The ARMAGEDDON Troopers were an elite group of soldiers bred to do whatever was necessary to achieve total victory at whatever cost. They wore advanced ARMAGEDDON Suits, which allowed them to fight like mobile tanks and passable starfighters. They were in all ways superior to standard front line troops, or even crack shock assault troops. Grown from superior genetic stock than the regular clone troopers and trained with far more grueling and lethal techniques, the ARMAGEDDON Troopers (referred to after this as A-Troops) were lethally effective even without their robotic companions.
