> [@Jragon](#): > > CLEARLY WTC7 was an evil Taliban AT-AT and the cables were attached to our brave American snowspeeders. Whatever you’ve been drinking, I’d like some of it. Your clarity leaves much to be desired. WTC7 was a Metropolitan Terrain Armored Tower (MT-AT), Block D. Just look up the plans, which are stored in the archives at WTC2. (Or, at least they used to be.) ---
