Strengths:
- Sealed Deal: A completely sealed cabin gives the pilot immunity of fire, gas and even the vacuum of space, such a craft able to be deployed on almost any world regardless of atmosphere.
- Customs: With no standard weapon and the ability to put on a wide range of arms such a vehicle can be outfitted in an ideal way for any upcoming battle.
- Stronk: The heavy armor on the crew compartment is able resist almost any hand held arms fire (aside from multiple rockets) allowing troopers to have a small ATAT like walker.
- One Man: The ability to only hold one pilot does have a down side as if said person is knocked out in any sort of way the vheilce is more or less down for the count until someone new can take control.
- Big Boys: Though quite armored and intended for front line assaults the TCW2 is not on bar with actual heavy tanks. A well placed anti tank round into it's legs will take it down just as easily as the TCW1, only that the pilots has a much higher chance to stay alive.
History
With the TCW1 being produce a counter part to the open top scout walker was put into the works. Tythish manufacturing doctrine dictating that the two should have as much in common as possible as part of standardization. This type of doctrine lead to the current model more or less being copied with the added protection of a fully sealed and pressurized cockpit layered in thicker armor. This gives the walker a kind of bulky yet look, though that should not make anyone underestimate it as aside from a lower speed the walker is just as practical as it's twin.
Primary Function
The TCW2 is a front line assault and main battle walker, packing armor and fire power between that of your standard two legged scout walkers and the more front line 4-6 legged ones. It's small size when compared to other heavily armored walkers give it decent performance in urban areas along with more rural battlefields.It's main problem is though armored around the cabin it's legs are still the same as they are on the TCW1, meaning the a well places anti-armor round or mines can cripples such a walker, even if the pilot is unharmed.
