"Quartering troops" is a term that was used in the Eighteenth Century meaning providing adequate housing for British soldiers. This was used in a series of Acts by Parliament to attempt to retain control over the American colonies. While it was a requirement for some time to provide shelter and provisions to British soldiers, the laws were often disregarded.

Troope does not exist in the English language. Troop and troupe do exist, and are more or less interchangeable in meanings. The meanings are a group or collection (of living things only) or a herd. Which word is used to express one of these meanings is contextually determined; there doesn't seem to be a rulethat determines when to use troop, when to use troupe and when neither is appropriate.
