The Tagirians


The Tagirians are a warrior race. Not only are their military prowess respected on certain worlds. Their love for beauty is also amazing. Their jungles are taken well care off. When the rains are sparce. They take what water they can and spray the jungles. One reason to keep it lush. The other to keep the beasts alive for hunts.

Their military is vast. Five thousand ships. Over one million soldiers. Although they have a home world. The Tagirians have several colony worlds. Which add to their cred and trade prowess.

Their fleet has never been beat. And their ground tactics have yet to be even close to matched. THeir most respected of people is Tagir himself. He is the leader of their people. Once the current Tagir`s life ends. A new one is selected. And he names the new banner and lead clan of the Targian race.

The Targirian race dates back to the earliest times of space travel. They were far advanced at that time. But no one knows how they got the militarist advancements they have. Some specualte the weapons and ships are of an Ancient origin. If you ask any of the Targians where it all came from. They would say at the beginning of time the first Tagir gave it to them. Today it is mere folklore. Something to give young warriors hope on the battlefeild. They pray to the first Tagir for strength and a victory.

Standard Troopers - Phase I Tagirian Armor - http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/e/e5/Clone_Troopers_Phase_I.jpg - Colors made for rank. White standard trooper. Red was corprals. Blue were Lieutenants.Gold were Captains. Yellow were Majors.

Tagirian Special forces - Phase II armor -http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/5/57/Clone_Troopers_Phase_II.jpg Unlike White which was standard special forces. The different Variations were for different types of feild. The Camo for jungle. And the one with the face sash was for cold climates. The Red colored Armor was Mech commandos. Yellow Ship-to-Ship assualt. Blue was Delta Commandos. Gold was Heavy assualt Commandos. Those ones were the most common amung the Special forces. The ones with the shoulder pad modifications were the Commanders. Each group in the special forces had a few. If not one for each unit.

Currently the Tagirians were and should still be long allies to Gabriel ashlocke due to the traveling he did to find Rhy`Din a while back.

Equipment of Tagirians under sonstruction

The DC-15 blaster rifle is a common weapon used by the Republic clone troopers. This was seen being carried by a majority of clone troopers in the Zarinfel Republic army.The DC-15 uses magazine cartridges filled with tibanna gas which results in blue laser bolts when fired. The DC-15 uses two types of ammunition in conjunction which are the tibanna gas cylinder and the charge magazine. The tibanna gas cylinder stores enough gas required for 600 rounds while the charge magazine usually only stores 60 rounds. This forces the user to change the charge magazine much more often than the tibanna gas cylinder. The DC-15S side arm also uses a rechargeable battery that lasts for 7 subsequent shots before the weapon pauses to recharge.

The DC-15 series of blasters has developed into three primary versions

The DC-15A blaster rifle is carried by the majority of the Tagirian Troopers.

The DC-15 also bears a resemblance to the MG42 machine gun used in World War II. The "pod" seen on the underside of the rifle is a scope that can be detached from the underside carrying position and placed into position upon the topside of the weapon for sniping purposes. The DC-15A was considered a very difficult weapon to operate due to the volatile tibanna gas it utilized. The well trained Troopers however were more than capable of making full use of the rifle with little to no trouble.

The DC-15S carbine is known to have features such as foresight protectors, a blaster power cell located on the side of the blaster's receiver, and a folding rifle stock. The DC-15S blaster carbine was used by many regular Troopers during ship to ship battles. The DC-15S carbine apparently had an advantage over the bulky, heavier rival DC-15A blaster rifle the Troopers carried. The wider use of the DC-15S blaster carbine by the Troopers and same for the DC-15S side arm blaster was commonly used by the Commandos as a backup weapon in addition to their DC-17m Interchangeable weapon system. An energy cell recharged the blaster at a slow but steady rate.


Their armor consists of 20 form-fitting plates over a black body glove. Based on their ancient ancestors armor but modified to withstand High temperatures and High levels of Gas. Each helmet is outfiitted with a Comlink antenna, gas/oxygen filter. Each plate is sealed to the body glove by magnatomic gription panels.

