All Terrain Armored Cargo Transport Driver

Description: AT-ACT Driver
Prefix: TA
Detachment: Armored Cavalry Detachment
Context: Star Wars: Rogue One

The Empire’s combat drivers are trained to handle everything in the Imperial ground arsenal, from the heavily armed AT-AT’s to the more utilitarian AT-ACT walkers. On the tropical planet of Scarif, AT-ACT walkers were used primarily for transporting heavy equipment at the Citadel Tower. However, thanks to the expertise of the combat drivers, the AT-ACT walkers could be transformed from large equipment to instruments of war at a moment’s notice.

This is a visual guide used for 501st costume approval, not a how-to for construction. Construction details are found at the costume's Detachment website. Measurements provided here are are generalized, and not criteria for approval. All 501st costumes are proportionate to the wearer in terms of size, fit, and scale. During evaluation, both text and images (CRL and Reference) must be considered. When in doubt about a feature of a submitted costume, GMLs should post questions in the Legion forum's DL/GML peer review section.
