How do Tie pilot and Royal guard not count as troopers?

Troopers are basically soldiers, no matter what. Furthermore, in the background, TIE Pilots and Royal Guards are trained at the same academy as other troopers. And if you base yourself on names, why does Veers count as one ?

So basically use Veers and all Troopers but Snowtrooper in PvP if you are really big fan of Empire and do not care that your team sucks, and is weaker than what you are already using.

Using Veers and all Troopers but Shoretrooper makes for a fantastic PVE group, putting up significant numbers against the 2nd and 4th phases of the AAT Raid.
Using Veers and all Troopers but Snowtrooper makes for an incredibly tanking and resilient PVP group, which can grind out enemies in PVP, while using Deathmark as its major killing tool.

All the troopers need are: an auto-taunter (ala GK, RG), and/or a debuff remover (Rex, Chirrut, etc.).
Stormtrooper needs more health steal (only 15% with DT's bonus) or a higher health pool.

Troopers are wicked fun now though. I love watching Snowtrooper mow everyone down (he's now essentially a dark side Lando).

The problem with adding a Chirrut and/or a taunter is that they make Veer's Ruthless Assault less effective (they can't assist). So now the nuke is less likely to finish an opponent and therefore not triggering Aggressive Tactician.

They also don't benefit from Veer's leadership (though RG gets the offense, which for him, means little). While it's absolutely crucial in most battles to have a cleanser, the synergy of this team really hurts bringing in a Chirrut/Rex, etc. Remember, this is a burst damage team so any loss in DPS really hurts their effectiveness.

That's why I suggest an auto-taunter for the troopers and/or debuff cleanser. Either one would help a lot.

If they would have received either of them maybe they would have been good. But since that didn't happened they don't stand a chance against Zaul, Triple cleanse, Wiggs 3.0, Zader or other top arena teams. So you must really love them to be willing to downgrade and use them.

Notice the "airborne unit". I'm fine with them not having officers on there, as they're not front lines like Veers is (with the exception of Vader but for the most part he was separate from the core millitary)
