Can we presume that Imperial marine is the same things as this? -LtNOWIS 23:07, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
- Hard to say. The Galactic Marines weren't clone marines. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision)

- Um, yes they were: Clone Marines. But that doesn't relate to what I asked. -LtNOWIS 00:07, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
- That's an incorrect link. Here is the real clone marine article. Those clone marines have nothing to do with the Galactic Marines. As to how it relates to this, it shows that two things with "marine" in the name aren't necessarily related. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 01:09, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
- And funnily enough that right after this discussion, a certain contributor changed that redirect. If I were you, Nebulax, I'd watch myself given how you're on step from being banned for a six month minimum. Kuralyov 02:14, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
- Uh, "Clone Marines" should redirect to "clone marine", rather than "Galactic Marines". However, I have made "Clone Marines" into a disambig page with links to both "Galactic Marines" and "clone marine". This should be a good compromise, right, Kuralyov? —Grand Admiral J.

- Are Stormtroopers not Marines by definition? Semith 21:17, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
- Technically, yes, but this appears to be a division of the Stormtrooper Corps. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 22:57, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

- I am not sure the Imperial Marines in the DS book are meant to be this type. Stihl is never said to be a stormtrooper. He is specifically called an army trooper. At one point he is said to have 18-piece armor (do stormtroopers have that?). At another point he is said to be one of the DS troopers guarding the conference room during Cast's report to Tarkin (although all previous sources say DS troopers are navy, not army)74.197.21.243 18:16, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
- OK, I take it back. I checked the Wookieepedia article, and stormtroopers do INDEED have 18 pieces of armor. So apparently Nihl is meant to be a Stormtrooper. Odd then he is described as guarding the conference room, as I am pretty sure that was a DS trooper in the movie; and the book still describes DS troopers at one point as "stormtroopers in black uniforms" and Stihl as an "army trooper," so the ignorant authors seem to think stormtroopers, Death Star troopers, and army troopers are all the same, just wearing different uniforms? Did they actually do research into the EU at all?JustinGann 19:32, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
