After discovering the new hidden Rebel base on the planet Hoth, Imperial forces led by Darth Vader and General Veers assaulted the ice planet. Imperial Snowtroopers and Rebel Soldiers battle in a frantic trench battle while the Rebels try to evacuate to what they believe is the safety of space, but what really is a nest of Imperial Star Destroyers.

Using a mixture of Vintage and POTF2 toys, I've created an interpretation of the Battle of Hoth based on the old trench battles that occurred during World War 1.  The entire scene is broken up into different pictures, mainly cause it was hard to take an encompassing picture due to the scene being in my closet. There is some Photoshop manipulation involved as well.

An overhead view of the battle as Rebel and Imperial soldiers blast away at each other thru the snowfields of Hoth. In the background is an AT-AT Walker getting ever closer to the Shield Generators that protect the Rebel Base. Also you can see a Wampa curiously watching the battle unfold.

           

The Rebels prepare to launch more Snowspeeders against the Imperial onslaught as Tower Cannons and Radar Laser Cannons fire cover shots for escaping Rebels. 

              

General Veers leads the Imperial ground forces into action. High powered cannons barrage the Rebels with high intensity lasers as Imperial Walkers stomp their way towards victory.
