Strengths:
- Strong Armor: Despite having a similar role to the clone wars ... the TCW1 is more then capable of standing up in front line combat, it's armor plating being slightly stronger then a AT-ST.
- Power or Passion: The use of either Anti-tank weapon or anti-infantry weapon allows the TCW1 to tackle most combat situation it may find itself in, it's decent speed and maneuverability helping in this regard.
- Open Top: To for fill it's secondary role in scouting and recon the TCW1 is not enclosed meaning the driver can be hit in the face by a good enough marksman.
- One Driver: Due to it only have one operator if this person falls in combat the entire machine is more or less immobile effectively disabling it without needing any dedicated anti-tank equipment.
History
The design and production of the TCW1 was nothing really special, the walker being made to fill the role of a scout walker and support craft that could do the same work as an ATST and ATRT. The over all size weight and shape being somewhere between the two. Like the ATRT sports only one type of weapon, though like the ATST this weaponry can be varied and is capable of taking on armored vehicles.
Primary Function
The TCW1 is your run of the mill support two legged walker sported by almost every other military in the galaxy, it can be used for frontal assaults, defense and patrolling able to fill in said roles with little draw backs. It's only real flaws as the open top and the 90o traverse that does not allow it to look behind without moving its entire body.
