To be in line with the movie, the HELs should probably be more
powerful.  Even though they spent most of their time plinking at
infantry, there is the scene where the commander calls for full power to
take out the power generator.  The resulting shot seemed like it was
more in the 4-5 range (for the two weapons together), although the AT-AT
seemed to have to stand still and power everything else down to do it.
