Reference Book: Star Wars Saga Edition Clone Wars Campaign Guide
Too heavy to be deployed via LAAT/c Gunships, the ponderous Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery, or SPHA, must be delivered to the ground directly from Acclamator-Class Assault Ships. Although among the slowest Vehicles in the Grand Army's arsenal, the SPHA is also the most formidable, mounting a heavy starship-scale weapon capable of bringing down Capital Ships (Provided they are still in the atmosphere) or leveling entire cities.
Defended from infantry assault by a dozen heavy repeating blaster cannons, the SPHA also includes a troop compartment that can hold three full squads of Clone Troopers. Fortunately, the range of the SPHA's primary weapon usually means that it is far enough away from the main battlefield that attacks by ground troops rarely present a problem.
The designation of SPHA is based on its primary gun: SPHA-T (Turbolaser); SPHA-I (Ion Cannon); SPHA-V (Antivehicle Heavy Laser); SPHA-C (Concussion Missile Launcher); or SPHA-M (Mass-Driver Cannon).
