ASH Attacktix: Green Trooper (Khadam)

[dvandom]

The Green Troopers aren't even really soldiers. Their job is to scour the streets of Ghat and find people that no one will miss, then scoop them up and deliver them to the scientists in the Citadel for use in generic experiments. Because they're not supposed to be facing serious opposition, they get no protection other than their gasmask/helmet, and no weapons but carbines and gas grenades. The Green Troopers hate this.

Because of the distinctive shape of their helmets and the color they wear on their uniforms, the Green Troopers have acquired the nickname "Frogs". The Green Troopers hate this.

There's a rumor popular in Ghat that if you put up a good enough fight when the Frogs come for you, instead of getting turned into experimental subjects, you get recruited into the Green Trooper corps. This, of course, leads to people fighting back really hard when the Greens come for them. The Green Troopers hate this.

The White Troopers look down on the Greens, calling them jumped-up dogcatchers. The chances of being promoted out of the Greens and into the Whites are slim, and the Whites do what they can to make the chances slimmer, preferring to recruit directly out of other talent pools. The Green Troopers hate this.

Being a Green Trooper is not a fun job, so you'll understand if they tend to take their frustrations out on anyone weaker than they. So...don't look weak when you're in Khadam.

This figure started life as an Endor Scout, SW02(4). A lot of the work I did is not obvious...I didn't like how things lined up between the top and bottom halves, so I did extensive cutting and puttying to make it work better. The figure now defaults to being turned about ten degrees to the left of where it originally did. I trimmed back the bill of the helmet and used putty to create the gasmask/searchlight combo. I left the Shootback power alone.
