Next Commanders will either be Anakin for the GAR and Dooku for the CIS or Rex/Cody for the GAR and Nute Gunray for the CIS.

Alright you two @player4031660 and @That Blasted Samophlange Cool it. I’ve already been through one forum argument over a similar topic back before the game released and I’m sure I speak for the whole forum when I say that no one wants a repeat. Now drop the topic

Apologies. I'm just getting very tired of the “fandom”. And the hate for the powers that be creating Star Wars currently, being injected into EVERY facet, where it is not needed.

I fell prey to responding, I feel, an account solely made for antagonistic behavior. Again, apologies for that.

To make amends here is a hopeful clone wars unit:

As the droidekas have two models. So could this; a heavy unit that can walk, or be a flyer. I'd be excited for that. It WOULD cost more as two models for a single unit, but would be visually stunning.

Mechanics wise, a cross between the t-47 and, probably closer to the AT-RT than the at-st.

The scale would certainly fit, as Vultures are very small for starfighters, and the dual mode would make for an interesting unit.

I think Dooku will be opposite Yoda for release for some reason.

I don't know if we will get the roughly analagous in symmetry releases for clone wars. I think commander Anakin will come out versus Operative Ventress.

The clones seem to be hyper elite in terms of units. So I suspect we will see fewer troops on the republic, and more operatives and commanders. The number of skus for Jedi alone will be staggering.

I fully expect the battledroid army tank to be the heavy though.

Though, I wonder if we will get a defoliator tank?

A weapon that attacks an area in which droid troopers are immune could be intetesting.

Maybe the first two heavy could be the CIS tank + at-te with the LAAT + Vulture droid coming out later or vica versa. I guess that the gunship and vulture droids are slightly more iconic

It's a Long shot and doesn't really make sense, but I always thought Admiral Trench would be an amazing model to paint.

Does it have any weapons in walking mode though?

I'm trying to look at this from a slot perspective as well as desires.

GAR

Phase 2 Clone Troopers

Kashyyyk Troopers/ARF Troopers

ARC Troopers

AT-RT

Various Clone and Jedi commanders and Operatives

CIS

Super Battle Droids

Commando Droids

Magnaguards

STAP

AAT

Dwarf Spider/Crab Droid

Various Commanders

Yeah, the two bulges on the main body in front of the "head" are supposed to be some sort of energy torpedo.

I really like the designs for him and Kalani’s armour engravings

For the GAR I'd really like Republic Commandos, and I hope they get the AT-RT. Even if it already exists on the Rebel faction it is a Republic vehicle.

Phase II, Clone Scouts and ARC Troopers are others I hope for and feel are pretty likely.

What I want most tho, but think is a bit of a long shot, is the AT-XT from the Clone Wars game on Game Cube.

My only experience with that walker is from and Empire at War mod where I have been permanently turned off them since there was a bug that caused their rockets to explode in their launch tubes and blow themselves up. But it’s a cool design nonetheless

Yes, according to canon (mind you this was years back so could have changed) the Vultures had 4 wing mounted light laser cannons and a paired anti infantry laser under the head for defense while landed.

Crap! I read through the posts and still missed the response 4 above...oh well, mods feel free to delete this if you find it.

This is why we will get it. it's already made and is in ep3 ridden by the scout corp. I'm happy they didn't release it in the core box, but I'm betting we will see it in the first couple waves.

What would be cool would be a 2 mini at-rt unit for 100pts. And it could have two hardpoint upgrades one for each at-rt

I'll echo this and say I'd love to see the AT-XT. Besides just looking awesome, and really fitting the early-GAR acstetic, this would be a cool way to give the Republic faction a lot of variety in terms of firepower. It's an "experimental" walker, so give it it's main guns, and a single hard point, but several weapon options to choose from. Mortar, anti-armor, grenades, rockets, what have you. Even the energy shield from the Clone Wars game would be a cool adition for a vehicle.

I can't wait for Count Dooku as a commander. I imagine he'll be good in melee and also have a force lightning ranged attack + jump 1 and master of the force 1.

Also just the chance to paint a Christopher Lee model and use him as an evil space wizard in a war game is exciting.

Agreed. Dooku is probably going to be the only commander I'll by more than one of just so I can paint one as Saruman.

The Aethersprite fighter in X-Wing has failed me so far, and even though he’s a long shot; GIVE ME KIT FISTO! (please).

And even though I don’t have plans to run CIS Cad Bane is my fav bounty hunter and Commando Droids are awesome so I’d love to see those units show up as well.

If you haven’t seen my post at the top of the page go read it. Now drop this topic and either contribute helpfully or shut up.

I forgot about the Clone commanders...although I bet we'll get a generic clone commander and a super tactical droid as Specialist/Cheap officers.

There are just SO many Jedi I didn't mention them all, because their aren't parallels in the Seperatists so I doubt we'll see many. After all Dooku v Anakin, Ventress v Ahsoka, Sideous v Yoda, are great and obvious pairings. You then still have Maul and Savage they could throw in, but that still leaves far more Republic Jedi and Characters then the CIS have available.

Wouldn't be shocked to see Mace as well, but I'm not sure about the Night sisters even...Grievous did kind kill em all...Maybe they will end up a sub/seperate faction.

I had a chance to talk to Alex Davy about that. I asked him if there will be plans to have clone commanders be options instead of Jedi. Yes there definitely will be as sometimes you don't want to invest as highly in your commander as Jedi. Then inquiring about if we'll get actual dedicated commanders that we know like Rex, Cody, Gree, Wolffe, etc. he mentioned that they definitely plan to get those in the game. So it seems it's more likely to be either a pack with the named clone commanders together or separate depending on how they want to release them.

I have been wondering how they are going to handle all of the jedi? The problem I have with the Jedi is a huge number of them should play similarly, so I was wondering if we might get a specialist squad of jedi, similar to say the Wookie Warriors. Maybe 2-3 units, with 2 or 3 heavy weapon jedi you could add in? Pricery in points but that seems to be the Republics style.

What I can't wait for are the commando droids. I'm thinking they would be along the same lines as Scout Troopers with a four man (droid) team and a two droid heavy weapons team. The stats for these guys are a little tricky, though. Would they have white defense dice like the B1s or red dice?
