It has basically the same main energy armament as the AT-AT, plus the two missile pods and the anti-infantry turret.

It is really cool and looks like the thing you would on a large city like in rise of sky walker just a better version of the two legged one arm walker

It’s based on a mech/walker used by the empire during the dark empire comics they were used to defend palpatines citadel. And the original in fact looks a lot like the one fractal made above.

He stated in the 1st version (biped walker wip 1 I think) that it is approximately 15m tall

Love it! Looks kinda like an ED-209 and an AT-AT combined.

It needs some huge-ass weapons turrets sticking out of its sides. Then it’d be a giant ED-209.

This reminds me of the walkers defending the emperor’s citadel in the Dark Empire series on Byss.

Is this walker more powerful than the AT-AT?

Well it’s significantly smaller

Compact is probably a more apt word; much of the AT-ATs interior is designed for troop transport. The AT-SW has effectively the same cannon armament as an AT-AT, plus missile launchers and an anti-personnel chin turret. It’s not outside the realm of possibility that the AT-SW hits harder than an AT-AT while being faster and more maneuverable.

Congratulations, you’ve rendered the AT-ST obsolete! This thing is much scarier.

Hello there, I really enjoyed the look of this thing, so much so that I created something very similar to it in the physics-based engineering/sandbox game “Space Engineers.” Thank you for making such a nice model to work from.

Please say that is a replaceable rocket cassette (or whats its name) where the old one is removed and new cassette with pre-loaded missiles is installed.
I just love good design.

Also, the light weapons pod reminds me of Vulture/Mad Dog from Battletech. Too small though, look badly underpowered.
The big guns are a bit too wide, seem like this is still scrap metal against snowspeeders.

Lastly, if I would be driving this, I would like to see some extra protection for the vulnerable joints and underside. Maybe a skirt armor of somekind?
The worst nightmare for this thing is a hidden infantryman with cool nerves and an AT rocket launcher.

Still all in all, it looks magnificent and Empire designs are supposed to be all teeth and size and no rounded capabilities. And this sure looks very menacing.

Are you familiar with Keith Laumer´s (and others especially D. Weber) Bolo stories? And would you be thinking about making render (mark XX+)?

For me Bolos represent the pinnacle of (Sci-Fi) tank technology.

I always thought that the T-47 Snowspeeder had about half the armament of the T-65 X-Wing (Otherwise the Rebels would have just demolished the Walkers with 1 or 2 X-Wings) And that the AT-ACT had less durability compared to the AT-AT. It seemed like the IF9 Dish Cannons could fire a Full power round capable of Obliterating most Imperial Ground Vehicles (Which is what made the AT-AT’s Armor so impressive)

I dunno, I’ve never really considered the walkers in Star Wars to be mecha so much as tanks with legs. They’re just kinda their own thing, and they don’t really seem to fit my definition of a Mecha. That’s just me, though.
