Classic SWG: Dangerous Toys


Keep your distance. But don't look like you're keeping your distance.

Whether in the hands of an Imperial player, or located at a mission waypoint from a Rebel terminal, an AT-ST was a sight to behold, and a foe to fear. The intelligent Rebel agent would soon know which missions to choose in order to avoid these instant trips to the cloner.

The AT-STs could be taken down easily by a large group, but one-on-one (or even one-on-two, as the case is in the picture above), there was little chance of success.

Here, we see Vincer and his companion Amber coming across an AT-ST in the wild. Vincer got close enough to take this image for his superior officers, but not so close that the picture would be shipped to his commander along with his other personal effects. In a small box.

The Empire should redeploy these war machines about the galaxy, and in greater numbers. It may spell doom for many of the careless Rebels, but those of us who take more pride in the term "Alliance" then to "Rebellion" will enjoy finding ways to turn these powerful vehicles and the drivers into scrap.
