How Star Wars’ “Imperial Walkers” actually work

  • This isn't how all terrain armored transports work, in empire or episode 5, they used miniature models and made them walk using stop motion, in the real star wars galaxy, the walkers are powered walking machines and the head is where the pilots and occasionally the general or admiral who's leading the invasion sit/stand within. The main body is 3 rooms and 2 stories where troops are carried. There is another variant called the all terrain armored cargo transport (AT-ACT) that carries cargo instead.
    This is probably a joke but as a star wars nerd I still have to ensure that people who don't know don't actually think that's how they work.
