Sure, because Rambo will totally NOT kill them first. 🙄

Read the thread, duder.

An emplacement is classified as anything rangin from machine gun nests to artillery emplacements. It doesnt move, and it has protection from normal fire, otherwise a M203, SAW, or M-67 would be used to take it out. Light armor is virtually a moving emplacement. Mainly machine guns to 60mm cannons, with just enough armor to stop bullets and M203 grenade launchers. They are called "Light Tanks"

example: M103 Bradley. Armored Personnel Carrier. Has enough armor to stop bullets, but a RPG would take it out. Not much armor.

All of them at once: Pwning Rambo. lolz

They also carry 2 thermal detonators each. Thats what the little tube on their lower back is for.

Mhm. And the M-72 LAW, here:

You do realize that Rambo disintegrated a HIND with one shot with one, yes?

Good call. ✅

Light anti armor. AT-AT is nowhere NEAR light anti armor.

Hind. Light armor. Helicopter. If there is to much weight on one, do YOU think it can get off the ground? Nope, dont think so.

And the neck, as I have pointed out, is, at best, lightly armored.

Teehee you mean the thermal detonators Rambo will acquire after he kills them?

Thanks for strengthening my argument.

No, at best it has the armor equivalent of 2 MBTs. We are NOT talking about steel here. At the least, it has the equvalent of 1 MBT. The body has far more. Now, you also need to refute the fact of the backwash (a giant FIREBALL) and the smoke trail left by the rocket. If he manages to hit the neck, it will not take it out, if he manages to fire the RPG, hell have stormies on his ass throwing thermal detonators and firing.

Yeah, lets see him arm them, and lets see him not know thei rblast radius and die with the stormies, lets see him take out a company of stormies with NO survivors at all.

Yeah...cause HE'll know WTF they are and how to use 'em, right...?
🙄

Dude he'd blow himself up.

Question is though: "Would he notice...?" 😖hifty:

Lulz, dude, he has a weeks prep to make that forest a death trap. The troops die first, leaving the walkers.

So he straps a detonator to an RPG rocket, shoots it at the neck, BOOM. Double the pleasure, double the fun.

RJ, your whole argument is "Rambo fires an RPG while simultaneously detonating a claymore in every bush on the planet of Endor while piloting said AT-AT to take out the other and never being caught doing it."

2 guys to pilot. 1 commander. 1 gunner. He can do all that. Right.

Repeat: Your wiki link said the neck was a "weak spot"; you've been asked, weak compared to what? How weak?

By your no-limit here, you could argue that Rambo firing one of his testicles from a slingshot would take it down, cos it's "weak."

haermm Dude, that's SO not my argumnent. I really hope you're trolling me instead of really thinking that. Please say you're trolling me.

Well, AT AT armor tanked turret blaster fire. The neck didn't. Pretty obvious it's pretty weak.

If the ATATs had vulnerable necks, the Rebels would have gone in attacking necks....

But those were on the light tanks of Star Wars. Snowspeeders have a bit more firepower than a M1 Abrams (yes, theres a difference when you get technical with the tanks)

And no RJ, you have said either Rambo pilots the AT-AT after killing them all, that he will take out every stormie with claymores, and he will take out an AT-AT with ONE RPG shot and relocate before any of the patrols or companies near him catches him, find where he was (not hard, backwash will leave large burned area) and then set up a grid search, in a couple mile radius with the resources they have at hand. They will designate fairly large patrols as they know he is experienced in warfare. They will have a fallback plan that if contact is lost for more than 5 minutes, or if there is not a check in for a certain time, they will have an updated location of Rambos, and send in the AT-STs in front of the troopers to set off claymores and minimize casualties (they will certainly lose some to the claymores)

If the rebels knew the AT AT's were vulnerable there, they would have used X Wings.

To fast. Thats like using a fighter to strafe a building. Much easier to use light armor/gunship.

Now that i think of it, snowspeeders are more like gunships than light armor.

No difference except lighter armor, faster, more guns, and a cannon that is heavier.
