Can you do a video about umbaran species if you have the time
As a world of tanks player all I can say is. DO NOT PLAY WORLD OF TANKS. Lol it is a pointless grind and will drain your wallet. Lol
@@warhawk4494 Have to agree with you there. World of Warships is better, IMHO.
Prefer Abrams tank 😅
@@TheOneTrueDragonKing it isn't to bad at all.
The grind what gets me with WoWS. Lol
Star Wars armored vehicle manufacturers try to design an enclosed turret challenge: IMPOSSIBLE DIFFICULTY
Dammit I love this comment
Yet enclosed turrets on starships are the norm. That little thing has always bothered me.
The AAT has an enclosed turret, so why wouldn’t any vehicle meant to counter it have one?
To be fair the at-te,at-ot and some other republic vehicles were probably used even before the Clone Wars broke out so when the war began, the republic didn’t have time to upgrade them so they used whatever they had available and palpatine probably did’t want to be to powerful.
What about the AT-AT, AT-ST, and compact assault vehicle?
(Funny comment btw)
Star Wars media needs to showcase the tanks more often
I remember playing with this tank in the 2002 Clone Wars game, & the original Battlefront I & Battlefront II games. I’m glad this was brought back into canon for EA’s Battlefront II. Techincally this first appeared in the Boba Fett novel Crossfire before the Clone Wars game.
Yes the game in Xbox
Star wars the clone wars
Also these units make me wonder why the empire went freakin low end with atst walker's and at ats
@@fargeeks it was also on PS2 and GameCube I played the GameCube version of the Clone Wars.
It was in revenge of the sith in one of the bridge scenes one of them was blown up by a tri Droid
@@paladin773 different hovertank
This and ATTE are my favorite vehicles from the CW era.
The Saber tank. I remember this legend carrying me in both Battlefront games from the early 2000s and the successor in the 2M Repulsor Tank from EAW. Absolutely legendary! Can't help but love this amazing fighter tank.
Same. It carried me plenty whenever I had to do last stands in Battlefront 2, either by stealing one from the enemy or getting lucky by grabbing one before the command post it spawned at gets captured.
Safe to say I have many, MANY memories of using it. Makes sense, as I'm very convinced it was the best tank in the game, by far.
Have you played the empire at war clone wars mod? It's really extensive
Rothana Heavy Engineering: "Have you ever seen a Tank with a Nitrous Boost?"
"Would You Like TO?"
I still have Star Wars the clone wars 2002 game and loved the fighter tanks as I always thought it was a perfect blend between a tank/walker and a speeder bike. It truly was a one man multi role vehicle. Both this one and the one the CIS had in the game. Wish we could've seen it in the tv shows.
Until this video, I always hated having to use this tank in EAs BF2, but now I know it’s because I’ve been using it as a heavy tank like the AAT. While granted it doesn’t have the same boost feature, it makes so much more sense knowing it’s better used as a more agile armored artillery unit. It wasn’t as bad as I thought, I was just using it wrong this whole time lol
Yes, my favorite tank from Classic Battlefront 2! Safe to say, I love this thing to bits.
The story of Hell's Hammers from the EU are a beloved one for me. The Imperial repulsor tank line were really good designs.
When you were on the scout bike or staap I think if you got close to a wall or barrier you’d clip into the 2D/3D character model you were controlling, the inside of master Kenobis head still haunts me to today.
I personally like the idea of the TX-130t variant being used to push up into a hectic battlefield and drop off a 4 man clone commando team deep in enemy territory. Or use 2 of them to drop off a 10 man ARC trooper squad too
You inadvertently brought to light evidence of the rivalry between the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Army. For defense of the Death Star they used surplus TX-130s because the Imperial Army would not give up any of their walkers
Honestly like the saber for a main vehicle over any walkers, the saber is super versatile and has some great mobility, of course the empire only upgraded it from there which makes it even cooler👌🏻
I wish we could have got these in the clone wars.. one of the best most practical vehicles.
Love the saber tank from the battlefront games (old and new). And I am so glad you mentioned the imperial S1 firehawk heavy repulsortank. This is my favorite tank for the empire. Its fast, has heavy armor, and has a very accurate main gun that could easily shoot down airspeeders and low-flying starfighters, plus it had a range of 5km. Also had a medium blaster cannon with a 1km range in a secondary turret.
Loved the video, look forward to more!
Wish they used this tank in the Clone Wars show. Was a missed opportunity
Just like the Victory class
That ending line has gotta be one of the best in the history of your channel, kudos for that one
Without an Abso-fraking-lute doubt that the TX-130 is one of my Most Absolute favorite Tanks in the Star Wars Universe!!!!!
Definitely enjoyed playing the Republic Fighter Tank in The Clone Wars game on my Original Xbox console
Definitely glad it made an appearance in recent Battlefront 2 game
I just wanted to say that it was Luminara with Mace Windu on Geonosis, not Aayla Secura.
