Riot control stormtroopers,[2] also known as Imperial riot troopers,[1] were specialized Imperial stormtroopers who acted as a security force tasked with the dispersion and arrest of insurgents taking part in disruptive activities. Some of them wore regular stormtrooper armor and all wielded either batons[2] or electrostaffs.[1]. Some riot troopers were present on Takodana when Han Solo tried to extract Ralsius Paldora, and again during the Battle of Jakku when Iden Versio crashed her X-wing into the Eviscerator to find Garrick Versio.[3]
