The only time the guards fight is in defending The Emperor or The Dark Council or on a mission for the emperor. For basic defense they keep their cloaks on and use the pikes and force powers. For heavy combat they'll result to removing the robes for more free movement and use their full arsenal of their blaster, lightsaber Pike, grenades, force powers and hand to hand combat abilities. They never go for a wounding attack unless ordered to, they always try and kill. These guards are forbidden to ever discuss anything they hear, even among each other. Failure in this results in execution.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Imperial Shadow Guards have been established since 240 ABY. They were formed to protect the Sith Emperor and the Dark Council. Each guard was hand selected by the Dark Council and the Emperor from the The Sith Marauders. After which they would go through a very long and extremely tough training regime to ready them for their new jobs. To this day the Imperial Shadow Guards are still in use and are very fearsome warriors that are deathly loyal to The Emperor.
