Athansios great realism mod only one thing bugs me The AT-ST if you look in the star wars databank this unit should be way more efficient with its laser canons at killing infantry. It excels at this and is the best weapon for this in the empires ground arsenal. Its kinda of lame and unrealistic that the most efficient way to kill whole units of infantry is to stomp on them (ie run them over). If a AT-ST driver tried to do this he might get one guy at best as the rest scatter and this is unlikely. This unit really need to do more damage to infantry with its laser and targetting to be realistic with the lore. As it stand the most effective unit is the tie mauler for killing infantry because its faster so its runs them over easier. This makes a bit more sense because its tracked but again is a bit unrealistic. This was already an issue before the recent patch where the developer decreased this units damage versus infantry. From the star war databanks. and this is for the scout/recon. other at-st were designed to be even more effective against infantry. While not as imposing as its larger AT-AT walker cousin, the AT-ST nonetheless served as a significant addition to the Imperial side of battlefields in the Galactic Civil War. The two-man craft is lightly armed with chin-mounted laser cannons, and side-mounted weapon pods. The two-legged craft, dubbed the scout walker by many, serves as a reconnaisance and patrol vehicle, often flanking approaching AT-ATs and mopping up infantry that sneaks past the larger walkers. The Imperials used AT-STs in both the Battle of Hoth and the Battle of Endor.
