Clone shadow troopers were an elite cadre of clone troopers, devised by Director Armand Isard of Republic Intelligenceduring the Clone Wars. Since the numbers of the Advanced Recon Commandos were dwindling, Isard created the shadow troopers as a reconnaissance unit, who, with the benefit of greatly modified and expensive armor, could operate covertly and undercover. Using magseals installed in their armor, shadow troopers could attach plates to themselves that could pass them off as mercenaries belonging to certain factions. With that advantage, they could infiltrate facilities and gather intelligence with ease.

During the late stages of the war, the role of the shadow trooper expanded, with some performing sniper duties, while others would be used on the battlefield. Though their jamming systems would prevent them from working alongside standard troopers, shadow troopers were occasionally dispatched before large-scale invasions to install jamming devices in key cities, which would allow their comrades to infiltrate their targets with stealth and efficiency. Shadow troopers saw later use in the Galactic Empire as guards to both facilities and individuals. In particular, Inquisitor Valin Draco enlisted a group of the troopers for his expedition to the Almas Academy. The shadow troopers would later become the model on which storm commandos and shadow stormtroopers were based.
克隆人暗影部队是克隆人部队的精英组成部分,由共和国情报局局长阿曼德-艾萨德在克隆人战争期间创立。随着先进侦查突击队士兵的数量日益减少,艾萨德创立了暗影部队作为侦查部队,得益于高度改进和极其昂贵的盔甲,他们可以秘密行动。通过盔甲上的磁性密封装置(magseals),暗影部队的士兵可以在自己身上附着镀层来伪装成某些集团的雇佣兵。有了这一优势,他们可以轻而易举地渗入设施并收集情报。

在战争后期,暗影部队士兵所扮演的角色得到了扩展,一些暗影士兵执行狙击任务,另一些则被用于战场。尽管他们的干扰装置会使他们无法与普通士兵一起作战,但在大规模入侵前,暗影部队偶尔也会被派遣到主要城市安装干扰设备,以使他们的战友隐秘而高效地潜入目标。暗影部队后来被银河帝国用作设施及个人的守卫。值得一提的是,裁判官瓦林-德拉科曾召集了一小队士兵与他前往阿尔马斯学院(Almas Academy)。暗影部队后来成为了冲锋突击队和暗影冲锋队的原型。

History
During the Clone Wars, Director Armand Isard of Republic Intelligence developed the shadow trooper division, which was created to serve as a reconnaissance tool. Their formation was designed to combat the dwindling numbers of Advanced Recon Commandos, but they could operate in a far more covert manner than that of the commandos. The shadow troopers were given highly modified and highly expensive armor that suited their roles better than the standard fatigues.[1]

In 19 BBY, when General Grievous of the Confederacy of Independent Systems was located on Utapau, shadow troopers were called in to infiltrate six of the planet's sinkhole cities and place jammers that would allow[1] General Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Third Systems Army to invade the planet without notice. As a result, Grievous was killed, and Utapau was placed under Galactic Republic control.[3][4]

In the aftermath of the Clone Wars, Palpatine, now Emperor of the galaxy following his Declaration of a New Order, established a secret storehouse on Utapau and assigned the shadow troopers to guard it. While the rest of the Stormtrooper Corps received an upgrade from the Phase II clone trooper armor to stormtrooper armor, shadow troopers retained their original appearance under the new regime, as a grim reminder of Palpatine's ascension. The phrase "Emperor's black bones" was said to have originated from someone who set eyes upon members of the cadre during Palpatine's reign.[2]

In 19 BBY, Palpatine sent his apprentice, Darth Vader, to the Ghost Nebula to find an ImperialStar Destroyer, under the command of Admiral Garoche Tarkin, which had gone missing. Landing on the planet Atoa, Darth Vader and his 501st Legion troopers engaged the Atoanforces. During the fighting, shadow troopers under the command of Captain Shale were able to launch a sneak attack on the Atoans allowing the Imperial forces to defeat them.[5]

Inquisitor Valin Draco enlisted the shadow troopers for his own cause, reasoning that if they were good enough to guard Palpatine's storehouses, they were good enough to guard him.[2] In circa 17 BBY,[6] he took a small detachment of the troops to the Almas Academy, where he searched for Darth Rivan's holocron. Within the academy, he and his guard were confrontedand defeated by a group of Alderaanian Resistance agents working for the fugitive Jedi MasterDenia.[2]

