Scout Trooper/Original

The Scout Trooper is a sniper unit for the Galactic Empire used to pick off enemies from long-range. Their gun that has a double-zoom feature which allows you to get really close-up to the enemy. This means that you will have to aim ahead of the unit. However, make sure you get a head shot the first time or else you will give away your position to the enemy and he will move around, preventing you from hitting him. In Star Wars: Battlefront II, the Scout Trooper and his fellow sniper classes do not get a targeting reticule when not zoomed in-- but this is no hindrance to experienced players, who become quite good at 'shooting from the hip.' This unit is used in the Imperial Enforcer campaign of the PSP version of Star Wars Battlefront II. In level one you will fight Gungans on Naboo, next you fight the Jawas on Tatooine, third you fight the Ewoks on Endor, and last you fight the Wookiees on Kashyyyk. The Scout Trooper's armor is changed to Snow trooper armor on Hoth. (Equivalent- Assassin Droid, Rebel Marksman, Clone Sharpshooter)
