The debacle on Ord Torrenze was an early Galactic Civil War engagement between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance on the planet Ord Torrenze that demonstrated the need for the Imperial Army to provide unit support during armored assaults. Sustained Rebel blasterfire from building windows destroyed a single Imperial All Terrain Armored Transport on Ord Torrenze after the walker and its forward-facing armaments had passed the Rebel position. Drawing upon the lesson of Ord Torrenze, Colonel Maximilian Veers later quashed a Rebel insurgency on the planet Chandrila in a near-identical scenario using a force of two AT-ATs and additional ground support.
