Star Wars: Storm Bandits

Description
"Stop, traveler scum! Give us your money, now!"

Add a fun fashion twist to your Dust Bandits! These Imperial deserters have gathered in the Borderzone and are preying on anyone they can get their grubby, plastic-armored hands on.

Credits first!

Features
How does it work?
The Dust Bandits are now equipped with a hodgepodge of Stormtrooper armor and their usual rags. Their bosses wield electro staves. Their ranged fighters use E-11 blaster rifles and wear Scout Trooper armor.

Is it balanced?
Probably.

Are they harder to kill?
Not significantly. They still use the same quality armor and weapons, but have more armor coverage.

Anything I should watch out for?
- The Dust King now wields an electro staff with a unique manufacturer that uses a proper glowing skin. It's not especially powerful though.
- Make sure you are using the Community Part Map mod, and to have it above Scout Troopers! in your mod order. It is not a required mod, but the Scouts' Armor won't look so good without it.
- If you want to use this in a current campaign, you'll need to Import to make changes to their base and camps.
- Small amounts of ammunition can be found in black markets and waystations.

If you're able to do it, you might just be able to make a sub-mod like the people who retextured the shawl mod. You could apply that to the stormtrooper armor and the helms easily enough by changing one of the options in the item stats (I forget which, but it's up top).

I could do each one, do you think it would be allowed if I retextured the body armour? I'd have to ask them maybe
Trinity 7 Jul, 2022 @ 7:41am 
like maybe flared helmet or bucket zukin

it's just textures, I can attempt it, It might not look good, I'm not a texture-er

Sadly I have no 3D rendering skills because my computer is too old for any modern software. If you know anyone interested in making a whiter flared helmet, I'd be happy to try it.

they can totally pass as knights, what if I tried to find a suitable helmet for them, or maybe you can just make the flared helmet white or something? it's gotta happen now because the more i think about it, the cooler it would be i think

Thank you for the suggestion will check it
Out :steamhappy:

@Mazza, I did that as well, but kept this one in case people still want it (surprisingly, this one is more popular). Check out Storm Bandits Version 2.0 in my workshop.

Keep dust bandits as normal and transfer new faction :steamhappy:

Alright, I've completed work on making the Storm Bandits as a completely separate faction from the Dust Bandits. So here's a question for you subscribers: Would you like me to overhaul this existing mod and restore the Dusties to normal, or would you like me to add a separate mod so you can keep the Dust Bandits' new look?

P.S.: The new faction will use a different set of equipment from the current version.
