stormtrooper vs. clone trooper
@awesam: Well its based off of EU like the OP said, according to the books I have read stormtroopers are very competent, also the clone troopers had superior numbers when taking on jedi masters .
@juiceboks: Well the e-11 is technologically superior to the carbine carried by the clone, it has 500 shots, and has selection fire to it, plus the stormtroopers go through crazy hard training, the only way you washout is if you die.
Been done several times. Clones are genetically superior in virtually every category.
this
@mitran: Yes but they are accelerated, so its not like 20 years of training its half that or even less, plus the stormtrooper as I said has better armor and tech than the clone trooper, his blaster is 20 years or more out of date. And a stormie's training is very good, in one story a stormtrooper tagged a moving pirate on a swoop bike without any difficulty.
@mitran: Also if you read judgement of one, Larone tanks a laser bolt, which is present technology, to his chest piece and is armor stopped most of the blast, it missed his organs so he wasn't killed. Stormtrooper training is heavily ingrained they are fanatically loyal to the emperor and will throw themselves at the enemy till they win, along with being very good at what they do. There are clone trooper feats, but those are about clone commando's which wouldn't be fair in this thread.
Stalemate. They both fire for days w/o ever hitting each other.

@mitran: Gotcha, do you actually like Karen Traviss as an author, she kind of ruined one of the halo books for me lol, and her dabbling in the post Galactic Empire novels have been a total letdown.
Also I realize its not as ingrained as a clone troopers training, but they aren't the crack troops of the Empire for nothing, imaging in their HUD is better, and E-11 blasters pack a solid punch.
Stormie see's clone from a distance and puts a couple bolts through his plastoid armor.
@mitran: No I am not I press the reply button it should send you notifications its odd that it doesn't, I didn't like sacrifice just because they
SpoilerALert to any reading the new jedi order series that is set after the Yuuzhan Vong----------------------------------------------
killed off luke's wife, Also Troy Denning killed off Chewy< some grade A BS there, along with Troy Denning killing off Anakin, then in the end Jacen solo. Along with Karen Traviss making Boba Fett cry over his dead daughter who tried to kill him, and he hasn't seen for 50 years, Boba Fett never cries. I was surprised that she didn't make the Clone Commando's sleep with teddy bears in the 501st novels after I read that book lol
Alright if they are close it will be melee combat, both are highly skilled in fighting hand to hand.
@wolfrazer: thats pretty bad tbf
Clone stomps every time. I'd argue a B1 could go 50/50 with the average Stormtrooper and one Clone is worth at least 4-6 of those if not 10 when fighting at full potential.
EU Stormies should win, they have numbers along with better training and equipment, Clones would probably win in Canon tho.
@j_normal: To be fair, the Jedi were taken off guard and some of them were not fully trained Padawans and Knights, someone like Obi Wan or Yoda went through them without much issue, it's still pretty impressive but I wouldn't say that it's out of reach for EU Stormies.
