AT-ST Vs Tau Hammerhead Gunship
AT-ST vs Tau Hammerhead Gunship

Not sure how much the AT-ST has a chance in this match in any given scenario. Just about any terrain the Hammerhead has the advantage. So, is there any scenario where the AT-ST can win?

    How is this not a one shot kill for the Hammerhead?

    So, is there any scenario where the AT-ST can win?-no theres not. Simple.

    AT-ST loses badly. The advanced Imperial “armor” won’t save it. The thing explodes when it falls over for Emperor’s sake.

    What are the dimensions of the Hammerhead?
    If its wider than an AT-ST, then an AT-ST could win in a room with a low indestructible ceiling and a forest of indestructible pillars that creates gaps so that an AT-ST can maneuver but a Hammerhead (and its turret) can’t.
    Basically, a situation in which the Hammerhead can’t move or bring its weapons to bear but an AT-ST can…

    But such a scenario is highly unlikely so the Tau win.

    Who decided to pit a Main Battle Tank against a Scout transport? You may as well put a Humvee against an M1 Abrams for crying out loud?

    I don’t see how this is even fair…. one universe’s most advanced tank vs. a fucking unbalanced walker that can de defeated with catapults.

    That implies that the AT-ST is atleast as maneuverable as the hammerhead.

    No contest here

    This is just fiction abuse. In no way, shape, or form is this even remotely close to fair.

    So I think an award is due, there has been no -wait there can be no defense of how the at-st could win.

    Why not have a sentinel vs an At-St, they’re pretty much the same thing.

    If the gunship deployed the gundrones it had than that might be remotely fair any other scenario no chance.

    @chewie6000

    We have not had that match, we had one similar:
    http://www.factpile.com/at-pt-vs-imperial-guard-sentinel

    I’m sure that an AT-ST would have a considerable advantage over any Sentinel pattern. However, feel free to make the Battle Request or go to the Alternate Battles section of the Forums.

    Yea, this is pretty straight bad news for AT-ST. Hammerhead wins.

    “God I was an ass there ”

    We live, we learn, we grow. If we all looked for our early posts, we will most likely see them as less than favorable.

    In your defence, you were an eighth grader.

    the tanks of the god emperors imperium have trouble dealing with hammerheads

    a sentinal wannabe has no chance.

    railgun=win
    burst cannons= smaller win

    One shot kill
    But the AT ST has a 2000 meter range so not so simple

    who thought to pit a light scout/assault vehicle against a the Tau’s main battle tank?
    geeze, the poor AT-ST can’t run-to slow and can’t hide (too big)
    perhapse it should just join the greater good?

    the hammerhead can skimmer over ANY kind of terrain and hit a moving target very easy it just goes upp into the air and then lowers the gun and boom, at-st dead
    the tau have so advanced targeting and movement systems that eaven if the crew was blind they whuld still win
