Description:

The AT-FAT (Affectionately referred to as 'Atfat' or just 'the Fats') is a two-legged, fast, agile walker intended for the use of Evard's personal tank squad. It has a couple rifle-caliber guns to pick off enemy troops, and a much larger gun, as well as a rocket launcher, to take on other vehicles, as well as fortifications. An AI-controlled HUD tells the pilot when ammo is low, they're being fired at, and picks out targets of importance.

It there's a bit of territory that even the walker can't get through, it will activate a repulsorlift that will take it over the obstacle, before deactivating and reactivating the legs. It only works for a couple of minutes at a time, though, so it's really not a reliable form of combat propulsion.

You mentioned different caliber weapons? What are they and their ranges? Effective and Max.

I also don't see why it has to fold. Why don't you just include them with repulsor that allow short bursts to get from one place to another. I wouldn't see an ATST head hovering around like a hover tank and wouldn't pass it off with a stamp. I'm sorry but that throws off balance imo. I think adding repulsor is your best bet to pass both myself and the admins, without folding or transforming.

Remove passengers. This isn't a transport. We discussed this on the last sub. This is an attack craft isn't it?

Reduce capacity of rocket pod to 4.

That is it for now.