Jeez that's crazy idk why I said Aayla, I have Luminara in the script and u see her running over
I wish it showed up in more media
I remember in the OG battlefront1 the clone trooper variant launched its missiles separately and the imperial version fired them both in a salvo. Plus they had different laser colors. Good times
this is my favorate hovertank, it is basically how think a hover tank should act like compared to other tank types
The quick and Cool hover tank that is awesome in numbers, and the equal to the Seperatists AAT. Ono of my favorite tanks in sci fi…. Next to the AT-TE of course.
I like the MMT better
That giant hovering tank that deployed massive armies of battle droids
@@fargeeks yeah, that was cool too. Both Republic and CIS vehicles and ships were cool after all.
This and the LAAT/i are some of my favorite vehicles from the CW
Showing the Star Wars Commander gameplay hit me like a truck. Loved that game
Wait 400km range but it cruses at 192km so barely over 2h of operational time if used flat out? i know that they probably wont do flat out for 2h but still that feels realy short range for a fast attack rig.
I was gonna comment this lol
The tx-130 tank is one of my favorite vehicles in star wars love your videos Man they are so cool
Why wasn’t this featured in the Clone Wars show?
Small correction:
The first battle of geonosis tanks were piloted by Mace Windu and Luminara Unduli.
The TX-130 speed is crazy but I’d like to see what an AT-TE galloping at 60kph looks like.
It looks really cursed on a video and completely ridiculous.
@@merafirewing6591 I can't find a video, but good Lord do I feel bad for the crew and passengers that would have to be inside a galloping AT-TE.
I wish people could talk more about more obscure walkers like the AT-OT :/ I swear like the only non-LEGO AT-OT related video is the video on Republic units for the EAW Fall Of The Republic mod
He made a video about the at ot
But it is 5 years old
I agree about missing the old published materials that used to come with games. Some of it was just great stuff to read.
Loved this tank in the Star Wars Commander mobile game
This is hands down the best tank the Republic came up with.
So many Rothona tanks with such tiny horizontal fire arcs, I don’t get it.
Oh jeez I remember first seeing this in the old battlefront 1 and using it to kill the A.I. heros, running them over was one of the only ways to get the kill for them
Never heard of this tank, but wow is it cool and impressive.
Thank you for this channel. I really like learning about the vehicles
Can you do a video on the little known species the Qhuloskian? Idk how much info there is on them, but they look cool and have been in a couple interesting stories! I love your channel and I only found it because I just got into a Star Wars kick and found your channel! Keep up the good work!
Lego made a great one the first time around. I can't say the same for the second and third attempts...
MY ALL TIME FAVORITE STAR WARS SHIP EVER! I love all of its variants, no matter the era or faction
This has to be one of the worst bot comments I've ever seen. It doesn't even try to hide itself.
Either that or they commented on the wrong video. I'm betting it's a bot though.
@@TheFirstCurse1uh. I'm a human? I like the TX-130.
In the words of Orson Krennic: "Oh it's beautiful..."
BRO 🚨
I have an idea for the next video:
- Assasin Droids -
They have little to no information on TH-cam. But they are my personal favourite droids in all Star Wars since my childhood.
They are so mysterious and efficient. Up until the times of the empire.
I would love to see a video on that :)
Greetings!
I have loved this thing ever since the Clone Wars game back on PS2
I wish this beautiful tank would appear in canon like maybe in bad batch being used by imperial clone troopers or tk troopers
I feel like the best replacement for the original turret is either the mentioned astromech for cyberwarfare or swapping out the light blaster with a repeating ion cannon in a bubble turret like on the original Y-wing. Having a turrret up top for antipersonnel is useful generally, ion works just as good or better for antipersonnel when your main enemies are droids, AND then you can have the turret gunner soften up shielded targets more effectively so the main guns can take'em down more quickly.
Omg I was litterally playing that game on the GameCube the other day. Memories man... Game was kinda harder than I remember at times
I like this tank very much, both in the model and in battlefront, only a controllable upper turret inside would be nice
I personally think we could really use a Star Wars game that plays like the World of games. Imagine in a Galaxy of Warships game flying around in a Venator fighting Star Destroyers or Providence ships. Or a tank counterpart where you get to play as a Wookiee missile vehicle fighting against people in Hailfire droids.
Damn, I really miss Star Wars Commander
You somehow found the perfect sponsor for this video
Funny how we never saw this in the clone wars series
Original battle front 2 nostalgia
Next AT TX? A forgotten walker sadly. Loved that clone wars game back in the day, I was waiting it for months when I was a kid lol, reading every official mags having preview on it.
Do you mean at xt?
I really do not understand what was the point of that tracked "tank" in that ambush scene in the city from Rogue One. The dang thing was very low to the ground already and yet they added the main weapons to the sides of the tracks which made it impractical to shoot targets in most if not all environments. Even worse was that the weapon layout was meant for a hover tank which gave it the height and maneuverability to use said weapons but they used it on a tracked vehicle instead.
There is a hover variant of that tank, which we haven't seen used anywhere, but the tank itself is fine, just weird that they wanted a tracked vehicle for the empire though I think an imperial saber tank with an enclosed hover trailed being pulled behind it would have been the best way to do it
Late comment, but I think it is possible, that somebody messed up and showed the tracks that were there to move the setpiece.
