CharacteristicsEdit

As the name indicates, cold assault troopers were specially trained for battle and survival in extremely cold regions. Their specialized armor was specifically designed for protection to the wearer in extremely low temperatures and to allow for effective operations within this environment.

The Phase II armor was very similar to the snowtrooper armor.^[1]

HistoryEdit

Clone snowtroopers under Commander Mag were deployed on the icy world of Orto Plutonia, where they were tasked with testing subzero gear such as the Freeco bike. After the outpost was wiped out by the Talz, another clone cold assault task force from the 501st led by Captain Rex was sent to investigate, accompanied by Jedi Generals Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi.^[2]

Cold assault troopers fought on Toola during the last days of the Republic under Commander Keller. They later executed their Jedi General when the Old Republic became the Empire.^[1]