The commandos, also known as "Tagirian Republic Commandos", were elite Special forces soldiers of the Tagirian Republic.

Many battles have been won through the unsung efforts of the Commando squads. They were the predecessors of the elite Tagirian Imperial Storm Commandos.

The commandos were initiated at Tagir's demand. He was given ten thousand clones to train, saying that "you can't have an army of drones." Many other Zargosis outcasts and technical experts helped train the commandos.

The Commandos were created in response to the AR troopers' independent behavior. Commandos were created to be superior to AR Troopers. They are considered the best of the best of the Tagirian Army, as this quote mentions: "If you need a job done, you can send 10 ten AR Troopers, 100 Troopers, or 4 Commandos

Each clone has enhanced physical and mental abilities. They are able to lift twice their own body weight and crack even the toughest of security codes.

Commandos trained in groups of four, and often stayed with that group for all their life in training and in battle. This resulted in Commandos forming intense brotherly bonds, which helped to fuse them as a lethal team. This resulted in the Commandos acquiring skills that complimented each others, although all were competent in performing their comrades' duties (i.e. sniping, hacking, lobbing grenades, etc). Each commando's training is decided by the person that was their head instructor. Each instructor was personally picked by Tagir.

Commando organization was based on the local aiwha predator, which hunted in teams of four. Each commando developed colorful nicknames to develop pride and uniqueness such as armor painting, a Tagirian tradition. Delta Squad was the first to paint their armor individually, creating not only pride, but the ability to identify each other quickly on the battlefield.

Each commando in a squad had his own profession, such as: demolitions, sniping/ambush, slicing, and infiltration/tactics. Each squad contained both a squadron leader and squadron advisor. Another attribute different from regular and AR troopers, was that all the commandos developed habits, accents, and voice patterns similar to those of their trainers, with the exception of Republic Commando RC/1138 "Sarge" who inherited Tagir's Concord Dawn accent.

Commandos were assigned to carry out covert operations too delicate for regular troopers. Infiltration, sabotage, laying traps, siege breaking, covert recon, assassination and subterfuge were all in a day's work for the clone commandos.

However, the commandos were not all about subtlety. They had at their disposal a DC-17m, a pulse rifle which could be field-stripped and changed into an anti-armor RPG and a sniper rifle. This allowed them to essentially carry three weapons in one streamlined, efficient package. Despite its multi-purpose nature, the weapon is more powerful than the DC-15 series of blaster rifles in the sense that it fires faster.

The DC-17m is actually a simple platform on which many different types of weapons can be mounted. It can be outfitted with an blaster attachment, a sniper attachment or an anti-armor grenade launching attachment. The DC-17m's primary blaster attachment has a magazine capacity of sixty rounds, with Commandos carrying up to five magazines for a total of 300 rounds. The sniper attachment has magazines holding five high-powered rounds, with each Commando carrying up to four magazines for a total of twenty sniper shots, while the anti-armor attachment only chambers one shaped-charge anti-armor grenade at a time though a Commando may carry an additional three in reserve.


Commandos, instead of wearing regular-grade clone trooper armor, wore advanced Zarban-class commando armor, which generated their own shielding, giving the commando the ability to withstand a barrage of shots and still be able to fire back before taking serious damage. The armor consists of a black undersuit with white or black (Omega Squad) armor plating. The under suit provides a level of artificial thermal insulation, while the armor plating provides the majority of the kinetic defense. The armour can also provide a limited degree of protection to hard vacuum (with approximately 20 minutes of oxygen in the Zarban version 3), and is somewhat fireproof. Bacta could also be easily applied to the commando via handheld dispensers.

Ion Squad-

The Ion Team was a Commando squad serving under Twitch (Spaud Leader). Ion Team was made up of Climber, Ras, Trace and a fourth clone commando. The commandos of Ion Team include: Climber (Squad tactitian), Trace (Small Arms Expert), and Ras (unknown).

