http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/TX-130T_fighter_tank

is it in?

Its Battlefront stuff=non-canon.

Godzilla · « **Reply #2 on:** December 15, 2008, 08:17 am »

Actually, it has appeared in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars video game (the one with the Dark Reaper) and I don't believe that game is considered non-canon. *leaves it to the experts*

Its cannon, don't know if its in though.

D · « **Reply #4 on:** December 15, 2008, 08:33 pm »

why....its basically just a 2m

urkspleen · « **Reply #5 on:** December 15, 2008, 09:03 pm »

because 2M won't work in the republic, which is the era in which this tank operated

M Doyle · « **Reply #6 on:** December 15, 2008, 09:55 pm »

republic, and i think it'll be an ani-infantry vehical as the laser was forv slicing up droids. that or it could be medium VS infantry and tanks

e^(πi)+1=0 · « **Reply #7 on:** December 15, 2008, 11:27 pm »

the 2-M and the TX-130 only share a similar chassis; the TX-130 is smaller, faster, less armored, has different lasers, and has an open beam turret instead of a closed heavy laser cannon.

urkspleen · « **Reply #8 on:** December 16, 2008, 01:58 am »

yes, and i think that although they were different in several ways, the TX-130 could still that same anit infantry and vehicle role that the 2M tries to do but epically fails.

e^(πi)+1=0 · « **Reply #9 on:** December 16, 2008, 02:40 am »

2M will be changed around to be stronger against light armor, TX-130 would be all-around.

assuming of course that the TX-130 makes it into the mod.

just in case: 1-0

I don't really think this would require a vote. I think it's more on the cutting edge floor for the staff.

I'm kinda getting the impression that the staff are kinda mixed on this one and that it could be in or could be out. I'm pretty sure they were aware that the TX-130 existed.

Dr. Doozer · « **Reply #15 on:** December 16, 2008, 04:45 am »

Yes, it existed. It played a sizeable roll, but some don't think it was that big.

I say it should be in to be the 2-M of the Republic. They are literally identical.

urkspleen · « **Reply #16 on:** December 16, 2008, 04:50 am »

they have very smilier chassis, but their armaments were pretty different...

Dr. Doozer · « **Reply #17 on:** December 16, 2008, 04:51 am »

They were both heavy assault tanks. One was faster and had concussion grenades and a beam turret, while the other was slower with heavier cannons.

e^(πi)+1=0 · « **Reply #18 on:** December 16, 2008, 09:54 pm »

no, not at all. Like I just said, their only similar armaments are concussion missiles:
2M:
deflector shields
medium armor
concussion missiles
anti-infantry cannon
heavy rotating anti-armor laser cannon
TX-130/IFT-X:
deflector shields
light armor
dual heavy laser cannon (not anti-armor)
concussion missiles
rotating beam turret

Corusca Fire · « **Reply #19 on:** December 16, 2008, 10:10 pm »

I love the idea. The republic needs a good speedy tank. Perfectly cannon, and amazingly awesome.

andres_16 · « **Reply #20 on:** December 16, 2008, 11:05 pm »

yes is a good idea

Mir'ika · « **Reply #21 on:** December 17, 2008, 02:12 am »

Indeed

Mr. Recluse, the Beta Tester(Greiv55) · « **Reply #22 on:** December 20, 2008, 10:34 pm »

I Definately agree with this, as it is canon and filled role that the AT-TE couldn't as a fast attack Anti-infantry and Anti-Armor(Light-Medium) tank. Like the AAT closely did for the CIS.

urkspleen · « **Reply #23 on:** December 20, 2008, 10:37 pm »

okay, we vote now....

1-0

I think it should be used for the Republic. That fits good.

SoulPain (FanEAW) · « **Reply #26 on:** December 21, 2008, 04:18 am »

3-0, the TX-130 was pretty much a all purpose task vehicle, it could beat up infantry pretty good up until heavier tropps and anti-tank tropps, that were they die, and a anti tank (pretty much a light anti tank). in mass numbers they were DEADLY against anything when they outnumbered heavily something.

Mandalor Vipeer · « **Reply #27 on:** December 21, 2008, 09:16 am »

make that 4-0

Argonnath · « **Reply #28 on:** December 21, 2008, 10:10 am »

Mir'ika · « **Reply #29 on:** December 22, 2008, 12:15 am »

Make that 6-0. Fast attack tanks with decent armament are sorely needed. The T2B isn't all that great in a fast attack role. Even in its intended role, that of infantry hunter/killer, it lacks.

Mandalor Vipeer · « **Reply #30 on:** December 22, 2008, 01:07 am »

Mirshe, next time we play EAW I'll teach you how to use them effectively. I promise. But otherwise you are right.

Corusca Fire · « **Reply #31 on:** December 22, 2008, 01:22 am »

T-2B not good in a fast attack role my [censored]! They are practically MADE for fast attack.

Mandalor Vipeer · « **Reply #32 on:** December 22, 2008, 02:59 am »

I agree

Tanus · « **Reply #33 on:** December 22, 2008, 04:03 am »

7-0
