Fallen Order Heavy Assault Stormtrooper

[TheLoneRanger[501st]]

Hey all, I'm posting this here as I've seen no threads about it, not here or on the FISD or anywhere else. maybe on the MEPD but I'm not a member there...

 

Anyways, while playing Fallen Order, the Heavy Assault Stormtrooper caught my eye.

Would doing one of these fall under the Spec Ops category if it were to be done? Taken from the description:

"The Heavy Assault Troopers are specialized infantry serving the Galactic Empire on the front lines of war. They are primarily trained to defend combat zones as support squads to Stormtroopers patrols. They are highly proficient with the Z-6 Rotary Blaster Cannon, which fires off steady rapid, long-range bursts capable of inflicting heavy damage, and shielded by a low emitter energy ray. "

I'd like to highlight the words "specialized" and "support." Clearly these are specialists trained in using the Z-6 Rotary Cannon, so I would think they'd fall here.
If anybody else has seen someone building one of these and can link me a build thread to look at it, please share it with me.

But, I figured I'd get your opinions. ?

@TheLoneRanger thanks for posting and giving us info on it! I don't have Fallen Order so it is always cool seeing what is in the game. From the looks of it initially I'd say that it'd be FISD that gets it over us or MEPD (not dirty enough).

@Raider what do you think? I know the LMO's decide.

Hey @TheLoneRanger!  There are no build threads here for sure.  These days with the influx of SW characters, typically LMOs have been putting off any placement of characters in a det until they are certain someone will be doing the build.

If you are for sure going to do this, I can give the LMOs a heads up.  As far as the description...my personal hunch is that even though the words say one thing, the white armor and the TK build will probably land this in FISD.  Have you approached them at all?  If so, then I can speak w/ Andrew the DL over there and we can get the ball rolling if this is a build you will certainly start and need to know where to start a build/CRL thread.

Let me know.  Thanks!!!

This is a costume I'd be interested in doing, yes! ?I already have TK boots and gloves and pretty much all the soft goods, and I have a commissioned Z-6 that should be done just about any day now. I didn't approach the FISD as I figured with the wording and weaponry that the trooper would land here.

So I'd be happy to talk with whoever I'd need to talk to so we could figure this guy out!

Let me ping Andrew then.

Thanks! My username on the FISD is the same as on here. I don't have 501st clearance over there though, even though I used to...

Ok...hit up Andrew...head over to FISD and show the same to kick it off and then they should be able to guide you from there.  Thanks for checking here, but I think that's where it would land regardless and better to just start off in there I think.
