Urban
Guerillas
Rebel Urban Guerillas
are one of the common branches of the Rebel Alliance's SpecForces.
They place emphasis on making do with whatever materials that are
on hand. As their name implies, Rebel Urban Guerillas use hit-and-run
tactics. They also conduct sniper attacks from rooftops and use
dark alleys to lob home-made explosives at their targets, after
which they escape to a new position before enemy troops can pin
them down.
Rebel Urban Guerillas
are experts in exploiting the confines of constricted urban terrain
to their advantage, such as the streets, buildings, and sewers.
Thus due to their capabilities, they are able to engage enemy troops
that outnumber them by several times. Rebel Guerilla cells have
been the nemesis of many Imperial Governors, spreading insurrection
and revolt wherever they travel. Unfortunately, the Rebels have
effectively used their Urban Guerillas to initiate uprisings on
many worlds under Imperial control. The Urban Guerillas are transported
to the targeted planet, from which they begin recruitment and training
of the local inhabitants. They lead the locals in combat until they
are capable of taking over the operations themselves.
Infiltrators
Rebel Infiltrators
are the Rebel Alliance's elite commandos and are the eyes and ears
of the Rebels' SpecForces. They are trained to slip through the
enemy's lines in order to create confusion and paralysing fear in
secure areas. They are unfortunately able to enter and sabotage
even the most heavily guarded Imperial installations. They are masters
of stealth, able to foil most mechanical and Human security measures.
Those who
fill the ranks of the Rebel Infiltrators are chosen from those in
the Rebel Alliance with the most reason to loath the Empire. After
the Battle of Hoth and sometime before the Battle of Endor, a traitor,
Imperial Colonel Beri Tulon trained the Infiltrators to attach themselves
to Imperial vehicles, quickly cut through the weakest point in the
armour and get inside the vehicle to seize control of it. With good
reason, they are among the most feared of all the Rebel SpecForce
troopers.
Troopers
The Rebel Trooper is
a Rebel soldier who has dedicated their life to the cause of the
Rebellion. Many of these Rebel volunteers do not conform to the
"mold", as they have left their former non-military lives
to become part of the Rebellion against the Galactic Empire. These
troopers can be found stationed on Rebel ships assigned to protect
certain important Rebels or to protect Rebel bases. Besides those
duties, Rebel Troopers are also used for missions against Imperial
Forces
Space
Marine Corps
Marine regiments
are trained to fight onboard ships, either to repel boarders or
to board and take over hostile enemy vessels. Marines receive special
training in 0-Gee and space suit/battle armor combat, corridor fighting,
hand-to-hand combat, space survival, and some starship repair skills.
Marines are typically armed with blaster pistols, rifles, grenades
and vibroweapons of many sorts. A platoon might have access to light
or medium repeating blasters, but these weapons are generally too
indiscriminate, to employ inside a starship. Marines are also sometimes
equipped with space suits, when they're available and in need of
for certain missions. The Alliance Space Marine Corps is tasked
generally with all security matters on Alliance starships, space
stations and other naval outposts.
