Talk:T-47 airspeeder/Legends

Article Name
Should this article be moved to "T-47 Airspeeder"? That's the official name for this vehicle. Snowspeeders are only one of the several variants. JimRaynor55 01:04, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * This article seems to be just about the Snowspeeder, which would not have been know as T-47 Snowspeeder, as all the modifications were aftermarket. Not sure what a better title would be, but certainly "T-47 Airspeeder" deserves it's own article on the standard speeder. I know both WEG and WOTC have a decent amount of info published on the stock type. --SparqMan 02:54, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * This article really should be moved to T-47 airspeeder, because the term "snowspeeder" was a slang term for it used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the "airspeeder" term is the correct name. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 23:01, 17 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Agree.-LtNOWIS 00:54, 18 Sep 2005 (UTC)


 * Finally, it's been moved. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 23:19, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Technically this article should be called 'Modified T-47 airspeeder'. The Rebels modified the T-47 airspeeders into snowspeeders.  I beleive the NEGVV says they added the blasers and other major changes. -Fnlayson 21:48, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * There's really no need for such a move. We simply add sections for the modified T-47 designs. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 15:16, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * That's fair enough. But I didn't mean move it.  -Fnlayson 15:23, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I just assumed that when you said "Technically this article should be called 'Modified T-47 airspeeder'". Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 15:24, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Technically was in there for a reason.. -Fnlayson 15:27, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Still, I think I used "technically" when asking for an article to be moved. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 15:28, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Markings
Any possibility of getting an update simply on the markings for the snowspeeder? I noticed some are grey, some are red, etc. Perhaps an indication regarding their significance, if any, and which pilots had what.
 * Where do they have markings? Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:40, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The grey or red stripes on the back, the grey stripe down the front, the "zz" by the copilot. I didn't know if these had significance at all, especially the color choices. I was thinking of the stripes on X-Wings that identify the pilot (Red 5, Red 2, etc), and wanted to see if anyone knew if the Speeders had similar markings.
 * I'm pretty sure they're all the same. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:25, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, just checking, since there's at least two different kinds. The grey ones and the orangish/red.
 * Pictures would be helpful. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 01:16, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I noticed this first with the toys, but if you look at the primary picture on the entry here, it has the grey markings. Scroll down, and there's an artist's rendering of the snowspeeder with the orange/red ones. Not adept enough to post pictures on here, or familiar enough with wookiepedia to know the rules yet.
 * Ah, I see. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:49, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

"Used to great effect by the Rebel forces"
I'm thinking this line should be taken out? If anything I'd have to say that Empire Strikes Back shows the Snowspeeders getting annihilated by the AT-AT's as opposed to the other way around. I guess you could say that dozens of AT-AT's were getting destroyed off-screen, but I don't think that's quite what the movie intended - lalala_la
 * Let's not forget that the movie wasn't their only appearance. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 14:38, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I was going to say something about how video games seem to exaggerate.....ahhh never mind - lalala_la
 * They do, but as much as I hate to say this, we can't completely disregard them. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 15:14, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