This tank is Star Wars' version of the Warthog from Halo, it's small, light, packs a punch and seems to be used everywhere by nearly everyone.
Did this thing ever make it into TCW animated series? I honestly cannot remember ever seeing it.
Yeah it did I think
Just so you know, that was Luminara with Mace, not Aayla.
Been waiting for this one
My favorite tank in star wars
Don’t forget the variant that’s in that Star Wars, clash of clans style mobile game.
Kinda surprised they have no connection to the Hoth Snowspeeders. The body designs are very similar, despit their differing roles.
Always loved the design
Let Do MC75 Star Cruiser Next OK MetalNerds Lore And It Carried 36 Star-fighters
You should really do a breakdown of the star wars "Mining Guild" they seem like an intresting faction. Or maybe a breakdown of the "Corporate Sector Authority" organisation.
great tank for hit and run tactics
Great video, what's the name of the comic from which you got the story of the battle of new plimpto?
Can you make one of these videos on the Theta class? It’s my favourite shuttle and I think it’s the only one you haven’t done a breakdown on yet
I love using this tank in sw legion is powerful but weak side armors but it can move in all directions
Are you redoing a lot of your older episodes? Because I have a lot of your videos on a playlist, and I can’t watch them because they are members only
My fave land vehicle
After using this vehicle to get level 100 for my armour class in BF2 I’m so glad this video is a thing
I'm pretty sure the "prototype" is just a smaller one manned fighter tank variant of the larger two manned version we see in video games
I didn't know the HAV tank was a decent of the TX-130 Fighter Tank. Makes me like the HAV tank all the more!
I love the Imperial Remnant variant, it’s the best.
Awesome 😎
Great vid, as always. I have to wonder if maybe the reason we didn’t see this one in TCW is that its speed didn’t fit the WW1 tactics they tended to use in massed battles?
Perhaps, but they did use that beam tank a lot, and they easily could have used them in place of the beam tank quite a few times
@@calebbarnhouse496 That was slow artillery. It should fit better into the WW1 style tactics
@Stars90 its really not used like artillery, MAYBE you could say it's used like a field gun, but it's still a stretch, ultimately it's used like a tank would be, which as it's a tank it ads up, bit still in a forward assault saber tanks would still offer a lot considering that they are able to reinforce where your lines are weakest or overwhelm a point if your able to accept casualties and use it to collapse lines
@@calebbarnhouse496 Lol, you're not wrong. Though I'm pretty sure those are the same artillery tanks that are just using interchangeable weapons systems. I guess when space superiority is a part of the battlefield it makes sense to have powerful and unwieldy weapons that can only shoot up. But I don't remember ever seeing in TCW a time when the full force hadn't been deployed to the front (mind you, having the Saber tanks would have been VERY helpful at the Second Battle if Geonosis)
@Stars90 it's known as the stun tank, I've never seen any other guns out on it, it could have other options, but the only thing notable on the wookepdia page is that it does resemble the SPHA, which I disagree with, but it could be the linkage, where they are anti shield tank, so it could be there main purpose was to take down city shields with conjunction with ATTEs
I saw in men of war mods that they had a variant of this tank with a turret like the aat had
These are my favorite star wars tanks, its like the scorpion tanks from halo... but is shoots lazers and has cool colors so its better
Nice, are you basically redoing your old videos?
I really want this to appear in actual canon material, not just the Battlefront games, this thing is so cool and underrated
Also pretty cool to know it basically had a "Nitro/Turbo boost"
I think it would make a good star fighter model too
I hope the bad batch brings back the TX-130 some day.I also enjoyed piloting it and fighting droids with all the clones that manned the beam cannon.
I also love the TX-225.
BSing the campaign on BFII 2003 by taking a clone in the turret and driving to the point on the left side of the beach and jumping out while he drove the tank to fight while I capped
The original design looks better than the new design
3:31 but you didn't mention the acclimator carrying these? And the wiki doesnt state anything about venators storing them either?
One of my absolute favorite EU vehicles. Sadly I don’t think it got any cooler than in the ‘02 “Clone Wars” game. I always saw it as a Jedi Starfighter OR Snowspeeder on the ground.
The saber’s great, but the 2-M Repulsor tank imo is the goat in terms of design. It’s everything the Saber is but with a proper tank gun.
I had no idea that tank from rogue one had treads.
You mean Luminara not Secura. It’s all good though man good vid.
world of tanks is indeed a great game; cool video as well
Thule is my favorite planet and I wish Dave Filoni would bring it to the small screen :(
Fond memories of running over enemy NPCs with this beast in the original Battlefront 2
The TX-130 super saber tank is a beast
We need a Star Wars World of Tanks.
Like Squadrons for tanks! That would be so cool!
Can we get a breakdown of nyms ship the Havoc bomber? From star wars star fighters?
I’m suprised they dint use these at the live action movies and tv shows of the clone wars era or mid empire era
