Juggernaut (Rebel Alliance)

Juggernauts were ten-wheeled tanks used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. Equipped with a lethal top-mounted laser cannon, they were highly durable and could punch through strong defenses, including shield generators. However, Juggernauts were slow and vulnerable to rocket turrets and massed heavy infantry.

Chris Menezes, a developer on Star Wars: Commander, revealed that inspiration for the Juggernaut's design in the mobile video game was from the HAVw A5 Juggernaut, and then continuing to work with the Lucasfilm Story Group. Ideas for the vehicle's development were how the Juggernaut would come across from the Clone Wars to the Imperial Era and Galactic Civil War. The design was then provided to a concept artist who provided the final design, albeit without the weaponry. The design was then presented to the Story Group, who provided discussion on the type of weaponry the Rebel Alliance would use.