The success of Isard's shadow troopers would breed several variants in the Imperial Period, in particular the storm commandos and the shadow stormtroopers, which were used by Imperialagent Blackhole.[1]

1,历史
在克隆人战争期间,共和国情报局局长阿曼德-艾萨德创建了暗影部队以用于侦察。他们的成立是为了增援日益减少的先进侦查突击队士兵。但他们的行动比突击兵们要隐秘的多。他们被给予了高度改进和极其昂贵的盔甲,这相比于标准作战服更适合他们所扮演的角色。

在19BBY,当得知独立星系邦联的格里弗斯将军位于尤塔帕时,暗影部队被召集来渗透这个星球上的六个天坑城市(sinkhole cities)并部署干扰器以允许欧比旺-克诺比将军以及第三多星系军在不被注意的情况下入侵。作为结果,格里弗斯被杀,尤塔帕被置于银河共和国的控制之下。

在克隆人战争之后,帕尔帕廷,现在在他的新秩序宣言后作为银河系的皇帝,在尤塔帕建立了一个秘密仓库并派暗影部队去守卫它。当剩余的冲锋队员从克隆人二代甲升级为冲锋队盔甲时,暗影部队在新政权下保留了他们原来的外观,作为帕尔帕廷崛起的残酷提醒。据说,习语“皇帝的黑骨头”(Emperor’s black bones)就起源于一位在帕尔帕廷统治期间看到暗影部队的成员的人。

在19BBY,帕尔帕廷派他的徒弟达斯-维达去幽灵星云寻找一艘由海军上将加罗什-塔金指挥,已经失踪的帝国歼星舰。达斯-维达和他的501军团士兵登陆阿托尔星球,与亚托阿人军队交战。战斗期间,在谢尔上校的指挥下,暗影部队能够对亚托阿人发动偷袭,以使帝国军队打败了他们。

裁判官瓦林-德拉科召集暗影部队士兵是为了它自己的目的,他认为如果暗影部队能够很好地守卫帕尔帕廷的仓库,也就能很好地保卫他。在大约17BBY的时候,他率领了一小分队的士兵到阿尔马斯学院(Almas Academy)去寻找达斯-里文(Darth Rivan)的全息记录仪。在学院内,他们遇到了一群为逃亡绝地大师德妮雅(Denia)工作的奥德朗抵抗势力(Alderaanian Resistance)特工并被打败。

艾萨德的暗影部队的成功使他们在帝国时期衍生出几个变种,特别是冲锋突击队和帝国特工黑洞使用的暗影冲锋队。

Equipment
Shadow trooper armor was based on standard Phase II clone trooper armor, although it featured several strategically placed magseals. The magseals allowed for the placement of cosmetic plates that could alter each individual trooper's appearance, with different plates giving them the appearance of a Hutt Cartel or Black Sun mercenary, or other miscellaneous factions. While the plates could disguise the wearer's sensor signature and project the image of something other than a Human, they were primarily for appearances only.[1]

The plates could also alter the walk of a clone trooper, disguising the "clone gait" that was familiar to some. A jaw switch was installed in the armor, in case a shadow trooper's identity was discovered. Activating the switch would disengage all magseals and allow the trooper to regain full use of his Phase II armor. As a further modification, the Phase II armor was covered with a sensor reflective material, which absorbed active scans. It was also protected from passive scans by thermal dampers and electro-magnetic hardening.[1] The visor of the helmet gave off a red glow, which, in conjunction with their dark appearance, was considered intimidating by some.[2] Some shadow troopers would wear kamas and pauldrons.[7]

Omni-directional jammers further enhanced the shadow trooper's invisibility, although with such devices in operation, they usually could not operate in close proximity with standard clone troopers, whose helmet systems would suffer the effects of the jamming. Instead of wielding the standard DC-15S, shadow troopers were equipped with the DC-19 "Stealth" carbine, which featured a sound suppressor, so the troopers could operate in relative silence. An optional function, which allowed the blaster to fire bolts invisible to the regular visual spectrum, was favored by shadow trooper snipers. The invisible bolts, however, were highly expensive, had to be reloaded after ten shots, and as a result of their usage, the DC-19s had to be cooled down afterwards to prevent damage to the weapon's dampeners. Vibrodaggers rounded out the shadow trooper armory.[1] In addition to their standard kit, troopers could use DC-15A blaster rifles[8] and blaster pistols commonly utilized by scout troopers.[7]

