Forged at the Kuat Drive Yards, the same production facility that crafted the Empire's prodigious Imperial Star Destroyer,
  the AT-AT walker is the perfect embodiment of Imperial philosophy. It favors fear over function, as the immense craft is more a
  weapon of terror than a completely efficient combat vessel. Although its complex leg mechanisms do require constant
  maintenance and repair, the rugged walker does live up to its all terrain name, being able to plod through most obstacles.
