	Sand troopers:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		Are dirty.
	</li>
	<li>
		Don't have a cool sniper knee like we have, just some stupid diamond.
	</li>
	<li>
		Are covered in sand.
	</li>
	<li>
		Have to lug around backpacks, and thus move slower.
	</li>
	<li>
		Covered in dirt and need a bath.
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	Shadow troopers:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		Are just Darth Vader wannabes!
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	Stormtrooper Commanders:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		Think they're so cool with their blue stripes and lightsabers, but aren't.
	</li>
	<li>
		Don't have ice cream, we do.
	</li>
</ul>