Although the distinctive standard Republic gunship was not well suited for shadow troopers' generally low operational numbers and need for stealth, modified shadow trooper gunships, equipped with highly advanced sensor-jamming packages and specialized sensor-refractive armor plating, were employed in cases where an entire squad was to be inserted behind enemy lines.[9]

2,装备
暗影部队的盔甲基于标准的克隆人二代甲,而它的重要组成部分是战略上置于其上的磁性密封装置(magseals)。这些磁性密封装置(magseals)允许附着伪装镀层(cosmetic plates)来改变每个独立士兵的外观,这些镀层能使他们看起来像赫特卡特尔或者黑日的佣兵,亦或是其他各种派别的人。尽管这些镀层可以伪装穿戴者的传感器信号并投射不同于人类的事物的影像,它们主要作用于表象。

这些镀层同样可以伪装克隆人士兵的步态,掩盖某些人熟悉的“克隆人步伐”。这套盔甲在下颔处有一个开关,以在一名暗影部队士兵身份暴露时使用。激活这个开关将会解除所有磁性密封装置并允许士兵重新充分使用他的二代甲。作为进一步的改进,二代甲上覆盖了传感器反射材料,可以吸收主动扫描。它还通过热阻尼器(thermal dampers)和电磁加固(electro-magnetic)的保护免受被动扫描。头盔的面罩会发出红色的光芒,再结合它黑暗的外表,这对于有些人来说令人生畏。一些暗影部队的士兵也佩戴卡马和肩甲。

全方位干扰器(Omni-directional jammers)进一步增强了暗影部队士兵的隐形能力,然而由于这种装置的使用,他们通常无法与标准克隆人士兵一起近距离并肩作战,那些标准克隆人的头盔系统一样会遭受干扰的影响。相比于运用标准DC-15s,暗影部队装备了DC-19s“隐形”卡宾枪,它的特点是装有一个消音器,因此士兵可以相对安静地行动。一个可以使爆能枪发射在常规视觉光谱内不可见的能量束的可选功能,深受暗影部队狙击手的青睐。然而发射这种隐形能量束(的混合物)却非常昂贵,在十次射击后必须重新装载,并且由于它们的使用,DC-19s事后必须冷却以防止对武器的消音器(dampeners)造成损坏。振动匕首丰富了暗影部队的军械储备。除了标准装备,士兵们也能使用DC-15A爆能步枪和侦察兵常用的爆能手枪。

尽管极富特色的标准共和国炮艇不太适合暗影部队通常情况下的低作战数量和对隐秘行动的需求,装有高度先进的传感干扰程序组(sensor-jamming packages)和专门的传感器折射(sensor-refractive)镀层装甲的暗影部队炮艇,会在一整个小队需要安插在敌后的情况下部署。

Application
Used primarily for reconnaissance, shadow troopers would operate alone, in pairs, or, less commonly, in squads.[9] While still in their armor, they would work undercover, posing as bounty hunters or other mercenaries, which allowed them to discreetly enter and leave locations and adequately collect valuable intelligence. They were aided in their efforts by their effectively sensor-proof suits of armor. Due to the high-tech jamming equipment built into their armor, shadow troopers, for the most part, did not operate alongside standard clones, for fear of disrupting their comrades helmet systems.[1]

Some shadow troopers operated as snipers, using the "invisible bolt" feature of the DC-19 carbine to great effect. In some situations, such as the one on Utapau in the waning days of the Clone Wars, shadow troopers were inserted to ensure the successful entry of a much larger invasion force.[1] During the reign of Emperor Palpatine, shadow troopers' roles would extend to protection, and they would be assigned to guard either installations or key personnel.[2]

