"This next one goes out to the Mud-Jumpers of the 224th, slugging it out on Mimban. Keep your heads down and your seals tight, boys."

The 224th Imperial Armored Division, previously the 224th Division under the Galactic Republic, was an Imperial Army unit in service during the reign of the Galactic Empire.

HistoryEdit

Clone WarsEdit

During the Clone Wars, it was known as the 224th Division[2] of the Grand Army of the Republic. A detachment of the 224th known as the Mud Jumpers fought on Mimban alongside The 501st Legion under Jedi General Laan Tik. During the fight, General Tik was killed and the clones were forced to fall back.[4] While in combat on Mimban, the 224th's Mud Jumpers were given a song by a Hologram VJ of the Grand Army of the Republic's broadcast.[3]

Galactic EmpireEdit

When the Republic reorganized into the Galactic Empire in 19 BBY, the planet once again experienced an incursion from an external enemy: their former brothers-in-arms. The Imperials returned to the once-allied planet as conquerors, seeking to procure the abundant natural resources that existed on the swampy world. The initial invasion began in 10 BBY and consisted of Imperial commanders throwing their subordinates at the enemy lines, hoping to secure what little ground they could, no matter the casualties.

EquipmentEdit

Under the Empire, the 224th Imperial Armored Division utilized All Terrain Defense Turrets as mobile artillery, Y-45 armored transport hauler airborne transports, and both wet-weather gear stormtroopers and swamp troopers as specialized swamp terrain infantry.[1]
