i like to think that the Coruscant Guard, Jedi Temple Guards, and Senate Guard don't all necessarily hate each other, but just argue a good bit and are generally passive aggressive towards each other while also collaborating to get jobs done. The CG and SG tend to work together just fine and the most; neither really work with the TG that often and consider them "strange but efficient". Also, by coincidence, the Commanders and Lieutenants of the CG interact with the SG more once they become the Red Guard, but "got along" better with the Blue Guard, and the TG interacts with them even less (so basically never) after this change. Smaller hc, but the CG (mostly the younger ones) started absorbing a handful of slang and speech patterns from the more relaxed SG members before the change.

got/asoiaf x star wars troopers

I've done some "star wars characters in a got/asoiaf medieval setting", so I decided to try my hand with the reverse. And where better to start than with troopers?

(more in depth detail on the different armor styles under the cut)

For the Kingsguard, I of course went with the Emperor's Guard for armor inspiration. I kept the three helmet fins from the GoT show, and the armor has been adapted from the show design. The helmet itself, especially the visor, is actually more reminiscent of the Republic Senate Guard. I went with the t-visor style both for accuracy to the GoT show helmets and also to have a t-visor trend with Targaryen affiliated troopers (which will be seen more later). The Kingsguard carry the double-bladed vibroblades wielded by Imperial Guard members Kir Kanos and Carnor Jax in the Crimson Empire comics.

Using the stormtrooper armor as a reference for the Lannister troopers was a no-brainer. The GoT show helmets had a similar two eye-hole design, and the face mask was similar to the front design of the stormtrooper helmet. Then I painted the armor to match the color patterns on the show armor.

For House Tully, I went with the Republic ARF trooper as the base for the armor design. The armor designs for House Tully soldiers from both GoT and HotD don't have much in terms of plate armor (it mostly was layers of chainmail or the scale armor tunics), so I used video game concept art as a reference for style. I did keep the fishscale design on the tunic though.

The House Tyrell helmet is based on the Clone Cadet Training armor design from The Clone Wars. That helmet was the closest to the design from the GoT show. The rest of the design was just adapted from the show armor.

House Stark, of course, is based on the Snow Trooper armor, specifically the Clone Cold assault Trooper armor that features in the early seasons of the Clone Wars. The helmet, the gambeson, and the shoulder pieces are the main carry-over from the actual House Stark armor.

For House Greyjoy, I took inspiration from the various iterations of SCUBA troopers. The helmet is from the First Order SCUBA troopers (featuring in Star Wars: Resistance). The rest of the armor is a mixed version of the Clone SCUBA troopers that featured in the two Clone Wars animations. The torse design is also reminiscent of the armor worn by the Greyjoys in GoT.

The helmet for the Targaryen troopers was based on the mandalorian helmet design, specifically the carry-over of the t-visor. The rest of the armor, using the HotD design as a base, is built off the First Order Stormtrooper armor.

The Armor for House Arryn is based off the armor used by the Mandalorian Imperial Supercommandoes that appeared in Star Wars: Rebels, though I adapted it with the helmet with a Clone BARC trooper visor and added the topfin. The rest of the armor/color patterns are based on the armor design from HotD.

The House Baratheon armor is mostly based off the Clone ARC Trooper armor from the Clone Wars. The torso design was similar enough to the GoT House Baratheon armor that it seemed like a good fit. The helmet with its t-visor is more Mandalorian in nature, calling on the connection House Baratheon has to House Targaryen.

The House Martell armor takes inspiration from the Clone Desert Trooper armor. Most of the armor design is from the clone armor, but some parts are inspired by the armor worn by Oberyn Martell in GoT as well as concept art I found on the web.

Heroes (fate of cybertron)

[kiwikipedia]

The Jedi Temple Guard has MASSIVE beef with the Senate Guard and vice versa. Neither group can openly fuck the other over, though, because Jedi aren’t supposed to hold grudges (according to the public but literally we know better in the Order) and the Senate Guard cant just jump a bunch of Jedi (They’ll get their asses kicked) but the fucking tension is there whenever the Senate Gaurd has to escort a Senator to the Temple.

That’s the real reason why the Clones were brought in for the Coruscant Guard, because the Temple and the Senate Guards fucking hate each other and the Senators couldn’t handle the tension between the two Guard Groups.

It doesn’t get better. 

Because the Temple Guard instantly went “Yeah these are our brothers now” and Cin signed the adoption papers, much to Plo’s ire at getting there first. Now there is no neutral ground because now the Coruscant Guard and the Temple Guard both are ready to kick the Senate Guard’s collective ass.

No one remembers why the Temple Guard hate the Senate Guard and vice versa, nor who started it. It’s just always been.

Senate Commando

[clonewarsarchives]

The Senate Commandos that we have wear clone armour that's painted blue because we didn't have at that time a lot of modelling ability for every episode. So we reuse the body armour, leg armour. We added a big scarab-like shell to the side of the Commando to give him a different look. And they got their classic helmet from The Phantom Menace, the big blue helmet.
