Their range greatly exceeds Force Slam's, so add a little distance between the troopers and the Jedi... and supply a paucity of cover, and you get a much more dangerous encounter. And let's say the troopers have a grenade or two each and a willingness to use them, then the balance swings in their favor.Remember that an average damage of 14 pts. for the Force Slam means that almost half of the troopers will survive a single slam and retaliate.The difficulty of that encounter is up to the GM; the stormtroopers could be set-up in such a way that their knocked down like bowling pins, with a commensurate level of threat, or the encounter could represent a significant tactical challenge.</blockquote>
