![]() ![]() ![]() In addition to stormtroopers, there were 404 officers within a regiment, with 2,453 units (composed of four battalions plus one unit). Stormtrooper regiments were pure combat units with no support personnel, instead taking what they needed from the regular Army. The Stormtrooper Corps, the successors to the GAR, also used regiments composed of four battalions and commanded by a Lieutenant-Colonel for a total of 2,048 stormtroopers. When operating together there were 2,425 troopers, 1,095 support personnel, 144 medium/heavy or 288 light tubes, 53 tanks and 199 repulsorcraft in the regiment, and it could be augmented with a repulsorlift battalion and three more artillery battalions. However due to some complaints by junior officers on occasion smaller artillery units were assigned at the regimental or battalion level, such as an artillery battery being attached to a line battalion, although this was not reflected in the OB. Officially an artillery regiment would be attached to a battlegroup and operate as a single unit. The Rebellion, however, proved them wrong and attempts were made to quickly revitalize this force. During the formation of the Imperial Army, artillery had been given the least priority of the combat arms, with the common thinking that artillery would play no significant role on modern battlefields. Line Regiment Īn artillery regiment consisted of three artillery battalions, one assault battalion and a scout company. The Alliance to Restore the Republic General Carlist Rieekan, when looking through the official field manual for the Imperial Military, Imperial Handbook: A Commander's Guide, acknowledged reluctantly that on most worlds, the Rebel Alliance lacks the troop strength to engage in open conflict at the regimental level. A regiment could also be augmented per their Order of Battle, in which case the additional units were commanded by the regiment's second-in-command. Only when the regiment was expected to be engaged in long-term operations (over a month) and there was no guarantee of supporting naval presence was the HQ deployed along with their troops. Usually the regimental HQ was stationed in orbit aboard a vessel, although if orbital command was disrupted it could quickly be dropped onto the planet's surface. The workshops were included in regimental headquarters because the size and strength of the regiment, being formidable enough to ensuring the capture and long-term occupation of a planetary territorial region, required extensive resupply and support Regimental HQs also had a large repair workshop and some were equipped with nanomanufacturing capabilities that allowed them to take very basic components and produce spare parts. It was commanded by a Lieutenant-Colonel with a command staff the same as a battalion's, with five staff officers of Captain rank and accompanying support personnel, however it generally contained more droids upwards of 200. In the Imperial Army a regiment was a combined-armed led containing approximately 2,500 combat troops and 1,000 support personnel. Regiments were the total number of troops and vehicles carried aboard one C-9979 landing craft. Vanguards were a sub-regimental formation designed to break through heavy defenses, and were composed of 1,232 battle droids and support droids in eleven Multi-Troop Transport companies and one squadron of 18 Armored Assault Tanks. They were led by an OOM command battle droid. In the Separatist Droid Army, regiments were composed of four battalions of 784 droids and a single vanguard of 1,232 droids, for a total of 4,368 battle droids and support droids, and 114 repulsortanks. However, the Republic also operated regiments of 1000 troopers. ![]() It was led by a Jedi Commander (usually the Padawan of the Jedi General commanding a parent unit) and a Clone Commander, also known as a clone regimental commander. ![]() In the Grand Army of the Republic a regiment consisted of four battalions, for a total of 2,648 clone troopers plus officers and support personnel. ![]()
