I still want to say Red Shirt, but that's primarily due to me being more fond of Trek over Star Wars. Though I think I can come up with a ton of reasons to support this (one being some red shirts can be witty engineers if we look at it from that stand point), but in the traditional sense of the Red Shirt, most don't really apply. Though some specific to the red shirt I can think up include duck and cover and luring the enemy to what ever might kill them. (ok, maybe not the best reason in the world, but its hilarious when I think about it.) That and red shirts get big guns at times too. Big guns that vaporize with a signle hit to.
lolz exactly, the redshirt would die, but not before he kills the stormtrooper, prolly from ewok hyjinks or some other deadly alien predator...or Q, but one of those that fixes what gets screwed up....like samual beckett....not jonathan archer
Like I said at the beginning, this is something of a thought experiment, akin to that of the "unstoppable force vs immovable object" debate, only applied to the two most famous groups of expendables.
Stormtroopers can barely hit the broadside of a barn, and that only if they employ More Dakka, while Redshirts exist for the express purposes of dying.
Rather interesting to think about who would win in a fight between them.
Personally, my opinion as to the outcome of such a fight is as follows: The Redshirt kills the Stormtrooper, but is then killed himself by his Phaser overloading and blowing up. :cool:
Its actually surprisingly uncommon knowledge. Real Stormtroopers aren't as bad a shot as in the films. But, who wouldn't be that bad a shot when shooting from the hip like that. Do remember, they were only bad shots when shooting at the hero characters.
As for the redshirt....no armor and close range weapons....gotta give it to the Stormtrooper.
Though a sniper phaser rifle....now THAT would have been epic....if they made one, lol.

A Stormtrooper can't hit the broad side of a battlecruiser. *L*
But you also know that after the fight, the Redshirt will be ambushed by a Rancor, so it doesn't really matter.
The Stormtrooper will miss.
And the red shirt will die anyway.
As I expected, the discussion is hilarious.
