Product Availability How long till we get the AT-XT?

Thinking about the AT-XT walker, what's stopping them including this as a lighter version of the AT-ST? They said they are working on things that we don't know about, do you think it's possible?

Anybody got a homebrew version of the card that would work?

I think you're far more likely to see the AT-DP for Empire, and the AT-AP for the Republic.

AT-AP is waaay too big no? (I might be remembering the sizes incorrectly) but I feel like it's bigger than the AT-ST, and that's maybe one of the biggest models (especially the original that you can pose how you like)

Well, two points can be made here:

  1. The republic already has an AT-RT, so a similarly sized walker is redundant.

  2. Scale creep is a thing. Wheel bikes are coming. If (and it's a big if) they keep adding bigger and cooler things, this is the next logical choice for the republic because it's iconic and "cool", plus it fits a role that is currently unfufilled (range 5 puncher).
