LFlank...ROFL! I would hope so! This Trooper at LEAST has tri laser! But with Imperial contracts going to lowest bidder...there may be trouble. So far just this design phase has cost about 100,000 credits. For one drawing. The Imperial budget for the pencil alone was 25% of that. All taxpayer credits as well. So by the end, the good people of the Empire should only have to pony up 20,000 credits each, after the R&D is done and first prototype is built. Naturally production costs will be higher. The Predator species is not exactly...co-operative when it comes to taking body measurements. We've lost 4 designers in trying to get a cranial scan. No fear, the Empire has plenty on hand.
I'm surprised this thing is still generating interest. Very cool and much appreciated.