Omega Spuad-

Darman previously served in the Battle of Gelzoria as part of Theta Squad, with squad members Jay, Vin and Taler. However, these three were killed during a failed operation at the Battle of Gelzoria. Darman was subsequently assigned to Omega Squad, a team composed of individuals who had also lost their comrades/brothers in the Battle of Gelzoria, although Atin had actually lost two squads: the first in a training accident before the outbreak of The Clone Wars, and the second during the Battle of Gelzoria.

RC-3222 "Adin" - Technician

Deltas Squad-

Delta Squad has been sent on campaigns around the entire galaxy including the assassination of Gorlatis lieutenant Sortey Donreos and have repelled a SF attack on Zargon City in Zargonia Prime- losing Delta 07 in the process. The mission to defend the Zargonianl City gathered valuable intelligence and destroyed strategic SF positions, aiding greatly in the Battle of Zargonia Prime. Following the loss of Eyes, the remaining Deltas were informed by Tagir himself that they were the ones who had made it possible for the Republic invasion force to aid the Zargonian's against the SF forces. Eyes was later rescued by his borthers after they fought countless enemy droids to get to him.

During a recon mission at the MIA assault ship TRAS Progeny, before the reconnaissance on Zargonia Prime, Delta Squad would rescue Omega Squad with the help of a stolen SF ship and then team up with Omega Squad, Sergeant Leon Fortunase, two heavy assualt Clones, Drakose , and Null Arc troopers N-11 Ordo and N-7 Mereel to find a SF leak on Agra Prime. Delta squad is considered the legendary squad, the best of the commandos, and thus, some of the most deadly beings in the galaxy. They're also sometimes compared to their inferior predecessors, ARC troopers.

The AT-AW (Armored Transport Assualt walker) is a six legged craft with a top mounted Laser cannon. A pair of rear mounted rapid fire splinter laser turrets. The cockpit is guarded by four foward mounted laser cannons with Plasma/ Ion injectors to prevent over heating of the cockpit.

The AT-TE(Armored Troop Transport Evacuator) is a two winged vessel. Two side mounted beam turrets. The wings have a pair of double barreled AA turrets for intercepting or shooting down incomming missiles. A pair of forward mounted splinter laser barrels rest under the Cockpit and are Ion injected to the engines to evenly discharge Plasma waste. Two heavy plasteel doors to protect troops from Ground AA and ground blaster rifle fire.

The TLH is a eight legged vessel with one top mounted Long range Arch-Trubo laser cannon with a range up to several miles at maximum but only seven hundred yards minimum. Vulnerable to close range attacks have led to the further upgrading of the TLH with a bottom mounted Gatling-Lasert turret and rear mounted Anti-Infantry laser guns.

Also known as the Tagirian Turbo Tank, this heavy assault vehicle was developed by the Medaros Drive Yards and introduced in the later stages of the Unification War. Actually intended to provide remote outposts with enough firepower to defend themselves against droid attack, its value was soon recognised by Republic tacticians as well. It soon all but replaced the AT-TE and TX-130S as the primary ground assault vehicle. Rolling across the ground on 10 massive wheels, it could transport up to 300 troops and/or up to 1000 tons of cargo in its heavily armoured interior. Powered by a huge reactor, sheathed in heavy armour plate and loaded with multiple highly devastating weapons systems, the HAVw A6 Juggernaut was one of the most powerful and deadly assault vehicles ever made, superseded only by the Imperial All-Terrain Armored Transport (AT-AT). Droid commanders very rightly feared its presence on the battlefield.

