These highly trained soldiers served as the frontline infantry, tasked with defending the Republic against the Sith Empire.

Troopers underwent rigorous training programs, mastering a range of combat skills including blaster proficiency, close-quarters combat, and tactical maneuvering. They were often deployed in diverse environments, from urban battlefields to hostile alien planets, requiring adaptability and resilience.
