Wookiee Hunter AT-ST
Force Unleashed
#44/60

Date Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2008

 
Sith Dragon Wookiee Hunter AT-ST
Imperial
Cost: 58
HP: 120
DEF: 14
ATK: +8
DAM: 40

Double Attack; Mobile Attack; Mounted Weapon; Net Gun 16; DR 10; Rigid

Today we look at the new and revamped AT-ST. The stats are the same as its predecessor. Both have double attack, mobile attack, DR10, and rigid. For four points more you are losing Grenades 20 and gaining net gun 16. I am not impressed. I never really used grenades, so that isnt a big loss, but i really do not think that it is worth the 4pt increase even though the save is 16 instead of 11.

The WH-ST suffers from all the problems as the original AT-ST. Its attack is horrendous and its defense isnt much better. DR 10 helps, but you still need to bring LOTS of help. Thrawn is usually going to be your best bet for the +3/+3 and swapping. You can also use blizzard scout 1 to make it cheaper as well. But the WH-ST does have one interesting tidbit - for now. Here's what i am talking about from the rule book:

Definition of Wookiee: "A wookiee is any character with the word 'wookiee' in its name or that has the wookiee special ability. Chewbacca and Tarfful also count as wookiees."

Since the WH-ST has wookiee in its name it is considered to be a wookiee. I guess this is what a shaved wookiee looks like. So what does this have to do with the price of blue milk? It means that you can bring the WH-ST into a republic squad via Commander Gree. It also means that through Master Yoda, the WH-ST can gain bodyguard. A BG with DR10 and a lot of HP is powerful, if not expensive.

100/150pts - Dont use it here. It needs too much help and its stats are just too bad, like its predecessor.

200pts: It can be run here, but its stats are going to need help to do much. It will be more of a fun piece than a competitive piece.
