Description
Created for the Galactic Empire, Imperial Stormtrooper Forest Camouflage Armor was a type of battle armor which closely resembled the armor worn by standard Imperial stormtroopers. However, instead of a clean white appearance, the armor was patterned in a mottled greenish-brown hue, which allowed it to blend into the forest environments for which it was designed. An orange stormtrooper pauldron also complemented the armor.[1]
History
Imperial Stormtrooper Forest Camouflage Armor, or Imperial Forest Camouflage Armor for short, was a recent development from Imperial Ordinance which saw limited use during the Galactic Civil War following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY. It was not routinely issued to Imperial troops, yet at least one individual, a Trandoshan named Sstrigge, wore most of this suit of armor during Life Day festivities in the cities of Dearic, Doaba Guerfel, and Wayfar. Sstrigge worked with the Empire to sabotage these Life Day festivities, as the Empire believed the Alliance to Restore the Republic was using the opportunity to hide contraband in celebratory gift boxes.[1]
Behind the scenes
Imperial Stormtrooper Forest Camouflage Armor was a type of heavy armor in the 2003 MMORPG video game Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided.
