specialty: AT-AT armor - the AT-AT is completely impervious to taking structural damage from weapons below size four. instead, it can only take component damage.

^ this inspires enemy players to *improvise* something to do with speeders and tow cables. also, i'd tell you to make the armor 4d10.

Specialty: AT-AT speed - the AT-AT is a lumbering behemoth, and thus can only turn up to 45 degrees per turn.

Could a minifig go inside and plant an exlplosive?

That seemed to destroy it fairly easily in the movie, could it be done in BrikWars?

I have so many ideas about how one could be taken down, if the armor is 4d10.

Just shoot out a leg. It's easier and doesn't require massive amounts of firepower.

What the heck, you can't be that lazy.

If you are using a Snowspeeder with a tow cable, to fire the cable:
UR:5
RANGE: 6"

If you hit one leg of the AT-AT, you need to make 2 turns around it. Then, the monster will fall, and cannot bet up on his own. Then, you can use every weapon you want normally without restrictions. Why, if you didn't do anything to "disrupt" any shields? Because you broke something inside.

Ok. Simple.

It can still shoot when it's on the ground if the head isn't hit, it effectively becomes a huge siege weapon.

My idea was combining rocket attacks on the neck, so the head falls off and everything is over with.

In Star Wars: Battlefront II, I believe the neck is the Critical Hit area on the AT-AT. I believe there is cannon evidance as well that indicates the neck is the most vulnerable place on the walker.

if you bring one down, it merely becomes a bunker.

someone mentions it in empire strikes back.

as for explosives inside, remember how components of brikwars vehicles are treated in brikwars! the 4d10 applies to attacking the whole damn vehicle with sporadic laser fire, hoping to blunt force it into submission. doing damage to less armored areas (usually things like doors and under-chassis/interior armor) will be considered one structure level lower than the rest of the vehicle. damaging something SUPER critical (all joints, computer parts, weapon mounts etc.) are considered two structure levels below.

in this case, hitting an AT-AT directly in the leg (not on a joint), or cutting open bottom armor would be dealt with at 3d10 armor. once inside, engines and cockpit parts would have only 2d10 armor, as would all the AT-AT's joints, including knees and neck.

But it can only shoot in one direction. Then you could just move everything out of the way and... Well, it'll be safe.

On the other hand, I have an idea. If an AT-AT fall over, it automaticly spawns X troops.

Why spawn troops? I think everybody but maybe the head would be dead inside.

I'm pretty sure they have some shock absorbers in there.

In Empire Strikes Back, when an AT-AT falls over, it doesn't spawn troops, it explodes, with about a 3 second delay. That sounds like a much more Brikwarsish rule to me.
