- A COMPLETE Breakdown of the Imperial Scout Troopers, one of the most elite stormtrooper variants in the Empire. See their history from the time of the Clone Wars, the many variants they took from snow scout to storm commando, and their blaster and other tech used throughout the Imperial era and into the Imperial Remnant that we see in The Mandalorian.

Dewback Troopers are the best
"Join the corps they said, see the galaxy they said, nothing about getting stuck on a backwater on a giant lizard"
Actually they were slightly specialized Sand Troopers, so they knew what they had coming
Also even if, "Dewback Trooper" was an actual action post name, you'd still need to pick that post to train for it
Jussi Raitoniemi lighten up dude..he was making bit of a joke!! đđ
@@derrickstorm6976 you forgot the part where they get there own tv show
I have to disagree. Beach troopers are the best
@@addisondeluna1787 Yeah Troops was a good show, too bad it isn't cannon
I've always liked the look of their armor and helmets
@Jackie Tang Same here, it's actually my favorite armor design for both Republic (old and grand army versions) and Empire in the Star Wars universe
Honestly Stormtrooper variants are always fun. When that Flame Trooper showed up in The mandalorian Ep. 8, a bunch of people lit up because of recognition. same with Biker Troops. Ezra even preferred a Scout Helm in Rebels.
@Kevin Murphy Speaking of Stormtrooper variants. My top 3 favorite Stormtrooper armor designs are Death trooper, Shore Troopers and Tank Troopers from Rouge One.
I've always liked the blue ranger elbow pads
Logan Whitney I couldnât find our other conversation so Iâll just say it here.
Allow me to be your 2nd subscriber. đ
Remember a scout trooper killed the Queen of Naboo
in battlefront 2 2005 i ran her over in a tank

@@scouttrooperhh-1487 on the source engine
@@scouttrooperhh-1487 Hello mate! How's your day of work?
You missed an important fact. The DLT 20A blaster rifle was usually used by scouts, more so then the E11-sniper.
Both scout troopers and storm troopers are elite soldiers, there're just no match against plot armor.
I agree
Scout Troopers are my favorite stormtrooper in Star Wars, and that will never change since I saw Return of the Jedi.
I liked the scout trooper conversation in the Mandalorian. How do you miss at just a few feet?
John Buczkowski bad blaster probably. I mean the trigger was on the side
Sakul I hope thatâs the case instead of Star Wars making fun of the bad aim puns.
@@stormycode16plays59 if I remember correctly when they shake the blaster you can actually hear something rattling inside. Probably aren't exactly built to last.
VENOMOUS75 probably not built for being a main weapon.
VENOMOUS75 but they still use it as that purpose anyway.
Hey Look! Stormtroopers that actually able to Battle!
*last sw game made them very worthy opponents
They also must have been really good with them because they manage to block Cal's lightsabre at the hilt, which is pretty impressive given the size of a lightsabre hilt.
@@justanotherglorpsdaymornin5097 Indeed
If the ewoks were wookiees instead like originally planned, would the Scout Troopers still have been disrespected by fans?
Probably not, but we still have that line from Kenobi "Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise" and they pretty much miss in ANH and ESB all the time
@@goodmind4940 In his defense the Storm Troopers on the Death Star missed on purpose because Tarkin and Vader wanted the Millennium Falcon to lead them to the rebel base and the Scout Troopers r not Storm Troopers they r a completely different unit
@@ArtificialDragon yeah, but people still miss that explanation in the movie and joke about aim
ĐĐœĐŽŃĐ”Đč ĐšŃŃĐŸŃĐșĐ° I have never forgotten it. But I hate people for missing it
ĐĐœĐŽŃĐ”Đč ĐšŃŃĐŸŃĐșĐ° In ANH they were ordered not to kill the cast, and in ESB they were trying to capture Han, Leia and Chewie so they can lure out luke
"...at the cost of protection." Yeah, because regular stormtrooper armor was great at stopping things like blaster bolts, rocks dropped by teddy bears, knives made from flint and were especially good at stopping pointy sticks. Those stormtroopers would have been screwed without that high tech armor.
