AT-EA
The All Terrain Expeditonary Artillery was a concept pioneered by the geeks at Rothanda who thought that I'd be pretty nifty to have a moblie artillery walker. The cannon, a Blastech ICAS-3 (Inter-changable Artillery System) can be outfitted with anti-aircraft, armor piercing, LRHE (Long Range High Explosive), or HEFM (High Explosive Fragmentation) rounds, for a variety of roles. The commanders of the extremely mobile 541st Leigion thought this pretty nifty too, and put in a request for the walkers.
When the AT-EA first saw action in the Arkanian Theater, the commanders quickly saw that they didn't live up to expectations. If the gunner was moutned on the gun in combat, he was exposed to enemy fire and didn't last long. It had about the speed of the AT-RT, and roughly the same firepower.
It wasn't a artillery walker. But rather nothing more than a heavily armored artillery skiff.
After this realization, the Tusk Cat became a Nerf, and therefore would be placed in the vanguard of armor columns for air support, or be used to quickly bring arty to the front.
Side, gun deployed.
Front, gun undeployed.

Doh! Should have gotten a inside shot of the bugger before I scrapped it for my next MOC....
Re: AT-EA
I don't like the color scheme, or how the top looks to heavy for the legs. But over all, I like it! Good job!Sialboats wrote:commander crusher wrote:Cool I can see there is a gunner. Is there a pilot? Nice job.

I think the color scheme is great.
Re: AT-EA
That's pretty cool, I love the overall look.
