Imperial Urban Guard Regiment

The Urban Guard Regiment was an elite unit attached to the Emperor's Royal Guard.

Composition
The Urban Guard was composed of riot stormtroopers as well as Imperial shock troopers for support. Urban Guardsmen specialized in the use of cortosis-plated electrostaffs.

Operations
The Urban Guard were often deployed to occupied cities to reinforce the Imperial units that were policing these territories. Some riot troopers also served as bodyguards to Imperial governors and, in rare cases, Imperial generals. Urban Guardsmen that excelled their peers often became candidates for the Emperor's Royal Guard.
