A troop-transport version of the Imperial Chariot Light Assault/Command Vehicle originally from Heir to the Empire.
About this creation
In Heir to the Empire, a small Imperial command speeder was introduced, the Chariot LACV, or Light Assault/Command Vehicle. The Chariot would generally have a crew of about four and no troop capacity; I've created a speeder transport inspired by the Chariot but with room for up to six stormtroopers and two crew.

Backstory:
10 years after the Battle of Endor, as the Empire fell into shambles, most AT-ATs had either been destroyed in Imperial infighting or captured by the New Republic and various private interests that used them for mining operations. The segmented remnants of the Empire rarely had the resources to manufacture new AT-ATs in significant numbers, so many Imperial landspeeder factories were contracted to build the Chariot II LAV, a speeder-sized transport based on the Chariot command vehicle. The new craft proved economical and served in large numbers among Imperial garissons.