As a side note, anybody ever play the old MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies? I can remember seeing my first stormtrooper and thinking "Alright! I'm gonna get me some XP!" Nope. They were cannon fodder in the films. In that game they were the soldiers they were supposed to be.
I appreciate this video
I enjoyed every second of it.
We scouts got the coolest body armor
Having Scout armor myself its funny to see the Imperial Remnant dressed so sloppy and wearing their knee armor upside down..Palpatine would not have stood for this.."Pathfinders lead the way"
Fellow TB?
@@explodedweevil5537 What's TB?
Lil Beanz The prefix for Scout Trooperâs TKID. In A New Hope, you hear a stormtrooper near the Falcon referred to as TK-421. The real-world organization, the 501st Legion, adapted this piece of canon and invented prefixes for all the costumes of their membership. Scout troopers are âTB-#####.â For instance, I am approved as TB-14056. Iâm also TR-14056 (Royal Guard), TK-14056 (ANH Stormtrooper [Stunt]), and BH-14056 (Boba Fett).
@@explodedweevil5537 Thanks for explaining
hell yeah a 501st boi
I do think scout troopers are superior to storm troopers. For only one reason. A scout trooper back hands Han Solo in RotJ and sends Han to the ground. Thatâs always been pretty dope. Plus I liked how they looked more than stormtroopers.
Iâm glad you got everything I could think of when it comes to information about them
I wished we got to see them in sniper roles more often
And that the empire in general wasnât just a big joke.
Like haha storm troopers miss, but then in the mandalorian scout troopers who should be expert marksmen can even shoot a simple object five feet away.
It greatly irritates me that in the OT and in Battlefront 2 (not the shitty Battle front 4 from ea. [ Iâm calling it four because saying two then having to specify a date is retarded and was probably EA trying to make their games better marketing wise]) the Empire and all itâs troopers are fearsome monsters but then in Rebels and Mando they get tossed around thrown about and treated as incompetent. Especially in rebels. It really makes the empire seem unthreatening and really raises the question if a five man crew can do this, why doesnât the Galaxy just get rid of the empire? They never bring up the fact outer ring trooper were shoddily trained because outer rim academies are less funded and less respected.
In mando itâs a bit more passable, but itâs still goofy they can shoot the ever living hell out of Jinn and canât land a hit on anyone else.
Like itâs sad that the storm troopers arenât just a pop culture joke but an in cannon joke aswell. Thatâs what the imperial ground army was suppose to be for.
Sorry. This subject gets me worked up.
One of my favorite trooper designs by far!
First, scout troopers are fu*king awesome!
I can totally understand why the scout troopers were more susceptible to having a complete breakdown. Being such a high speed, high stressful job. and then being clubbed to death by Ewoks...
The scout troopers can also be jerks. I mean, have you seen what they did to Grogu?!
Anybody else get serious Red vs. Blue vibes from the scout troopers in the Mandalorian?
I got those vibes as well.
Tag and Binks
Now that you mention itâŠ
Yup
6:48 *Battlefront*
ive always wondered why the first order never had scout troopers...seems that way at least
Val in Solo movie uses a holdout blaster 1:29 (looks same model) against the viper droids on the bridge...maybe they were used across the ranks, or were surplus stock? She had it with her on Mimban as well as Vandor...maybe it was sturdy, for mud and wet and snow too..sounds like decent weapon for its size!
Never got too much into Star Wars but I always loved this armour.
Thanks for this detail. Iâm working on a storm trooper scout costume made from mountain bike and motocross body protection. Functional and starwars themed.
ill go on a limb to defend the imperials by saying that the ewoks were frightheningly fast ans knew the forest quite well. and since they have used bows and slings their whole life they were expert markwoks
Could you do an entire breakdown of the empires Arsenal on Jakku? Iâm genuinely curious to see what they had.
