Ben Mendelsohn is Director Krennic, the director of the Imperial Military. The book also reveals the new black-armoured Stormtroopers are called Death Troopers, and they’re described as “elite empire soldiers with the sole purpose of thwarting Rebel Alliance forces.”

New Ships

The book includes pictures of previously unseen vehicles including a Rebel Starfighter that looks reminiscent of an A-Wing with long fins projecting from the front, the Stormtrooper tank seen in the first trailer, and a TIE Striker.
