Basically the reasons for airspeeders on ground maps are...
A: Lore
B: Variety
V-Wings can be transported to other systems via V-Wing transports that are stored in capital ships.
T-47s (snowspeeders...for all you "normal" people) can be transported via Gallofrees.
T-16 Skyhoppers are civillian. They are usually everywhere, because they are a usual personal transport and can be used on many worlds.

Lore could go both ways. Variety means more work for the devs and longer waits for patches. And for what? A ship that does the same thing as the other ships we already have, only it can be used on ground combined arms maps exclusively.

Different weapons and abilities. The V-Wing had a scramjet, that let it reach ridiculous speeds.
Snowspeeders are just obvious...
T-16s are...well...T-16s. (lol?)

Curses, foiled again!

Which are to destroy other ships... Which the current ones already do.

Snowspeeders will come with Hoth

T-16s eventually.

V-Wing, I doubt it will ever be made.

Re: Starfighters on Ground Maps

The V-Wing is cool...lol...the reason i made this, is because the overall attention is payed to all the starfighters, and hardly ever all of the really cool airspeeders that populate the Star Wars Universe.

Curses, foiled again!

Re: Starfighters on Ground Maps

The T-16 has a passenger position lore-wise (I think), so I imagine it could be useful early on as a fast flag capturing transport. Carry passenger to flag, drop him off, have him capture flag, fly off to pick up someone else or go hunt infantry or fighters.

Re: Starfighters on Ground Maps

with a combined map all vehicle's should interact with each other. there should not be separate battles going on, one in the air and one on the ground. The air speeders i think would do a better job of this.
