys competent would make the heroes that much more impressive since they have to legitimately overcome that too. A real challenge.
      But plot armor look good on camera and its so much easier to write flashy-explody scenes.

    The anonymity of Storm Troopers I think really fits with their profile. So the fearlessness, and not just personal fearlessness but also lack of concern for casualties makes sense if you don't even know the other people in your squad let alone company or battalion - they're just numbers to you.
    Also... I think I'd rather join the Imperial Navy. Stormtroopers look cool but I don't fancy patrolling streets where every corner could be someone's ambush XD And Star Destroyers are awesome.

The pistol round, while the same diameter, is going to have a shorter bullet and a smaller case than the BMG round. While a lucky shot can potentially take out a plane it's not likely to happen though. Fired out of a pistol the round isn't going to have enough velocity to hit a plane unless it's parked, the barrel is just too short. Not to mention that even with a carbine or rifle length barrel, it's doubtful that the round has enough of a powder charge to hit a flying aircraft.

      to be honest their blaster rifles are accurate and they are trained... in shooting... but not in calibrating their sights... especially in later years of fighting rebels. battlefront games are proof... most stormtrooper only miss shots when shooting "main or story important characters" who has "plot armour" of the force

    If I was an imperial I would pick to be a regular imperial trooper like the ones in" Solo: A Star Wars Story" . As a former Infantry Grunt I can say that I hated "dog & pony show " inspections. I'm not fond of the recording helmets, and also properly aiming a long gun with a full face helmet is difficult. I prefer the open face helmet. The regular imperial troopers seemed more chill. Like "we survived a battle let's party" rather than stick up the ass, try hard storm troopers. Plus I wouldn't want all that armor. Breast plate and open face helmet with goggles is fine for me. 😊👍

      They're, supposedly, not seeing directly through the lenses but through small cameras in the lenses which then projects an image in front of their eyes. According to some background source material, the helmets are also keyed to the individual Stormtrooper wearing it so it only really worked for that particular Stormtrooper, which is why Rex had a hard time seeing out of it.

    The Stormtroopers were an occupying force of the galaxy. They probably were not well-liked generally, but (as long as you aren’t ordered to blast someone in cold blood) work is work.
    If I had been born in the Star Wars galaxy I imagine I probably would have entered into whatever occupation on the world where I was born. I probably would have traveled a for a few years as a youth (probably as part of a bulk freighter crew) done some adventuring and seat-of-the-pants money making as part of a light freighter crew. As I grew older I would probably have and settled down in a white-collar occupation of some variety on my home world, or nearby system, to raise a family. I imagine my old life would come back to haunt me at some point and I’d have to hit the hyperspace lanes again, but this time with my family.

I don’t exactly remember what they were saying, but it definitely wasn’t about their duties. If anyone rewatches the movie, tell me what they said.

    With the uniformity of the stormtrooper corps, it's harder to single out weak targets. You can't pick out the new thin guy or tell if a soldier has wounds from previous battles. The rebels would have to just pick targets randomly. You can't even request fire on an individual, the machine Gunner would be like "what ya mean, white one beside the tree"? I learned the importance of this playing world of tanks. Literally impossible when fighting the empire.

We saw the Rebels use proper room clearing and patrolling techniques in Rogue One, why not the Stormtroopers?
