Seems so goofy, and it's always just destroyed over the stupidest shit (two logs hitting them, falling into a deep hole, etc.).

I mean, it's armoured and presumably has a much higher level of fire power.

Aren't they normally only taken out by named characters?

It's basically a tank that's higher up. It can hold heavy ordnance that repulsorcraft can't manage.

There were no AT-ATs in RotJ

And I don't know when Jawas would have encountered them

Now I'm imagining it squealing like a pig like ED-209.

Actually there was one. It was in the scene where Luke turns himself in to the Empire. It didn't appear again though and wasn't "fought".

They just look cool. Being big probably lets them be better armored and carry bigger weapons but being tall is at best mostly psychological but more likely just the look Lucas and/or the ESB design team liked.

I suppose if you really wanted to reach, it may give the pilot a better vantage point for locating guerrilla combatants, which is of course right in line with OT and ST warfare, but that's really pushing it.

The Psychological Terror was part of the Tarkin Doctrine.

That's why they designed the AT-AT / AT-ST the way they did.

Back in the early 80s the kid that got a AT-AT for Christmas was the luckiest person in the world.

I now imagine what if they had a full scale version for the thing to match the action figures of the time.

They made the mistake of giving AT-ATs giant legs instead of wheels.

If the AT-ATs had wheels the rebellion would have been decimated at Hoth

they're heavily armored and nigh indestructible to conventional gunfire. Unless you're in a ship, if you're face to face with an AT-AT you're pretty much done for.

I never understood why they didn't have side guns mounted on them.
