Separatist Vehicles?

Well I know of the Hailfire Droid (rolling rocket), Large Spider Droid, Droideka (although not a vehicle as such), AAT Tank & thats about it.

 

I don't think there will be STAPs, although we don't actually know that there won't. I hope we will be able to use STAPs & MTTs.

 

Cheers,

John

In TPM you see STAPs, AATs (these are the Trade Federation Tanks) MTT & Droid Starfighters. Also you see little vehicles that hold Battle Droids in rack, they can be run independant (as seen on Landing in the Swamp scene) or inside an MTT (see in Battle on the Plains scene).

 

I should hope we can use the MTT as an equivalent to the AT-AT, as the MTT is the biggest droid vehicle used by the Trade Federation.

 

I hope we get -

 

  • STAPs - Equivalent of Swoop
  • AATs - Equivalent of AT-ST
  • MTTs - Equivalent of AT-AT
  • Hailfire Droid - The Rolling Rocket
  • Dwarf Spider Droid
  • Homing Spider Droid
  • Droid Starfighter that can transform from Flying to Walking (seen in TPM at the very beginning)

 

The only Trade Federation Tank I know of is seen in TPM and is called the AAT...I believe most of the vehicles seen in AOTC used by the Separatists are used by the Commerce Guilds etc. Although I could well be wrong here.

Let's not forget the Geonosian Starfighters that featured prominently in AotC. Im sure they will be a strong rival to the Republic's Attack Gunships, or even the V-19 Torrent Starfighter (If Pandemic have gone so far as to introduce this craft into Battlefront, then I will be impressed indeed!).

 

Ive noticed that the troopers in Republic Commando do indeed have New Zealand accents...

 

Needless to say, ill be keeping an eye on you sound people at Lucasarts / Pandemic! ;)

Yes, I believe they fight with the Separatists, but they are computer-controlled, like all other natives on the planets.

 

I've just got a little question, on Naboo, there are going to be Gungans in the battles, but I would not have thought they would be in Theed, so maybe there is a swamp battle? Or battle of the plains that we haven't seen yet?

 

Cheers,

I think one of my worst fears as a Clone Trooper would be to fight out a hard battle and capture a CIS point, only to hear a loud rumble. Looking over a hilltop, seeing a HCE Seismic Tank slowly hovering over to our position..

 

That beast of a contraption gives a new meaning to POWER SLAM.

 

John:

 

To answer your statement regarding what kinds of technical aspects each major member of the CIS has brought forward into the war: the Commerce Guild pledged it's Dwarf Spider Droids and Homing Spider Droids, whilst the InterGalactic Banking Clan provided the Confederacy with the dreaded Hailfire Droid. The Droid Foundries of Geonosis are a perfect example of the impressive technological stranglehold of the Techno Union. It is they who supplied the majority of the hardware used against the Army of the Republic in the Clone Wars. Battle Droids, Super Battle Droids aswell as Droidekas, Geonosian Fighters AATs, MTTs and pretty much most every other vehicle seen utilised by the Trade Federation forces during the events depicted in Episode I.

 

Were it not for Tambor swearing assistance to the Confederate cause; it would have been doubtful that Dooku could have formed an army strong enough to successfully attempt to overthrow the Republic.

 

I seem to be rambling on, so ill pipe up ;)

 

 

Best Wishes

PS: According to one of the Designer Diaries, a new CIS vehicle called the MAF will make a debut appearance in Battlefront. As far as I can tell, it may very well be an airfighter of some sort.
