With EaW units! Check out this news here at PFF!

 

As the topic title points out: Discussion goes in here!

I'm starting to think the databank is nothing more than a marketing ploy, with the write your own character story and video game entries.

 

still cool tho.

Is it just me, or did the Tartan and Broadside look alot smaller than 600 m and 500 m in-game? Something's not right there.

 

I do like the retcon connecting the AT-AA with Rothana Heavy Engineering (since the walker was first seen in 2000 and the company first mentioned in 2002).

 

The SPMA article also basically points out the use of SPHA walkers for the Empire's first few years. But I don't like the whole "it's drastically reduced in size, yet has the same firepower!!!"-explanation. That's too convenient, even for a society that hasn't had a serious conflict for 1000 years. I suppose there ain't no room for a SPHA upgrade in a future patch or expansion?

Notice how the "original" 2-M is basically a slightly different looking Ubrikkian 1-M. Shame on them.

Actually, you should blame The Clone Wars, which came out in 2002 and introduced the TX-130S repulsor tank, which the 2-M originates from.

 

I actually like the Saber-class line's connection with the Imperial-class tanks.
