2.) "Before Greedo – no, wait, Han Solo – shot first, George Lucas directed this "STAR WARS" scene from the Mos Eisley Cantina.

3.) "Witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational and electrical-taped battle station, the Death Star."

4.) "The Millennium Falcon prepares to make the jump to hyperspace."

based off this post, i present to you an au maybe 5 people will understand!

mercs/501st/rebel legion repcomm au*

*all dramatics in this au are based off of the characters and their dynamics in the series, not real world people, i feel like i have to say this because i'm a currently acting mercs officer

kal is an alor'ad, vau is the ver'alor (no really, trust me on this), and gilamar is the ruus'alor

kal has been the alor'ad for like 15 years now. nobody ever wants to run against him and the entire clan is dreading the year he retires. he never wants to retire, he's going to be trooping when he's 90

kal is ex-military (and in the mercs' military/vet group), discharged when he got shot in the ankle. he works as a substitute high school teacher, so he's mostly retired and treats the mercs as his job. he does a troop at least once a month, usually more

kal joined the mercs straight out of the military because he needed some kind of community and a hobby to keep him busy. pretty quickly he went from Military Hard Ass to Mr Rogers

he's INCREDIBLE at running cons, coordinating between multiple organizations, figuring out booth setup, managing the table schedule, and generally keeps things running very smoothly

kal and vau FUCKING HATED each other at first. they only got away with constant bickering because the alor'ad at the time was jango, who did not give a shit about the 'conflict resolution' part of his job and dumped alor'ad duties on the first person who was willing to do it as fast as possible (this was kal- jango quit the month after kal got approved)

before kal joined, vau was good friends with jango, and he's pretty pissed with him initially for quitting and leaving THIS LITTLE MOTHERFUCKER in charge, but vau didn't want the job either, so

the main reason kal and vau hate each other is that vau's dad was an air force officer (vau never enlisted because his dad wouldn't let him) and kal was army. instead of being reasonable about this, they build about 18 stratified layers of resentment

all their beef is external- they actually agree on most things related to the costuming clubs. they eventually start to bond over being annoyed by the same things, and mutually caring about their other club members. they get drinks after a small troop once and talk it out, and because they dont have Kamino And Vau Almost Killing Atin fucking up their relationship, this actually works. everybody is SHOCKED when vau runs for ver'alor the next year

vau is very happy with being ver'alor because he doesn't mind doing paperwork and merch stuff and finances (all of which kal is... pretty bad at) and he gets to be involved with all decision making, but kal does all the Social Organizing (which vau is very bad at)

mird is a fuckass little white dog that vau puts in various star wars costumes for events

alternatively mird is a doberman or shepherd breed that vau still puts in star wars costumes. i couldnt decide

vau does not talk about what he does for work. everyone is scared to ask

gilamar is the ruus'alor because it is his job to tell everyone not to breathe in bondo fumes or resin dust. this is my entire reasoning

he is actually a veterinarian, not a human doctor. everybody asks him for medical advice anyways

rav hosts most of the armor parties, she owns a ranch house (and horses), and also hosts an annual bonfire party. parja lives with her.

the clones are mostly not biologically related, but all of them for some reason or another lack family connections and have latched onto the costuming groups for that community. kal hasn't legally adopted any of them (he met them all at least as late teens/adults) but most of them refer to him as their dad/grandpa

the nulls are all masters of the craft. they have like 4+ approved kits each across the mercs, 501st, and rebel legion. jaing has the most approved kits: 2 custom mandalorians, a rotj boba (the madman), an arc lieutenant, stormtrooper, sandtrooper, imperial officer, generic jedi, darth vader- (the list continues and he has more in the works. he also is in Droid Builders)

mereel only has less approved kits than jaing, he has more if you count his joke kits. approved he has a custom mandalorian, a darth vader, a general grievous (yes this is a thing, you stand in the cloak and puppet the grievous), and a generic clone

for joke kits, he has a Bedazzled Mando, Sexy Darth Vader, Sexy Boba, a halo mashup, Male Twi'lek Hooter, Rainbow Jedi, and more

a'den specifically likes making helmets and has an entire wall of just helmets

all the nulls have lighting and mechanical parts to die for (whistling birds that actually move into place, fog machine in the jetpack, motorized and lit rangefinder, programmed voice lines activated by glove gestures, blasters with lights and sounds)

mereel also made an e-web prop

bardan joined rebel legion first with a jedi and still sometimes wears it but as soon as he found out about the mercs he made armor and didnt look back

bardan's lighting and programming game is also insane, he also likes droid building and lightsaber hilt building/programming

bardan has only done his jedi and one mando, but he's constantly helping everybody else with their armor. he's at every armor party. he's the best tailor in the whole goddamn area

zey is some kind of regional command/app team for the rebel legion (im not familiar with their command structure sorryyyy) and does not want to wear armor because it's hard to put on and rough on your body and also difficult and expensive. he's very good as a regional officer. kal only drives him a little crazy sometimes, they generally work together very well

etain is rebel legion with a custom jedi, and she's had mando armor in the works for literal years. bardan is about to kidnap her for a weekend to get it done already. she loves building blasters and helped mereel with the e-web

bardan is the clan's jor'alor (runs social media). before he joined that was vau's job. vau is ASS at social media and kept posting his dog. bardan actually would prefer to be the ru'cabur but he can't give social media control back to vau, it would be a disaster, so he's just also unofficially doing ru'cabur stuff (historian, lore expert)

at cons bardan usually runs a mandalorian history panel and includes a Mando'a Crash Course section where he gets the audience yelling phrases. he gets to nerd out to an actually interested audience for about 45 minutes, while wearing mando armor, with a power point. this is ideal for him

laseema has a twi'lek mando but prefers to handle rather than troop, she only wears her armor 2-3 times a year

i could go on but tbh if you read all of that already ily

Desert stormtroopers, also referred to as sandtroopers, were Imperial stormtroopers equipped with modified armor and equipment to withstand the harsh climates of desert planets like Tatooine.

Hero Forge Imperial Troopers

Happy May the Fourth! So even before I started my Rebel Trooper lineup on Hero Forge, I designed a handful of Imperial trooper designs that I never shared. Here are the ones I came up with. Hero Forge has a lot of great sci-fi aesthetics, but it’s hard to make them match up to looks as iconic as the Galactic Empire.

Imperial scout trooper LU-97 tracks down a pirate base hidden on a forest moon. https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D11795755/

Imperial gunner U-244 running diagnostics on her assigned turbolaser battery. https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D17230829/

Sandtrooper GD-864 readies her rifle as she scouts ahead of a Chariot LAV patrol. https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D11796669/

Stormtrooper VH-602 guards rebel prisoners aboard ISD Pyroclasm. https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D17230308/

Fleet trooper QH-203 prepares to fend off a pirate boarding party aboard Imperial freighter KMU-122. https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D17231181/
