Description:
Republic Commandos are the most elite group of clone troopers who went through incredibly tough specialized training that make them the best troops the Republic has to offer.
Commandos operate in squads of 4, with each member having a specialized role in their squadron.
First off is the Medic of the team, who's tasked with keeping the other Commandos and troopers supplied and healthy on the battlefield. The Medic is equipped with a bacta injector and defibrillators to revive downed troopers on the battlefield.
Next on the team is the Marksman. The Marksman is tasked of being the sniper and main scout of the squad, so they're typically the ones that are the most separated from the rest of their group. Marksmen Commandos are armed with an extremely powerful sniper, the DC-17m Anti-Material, which is highly effective against both infantry and vehicles from almost any range.
Next up you have the Assaulter. The Assaulter is the frontline powerhouse of Commandos who will usually take point in formations. They're equipped with the DC-17m Shotgun, which can tear through waves of droids with ease. The Assaulter is also knowledgeable in EOD if needed.
Finally is the Support Commando. The Support Commando is the heavy ordnance and technician of the squad who is equipped with the DC-17m Anti Armor Launcher, an extremely powerful explosive that devastates enemy vehicles and ground troops alike.
BACKGROUND LORE
Clone commandos, also known as Republic Commandos, were elite clone troopers that served in the Grand Army of the Republic's Special Operations Brigade during the Clone Wars. A result of the Kaminoans' genetic experimentation with the Jango Fett template, they were special forces soldiers noted for their training and elite status in the clone army. In 22 BBY, Clone Commander CT-411 "Ponds" gave command over five commando units to Jedi Master Mace Windu, who directed them to engage in a frontal assault against the Separatist Droid Army during the First Battle of Geonosis.
