No, Chadd. They were droids. The Phase III troopers, only one of which was ever in existance, was also a droid. It had the [b]option[/b] of placing a soldier inside to command it.
They were not "elite stormtroopers", and they were not "trained a little bit in the Force."
But since you seem so eager to disregard canon to suit you, let me put it this way. What you are effectively using is a cheap ripoff of the original Dark Trooper. What Ren and I are developing is the original Phase III Imperial Dark Trooper.
So, simply put, ours are better than yours. Why? They're real. And we built them (as is required of droids).
They have, as I said, been in use since TRF first came to be. TNA and I threw them at one another all the time, as did TCF and I.
Ahh man those were the days.
Anyway, Dark Troopers aren't just limited to droids anyway. There are some that are extremely elite stormtroopers, taught slightly in the way of the Force and given a newly designed suit to work with.
I believe they were Mk II or III or something. Anyway, no role play is required to redo Dark Troopers.
I have no problem with people using them. But since the technology was lost, anyone who wants to must first rediscover it.
So do a roleplay, like some of the people around here, don't simply say "Here's an interesting technology that was lost. Well, I certainly have those!"
Following the destruction of the [i]Arc Hammer[/i], all knowledge and existance of Dark Troopers was lost. As such, IMO, simply claiming "We have Dark Troopers" is no good enough.
HDE is currently in the midst of an RP to reopen the Dark Trooper project, I suggest if you want to use the tech you do likewise (though I can make no demands, of course).
Also, since they are droids they have to build in a Constructionn Yard.
I know this doesn't actually have much to do with the R&D but...which model of Darktroopers r they? MkI (The ones with only a sword n no real armour), MkII (The ones with quite a lot of weapons n lots of armour) or MkIII (The ones with lots of weapons and slightly more armour than the MkII's but that could also be used as an exoskeleton for troops)? I can kinda guess which one ur gonna say but I jus wanna know if I'm right...

Darktroopers have been used at TRF since its infancy, rules won't just change now

10 SBD per 3 shots
EDIT: There, problem solved

How much do the rapid fire and all that crap that takes power from the shields lower them?
Edit:In the R&D rules it says you can only have 2 R&Ds up for approval at a time. I believe this is your third R&D for NIO.
