Clone Commando

*Reference Book: Star Wars Saga Edition Clone Wars Campaign Guide*

*Affiliations: The Galactic Republic*

Long before the Battle of Geonosis, Jango Fett suggests to the Kaminoan cloners that a special type of Clone Commando be created to handle infiltration and sabotage operations. What he envisions are the ARC Troopers, but the Kaminoans are uncomfortable with clones having that level of autonomy after experiencing discipline problems with a previous prototype, so they suggest smaller squads of more highly trained Clone Troopers. In the end, they reach a compromise: Fett gets his ARC Troopers, and the Kaminoans set aside a battalion of Clone Troopers to receive additional training.

These "Clone Commandos" are individually trained by a hand-selected team of mercenaries and Mandalorian soldiers- the Cuy'val Dar- in numerous specialized tasks, such as demolitions, computer slicing, infiltration, and sniping, until they can function in purpose-oriented four-clone squads, or, as needs arise, individually.

Clone Commandos are often sent into enemy territory in advance of the main force of Clone Troopers to disable enemy resistance, secure critical locations, or even to eliminate key enemy personnel.
