Shinies

Shinies
Unassigned Troopers, derogatorily known as "shinies" by other regiments, became a so called "regiment" on the Poseidon during the Clone Wars. Although amongst the republic they were usually quickly trained and assigned to a regiment or battalion, never reaching ranks above Corporal, on the Poseidon they were a rag tag group with high ranking leadership and with a much higher level of organization compared to other shiny groups on ships in the Republic Fleet.

Ranking
Unlike other ships in the Republic Fleet, the Shinies on the Poseidon had members ranking up to Marshall Commander.

Equipment
As Shinies are usually intended to join another regiment, they do not receive any special equipment or roles. All Shinies are equipped with standard DC-15A blasters & Phase I clone armour.
