Breaking it'll be harder than you expect, and will require explosive motion available to mammalian leg muscles but not to the actuators the Empire used in those leg mechanisms.
Possibly, but as long as I don't stand with my legs together I suspect I'll just be able to step out of it once they have finished. If I keep moving while they are running around me I suspect I'll be snapping a few strands at a time and they'll be dizzy and puking long before they have enough turns round me to make me fall down :)

I love the films, I love the setting and the stories, but I get less and less forgiving of the storytelling.

And this is why "The Battle Of Hoth As It Should Have Been" occasionally gets trotted out at cons -- _Lambda_ Shuttles and TIE Bombers escorted by TIE Fighters, vs. X-Wings and Y-Wings.

"That armor's too strong for blasters... roll a couple Y-Wings with Proton Torpedoes."

[*BOOM*!] [*BOOM*!] [*BOOM*!] [*BOOM*!] [*BOOM*!]

"Well, *that* was quick...."

Wrong Universe. .:)

In this case, I'm thinking more of the line from _Split Second_: "WE NEED BIGGER [CENSORED]ING GUNS!"

I will be incorporating most of these suggestions into the revision.

Honestly, the whole impetus for doing this was coming across the AT-AT top view while downloading other cars for Ballard, OK

This is reminding me of the "Juggernaut" from the _Autoventures_ _MegaForce_ parody _Ultraforce_....
