Description:
Advanced Recon Commandos are an elite branch of the Republic. ARC Troopers are deployed into their respective regiments and are given a stronger lineup of weapons and gadgets then the standard troopers in their regiments.
There are also 4 Designated "Special" ARC Squadrons that troopers can do tryouts for.
The first of these squadrons are ARC Pilots. ARC Pilots aid 212th in aerial combat and fly many different ships.They also come equipped with powerful dual pistols, dual wielded shotguns and a jet pack for ejecting from their ships during crashes
The second squadron are ARC Heavies. ARC Heavies are equipped with the powerful Z-6 Rotary Cannon to mow down anyone or anything that stands in their way, the RPS-6 Rocket Launcher for devastating damage to enemy vehicles and massive creatures alike, and the Dual DC-17's for when they are in a pinch and out of ammo in the Z-6. Very few things will stand in the way of a Heavy while they dominate the field
The third of these squadrons are Alpha ARC Troopers. Members of Alpha ARC function similar to Republic Commandos, as they mobilize in small groups and utilize stealth to their advantage. They're armed with cloaking as well as silenced weaponry, a sniper, fiber wire, as well as other mobility items such as grappling hooks and climb swep, and can aid SWAT in hostage extractions
BACKGROUND LORE
Advanced Recon Commandos, also known as ARC troopers, were an elite variant of the clone troopers that served the Galactic Republic. Chosen from the ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic, the status of ARC trooper was bestowed on clones who served with distinction on the battlefield, such as CT-1409 "Echo" and CT-5555 "Fives." The training of clone cadets also served as a means for identifying particular cadets who demonstrated the potential to become future ARC troopers.
