"Remember two things about the Storm Troopers, one they are not the common rank and file they are so much more and second although not elites by any means they can sure as hell pack a punch."

- Unknown Officer

Storm Troopers are not the common rank and file of the Custudo instead they are a form of heavy troops but also highly adaptable ones as well. While Shock Troopers are for special ops missions Storm Troopers are the troops at the head of a column the ones checking the enemies advance. They are also the most adaptable troops the Empire has (The entire reason they where created)

Storm Troopers are part of the Orphani, meaning that it's members are recruited from the orphans and rejects of the Empire turned into something more then just a common street beggar. Storm Troopers are a very vital link in the Custudo while all other ranks have a specific role the Storm Troopers are made to adapt to any situation. Their weapons and gear reflect this.

The Basic weapon of the Storm Troopers is the M-27 which comes in a laser or plasma model. The M-27 is able to be switched into a variety of modes (By use of different power levels in battery and attachments carried by the Storm Trooper) the modes include: Rifle (1 and 3 round burst or full auto), Sniper (By use of a barrel attachment which increases range and adds a few sensors to the weapon to help with aiming), and grenade launcher/beam fire (Plasma variants have the grenade launcher attachment while the laser variants have the beam fire attachment)

The Armor a Storm Trooper wears is does not just offer a wonderful amount of protection and movement it also has a series of scanners and HUD as well as what the Rin call Ansible (Communication network) and ATM (Automatic Terrain Map) which give the Storm Troopers a almost 360 view of the battlefield.

Storm Troopers are also given a jump pack, combat sword/dagger, and a energy pack for both the M-27's needs and the suits. The Storm Troopers are made to be both flexible and adaptable to help better adapt and fight to new technologies and species.

So far storm troopers have been highly successful with teams being the equals to other factions more elite troops like Centurions, Arcanii, and many others.
