Clonetrooper, Stormtrooper: Tomato, Tom-ah-to

I don't get it, you want the bad guys to be great snipers or something? than the others won't stand a chance

I remeber in Rouge Squadren 3 that there is a mission where the storm troopers come to tatooine asking for recruits, i dont remember much (been a while ago that i played it) but i do remeber somhing about recruiting troops

Stormtroopers aren't all clones.

If they were all clones, they'd have had the blasphemous dubbing over that Boba recieved on the DVDs.

The fact that Boba now has Jango's voice (and ACCENT! WTF?) and the Stormtroopers do not, indicate that the Stormtroopers are something else.

Also, from watching the movies, I always assumed the clones are gradually killed off and replaced by human conscripts. The way The Clone Wars is fleetingly mentioned in A New Hope suggests the clones are part of a bygone era, and the fact clones are never mentioned again also suggests they are a thing of the past. By A New Hope, the Imperial Academy is in full swing and thats how new Stormtroopers are brought in - along with what Lucas said about officers getting preference for cloning.

I have always imagined that a really cool scene in a prequel would have been to have the Emperors statue being erected while thousands of young men are waiting in line by a building and walking out as Stormtroopers.

I am hoping for a scene like this in Ep III at least for the sake of ending this issue or adding some clarity to it.

in the old SW movies SOME of the stormtroopers are clones, while some of them are people trained at the imperial academy....

Damn!! How did this old thread get revived? 😆

Sorry, RS, but GL has spoken definitvely on this. They ARE all Clones, just not all from the same template.

As ever, case closed.

are you saying GL has confirmed that the storm troopers in the OT are indeed all original clones?

'Original' I do not know exactly what you mean by. But all Clones- yes.

I just mean they were originally known as clone troopers.
But i somehow missed the 'not all from the same template' line so i guess now it makes more sense.
