Thrawn is here and he's got a whole legion of some of the craziest looking stormtroopers we've ever seen. Let's take a look at the meaning behind their broken armor wrapped together with red night sister ribbons. Have the Stormtrooper's discipline broken down? Are they decorating themselves now like tribal warriors? Or is something more sinister happening here?

@Alphaeon1196

Ngl, the designs make it seem like they have evolved into more of a Thrawn Cult

@fanta4897

I think the stormtroopers look a bit rough simply due to lack of resources. If you look closely, even Thrawn's uniform is torn and stitched back here and there.

One thing that really impresses me about Enoch is his strong military bearing. When he went up to Thrawn and Morgan to report Baylan and Shin had left, Thrawn gave the order to use just 2 squads to back Baylan and Shin up. Enoch was just turning away to carry out that order when Morgan spoke up and suggested they sent more. Enoch stopped in his tracks and immediately turned around, but not in a showy manner. Then Thrawn explained his reasoning and Enoch turned around and left. How Enoch handled this situation just screamed military bearing.

@stuckerfam

I think the "Die well" line is a sign of the honor (yes, a twisted honor) of Thrawn rubbing off on his troopers. Baylan also has a form of honor, which he has proven by his keeping of his word (so far) to Sabine.

@rippera45

It's worth noting that historically, Imperial Navy officers are the ones who resist and disobey Thrawn. We routinely see Stormtroopers work under him without issue, while Navy personnel question his methods, mutter xenophobic words, think they can do better than him, etc. Konstanine, Kallus, Pryce, Tarkin; all Imperial Navy, and all tried to sabotage or outdo Thrawn. It would make sense that the Grand Admiral would have a Stormtrooper as his second, after a long history of being betrayed, belittled, and baffled by the sort of idiots the Imperial Navy gave him.

@Azrael_Equinox

Im not personally a fan of Night Troopers being undead. I like it a lot more if they are Thrawn's attempt of making sure his crew is alive and well armed using local techniques and cultures to do so.

@LPdedicated

The golden crack Kintsugi effect on the otherwise stark white armor (a.k.a. fixing what was once broken with something greater) and the Night Sister ribbons is an AMAZING touch and a clear hint of what has been going on with Thrawn's army and plot in general. This is peak Star Wars IMO! I love that the Night Sisters (who are heavily inspired by the Bene Gesserit order of Dune) are having their live action moments!

@SugarRushTimes2030-gs3qp

I think the red ribbon around their Storm (Night) Trooper armor is a symbol of partnership with the Night Sisters, a visual form of loyalty of ideology if you will.

@seandawson5899

I view the night troopers as rugged and experienced. They look formidable with their cracked armor. It shows they've been battling and facing hardship.

@JetTheBaron

There was a thing in Japan called ''Kintsugi'', which is pretty much a way to mend broken tea cups (and more I'd assume). They'd use Japanese lacquer, and would cover it with a

@violetlight1548

I don't think the catacombs are filled with the Nightsisters' dead. I think they're Thrawn's crew, placed in stasis for their survival, and he's relying on the Nightsisters out of necessity until he can bring them home. But it might be wishful thinking on my part. Those would be the actions of Zahn's nuanced Thrawn, not Filoni's EVIL Thrawn.

@NoobNoobNews

I think that the planet they found themselves trapped on is just plain hostile. Lots of crew members died, stormtroopers went out to hunt or escort naval crew on resource gathering and scouting missions to then be attacked by large and dangerous aliens. It is a terrible mess, and Thrawn is using whatever resources he can to maintain some semblance of order until he can get what is left of his crew back home alive.

@PhantomObserver

Thing about Thrawn: remember that in the novels, his command style inspires such trust that his subordinates are willing to die for him. This includes knowing what parts of the military ethos are important, such as dress and deportment being far less important than maintaining military fitness and skills.

@Brismo7

The Gold in the armor reminds me of Kintsugi. The Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, silver, or platinum. And the Red Armored Raiders reminded me of Samurai.

@wodanswil

I can't believe how cold and dangerous Thrawn seemed to be. Absolutely terrifying character.

@ranefe2632

Idk why but the troopers made me think of the Roman Empire and the gold reminded me of kintsugi. I think it's symbolic of how thrawn, always trying to be perfect, suffered a loss (they broke) but he's peiceing it all back together to make a big comeback. Might be a stretch but I think it also symbolizes the fall of the Roman Empire same way their Empire fell

@SpottedHares

The Night Troopers had year to both die and abandon Thrawn. But these didn't do either. These are battle hardened troops whose loyalty has been thoroughly tested and hardened.Sure Thrawn was kind enough to tell us explicitly that their numbers have dwindled when question about sending more troops after Sabine, but these Troopers are still here.

@Saxon709

When I first saw Capt Enoch, his helmet reminded me of Emperor Aurelian. Love the design. Hopefully we'll see more of him.

@redheartnorvus8997

The nightsister ribbons may have to do something like Maul getting legs. So these strom troopers may have injuries like lost limbs, severe chest and leg trauma where organs are heavily damaged. And these ribbons are there to magically keep them healed or animate portions of their bodies as well as making them stronger

@maxk8482

What I find interesting and also to be considered is, that he told Morgan he won’t waste more troopers to aid Balen and Shin since he lost casualties during the exile.
