The quintessential Imperial soldier,
General Veers is a stern and polished military man completely loyal to the
New Order. Veers commanded the ground forces attached to
Lord Vader's elite Imperial Death Squadron. When Vader discovered the Alliance base on
Hoth, Veers prepared an invasion army to knock out the Rebel
shield generator protecting the base.
Veers' force consisted of Imperial AT-AT walkers supported by AT-STs. From his command position atop the lead walker, Veers ordered the laser barrage that vaporized the Rebel power generator, allowing Vader to land on the besieged world. Hordes of Imperial snowtroopers armed with heavy weaponry then infiltrated Echo Base with frightening speed.
