Spamming smilies = overloading the forum with emoticons (e.g. what your do).
BTW, hows bout the ARC-170 with a butt-gun as a second position, like in the CW cartoon series? Just an idea..

Good idea about the ARC-170 with the tail gun. Two positions only though because don't want too many clones taken out of conquest or too many points for one kill in dogfight. Dogfight has all stock planes + geofighter + Jedistarfighter anyway, so don't be too worried if one or the other doesn't get in.
BTW trying to board the CIS ship in conquest pointless. Trying to land at either the asteroid or the ship in Dogfight is possible, but only if you can dodge the short range turrets/SAM sites.

Yeah looks like I'm the only one who chose it

I don't really like the ARC-170s and I've seen enough LAATs, plus I like the way the Vwing looks. Oh well

I'm ok with any fighter really

Yeah, we haven't seen enough Space maps with a V-19 Fighter.

Good idea about the V-19, but only for dogfight as its too big to fit into the hangars (they're polis massa ones) and the aircraft in them need to have take off height at practically nothing (which won't work for V-19 because of the way the top wing swings around.

You know what would be cool? Its an idea Ive had for a long time, but never tried. Turn the hangar so the exit is at the top, and make a hoth tunnel to the surface for walking and to fly out, makethe lift off height huge, so its like a personal hangar.

Interesting Grev...I've had that exact same idea before. It's getting used, but not in quite the way you think....Mwahahahaha....
Update: Here's the sniper, clone assassin and clone trooper units from CW Conquest.

I have a good feeling about that!
Skyhammer_216 That Troopers looks good!
When comes the beta?
P.S. V-19 Torrents, these things would be better in any instance

nice
maybe you could replace the current "groundtexture" with a higherresoluted one
and that cloneassassin looks not so good
you could ask pinguin to give you a newer version

No. I have no modelling skills whatsoever, don't want a lousy looking reskinned Y-Wing as one and really don't want to spend a whole lot of time making something that looks basically like one of the old ships anyway.

No they wouldn't, I already explained why. >

Off-topic:
@ Darth Revan:
Two answers:
Star Wars Answer: they were phased out like the V-19s.
Real world Answer: the shows designers decided to put them in due to (a) lack of imagination and/or (b) wanting to appeal to those who'd seen the original trilogy/liked it more. Or to give a sense of continuity and connection with the original trilogy.
Back On topic- Unit update. Below are shown the droid scout (the bd in background is pilot droid), an assault droid getting blasted by two blaze troopers at once (and miraculously not dying).

Looking good! I like the new projectiles! Also, about the V-19, could you put the Jedi Starfighter, Ep. 2 version in it?? 'Cause I am not a big fan of the V-19s.
Oh gosh, that's a toughy I wish I could choose both ARC-170 and LAAT! Why not put both of 'em in?
