Stormtroopers are the main infantry of the Galactic Empire in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront. They also appear in Star Wars Battlefront II as the Empire's Assault class. They were originally clone troopers, but they were quickly phased out by non-clone human men and women.
Star Wars Battlefront
Overview
All players start out with helmeted male and female Stormtrooper skins for free. They are the only infantry for the Empire that change their armor on different planets. The game originally had helmetless stormtroopers, but this option was removed due to fan complaint and the skins were replaced by the Death Star Trooper and Imperial Officer instead.
In Missions mode, they are the basic enemy foot soldiers and do not pose much of a threat in any way. Being more or less cannon fodder, they are rather weak individually and are not particularly hard to kill in most situations.
That being said, stormtroopers are not to be underestimated. Their sheer numerical superiority more than makes up for each individuals' rather lackluster performance and they can easily overwhelm the player if caution is not taken, especially in Survival.
They also appear in Skirmish on Walker Assault, where they move and act largely in the same as they do in Missions with some performance improvement at higher difficulties.

Star Wars Battlefront II
Overview
Stormtroopers return in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II as the Assault class unit for the Galactic Empire. Like all Assault soldiers, their primary abilities are the Thermal Detonator, Vanguard, and Scan Dart, though these can be swapped out with the use of Ability Cards. Their standard issue blaster is the E-11 blaster rifle, but, like all Assault units, they can also use the A280 blaster rifle, the CR-2 blaster pistol, and the EL-16HFE blaster rifle.
