Blackholeskipper Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Hey, I realize this has been brought up before in the suggestion box but now that there's a cartel market.... wouldn't the Basilisk war droid make an excellent mount for the CM? I'm guessing any fan of mandalorians out there would grab it in a heartbeat! Anyway, this is what I'm talking about: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Basilisk_war_droid It's been in the EU for a while and is mentioned in KOTOR I and appears in KOTOR II (though it looks very different). It also appears in the comics. Here you can see Mandalore the Indomitable leading his warrios from Dxun during the Sith Wars atop a Basilisk war droid (from the The Essential Atlas, that makes it legit right ): http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090903052738/starwars/images/c/c5/Mandalorians_-_TEA.jpg. Besides, they look awesome: http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121026095061/starwars/images/e/e9/BasiliskAssault.jpg (The image links are from wookieepedia). I guess the lasers aren't a nescessity but they could be fun, sort of like the racial skill for cyborgs. It's a bit class specific (bounty hunter) but for the sheer amount of 'pull' it has, I think it's worth it! The size might also be a problem but I don't think it needs to be that big. Maybe the same size as one of those Cartel skiffs. Edited March 19, 2013 by Blackholeskipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterraaze Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 That would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackholeskipper Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) That would be awesome. Hell yea! Too bad there doesn't seem to be that much support in CM forum, maybe I should give it a try in general discussion or the BH forum...

BrianDavion Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 it's a great diea but I'd rather BW wait until we get flying mounts so they can do it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterraaze Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Hell yea! Too bad there doesn't seem to be that much support in CM forum, maybe I should give it a try in general discussion or the BH forum... Too bad indeed. I would really like to see this added, I pretty much made my PT as close to a Mandalorian as you can in this game, and this would really help that. It would be crazy expensive though (look at the Pod Racer). It would be well worth it though. I'm a little surprised I didn't think of this earlier, being a fan of the CW show, and in general, being a huge Mandalorian fan. So once again, I support this.

Blackholeskipper Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Yea, I also like my bounty hunter to look and feel Mandalorian. There doesn't seem to be any suitable armor until lvl 40+! Anyway, I don't think flying mounts are coming any time soon (it'll take another year at least, they still need to add chat bubbles, ship deco, hood toggle, guild ships, etc, not till another expansion anyway) so a speeder version will be fine. Maybe add a few idle animations to make it feel alive. But I guess it's wait and see from here. (But maybe not, the CM seems to be the focus right now so it's still possible ) Edited March 20, 2013 by Blackholeskipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
