Sorry for not commenting earlier, real life is a stinker sometimes, and my PTSD has been high due to those floods, as I was Dead Zero in Katrina. Worse than me being overseas. anyway, I am just catching up on the posts. I like the patch for medic, and I agree with Raider David, on the other issues of medical extras and the box. While the box would look cool for a medic to carry, we would need more on those details. As far as pouches to me, the SAW one for sure and then couple medical pouches, that Army guys carry and if wanting four, add an ammo pouch. also, medics still use weapons so, side arm as I like the holsters and se-14? Thank you Paul some very good stuff. as far as your last question, let us look into a few things and we will of course, let you know. Blackskull

As stated, the discussion will stay open for others to weigh in on these suggestions. BlackSkull

I like the pistol option, with maybe just the NCO's and Officers of course. SR14 are nice. Also, I notice the pouch load outs are different on some of the IAT's Medic who needs a Medic, I do lol Medic version would be nice add on, to have more than just an IAT. Bacta-Blue Markings: A key distinguishing feature would be bacta-blue markings on their arms, indicating their medical status within the Surgical Division. On the 2nd issue here is what I found: Based on Star Wars lore, Imperial Army troopers would not typically carry thermal detonators as standard issue equipment. While the Galactic Empire deployed thermal detonators, they were primarily associated with: Stormtroopers: Stormtroopers, particularly specialized units like stormtrooper grenadiers, were known to use thermal detonators. Specialized Units: The thermal detonator trooper unit, an artillery unit, used a mortar device to launch thermal detonators. Other Imperials: Other Imperial forces, including some officers and special forces like death troopers, might carry them. Imperial Army troopers (also called "army regulars") were the standard infantry soldiers and generally relied on blaster rifles, heavy weapons, and other standard issue gear. In summary, while the Imperial military used thermal detonators, they were not standard issue for all Imperial Army troopers. Paul some great ideas and I hope the discussion goes further. Blackskull.

Tomorrow will be the last day this discussion is open. If anyone has any questions on any of the IAT costumes, please respond to this email by tomorrow. Thank you Blackskull

Be advised 2 days till discussion closed. Thank you. Blackskull

6 days till discussion closes, if anybody has anything to suggest please do so before, the 30th of June. Thank you Blackskull

Yes, the IAT from what I have gathered. I was just coving my basis to make sure it was not mixed up with IAT Andor. So, what I am hearing someone was asking about possible subdued patches and some accessories. If that member would like to elaborate, so we can understand the changes being requested, would be great. Remember this discussion ends on June 30th, 2025, and will be closed. Blackskull

Wanted to also make sure that the member or members that requested the CRL change, is for only the Imperial Army Trooper, and not IAT Andor? Remember the discussion closes in 13 days counting today and if the change is needed that a good discussion needs to start on the request to change it. Blackskull

As posted, there was a request to amend the CRL for the Imperial Army Trooper, with Blackwatch presenting links to older content and reference photos. I will be monitoring this discussion to discuss the possible changed that the members wanted to change. The post will stay open till the end of the month, so please let us know so we can actively discuss any changes. Blackskull

I am sending them everything I have. They just got caught up from Japan

Just to keep you in the loop, my guy has not replied yet but I may have found someone that can do it. When they get back from Japan he will look and see. So some hope for both the comms and binocs

No reply on the email but i found his other social address that seems active, so I have left him a message. If he will maybe he will give STLs if he is not doing them no more, but I know he bought like 10 3D printers and such. If he contacts me, I will let you know. I will also be looking for someone that could possibly make those also. Beau

I have emailed the guy I got mine from to see if he still does them or can do them, please give me till he replies to me. Beau

I know I'm new, but with the Spec Ops I have always thought of making a detachment, of Army Troopers, one reason I opt for Lieutenant Sunber as a character. I myself am not opposed to Jason's idea either, and I like the idea of detachments.

I am going to shave my moustache and spray dye my hair black, then just got a couple of adjustments to make, before submitting for specialist. should have more pictures coming as soon as I receive them.

Thank you all, waiting on more pictures, to send in. Thank you again very much Hoda for all the help.

After all this time, I'm just waiting on my official word for anything I might have to change, and My LT Sunber will finally be official. Should also have both version 1 and 2 of regular Army Trooper this next month completed also. Thank you Hoda and Blackwatch for all the help this past year.

My August 15th update. Currently Condor Pouches is back logged, which I did not know till after 20 days of ordering. I contacted both the company I ordered from and Condor directly. So my Lieut Sunber uniform is on hold till then. Expected delivery sometime late this month or next month. So I decided to do a regular Imperial Army trooper, to which, I just got sew my patches, on and sew my back strap for my harness. I mange to round up some pouches for this uniform. My Seamstress has been out of town, so hoping this week, to at least become official. I will give a complete run down on my uniform and where I got my gear from, to be able to help anyway wanting to do the uniform. I had a lot of trail and error but finally after learning the ropes from Hondo and Black Watch , think I'm on my way. So thank you very guys.

He did mine also, and now he has it listed correctly lol
