Oh, and I loved the part with the AT-ST getting blown up. Camera could perhaps a bit lower, though, so that some of the shrapnel flew over it and to the side of it, not just below it.
Yes, it's like the fighters in GC. Forward key is sub-light engines, as in space maps, Reverse key is repulsorlifts. So in essence, the fighters controls are like those of the Harriers in BF2.
I know the whole repulsorlift thing, but it would be pretty lame to be on the ground with an x-wing hovering ready to mow you down.
Again, think Harrier, or helicopter gunship for that matter. The deflector shield carried by the HWS class will see very frequent usage, I think.
