Riot control stormtrooper (First Order)

"Traitor!"

- A riot control stormtrooper to Finn

The riot control stormtrooper was a specialist variant of the standard stormtrooper of the First Order. Assigned to keep order on worlds within First Order territory, they were trained in riot-control tactics and given non-lethal equipment, such as betaplast riot shields and Z6 riot control batons (which were resistant to lightsabers). However, all still carried standard weapons in case situations spiraled out of control. During the Battle on Takodana, one riot control stormtrooper fought Finn in a lightsaber duel until Han Solo shot him with Chewbacca's bowcaster.
