Riot control stormtrooper (First Order)

The riot control stormtrooper was a specialized 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,^[1] such as lightweight composite betaplast ballistic riot shields and Z6 riot control batons^[6] (which were resistant to lightsabers).^[2] They also carried lethal weapons, such as the Sonn-Blas F-11D blaster rifle, in case situations spiraled out of control.^[1][6]

During the Battle of Takodana, FN-2199, armed with a Z6 riot control baton, fought his former brother in arms Finn in a lightsaber duel, besting Finn until Han Solo shot him with Chewbacca's bowcaster.^[2]

Riot control stormtroopers were later present aboard the Supremacy when Captain Phasma ordered the executions of both Finn and Resistance technician Rose Tico.^[3]
