 | | 01/31/2006 4:44 PM |  Alert | SWM Huges (or Larges?):
1) Snowspeeder (Huge)
2) Hoth Gun Tower (Huge or Large??)
3) Desert Skiff (Huge??)
4) E-Web Blaster (Probably Large)
5) EU Critter with Rider???
6) What else do we know or suspect??
As best I understand, we will be getting 10 new SWM Huges in the up-comming Bounty Hunters set.
I guess the only one we know for sure is the Snowspeeder....
What else is left from the RPG rules????
I would like to see an Ion-Gun Tower (As seen on Hoth),
The Ubrikkian Cargo Skiff is listed as Huge in RPG RB (pg 201). That could be useful but not in skirmish....
What else could these Huge's be???? | |
Cheers !!

| | 01/31/2006 6:51 PM | Alert | | I'm not sure if they are going to add stationary figures Thor. My guess is we are going to see a fair amount of EU stuff huge wise. We may also see some recycled characters/vehicles, like Luke Skywalker in a Landspeeder or Chewbacca in a AT-ST. | |

| | 01/31/2006 7:08 PM | Alert | Yea, A stationary mini is kinda lame, but could be done.
You have any EU stuff in mind????
The Landspeeder is only a large. (and unarmed.....) frown...
Chewie in AT-ST would be silly IMHO. I can easily add a sawed in half wookie to my normal AT-ST. How often would this be used??
I would think it would be a poor mini for skirmish as well.... | |

Sarlacc; i see it as a terrain feature, but if a huge is done could move really slow and have melee reach 3 or even 4, i don´t want a stationary mini. Actually sarlacc could be gargantuan.
Ewok Glider; would be Large if it comes someday.
Jawa over rontho; what war use it could have? very possible in lack of ideas.
dagobah creatures; they are not very famous and popular...
Actually a Famba Shield Carrier could be very useful giving shields 10 to each miniature withing 6 square to ranged attacks. | |

| | 02/06/2006 2:17 AM | Alert | | The Sarlacc map could be pretty awsome actually. You could even have some of the dunes count as difficult terrain with some rocks as blocking terrain. It could be a very feasible outdoor map. | |

I already have AAT's, so I have no need for them anymoe [:)]
I think Gunship would be larger than huge, AT-PT is large.
A rebel tank would be really great... Rebels would deserve more than one huge! Hoth turret would be great too.
We need another speeder, maybe just a regular speeder (à la Luke's speeder) with transport/protective ability.
I'm waiting to see a Separatist Tank droid. ROTS is the latest movie and it will see attention... Did wookies/republic/others have any other notable huges in that movie?
And there will surely have to be some kind of beasts. Maybe EU this time. Hm, what were those force -immune beasts in KOTOR? Or maybe Dxun (?) beast with flyer. Or, another rancor, with warsuit or maybe with a Witch rider, or Palpatine's altered ones?
Edit: New thoughts... New republic and Yuuzan don't have any huges yet, nor the Sith or Old republic. Some of those might get representation. Or, some ancient tech anyway. And, there was a camel-like creature in Tatooine that could get done. | |

The Big one is the Ronto! but is pretty useless in combat.
I think that if BARC speeder is a huge AT-PT should be a Huge, but could come as large (leaving more space for more huges)
The gunship is a big HUGE but stay in the huge size, maybe a little bigger that a Viper Droid.
Appart from the AAT Tank we also need to see the Separastist Tank Droid.
Rebels and new republic need some huges for sure. | |
