Heavy Weapons Trooper

Heavy Weapons Troopers, also known as Heavy Dark Troopers, Heavy Assault Troopers, Heavy Gunners, or just simply Heavies, were a specialized variant of dark troopers who were armed with large rapid-fire blasters, including the Z-6 rotary blaster cannon or the DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle, which could level anything in their path.
==Description==
Heavy Weapons Troopers, also known as Heavy Dark Troopers or Heavy Assault Troopers, were dark troopers of the United Front Infantry Corps. The troopers were trained in the use of heavy weapons, such as the Z-6 rotary blaster cannon or the DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle. Some were even seen using the MPL-57 grenade launcher, DLT-19C heavy blaster rifles, or T-21 light repeating blasters. They were equipped with standard dark trooper armor modified with the addition of a black pauldron, an ammunition pouch, and a backpack.
Heavy Weapons Troopers were often dispatched on the frontlines of conflict, but were also utilized as guards for planetary conquest. They were primarily trained to defend combat zones as support squads to regular dark troopers. Although their heavy weapons were highly effective, they required a cool-down period after use, leaving them vulnerable. Heavy Gunners variants included the Heavy desert trooper and the Heavy snow trooper, who were utilized in more specialized environments.