The massive blocky body and large rolling wheels meant that it was often (rather unlovingly) called the ?rolling slab? by troops and vehicle commanders. As it was so heavy and unwieldy, the Juggernaut was next to impossible to turn round. This problem was solved by the addition of another, smaller driving cockpit at the ?rear? which meant it could be driven from either end. Juggernaut crews debated heavily as to which were the true front and back ends, but the general consensus is that it usually drove from right to left when seen from a position such as that in the left-hand image above. While highly difficult to turn round a full 180?, each of the Juggernaut?s 10 massive wheels was divided into 3 independently spinning sections, providing actually quite good manoeuvrability ? at least for a vehicle that size. The size of the wheels also meant that it was less susceptible to sinking in soft ground than the walkers of the Zarinfel Republic as even with its massive bulk the weight was much more evenly distributed.

It was usually used in much the same way as the AT-TW ? it would roll into the battle and deploy large numbers of troops under withering fire protection and then move off to act as a heavy assault vehicle in the role of obliterating enemy vehicles, infantry, fixed weaponry and more or less anything else that wasn?t friendly. It was well equipped indeed for this role ? the capacity for up to 300 troops made it a very effective transport, far more so than the AT-TE; the heavy laser cannon (which would actually later be copied and improved on in the AT-AT to be one of the most powerful ever used in a ground assault vehicle) was devastating against enemy vehicles, buildings and fixed weapon emplacements; the two medium blaster cannons swept aside enemy infantry with ease; the twin double light blasters covered the front end against infantry attack; the missile launchers here highly effective against more or less anything within their effective range of 30 km; and the repeating blaster cannon provided cover fire for disembarking troops. It was also able to achieve speeds of up to 160 km/h when going full pelt along flat ground, could carry provisions for 20 days and fuel for 30,000 km and was almost 50 m long. All in all, the Juggernaut was very well chosen as the backbone of the ground forces of the Grand Army of the Republic.

At least a dozen A6 Juggernauts saw action in the Battel of Zargonia Prime near the end of the Unification wars, and continued in the service of the Zarinfel Empire, though they would be largely relegated to support roles in unimportant battles and during the Outer Rim marches. Although most replaced by the Imperial All-Terrain Armored Transport (AT-AT) which sported stronger armor plating and could traverse a wider variety of terrain, the Juggernaut still retained advantages in versatility against multiple targets.

The TX-130S Fighter Tank was an ultra?maneuverable, super fast vehicle.It is equipped with fairly weak lasers and a relatively large payload of concussion missiles. It has a limited speed boost to get out of tight combat situations. It is equipped with a fairly powerful optical zoom. Using this, it can snipe enemies from a distance.

The ISP (standing for Infantry Support Platform, but the vehicle was most often called simply the Swamp Speeder) was a medium-weight, highly mobile and very fast repulsor vehicle deployed on many worlds to provide anti-infantry and limited anti-vehicle support. Manned by a crew of 2 highly-trained Troopers, the Swamp Speeder zipped around on the battlefield delivering punishing blows from its dual twin blaster cannons and using its high maneuverability to dodge enemy fire.Designed primarily for use on marshy or swampy worlds where conventional walkers would be less effective, the ISP came into use after the Republic suffered resounding defeats in their campaigns to take muddy Jabinal and similar worlds mid-way through the Unification Wars. Unaffected by the worst terrain due to its powerful repulsorlifts, it was primarily offensive in function as it relied on speed to keep out of harm?s way due to a substantial lack of armor. Fixing this craft to a static point often resulted in heavy losses.While under equipped for defensive missions, the ISP excelled at hit-and-run attacks on slow moving infantry or light vehicle targets. Swooping in from apparently nowhere, the Swamp Speeder would zip past a target while showering it with laser blasts and zooming away before weapons could be brought to bear. While it was best when dealing with light ground troops, the slightly oversized laser cannons packed enough punch to penetrate the armor on such targets as Zargoras Rouge Alliance NR-N99 Tank Droids and the vehicle was agile enough to take down even a HMP Droid Gunship that had its shields up. The ISP was also good at patrol duties, cruising along at up to 100 km/h thanks to its large primary turbofan engine (which could also reverse thrust to allow the vehicle to maneuver more easily) while the pilots scanned the terrain for threats. ISPs were deployed on such worlds as Malcar and Denzonia, though they were also used on many others.

