AT-RT Poll

[crazydriver]

At-RT is completlyvoverpowerd. my friend made up a rule fr his at-rt if i hit 3 times strikers or launchers it is dead so fair game.

[lordxur]

In our games, we move the RT and then fire the four shots. You can adjust the aim, but you can't significantly shift the base.

Honestly, I don't see it as overpowered. The four shots are the smallest type...we haven't seen it kill off too many units. Further, I've seen launchers take one down.

I've yet to see one in play, but from the design, I'd guess it's all four missles as well. However, after you take a shot with any figure you can't touch them again, so I'm guessing you fire all four without re-aiming between shots.

If you dont reaim and you miss 1 shot you will miss them all with that rule.

You can HIT, and knock him off balance, the second shot might put him away. But you are right, if you completely miss with one, you will probably miss with them all.

Again, I haven't seen one yet (local stores only got Boga) - Can all four shots be fired with one "pull of the trigger"? I'd imagine 4 shots fired all at once could do some serious damage to a target.

[Joe Manzo]

Four missiles are loaded into a barrel. Each twist of the trigger will fire ONE missle, and roll the next missile into position!

I think this thing is awesome! yeah it's got 4 missles but they are weak ones. several times I would nail tarful at point blank range 4 times in a row only to have him laugh at me. on the other hand he IS very hard to take down with the knee plates. however it is super easy to take down with a weilder of the force push. After the game we learned that tarful can take it out easy too. With a force pusher, run up to it and strike it at an upward angle right in the front of the missles and down it goes every time. Same with if you hit that spot with tarful high five.

Cool, thanks Joe.

I'm thinking now that moving and aiming are two different things. I mean, who doesn't move their strikers a little while winding up a hit, or moving the launcher before pressing the button?

[Joe Manzo]

Aiming and Moving definitely are different. You move your figures then begin to fire. When you fire you twist torsos, and raise guns/arms.

I am still waiting on an official word from Hasbro on the AT-RT, so for now (and even after they tell us) it doesn't matter. Use a rule that works for you and your friends, and that's that!

[Lonestar]

I interpret the rules for this figure to be shoot all 4 as ONE attack and that you can't move the figure at all once the shooting begins.

If you can't shoot 4 then why have them, and I believe that the attacktix rules are clear and consistant with not moving figures once fired.

The advantage of shooting all 4 shots is that you have a better chance of knocking down your intended target, but you can't allow it to swivel because that would be too much of an advantage.

This is my interpretation and my house rules for this figure.

[Link369]

To stop th at-rt invincibillity we have a rule that if you hit it it goes back then pops back up after only one attack we move the target down. If they hit the target again and knock it back up its up.

[Phoenix]

So it's official! 4 shots = 1 attack. Woo Hoo!

[Joe Manzo]

Poll was locked! Hasbro says FOUR SHOTS every turn!

Thanks for participating!