*fun fact*: during the battle, the empire utilised TIE defenders against the new republic
ÎÏÏÏÎ±Ï Î Î±ÏαΜαÏÏαÏÎŻÎżÏ yeah.
It'd be nice if you had some pop-up detailing what sources are canon or legends respectively
Did we ever get a video on the Sith Empire Trooper?
Could you do the UNSC mammoth breakdown from Halo 4? Maybe compare it to the âClone Turbo Tankâ.
that was a great video and very informative about the Scout troopers/
Thanks I'll keep em coming
The scout troopers are the best they are the best snipers I've ever seen I love them they are so cool and your helmets on my favorite I wish I was a scout trooper
I know a guy who's Scout. He's kind of cocky if you ask me, but he's the best damn marksman ever
@@ScoutTrooperTK who is that maskman
@@marshalllatta2073 A marksman is another word for sniper, and Scouts are masterful at sniping
@@ScoutTrooperTK cool should like he can teach me a few things scouting
@@marshalllatta2073 Plus you get this freaking sweet speeder bike
The shadow scouts look amazing
Cool video!
Great video
Can you make a video on the executor class star dreadnought?
My brother used to take speed bikes through halls in the 2014 Battle front game.
My great great grandfather was a scout trooper for WWI Germany
minor request/suggestion = you could create a sticker in the upper corner for these videos that labels stuff as "Legends"
...
that way you can make videos like this and still contain the cool stuff that happened in Legends, but just with the visual cue to indicate when you grab sources from that type of lore.
I really hate how over time the Stormtroopers seem to have become less elite ideological soldiers and just became a group in fancy armour used for everything from traffic cops to security guards.
They were literally used as a police force from the beginning, what the hell are you talking about?
@@scoutman66 Nope they assisted the Police but they remained an elite military unit. Unfortunately, writers over time have devolved them into cannon fodder who end up as patrol cops and assisting customs agents and so have lost the fear of being an elite force you should be scared to encounter. Apparently even the barely seen Imperial army is taken over by these Stormtroopers, such a waste.
Ya itâs sad.
@@markgrehan3726went from elite fighting force to national guard
@@Sgt-lott10 Damn, that's a better comparison.
I bet post-battle of Endor Imperial warlords made extensive use of them for scouting/poking and prodding at each other while also finding new base sites to holdout in.
So the stormtroopers & scout troopers who died on Endor, died as heroes to the rebellion... Their defeat allowed the Death Star destruction, the routing of the imperial Navy & the deaths of millions of imperials... interesting >;)
That button on the hold out blaster reminds me of the Star Trek phasers from the films with Chris Pine as James T. Kirk
Easily my favourite kind of stormtrooper
Shore troopers take or leave it
PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON SASEE TINS SPECIES THE IKTOCHI
Taking down these guys was pretty fun in Fallen Order
thanks for your job!.someone have a stl archive of the great biker scout? thanks bros.
According to cannon, Luminara was killed by an inquisitor, not troopers.
Yeah thanks for being the only one on yt to say that scouts are elite.
There s any scout trooper of the firts order?great vid bro
What chad energy they just took some speeders though the hallways
Can you do life story of Gre and or Neyo
I always Love Scout Trooper Armor and wish Scout Troopers would appear where Stormtroopers appear
Scout trooper are the best troopers for I like when they slap Hondo in the faces đ€Łđ€Łâïž
We need the E-11s in Battlefront.
???? The E-11 is the imperial default
@@christophersalinas2722 E-11s is the sniper version of the E-11
I recently replayed Republic Commando.
Could you produce an overview over the complete story of Delta Squad (Legends and Canon) and/or of other Republic Commandos?
Love your videos!
I like their unique trooper armor
Allegiances is the best book for in sight on storm trooper life.
Randomly stick an a cog sight on my pistol... I'd probably have trouble aiming too
What about the Legends version of Kessel?
We need Dewback Troopers and Shadow Scouts in Battlefront.