The Semarune Federation's Heavy Artillery Gun or Mortar Tank as they are more commonly known within the ranks of the Republic military are an upgraded version of the AAT, or Armored Assault Tank. As well as an armor upgrade, they also are refitted to fire mortars. Countless numbers of HAGs were used in the earlier stages of the Unification Wars and were used to bombard the enemy with a full load of 120 mortars. One shot from their guns could destroy a Republic troop transport, and in concentrated numbers they were deadly to any Republic armor. The Republic answer was the AT-XT, which did not get into mass-production but was deadly, with mortar grenades and plasma shields. Despite this, the HAGs continued to see action at conflicts like Battle of Thule. They were present at the Battle of Zeno Mangor and were firing on the Zeno Mangor Outpost and their turrets, but they were destroyed one by one by Rhys Dallows, Nym, Vana Sage, Reti and Jenkins. But before the AT-XT was deployed, it was a dangerous foe to ground-based stationary enemies and outposts.

The AT-OT (All Terrain Open Transport) is a walker employed by the Tagirian Republic for overland transport.Designed almost exclusively for transport behind friendly lines, the AT-OT's passengers are vulnerable to attack from above but are protected from attacks from the sides. The cockpit, however, is totally encased in armor. Though not meant for combat, the AT-OT has two forward mounted laser cannons and 2 rear mounted laser cannons. The bed is designed to fit 34 clone troopers, but can fit more if needed. AT-OT walkers stand 14.3 meters long and 5.8 meters tall.

While similar to the AT-TW or AT-AT, it is slower than the AT-TW and smaller than the AT-AT. It was deployed in the Battle of Genogarus to assist gunships and mobile assault cannons (in this case the TLH) After the Unification Wars, they were deployed on Zelonia with General Dargos Felcore. Along with most of the republic's other heavy walkers, it was manufactured by Rothana Heavy Engineering, a subsidiary company under the ZCY Umbrella.

The All Terrain Advance Raider (or AT-AR) is shaped like the AT-ST. It has less firepower, though, with only one heavy laser cannon. It does, however, run faster than the AT-ST and is more heavily armored. Larger than the AT-ST, it stands at 12 meters. This allows for two crewmen in a large cockpit, as large as an AT-AT; and there is available space in the back for cargo, soldiers, or facilities for long trips for the crew. Deployed on jungle, forest, and ice worlds, this vehicle was deployed at the Battle of Hoth along with its fellow AT-ST, and AT-AT.

The Aratech 74-Z speeder bike was the Republic?s primary reconnaissance and light scout/anti-personnel vehicle of the Unification Wars.It was much faster and more maneuverable than its Semarune Federation's equivalent, the STAP, and packed almost the same amount of firepower. It was primarily carried by AT-TE/i or AT-TE/v troop gunships and dropped when below the repulsor engines? maximum height capability. The 74-Z could perform many roles, from scouting to anti-personnel ?mop-up? operations to getting information to and from isolated outposts with no comm capability, being used as a makeshift field ambulance and even performing hit-and-run sabotage missions against highly defended enemy targets. The 74-Z could also boost power to the repulsorlift engines for a short time, resulting in incredibly powerful quick bursts of speed used for things like getting out of a particularly sticky situation or catching up to a fast-fleeing enemy. However, if the pilot boosted for too long he could risk a complete engine burnout, and while boosting, power to other systems like the inertial compensator and blasters was dropped substantially. While moving so quickly this gave the speeder bikes the ability to jump short gaps with ease.


