. While in general the Empire welcomed the defectors, they were reluctant to give them official membership in the military or provide them with military supplies and ammunition. Because of this, defectors had to rely on what equipment they had when they left the ranks of the Republic army and gather what they needed during the engagements.
This did not detract from their combat value to the Empire, since their experience and skills allowed them to provide for themselves well and made them a force to be reckoned with. The act of desertion was generally considered an act of treason and their former comrades were especially aggressive towards them because of what they had done.
While under the overall command of Imperial commanders, defectors often retained their previous military structure and line of command. To replace their losses, they recruited volunteers into their ranks, both from the civilian population and from the planetary defense forces, wherever they could.
