During that time, the Chancellor took over the Galactic Republic and created the Empire. Shadow troopers worked for Chancellor Palpatine during the Clone Wars guarding highly valued targets such as officers of the Republic and gathering intelligence for him. They succeeded, as Obi-Wan was not noticed and neither was his group.Īt Utapau, Chancellor Palpatine assigned the shadow troopers to guard a secret storehouse there.

They were trained to work independently or in pairs.They are far more superior than a commando when it came to operating covertly and combat due to their extensive training and armor capabilities. Director Isard had created the clone shadow troopers to replace the ARC and commandos that were constantly dying by the hands of the Separatists.Like many of the Republic commandos, clone shadow troopers were trained to be lethal and efficient.