The Hailfire droid is a lethal war vehicle constructed by the Idorian Trading Clan. The droid is a self-aware mobile missile platform and is capable of destroying entire platoons of enemy soldiers. It is also known as the Wheel droid and is well equipped with missile launchers fitted on each side of its head. Each missile launcher could fire 15 rocket warheads, each of which had the destructive capability to destroy an AT-TE walker. If the Hailfire droid's supply of missiles ran out, it is also equipped with a long range medium-powered laser cannon. Hailfire droids worked extremely well as anti-aircraft weapons, and destroyed some of the Republic Gunships at the Battle of . The vehicle also ran on large hoop-like wheels on either side of the body which enabled it to operate on every land terrain. Before the Unification Wars, the hailfire droid was used by the IDC to punish customers who had declined to pay their debts.

The OG-9 Homing Spider Droid is an automated droid vehicle. Built by the Narfin Trading Guild, was one of the mainstays of the Confederacy armed forces. Deadly to both ground and air units, these dangerous droids were one of the biggest threats that the Zarinfel Republic had to face. Striding across the battlefield on 4 huge, piston-like legs, it could traverse mountainous terrain, deserts, and forests and was only thwarted by swamps or deep water.The armament was deadly in the extreme: 1 heavy-duty homing laser underneath for use against all manner of larger ground targets and one smaller top mounted laser to shoot down aircraft and smaller, faster ground vehicles like Speeder bikes. Not only was it powerful, it was also unusual: the armament was an actual laser instead of a blaster. Lasers are beams of extremely focused light, rather than blaster technology which uses magnetically-sealed ?bolts? of ionized gas and energy. This means that the destructive energy came out of the focusing dish as a beam which continued until it dissipated somewhere far off in the distance. It hit its target at light-speed, providing no chance for the target to dodge or avoid the beam, either. Lasers also assured accuracy ? they did not move or jolt at all when fired and, as the term ?laser-straight? shows, they were perfectly aligned. When combined with the highly sensitive Parallax homing dishes, which detected with a high degree of accuracy the presence and position of enemies, the weapons placed on this droid were some of the most lethal used by a ground vehicle in the Clone Wars. Laser or not, the beam could tear through armor like tissue paper and in the Battle of Geonosis groups of Spider Droids managed to decimate whole contingents of Republic AT-TEs.

The OG-9 utilized a powerful reactor to supply the intense, sustained energy needs of its homing lasers. This reactor was kept safe inside the armored central body core; however, if this was breached the reactor would destabilize and detonate in a massive explosion, vaporising anything in the immediate vicinity of the droid and dealing blast damage to things a bit farther away.When this deadly machine was combined with the Dwarf Spider Droid a formidable advance attack could be made. This was because the lasers of the Homing Spider Droid were mounted on a body held high up in the air by the legs, so when it was positioned behind a line of it?s shorter cousins, Dwarf Spider Droids, it could fire without fear of hitting anything friendly. When combined with a battalion of infantry such as Battle and Super Battle Droids, it took seriously strong enemy lines to resist such an integrated, deadly wall of firepower.They did have their weaknesses, though more than once, groups of Troopers on 74-Zs rushed at groups of Spider Droids too fast for their weapons to track and threw limpet mines onto their casing as they passed by. Otherwise, Spider Droids were one of the most lethal battlefield units ever to enter service in the Unification Wars.

The All Terrain Attack Pod is a three-legged evolution of the AT-PT walker. Considered a tank destroyer/assault gun, it would usually play a support role. Its two primary legs were used for walking, while the third leg hung underneath the fuselage and would be extended during combat to help stabilize the walker when it took aim and fired its main cannon or when the walker was crossing uneven terrain.The AT-AP is operated by 3 clone troopers at a time. Two in the cabin and a third operating a top-mounted projectile cannon, similar to the one mounted on top of the AT-TE. In addition, it is armed with a large projectile cannon fixed in the front of the craft which was very powerful but required the whole walker to align it self to aim. Rounding off the armament was a medium blaster cannon mounted at the bottom of the main fuselage. It had average armor on the front and sides but lacked it in the rear.Often issued with Republic mechanized infantry forces, walkers of this type saw action at the Battle of Zaronia and the Battle of Zelonia, where most valued for the level of the terrain. Which in turn leveled the battle feild.
