Imperial Walker: Star Wars Legion Tactics

By Barclay Montgomery | April 24th, 2019 | Categories: Star Wars Legion, Star Wars Tactics

AT-ST

The AT-ST is stomping to the beat of the Imperial March, are there are no signs of slowing it down. Get ready for an arsenal on legs with this walker!

The AT-ST is a formidable opponent for the Rebels in Legion. This vehicle is the largest yet to grace the battlefields of Legion, and it has a wide range of upgrade options. Being equipped with the Arsenal 2 rule allows it to fire up to 2 of its weapons systems while it is attacking, splitting fire between two targets or focusing down on a key unit.

AT-ST

For all of its strengths, it does have one weakness: its rear armor. If the enemy leader is in the rear firing arc of the AT-ST while it is defending, the attack gains Impact 1. Be careful to not get flanked!88 Twin Light Blaster Cannon

To start off on the AT-ST arsenal, equip a 88 Twin Light Blaster Cannon. Much like the base MS-4 Twin Blaster Cannon, this weapon must be fired in a Fixed Front position and can attack with 1 red, 1 black, and 1 white die at range 1-3. Combined with an attack from the  MS-4 Twin Blaster Cannon, this can be devastating to a unit caught in its crosshairs. But we are doubling down on weapon upgrades!

DW-3 Concussion Grenade Launcher

The DW-3 Concussion Grenade Launcher can target closer units and can ignore cover with its Blast rule. This weapon is also Fixed Front and attacks with 2 black dice at range 1-2. Keep this handy for close encounters!

General Weiss

To really get the maximum effectiveness from this weapons platform, assign General Weiss to your AT-ST. This allows the AT-ST to gain an additional Arsenal 2 rule, combining with its ow to get a massive Arsenal 4! This will allows you to unload every weapon equipped to this walker, just in time to crush the Rebellion!
