Luke flew outside the Rebel base alongside with his Rogue Squad. A lot of things changed in three years. In this battle he was the leader. As their squad flew he reported

"Echo Station, 5-7, we're on our way"

As they pass the rebels, they saw the AT-AT's in the distance. This was it.

"All right, boys, keep tight now" he informed to his team.

"Luke, I have no approached vector. I'm not set" Dak informed.

"Steady Dak" he told him gunner. "Attack pattern Delta. Go now"

As they passed the AT-AT's, Luke decided it was time to attack

"Okay I'm coming in" he said and he started to blast the walkers but nothing happened to it.

"Okay I'm coming in" he said and he started to blast the walkers but nothing happened to it

Their speeders continue to blast them leaving the AT-AT's unharmed. Luke realize that plan would not going to work

"That armour's too strong for blasters" he reported. He had to think of something. That's when he thought of a new plan "Rogue Group, use your harpoons and tow cables" he reported "Go for the legs. It might be our last chance"

"Luke, we've got a malfunction in fire control" Dak told him "I'll have to cut in the auxiliary"

Luke sighed. This was not going as plan.

"Just hang on" he told him "Hang on Dak. Get ready to fire that two cable"

But then he heard a blaster and Dak screamed.

"Dak! Dak" he called his gunner but with no answer. He knew he was dead. Great, he had lost his gunner. Someone else had to go to the legs of those things. Looking to his left he saw another speeders

"Rogue three" he called

"Copy Rogue Leader" Wedges voice's came out

"Wedge, I lost my gunner. You'll have to make this shot" he reported him "I'll cover for you. Set your harpoon. Follow me on the next pass"


"Coming around Rogue Leader" Wedge replied

As they passed between the legs of the AT-AT's, Wedge ordered to his gunner Wes Janson

"Activate the harpoon"

Janson just release the harpoon that attached to one the legs perfectly.

"Good Shot, Janson"

And with that the snowspeeder started to go around the legs of the AT-AT's until all the cable was around it.

"One more pass" Wedge said

Once it was enough Janson yelled

"Cable out. Let it go" and they release the cable, making the AT-AT's trip and fall on the ice, while other ship shot it making a big explosion.
