By KaLeu, in Star Wars: Armada

Think the Empire had access to this refit as well? Are we looking at a Raider-II, or was this only a one off for the alliance?

In trailers I think I have been seeing this guy:

That is the perfect size for a Flotilla, even if it is a bit goofy looking.

That's basically a troop transport. It was used in the clone wars to deploy droids on Kamino. Like an MTT, the 'beak' opens and a rack of droids comes out. The length is largely the tentacles, I think.

Those are used as background elements in the Kamino Galactic Assault map in Battlefront II. The map starts out with the clones trying to defend the genetic archive in a riff of the Clone Wars animated story they appeared in for the game. You don't fly them or fight them thus far.
