Yeah, that would be funny, kinda like crouching over somebody's body after killing them in a multiplayer game . . .
Actually, not all the newer stormtroopers are clones, new recruits became stormtroopers, such as Kyle himself.

The clonetroopers are clone, the stormtroopers aren't, necessarily. Palpatine needed a big army, quickly, so he bought clones. But once the dictatorship was instated, he could just use conscription; which he did. It was cheaper than buying more clones...

Not to mention one of the battles of the Clone Wars was fought on Kamino (see Star Wars: Battlefront... 2, I think) so there was a good chance they were left without the ability to produce clones for some time, if ever again.
At least, I assume Battlefront is EU. Then again they just made a bunch of movie planets and let you fight on all of them so... maybe not so much.

Yeah, in Battlefront 2 the Kaminoans have some clones rise up against the Empire, but Stormtroopers go and steal the cloning technology for Palpatine.
I do know that one of the Ragnos mercs in Jedi Academy talks about how he was a stormtrooper once, if you sneak up behind him . . .
It's always fun to listen in on Stormtrooper conversations in Jedi Outcast and Academy, they sound so retarded  I wish they did that in DF . . .

Lawyer-safe icon, just in case. Probably not necessary.

Mmmm, I'm guessing a completely lawyer-safe DarkXL is gonna involve Secbase without stormtroopers and walls full of "Default" textures

Nah, just one where nothing is distributed that is derived from something Lucas did. The Stormtrooper icon is derived from a Stormtrooper pic by Lucas Art. While this is just XL with a tiny bit of Dark that you can imagine behind.
