You could give him the 501st when he has a Star Destroyer, and the contingent gets bigger as he gets bigger ships.

It'll happen... I'm just not doing land-based hero aspects until there's an actual, working land mechanic.

Roger. Looking forward to it.

Agreed. He dies in no time at all.

Especially in light of the direction that the mod is heading on Land, I recommend giving Vader elements of the 501st Legion when he's in ground mode.

Why?
-It's canon: Vader very rarely is seen on planet without a cadre of troopers (think Hoth, Bespin, Endor).
-It's consistent with the timeline. In 18 BBY, Vader is running around the newly formed Empire with elements of the 501st kicking butt and taking names for Palpatine.
-It helps on Land: The way Land is going is not a healthy place for infantry...even Force adept infantry with Sith cybernetics and body armor. Having a bunch of canon fodder around might increase Vader's lifespan.

How?
-Recommend just giving Vader a standard stormtrooper unit in land as part of his cost. Nothing fancy. Maybe make them slightly better shots.
