Re: The two legged walking power armors

Actually, the 2-legged ones are AT-STs. AT-ATs are the 4-legged ones. Geez, goufunaki. Worst. Star wars help. Ever. Let me guess, you probably think Tatooine has four moons, too. Hahahaha. What a nerd.

Thanks, but I was wrong, he did mean the two legged ones where they just jump on.

Re: The two legged walking power armors

AT-AT : All Terrain Armored Transport

AT-ST : All Terrain Scout Transport

And all it takes is a few ropes and some Ewoks to take them down.

Re: The two legged walking power armors

And logs...you can't forget about logs. The best AT-ST takedowns were when they rolled all the logs under its "feet," and it couldn't balance and fell over, and the one where it was walking through a clearing, and the two Ewoks cut those ropes to release those swinging logs, which smashed the "head" of that AT-ST.


And for the next movie, the best George Lucas could come up with was podracing.

lets hope the usa doesnt bring those to the next arab state they make war on, cause thats one resource they actually have. you know, ropes, not ewoks.

Re: The two legged walking power armors

I never understood the logic behind "walking" transports...

can someone enlighten me please on how those could possibly be more effective?

Re: The two legged walking power armors

The legs allow the AT-ATs to access places that wheels would not allow them to reach, for instance when they have to walk up a flight of stairs to kill the republic's soldiers in the kitchen.
