Gladiator Walker
designed after the Imperial AT-ST and its predecessor, the AT-PT, gladiator walkers became popular during the rise of the New Order. Produced by zZip Product Concepts and SecuriTech, these vehicles were single-person units designed to allowed the rider to fight in a tournament against other riders. Armed with a light laser cannon and protected by heavy armor and shields, gladiator walkers were relatively safe to operate. In the event of imminent danger to its occupant, the walker's computer system would shut down the entire system and notify other walkers of its "demise."
