LAAT - you man the cannon of a self-navigating vehicle and fire barrages at the chosen area of the fighting

A cheap air unit. Renting it gives you 1.5 minute of barrage - every killed opponent lengthens your tenure as the pilot. Warning - the vehicle can be easily brought down from the sky by enemy planes, so its use may be problematic when you are without air support. The artillery units can utilize following abilities:

  1. Repair - Repairs the unit (the vehicle will start repairing itself after a few seconds without taking damage).
  2. Missile Guidance Disruptor - Disrupts the guided missiles from air opponents.
  3. Heat Sink - Your weapon doesn't overheat (you can fire a longer laser barrage).

  2. Refresh - Nearby allies refresh their abilities.
  3. Orbital Strike - Point the red circle to a chosen target. The strike is performed with a small delay.

MTT appears in two maps in Galactic Assault mode. Similarly to AT-AT, the machines are strictly connected to the mission objectives, and will be exposed to enemy fire. You can rent it for a minute (each kill adds additional 10 seconds to the counter) to fire at targets in front of you (you're limited by the range of the gun) and support your allies by scanning nearby opponents and cool-down allies' weapons.
