Capsule:  This walker, often dubbed the titan, was developed by Imperial remnant forces during the Yuuzan Vong invasion, as a means to battle the numerous ground and aerial craft the Vong had.  Since many of those creatures often used doval basals to 'soak in' energy blasts, and the Jedi had proven that 'force propelled' projectiles often got through, Grand Admiral Palleon felt a howitzer unit would do well on the battle field.
He broke out an abandoned project from the height of the Empire, which called for a 6 legged walker unit that had a trio of heavy barrel artillery launchers, which had a turret.  The walker would move itself into position, drop down into a stable firing spot and then start launching shells into the enemy ranks.  

Since the fall of Coruscant, the production of these walkers has started in 3 facilities, though by the end of the Vong war, only 4 dozen were ever pushed off the Assembly line.
