TK:TK Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 I feel a bit ?disloyal? even bringing this up, but I prefer the old FISD motto (?Stormtroopers Don?t Need Mottos?). I understand that Stormtroopers have blind and unswerving loyalty to the evil machinations of the Empire, but "Unquestioned Loyalty" seems to miss the mark of expressing the essential coolness of being a Stormtrooper. That's my $0.02.... Quote
TK8280 Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 I don't know, I am pretty agnostic when it comes to Motto's, I wouldn't care if we didn't have one at all Quote
Butah Fett Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 It's not so much as a motto, as it is a description. It's odd, but I'm reading the Bounty Hunter Wars novels, and I ran across this and thought it was kind of cool and appropriate: Becoming an Imperial stormtrooper was no easy process; few had a chance of enduring the violent hammering-in of the military skills that went with the deathly white armor. Those who didn't make it all the way to the end, whose bodies or minds broke under thier drill sergeants' sedistic regimens, washed out of the program as corpses. An unquestioning loyalty and obedience to superior officers went with the training; any resistance to commands, however destructive or fatal they might be, was rooted out like diseased nerve tissue.

Butah Fett Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 Did I miss a memo? Perhaps a TPS report? Quote
Ruf Terrain[TK] Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 How 'bout: First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment Tall Heavily Armed Plastic Men in Black Tights and White Disco Boots Quote
TD2802[501st] Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 How 'bout: First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment Tall Heavily Armed Plastic Men in Black Tights and White Disco Boots Best suggestion yet. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Did I miss a memo? Perhaps a TPS report? No my Floridian friend...however Uncle Palpy is having trouble with the printer. Something about "PC load letter". Several have gone to assist, none have returned. Quote

The whole reference to diseased nerve tissue gives me a whole trip to the dentist vibe. Stormtroopers are white, teeth are white, coincidence? Other possible mottos.. "Fights Cavities" "4 out of 5 detachments recommend" "FISD. See the Whiteness. Feel the Shine" Quote
Butah Fett Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 The whole reference to diseased nerve tissue gives me a whole trip to the dentist vibe. Stormtroopers are white, teeth are white, coincidence? Yeah, but our teeth are grey or black... Quote
BactaReality Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah, but our teeth are grey or black... When I said our teeth, you know I was referring to our real teeth, not the helmet teeth, right? Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Crap, you mean I should be taken my bucket off before painting? :shock: Quote
