Although by that reckoning AT-AT's would have to have had blaster cannons.
The above quote is correct. This is the breakdown:
AT-AT:
* 2 heavy laser cannons
* 2 medium laser cannons
AT-ST:
* 1 turret light blaster cannon (port side)
* 1 anti-personnel concussion-grenade launcher (starboard side)
* 1 medium twin blaster cannon (chin)
AT-PT:
* light twin blaster cannon (chin)
* concussion-grenade launcher (chin)
I think what we have a mis-identification of the guns on the AT-AT. I think references should have called them, "Heavy Blaster Cannons". Though the firepower from the main guns that hit the generator on Hoth resembled a Turbolaser and can thus be called, "Laser Cannons". But if they were Turbolasers they should be green as are the Star Destroyer guns.
Although called "Laser Cannons" on the AT-AT... let's assume they're "Blaster Cannons". If that's the case, the AT, ST, and PT all have Blaster Cannons and should all be red.
