Move?

Should we move this to the vehicle's technical name, the "TIE ap-1?" JimRaynor55 09:00, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

  • The other TIE series vehicles and vessels use the more common names rather than the technical ones - Kwenn 10:36, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Does "ap" stand for "anti-personnel"? Because the OS article didn't say. =/
I also don't understand why the "non-technical" names are used for titles for the TIE series, doesn't quite gel with the rest, really. Hell, if we want to be different, we should stretch out the title and write "Twin Ion Engine". After all these years it's easy to forget the name's been an acronym all along.

      • They should be all at the most "accurate" and "technical" name. QuentinGeorge 10:58, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
  • I agree. Admiral J. Nebulax 21:01, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
        • Does that mean we stretch out TIE? VT-16 11:38, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
        • I wouldn't go that far. --MarcK [talk] 11:41, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Hmm, then TIE Fighter should be TIE/In, or Twin Ion Engine/In, or something, and the same for the rest of the TIEs. I think they should be most techninal, but let's see what the rest say. Should this debate go to the Senate Hall? -Aiddat
    • Well, we already have most of the TIEs with designations like TIE/ln starfighter (TIE Fighter) and TIE/I starfighter (TIE Interceptor) at their proper articles now. I say leave it like this. I don't think we should go to the Senate Hall. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) Imperial Emblem 11:18, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

True TIEs?

Do Maulers really have Twin Ion Engines? I think they do have ion engines of some sort, because EaW mentions overcharging them to self-destruct. But is any more info available? It also seems that the power of the engines goes to the treads instead of a thrust engine in the back. — Aiddat (Holonet) (Contribs Log) NR Seal 12:44, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Manufacturer

I thought Sienar Army Systems was only created closer to Dark Empire times. The Prima Guide simply says Santhe/Sienar Technologies for manufacturerJustinGann 23:12, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Heavy cavalry?

Is the Mauler seriously considered 'heavy cavalry'? Most heavy cav units have heavy armor and weapons systems designed to destroy other vehicles, not tinfoil and peashooters.

They're light tanks, and ar'nt armed with peashooters. Darth Oompa Loompa 18:36, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

TIE Mauler Pilot

In the main picture of the mauler, you can clearly see a stormtrooper impression in the centre window. Should we add the fact that this was piloted by a stormie?--Governor Jerjerrod 17:10, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
