DESCRIPTION:
The Liberty-Class Troop Transport Assault Walker (LC-TTAW) is a heavy transport vessel commissioned by the Republic Military to safely ferry troops into battle. AlderaanMotors worked tirelessly on the design, making certain that the vehicle's legs would be able to handle all terrains. Furthermore, since the legs have been a point of vulnerability to previous walker designs, the design teams made sure to augment the durability of the legs with additional armor consisting of duraplast plating.
 
First problem; the walker has too much going on for armaments. To power all its weapons and defensive systems, this thing would be all powerplant. Which would then bring into question where this walker is supposed to fit the 40 passengers. The ideology behind "Transport" and "Assault" are pretty disparate. Narrow its focus.

Next, if you're going to try and armor a sensitive area, like the legs, that's going to adversely affect its speed and mobility.

I just can't see how this walker is supposed to have the weapon suite it has, a deflector shield, highly armored legs, move as fast as it does, and carry 40 troops into battle.
