A heavy recovery vehicle attached to Hell’s Hammers, an elite armor unit of the Empire (Joe Johnston concept art for what became the AT-AT in The Empire Strikes Back, from the Imperial Sourcebook for Star Wars the Roleplaying Game by Greg Gordon, West End Games, 1989) WEG’s writers used previously unseen art from the files of Lucasfilm, Ltd, as the basis of many new additions to the Star Wars expanded universe. Hell’s Hammers are mentioned again in Imperial Entanglements (1996) in a scenario for Star Wars Miniatures Battles featuring a recovery crew on foot attempting to retrieve an immobilized repulsortank.

TIE/br boarding shuttles were a type of transport used by the Imperial Navy. A variant of the TIE/sa bomber, TIE boarding shuttles were used to brinig troops to enemy starships, usually once they were inoperable or disabled, in order to secure control of them. They were particularly useful against smaller craft that standard transports were unsuitable for. The shuttles could hold up to twelve stormtroopers.