3,用途
主要用于侦察,暗影部队的士兵会单独行动,成对行动,或者不太常见的是,他们会一个小队一起行动。当他们还穿着他们的盔甲的时候,他们会做卧底,假扮成赏金猎人或者其他雇佣兵,以允许他们秘密进出某些地点并充分收集有价值的情报。他们那有效地适应他们盔甲的传感验证器(sensor-proof)辅助了他们的行动。由于盔甲上安装的高科技干扰设备,害怕扰乱到他们队友的头盔系统,暗影部队在大多数情况下不与标准克隆人并肩作战。

一些暗影部队的士兵像狙击手一样行动,运用DC-19卡宾枪上的“隐形能量束”来达到目的。在某些情况下,例如克隆人战争末期尤塔帕星球的那次,他们被部署以确保更大规模入侵部队的成功进入。在帕尔帕廷皇帝统治期间,暗影部队的作用被扩展到保护,他们被指派去保卫设施或者重要人员。

Behind the scenes
The shadow trooper originated as a Hasbro action figure from the 2005Revenge of the Sith line. The figure was a Target exclusive, and was labeled "Utapau shadow trooper."[8] The backstory of the shadow troopers was elaborated on by Sam D. Garito, writing under the alias of "Maso Tirag," through StarWars.com's Hyperspace feature "What's The Story?" In his writings, Garito made connections between the troopers and such elements from the Expanded Universe as Armand Isard from Michael A. Stackpole's X-Wing: Rogue Squadron, and the Blackhole stormtroopers from Russ Manning's Gambler's World. The shadow troopers would later be used by Abel G. Peña and Jean-François Boivinin the role-playing adventure Echoes of the Jedi as non-player characters. In Star Wars Insider 100, the shadow troopers were listed at number sixty-two in the 100 Greatest Things About Star Wars... Ever! list. The article erroneously listed the Dusty Duck, which came in at number seventy-one, to be the only "What's the Story?" entry to make the list. In 2008, more shadow trooper figures were produced by Hasbro, and were at first exclusively sold at Jedi-Con 2008, before being made available on StarWars.com.[7]

In the 2011 non-canonical video game LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, a clone shadow trooper model can be built by obtaining all ten LEGO minikits in the "Blue Shadow Virus" level. When this has been done, a clone shadow trooper can be purchased and used in the Free Play mode of the game. However, the “clone shadow trooper” is in reality an Imperial shadow stormtrooper.

一个孩之宝暗影部队士兵人偶

4,幕后故事
暗影部队起初是由孩之宝公司在2005年推出的西斯的复仇系列中的一个活动人偶。这张照片(见上图)是由塔吉特(Target)公司独家拍摄的,然后被贴上了“尤塔帕暗影部队”的标签。暗影部队的详细背景故事是由山姆.D.加里托(Sam.D.Garito)以“Maso Tirag”的化名在StarWars.com的超空间专题文章“故事是什么?”中撰写的。在他的笔下,加里托把这些士兵与传说宇宙中的一些要素联系了起来,例如迈克尔.A.斯塔克波尔(Michael.A.Stackpole)作品X翼:侠盗中队中的阿曼德-艾萨德,和鲁斯-曼宁(Russ Manning)作品賭徒之世界(Gambler’s World)中黑洞的冲锋队。后来,暗影部队被 Abel G. Peñah和Jean-François Boivin的角色扮演类冒险游戏《绝地的回声》(Echoes of the Jedi)中,作为一个玩家不可使用的角色。在星球大战知情者100(Star Wars Insider 100)中,暗影部队在星球大战有史以来最伟大的100件事(100 Greatest Things About Star Wars…Ever!)的列表中排在第62位。这篇文章错误地把排在第72位的“土鸭子号”列为了唯一一个登上了排名榜的“故事是什么”中的条目。在2008年,孩之宝制作了更多暗影部队的人偶,并在2008年的绝地武士大会(Jedi-Con)上首次独家销售,之后才在Star Wars.com上销售。

在2011年非正史电子游戏乐高星球大战3:克隆人战争( LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars)中,克隆人暗影部队士兵的模型可以在“蓝影病毒”关卡里获取全部十个迷你组件(minikits)后创建。当完成后,克隆人暗影部队士兵可以被购買并在游戏的免费模式中使用。然而,这里的“克隆人暗影部队士兵”实际上就是帝国暗影冲锋队。
