STRENGTHS

• High-Capacity Infantry Transport: Able to carry up to 72 soldiers, the MKIII can deploy an entire platoon deep behind enemy lines or in contested zones, functioning as both a heavy tank and armored personnel carrier (APC).
• Integrated Defensive Suite: Equipped with LO-VX adaptive shields, LO-MRS1 magnetic pulse system, LO-PDL-1A point defense laser, and LO-RA1 reactive armor, the MKIII has a multi-layered defense that protects it from kinetic, energy, and explosive threats.
• All-Terrain Capability: Retains AT-TE-inspired hexapod stability with upgraded servos to support its larger frame, allowing it to traverse steep inclines, rocky terrain, and even scale vertical surfaces when needed.
• Sustainable Firepower: The modular main cannon (swappable between mass driver and LO-series guns) alongside multiple rotary and light cannons allow the walker to handle a variety of battlefield roles from siege warfare to anti-infantry suppression.
• Combat-Proven Redundancy: Even if shielding or external defenses are compromised, the reinforced triple-layered Fyrirdögun armor and internal systems redundancy ensure it can survive catastrophic damage longer than most walkers in its class.

WEAKNESSES

• Oversized Profile: The walker's enlarged chassis makes it easier to detect and target on the battlefield, especially from long-range artillery or anti-armor platforms.
• Slow Turning Radius: While maneuverable for a vehicle of its size, the walker still suffers from sluggish pivoting and cornering speeds compared to repulsor or tracked vehicles, especially in urban or tight terrain.
• Infantry Vulnerability During Deployment: While unloading its full complement of 72 troops, the large rear or belly hatch presents a temporary weak point that could be exploited if ambushed mid-deployment.

DESCRIPTION
The AT-AE MKIII represents the Lilaste Order's evolution of the classic AT-AE heavy assault walker into a dedicated frontline command and deployment platform. Scaled up by 1.5 times its predecessor's size and constructed entirely from Fyrirdögun, the MKIII merges heavy firepower, reinforced survivability, and versatile battlefield logistics into a single imposing machine.

Whereas the earlier AT-AE models were limited to troop deployment and direct fire support, the MKIII introduces a new capability: an integrated deployment bay capable of housing and deploying a single AT-AS MKII light assault walker directly onto the field. This allows commanders to extend their tactical reach by launching fast, mobile units for flanking maneuvers, ambushes, or scouting operations, all while maintaining the MKIII's presence as a heavy spearhead.

Internally, the MKIII accommodates up to 72 fully equipped soldiers, significantly increasing its capacity compared to the MKII, making it an armored personnel carrier capable of deploying an entire platoon into high-threat zones. A rear ramp or underbelly hatch enables rapid deployment of both infantry and its AT-AS MKII, providing flexible deployment options based on terrain and mission objectives.

Defensively, the MKIII is layered with some of the most advanced systems available to the Lilaste Order. Its LO-VX adaptive shield generator allows it to phase between kinetic or energy-focused resistances, while the LO-MRS1 magnetic pulse system and LO-PDL-1A point defense laser work in tandem to deflect or destroy incoming projectiles, including missiles, mines, and grenades. For close encounters or siege-breaking roles, LO-RA1 reactive armor provides additional protection, absorbing impacts from high-velocity rounds and explosives.

Despite its size, the MKIII retains its hexapod all-terrain capability, able to scale difficult terrain, including vertical surfaces. Its weapon suite remains modular, with a central Enforcer Mass Driver Cannon that can be swapped out for Lilaste Order's LO-series weapons to adapt to anti-air, anti-armor, or even the AC300 Artillary cannon

The AT-AE MKIII excels in combined-arms assaults, designed to punch through enemy lines while coordinating walker and infantry deployment on the fly. Whether anchoring a defensive line, leading a vanguard assault, or acting as a mobile command node, the MKIII is a symbol of the Lilaste Order's tactical flexibility and overwhelming battlefield presence.

Mostly solid submission, but I do have one issue.

The walker is fully constructed from Fyrirdögun, providing extreme durability

This goes against the Extreme Rating rule. Most people aren't going to read the ratings in the boxes, so I will ask you to change this to match the rest of your ratings.

Ah beans I meant to remove that when I added the new metal Rara Gowisi

Thank you. Standard warnings, don't abuse, yadda yadda.
