6 Krogoths (12 layers of Heavy Armour, double plasma cannons, huge laser cannon, twin heavy vertical launch rocket launchers)
12 Goliath Heavy Battle Tanks (Rapid-fire plasma cannon, two layers of Heavy Armour)
24 'The Can' assault Kbots (heavy laser cannon, one layer of Heavy Armour)

Imperial Assets
6 AT-AT walkers
12 AT-ST walkers
24 AT-PT walkers
It is not well for one to trifle in the affairs of the ancient Chinese generals, for they have a tendency to send armies of tens of thousands of warriors after those who challenge them.

If you go by the numbers some TA fans have come up with, one Peewee should be enough to devastate the entire Imp force mentioned. :shock:

You know that TA fanfic is considered Canon? And some of these IIRC feature neutronium-clad hundred-kilometer vessels with obscene weaponry. Classic fanboy wankfest, in other words. :)

i figure its almost a perfect match.

the only thing is, the peewees would get stepped on by just about anything.

i also didn't know there were any numbers. :shock:

i figure the plasma cannons are at least as powerful as the side blasters on an AT-AT. The heavy laser cannon is probably the same firepower as the 'Maximum Firepower' setting on the AT-AT, and the missile launchers are probably the same firepower as a modern ICBM, although focused into a smaller area.

Yeah, I'm aware of the canon status that some of the fanfic and Galactic War reports hold :)
I've never seen Cavedogs statement on TA's canon policy though so I'm a bit sceptical of it, especially if it goes against the manual or in-game.

Still, no match for the Culture :wink:

Quick-fic on the way...

one day the core stopped attacking arm so they could attack the empire. they lost, and the TA fanbois stopped wanking off long enough to cry.

the end.

The Krogoths alone lay waste to almost the entire Star Wars force mentioned.

I agree with Cyran. Krogoths are absolutely insanely powerful.

Have the Krogs concentrate on the AT-ATs. The fight will be quick, especially with Blue Lasers of Death, but the Krogs will take a fair amount of damage.

AT-STs won't last long (they arent all that strong), and plasma cannons aimed at the legs or "hip" of the AT-ST would cripple them. Same goes for AT-PT.
