Topic: Vehicle Request

I want this to be a public Vehicle request thread, so I have to put up a few rules to ensure that people won't post stupid suggestions like" I want a giant flying toilet that shoots lazer beamz shaped like ewoks and can blow anything up". Oh and turrets count as vehicles too.

There are only 3 rules; 1: No spam. 2: No uber vehicles that can, as people say now, pwnzorz everything. 3: It must be realistic to the SWU and must follow any lore about it.

     I want only 3 vehicles in game: Jabba's sail barge, equipped with a driver,gunner for three turrets, one in the front and one on each flank, a heavy gunner who mounts the cannon in the back, and a door/ramp operator like in GC. It should have health and ammo inside and should have farely thick armor for a vehicle its size. The skiff, equipped with a driver who is slightly elevated to see over the gunner, four passengers who can use their weapons while onboard( they sit in the center ) and a gunner who mounts a gun that can swivel 270 degrees mounted at the front. It should also give you health and ammo, but at slightly less than the enitial health and ammo packs. And finally, the broadside cruiser. It could have a driver who controls a fixed position tubolaser cannon on the front of the ship, a person who controls remote control missles fired from the bridge, and four laser cannon operators, each cannon being slightly elevated and place on the "wings" on the part where it is still flat so you can have two monted on the top and two on the bottom. It can also have a small hanger with maybe 2 fighters and a bomber. I basically want it to focus on long-range combat and acting as a escort for a ship. It also should have 4 escape pods, if possible.

Re: Vehicle Request

Vehicles that I really want to see are the AT-AA and the T Series such as the T-3B and the T-1B
The AT-AA will be run by 2 men, one is the gunner and the other is the driver or the driver is the gunner too. Same for the T-1B and the T-3B.

Edit: I don't really want to see the T-2B or the T-4B since both came from Empire at War (And the T-4B will appear in the SW Battlefront: Renegade Squadron.)

Re: Vehicle Request

The Broadside would be for the Empire. The rebels would have the Marauder cruiser, which would have the driver control the tubolaser and missle launcher, the gunner control a dual turbolaser turret on the top, and the rest of the guns and equipment are the same as the Broadside. But the Marauder has less armor and range in exchange for greater speed and close-in fighting capability.
The missles would also be able to home in on their target. This essentially makes it a hit-and-run type of ship, perfect for the rebels style of fighting, unlike the artillary-like nature of the Broadside.
Another ship that could conceviably work would be the Dreadnaught. On each of its flanks would be a five gun turbolaser battery, with the controllers also having their alt. fire be 7 to 10 laser cannons for point defense. The driver would be able to shoot one fixed position tubolaser cannon and could launch up to 4 proton torpedos at a time directly ahead ( The Dreadnaught was extreamly easy to modify. This version is intended for the rebels, to make up for their close combat weaknesses).
The remaing three positions would all be laser cannons, all mounted on or near the bridge of the ship. It would have a hanger on the bottom that can carry 3 fighters, bombers, or interceptors. or any combination of the three. Of course, it would have fairly thick armor and would be fairly slow. And of course, it would have 8 escape pods for when the thing takes a beating. Each escape pod would launch from between two tubolaser guns in the batterys. It would also have a small armory onboard for maps like Tanabb in GC. The batterys would have to have a degree of inaccuracy, both to prevent the thing from overpowering other ships because of its fairly rapid fire rate and amount of guns, and because the things were not the newest ships around during the Galactic Civil War i.e. old targeting computers. This ship is obviously designed for broadsides, so that smaller ships can inadvertently counter the things armor because it has to provide a larger target for maximum firepower. Heh, imagine giving a Broadside a broadside.

Re: Vehicle Request

I've never heard of the broadside? Is it one of those new EAW ships? I don't think we should go there unless we've used the X-Wing series ships.

Re: Vehicle Request

Broadside missile corvette, yes, thats the one.
