Comments:
As Republic war planners began to understand the shape the Clone Wars would take, they made expanding the versatility of their ground forces a priority. The All Terrain Attack Pod rose out of just such thinking. An evolved, more powerful version of the earlier AT-PT, the AT-AP turned Republic heavy infantry into medium range artillery. It brought previously unheard-of versatility to the AT series of walkers, and informed many later versions with its unique innovations. Deployed as part of an armored infantry squad, it served remarkably well in short-range infantry support, while at the same time delivering punishing barrages against distant enemy emplacements.
