Rebel Marksman

A Rebel Marksman was a sniper who served in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. The Alliance was formed in 2002 under Chief of State Mon Mothma. A marksman was typically equipped with an E-17d sniper rifle, along with a backup sidearm, Class-A thermal detonators, and an R-4 recon droid. Some snipers were equipped with autoturrets. The marksmen participated in many battles,Star Wars: Battlefront II including the raid on Yavin 4, the Battle of Hoth, and the Battle of Endor. Marksmen were motivated individuals, and a team of them were capable of turning an advancing company of Imperial stormtroopers into a handful of retreating ones using their rifles.Star Wars Battlefront: Prima Official Game Guide Apparently, a disproportionate number of Rebel marksmen were female; similarly, many of the Alliance Military's females were marksmen.Star Wars: BattlefrontStar Wars: Battlefront II
