Can't think of anything at the moment will post when I do.

[TheEmpire]

I have 3 ideas.

Seraph landspeeder or Flash speeder. Some were stolen by the rebels


AAC-1

[anakinskysolo]

My suggestions:

Rebel Armored Freerunner


Technical Specifications:
Armament: 2 Rotating gun platforms
2 Laser cannons
Crew: 2
Passengers: 2
Length: 14.6 meters
Width: Unknown
Maximum speed: Unknown

T1-B

3 Flak pods

Co-pilot
2 gunners

T3-B


Technical Specifications:

Gian Speeder


Technical Specifications:
Armament: 2 Light repeating blasters
1 Blaster cannon
Crew: Pilot
Gunner
Length: 5.7 meters
Width: 4 meters approx.
Maximum speed: 160 km/h

Heavy Assault Vehicle/wheeled A5 Juggernaut


Technical Specifications:
Armament: 2 Fixed heavy laser cannons
1 Turreted heavy laser cannon
1 Turreted blaster cannon
2 Turreted concussion grenade launchers
Crew: 2 Pilots
6 Gunners
Length: 21.8 meters
Heigth: 15 meters
Maximum speed: 200 km/h (25 km/h during turns)

Ultra-Light Assault Vehicle


Technical Specifications:
Armament: Twin laser cannon
Concussion grenade launcher
Medium blaster cannon
Crew: Pilot
Gunner
Length: 7 meters
Width: 5 meters aprox.
Maximum speed: 400 km/h

V-Wing Airspeeder


Technical specifications:
Armament: 2 Fire-linked blaster cannons
Missile launcher (optional) with capacity for 6 cluster missiles
Crew: Pilot

Some problems may appear because of the lack of accurate speed measure of some vehicles, because I believe PR will use canon speed as he did with starships. But I believe the rest are viable.

I'd like to avoid prequel vehicles...especially naboo vehicles, the rebels wouldn't logically get those things...can stand them that much...also more details should be given. And also that stuff from Star Wars battlefront not consistent enough.

Anyway...:



Anyone remember these from the original Rogue Squadron? Smaller ones could be good attack vehicles and the larger things cargo/troop carriers.

Moving on...

T1-B hovertank

http://starwars.wiki.../T1-B_hovertank





From Force Commander. Main guns anti-infantry, similar in firepower to an AT-PT's twin blasters. The side pod could shoot flak like the AT-AA. Vehicle should be relatively fast.


T3-B Heavy Attack Tank

http://starwars.wiki...avy_attack_tank



Two main guns could be similar power to an AT-AT's laser cannons. Fires in bursts (possibly linked). And it's missile pods could be similar to the weapons on Plex Troopers just heavier.

V-Wing Airspeeder

http://starwars.wiki...wing_airspeeder





Perhaps to bring them into battle you need the V-Wing transports in the fleet to deploy them into the atmosphere...hmm...

Wonder what niche these could fill, though, should be faster and more nimble than T-47 Airspeeder....oh and have the rapid-fire ability to punch through enemy targets.

I request for a mod to sticky this.

[TheEmpire]

And also that stuff from Star Wars battlefront not consistent enough.

I really don't care if the AAC-1 is in the mod or not it was not that good but it is canon.
Ok 1 more. The Arrow 23 Transport Landspeeder

[Casen]

That's not bad. Good suggestion.

[TheEmpire]

A few more.
DF.9 anti-infantry artillery.Could have a upgrade to the Twin DF.9 with the addition of firepower at the cost of armor. The imperals also used these.


SRV.Could ugrade to SRV Repulsorlift.


Mobile Proton Torpedo Launcher.First version of the one in the game.


Ultra Light Assault Vehicle. Phased out of the empire for lack of intimidation. Ha

[Casen]

Lets try to avoid ANYTHING that was made just for Galactic Battlegrounds...that game was horrible...

I like that mobile anti-infantry battery though...

[TheEmpire]

Never heard of the game but some vehicles are good.

[Casen]

You posted that version of the Loratus Mobile Proton Torpedo Launcher that's from it.

I'd accept the Force Commander version.

Just Galactic Battlegrounds didn't even feel like Star Wars it made little sense and the vehicles were made for the game...granted same with Force Commander but Force Commander felt way more like Star Wars.

Because you don't like it you're telling people NOT To post it? You put this thread here so people could suggest what they wanted to see in PR didn't you?

Let people post what they want Kacen...

[Casen]

Uh well uh okay...

I just don't want this turning into a messed-up mod.

[anakinskysolo]

Yeah but your opinion of a messed-up mod is different from others. For example, you seem to hate prequel vehicles, while I consider that some of them could go in the mod, like the Gian speeder. So just let people show their suggestions, and PR will decide which are viable and which are not to be considered.

[TheEmpire]

The Gian speeder is still a good idea because it is just what the rebels had, fast, outdated, stolen, good for hit and run attacks.
The AAC I don't like it but it is still a good idea.
Think what the rebels had and would use and that would make it a good mod. Now that I think about it they used anything that could be mounted with weapons. Very few of the thing the rebels had (or stole) was built for warfare they just added weapons to it and attacked with it.

[Phoenix Rising]

I just don't want this turning into a messed-up mod.

I'm not really planning on letting that happen...

I certainly tend to favor the WEG stuff, but at this point I can't really say one way or another. Feel free to keep speculating though .

[skie9173]

hey, i'm new here. been browsing around the forums for awhile as a guest. hadn't made any posts yet but i decided to finally create an account. Got to say i love the mod PR. great work man. looking forward to any advancements you make with it.

anyway back to the topic at hand... i was bored and figured i'd look around wookieepedia some for rebel unit ideas (i prefer rebs over imps).
found a few interesting things, mostly new ideas for this topic. problem is some seem to have canon problems, but i figured i'd through them out there.

AHS-1 heavy assault airspeeder
A sort of land based K-wing is the impression i got

MLC-3 Mobile Laser Cannon
ehh very sketchy but just an idea

T-16 skyhopper
hey if it wasn't for practice in this (and the force) Luke may never have bulls-eyed that Death Star vent

Cloud Car
maybe only build-able on Bespin, rebs and imps?

Amphibion
a new slightly more canon transport?

Tarrvin-on-Kallik aerospace fighters
as seen in Starfighters of Adumar of the X-wing novels. only build-able at Adumar of course...if it is even in the mod that is

as far as rebel units go that's all i found for now. i did find some CSA units if anyone is interested, but i figured it'd be better to focus on main fractions. some more diversity for CSA or pirate ground units could be nice in far off versions/updates though lol
hope i posted all this stuff right...

[Admiral_Antilles]

Tarrvin-on-Kallik aerospace fighters

I dont think the BLADE serise would be used, as there are GREATLY out done by even the Hoth Snow Speeder....

[Kalo Shin]

And atleast try to suggest Vehicles with more than just a crappy sketch for reference...
