Talk:Clone trooper/Legends

Views of Clones
"This approach initially gave the impression that clone troopers were no better than droids; faceless soldiers, ordered to fight and die for the Republic, with no minds or lives of their own." I find that interesting. Obi-Wan's comment of "they're doing their job so we can do ours" as the clone pilots perished caught me completely off guard. --SparqMan 14:34, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I think that it's a kind of statement on the ideology of the times regarding life. In the real world, recent advances regarding bioengineering are bringing us close to the idea of "manufactured humanity". - Angel Blue 451 22:26, 19 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Did you even look at the date? It's been months since SparqMan posted that. Admiral J. Nebulax 00:01, 20 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, and what's the problem? Discussion could still happen. - Angel Blue 451 01:51, 20 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * It seems very useless to respond to something that was posted months ago. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:09, 20 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Major changes
I really upped the Clone trooper article, adding in a lot of stuff from insider 84. What do y'all think? -- Xilentshadow900 00:24, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Pretty good. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 19:30, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)

The Quote
The quote I had: "If you sharpen a knife to its limits, you run the risk of cutting your own hand. The knife has no choice but to be as sharp as you made it."

That should be on the front page as well. It forshadows the downfall of the Jedi. Xilentshadow900 14:52, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)


 * 81.17.207.36 had removed it. Non-members editing articles because they dont think the quote should be there? I don't think that's how it should go. Xilentshadow900 14:52, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * That quote should be there, along with the one I had put up after you put this one up. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 14:53, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * I fixed it. Xilentshadow900 14:54, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 14:57, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * Neither of those quotations seem appropriate or interesting. --SparqMan 18:34, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, Xilentshadow's quote really should stay, because it is sort of a reference to Order 66. Otherwise, I guess the other quote could go. I'll do that now. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 18:36, 15 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Specialized Units
Shouldn't Commander Keller's Cold Assault Troopers be mentioned in that section?. Gonzalo84 23:41, 04 NOV 2005
 * Make an article about it. Xilentshadow900 12:20, 5 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * And we can't have it as "snowtroopers". Cmdr. J. Nebulax 12:45, 5 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Done, check out Clone Cold Assault Troopers. Gonzalo84 08_03, 05 NOV 2005
 * Moved to "Clone cold assault trooper". Cmdr. J. Nebulax 15:41, 5 Nov 2005 (UTC)



Found this photo, I'd like to know what unit/legion or whatever this clone trooper belongs to. The markings are just like those of the 91st Recon Corps but the armor has the common Phase II shape Gonzalo84 09:53, 26 NOV 2005
 * That would still be a member of the 91st Recon Corps. The armor doesn't have to look the same, it just has to have the same marking(s). Admiral J. Nebulax 15:48, 26 Nov 2005 (UTC)



Again, I found another photo, is this a Heavy Weapon's Specialist?. The source - don't remember which one - identified this trooper as the gunner for some vehicle. Gonzalo84 15:27, 28 NOV 2005
 * It's the Hasbro AT-TE Tank Gunner. I'm not sure if the helmet pad and shoulder pad designates a certain legion, or are there for some other use. Admiral J. Nebulax 22:30, 28 Nov 2005 (UTC)

The Prime Clone
The New Essential Chronology identifies Jango Fett as the 'Prime Clone'. Is there another source which states definitively that the Kaminoans used a clone of Jango for tissue samples and the like? I was always under the impression that Jango stayed on Kamino for that express purpose. For now, I removed the reference to a separate Prime Clone. Ywingempress 01:51, 11 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree, I always thought Jango was the Prime Clone. -LtNOWIS 01:53, 11 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Insider 84 specifically states that the prime clone was a clone of jango used for tissue samples.--Xilentshadow900 03:09, 11 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * I can't find that reference in the Guide to the Grand Army of the Republic article. Do you have the exact quote? -LtNOWIS 03:52, 11 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Oops, let me go fix something. I didn't read this before changing that statement. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 16:17, 11 Nov 2005 (UTC)