I'm surprised the Dewback wasn't introduced as a mount like the Tauntaun
02:48 you can see scout trooper eyes behind lens (actor eyes )
Who is the man in scout trooper armor by the battle on endor that was arrest by the empire
Do the Warthog from Halo next!
I don't know why in 'Fallen Order' scout troopers are given stun batons and used as riot troops. That's not what a scout trooper does.
Clearly, the staff of Jedi Fallen Order didn't use the riot control stormtrooper. They should've at least gave them vibroblades.
@@AMoistEggroll It doesn't make sense, either. If you have less armor for a scouting role, you are not going to want to get into close encounters.
@@infinitecanadian But as a scout trooper, it would've been used as a survival tool as part of their equipment for such missions. Only as a last resort would it be used as a melee weapon.
@@AMoistEggroll Didn't it have to be connected to its own energy pack? That would make it too cumbersome.
Give Stormtroopers the stun batons and give Scouts the blasters. Problem solved
6:48 Battlefront 2 not Battlefield 2
BTW, how many dewbacks or Hutts could the 74Z speederbike carry?
All joking aside, could the Return of the Jedi helmets flip up like what is shown in Rebels?
Yes, the ROTJ helmets flip up. George Lucas got tired of extras taking their stormtrooper buckets off, as it would delay the production schedule, so he specifically asked that scout helmets be able to open to save time.
Thanks
Also Metanerd, at 6:48 you said there are Scout troopers in *Battlefield 2?*
Yeah the imperial specialist has a scout trooper skin
Lennart Zink Yeah but thats *Battlefront*, not *Battlefield*
@@freerealestate6531 ups
Lennart Zink yuups
I was wondering if anyone caught that
I like their electric batons.
4:23 holy hell one just tried to hit baby yoda đš
Me to
how do you even get the scout trooper in battlefront
So can someone answer this for me idk if scout troopers are good or bad? Thanks In advance
3:28 sad this appearance isnât in battlefront 2 for scouts
What are your thoughts on the new LEGO Star Wars the Skywalker saga
Well you also have the order to keep missing tue enemy to let them escape and now you are an example for pour marksmanship
Fun fact, scout troopers were the only ones given permission to actually SEE their targets by being provided helmets that gave them better view
Where do scout troopers keep their snipers while on the speeders
The one advantage Scout Troopers have over their Stormtrooper brethren...they can actually sit down.
As much as I love their armor I'd always bang the front and top of my head on stuff
i think one of the Ewoks is named Ted who is wasted on booze during combat but still succeed.
Their helmets looks like the mask from "scream"
My favorite star wars helmet...scout trooper for life.... scouts ARE the superior trooper corps
The flyest troopers in the Galaxy. đ
So that thing on their back was a backpack?
little reminder that the rebels lost to ewoks too...
its not that the empire is weak... ewoks are just overpowered...
One day I'll join the Imperial Army Stormtrooper Corps and become a Scout Trooper.
Are they stronger than ARF troopers?
as a native american that grew up on a tribal reservation, the empire getting owned by teddybears is infinitely funny to me
The troops on Endor were the Emperorâs best men
its my birthday
MisterSamGamer happy bday
Happy birthday
join the empire and become one of the best snipers in the galaxy!
1:17 to 1:25
Except those 2
Yap yap the destroyer Halo wars 2 lol
Stormycode16 Plays lel
Yap yap the destroyer Halo wars 2 lolel
Stormycode16 Plays you think those two survived
36 months ago đź
Where is our executor class vid
That battlefield 2 game
I always liked the look of the navy commandos.
6:47 battlefield 2?
Sean Dy i think he shouldve said battlefront too
0:14 What game is this?
star wars battlefront 2
So normal troopers are TK. Whatâs a scout trooper?
2:49 you can see the guys face through the Visor
These bastards sniped me so many time in the Force Unleashed 1 and 2....
They can at least see better than their stormtrooper brethren
The Pathfinders approve! Great video!
