Does that get out Ewok blood too?

Except perhaps Weird Al, who has aided me tremendously in my quest for my inner whitie.

Nice idea can we make the commander and squad leaders have officer uniforms?

@Mike:

There were millions of troopers, so the armour was mass-produced I doubt they ever had supply problems, and it probably wasn't hard to get new armour.

However, i like the idea of less shiny armour on Tatooine. I think it should be extended to all planets, while ship-board troopers should have shiny armour.

what if they get a new suit if the one the trooper wears is damaged?

in the first 3 movies(sorry the last 3), on tatowine, while the stomr trooper were looking for r2-d2 and c3po, when they escaped from the attacked blockade runner, the stormtrooper lost their shiny armour because the sand roughened their armour, and there was a hint of some of the sand cot on the armour, and since (i think) the storm troopers would only have 1 set of armour, the armour would have all the black marks and scars from lasers coming to close to the armour. So here's an idea. say there's one storm trooper who hasn't died yet, but has a high kill rate, but he's been shot at alot and healed alot. Lets say 0/20. his armour would have alot of blaster marks, visually showing that allies should stay close to him and showing enemies that he's an experienced fight or something. and a Q: I've seen some of the pic's and i'm wondering, if you commander or a squad leader will your armour change and have red, blue, or yellow stripes to show superiority, or will the have a completely model, ei: the officers on endor, death star jails. and yet again, another Q: Will there be a misson or map where you can explore the death star, and will cruisers in space be like the titan, with long halls, or like in SWBF2, where everything is beside each other. and will the final misson be where you have to get in a ship, fly to the death star and manuver through the construction opening to the core and shoot at it with the fighter and then try to escape the blast, just like in the movie? and on that topic will you be able to pilot the melenmien falcon?

They never get dirty in the movies, so they shouldn't imo be dirty in the game either. I agree that they could use a few scratches though, but that might look weird when all the troopers have them at the same spots

I think you should just keep them clean, best overall. Different skins? Hm, stormtroopers are always white (unless ive forgotten something?). Different skins on a stormtrooper model won't work. But not all will be white hopefully *wishing for Dark Troopers*, and there are always the black pilots and droids.

Probably shouldve checked the books before I wrote this, but im kind of tired right now

Those would be the sandtroopers, and most likely they will have an entire different soldier model due to the fact that they have many differences from standard stormtroopers.

I'm sure that alternate stormie skins could be swapped in for the desert maps such as ones occurring on Tatooine. Also the stormtroopers can have that little orange shoulder mount as well.

Would it be possible to fake some reflections on the stormtrooper armor by adding an enviroment map on top of the polished white armor?

And by the way..this is the Imperial Army! Any Imperial Trooper who didn't keep his armor clean and shiny at all times would probably be severely punished! The Emperor wants his soldier to look presentable. Just a thought..
