Just like they did in that really old movie, The Empire Strikes Back, the Rebels are faced with the daunting prospect of taking down some AT-ATs here. Well, not quite.

The vehicles shown here are actually AT-ACTs, which apparently makes the world of difference. It stands for All Terrain Armoured Cargo Transport, and as well as being slightly larger than the regular AT-AT, they also feature a dedicated cargo bed for transporting heavy materials, and are deployed at major Imperial construction sites.

Or in other words, they're helping with the construction of the Death Star.
