imperial soldier tag problem

you may wonder what is wrong with the label of imperial soldier? in itself only 2 characters that are missing the label which are krennic and the TIE pilot. the tie pilot is very obvious why he needs the imperial soldier label since he is a soldier who trained to pilot the TIE fighters but the question they are asking is why krennic? I say that krennic needs the label of imperial soldier because if you look at both krennic and piett he has the same imperial rank of admiral


And if piett has the label, what prevents krennic from having it too?

    My opinion is that Piett and Krennic should not have the Imperial Trooper tag because, frankly, they never really fought as a trooper for the Empire. All of the Imperial Troopers in the game (other than Piett, which I think should not be one) are generic troopers. Like, for example, there is no one Death Trooper or sStormtrooper. It's just a person trained to be a trooper in the Empire. Krennic and Piett aren't, and as I mentioned before, they didn't "fight" as a trooper. The TIE Pilot should most definitely be an Imperial Trooper. To refute the past arguments, Imperial TIE Pilots were in fact people who fought for the Empire and were most definetely troopers. Yeah, so that's what I think.


    General Veers and Colonel Starck are imperial troopers, but are not generic troopers. I personally think it’s more a matter of imperial troopers seemingly being classified more as the ground troops who engaged in planetary assaults on-surface as opposed to the pilots who conducted orbital and space battles.
  • @HKFactory I had two things, generic trooper or a ground fighter. Veers and Stark can be classified as troopers, but Piett was, as @DarthVeritlyn said, a naval officer.

    In that case, I got nothing.
  • I feel with Tie Pilot, his deal is that he already gains a bunch of turn meter for each enemy with a debuff at the end of his turns, so adding in the turn meter he would gain from buffs if he was an imperial trooper, I think they would need to be careful about what they do with future imperial troopers, or rework Tie Pilot to prevent the possibility of easy infinite loops.

    Piett isn't a trooper himseld, he just benefits from the work that Imperial Troopers do and extracts the benefits to accrue his own prestige and power. He uses them without giving anything back to them (which is why other Imperial Troopers have abilities that give bonuses to all Imperial Troopers, but Piett doesn't) except Inevitable Failure.

    It's about character theme.


    Makes perfect sense.

    till today nobody can give a good answer why Tie Fighter Pilot isn't having it.


    I can give a good answer. Because pilots aren’t troopers. Go find an Air Force pilot and call them a trooper, see how that goes for you.


    Now what Iden jokes on your logic
