All Terrain Advance Raider

The All Terrain Advance Raider is a bipedal walker used by the Empire, more suitable for frontline combat than other similar walkers such as the AT-ST. It´s "head" is situated closer to it´s legs, giving it a more "hunchbacked" look, and it is armed with a single, large cannon. The view out the cockpit is also more extensive than on the AT-ST, and somewhat similar to the AT-PT.

''This walker was originally developed for The Empire Strikes Back, but it´s design was altered to become the AT-ST. It was later used in an issue of the Marvel Star Wars comic, with some slight alterations to it´s appearance. The Inside The Worlds of the Original Trilogy factbook stated that walker-units of this kind were stationed at the Imperial Garrison in Mos Eisley and others participated in the Battle of Hoth.''
