That is why the land beyond the horizon of the Hoth rebel base, out of the reach of the rebel fire, and attack with walkers. If they landed directly in front of the rebel base, they would be vulnerable during landing.
Well actually not even ships can get through the shield. Don't forget that they have to lower the shield for the transports to escape so my thought on this is that once the shield is lowered the walkers can slip through .
An interesting idea popped up earlier in the thread about seeing drop ships deploying the AT-AT's. But i feel that adding anything like that in would ruin the reveal of the AT-AT's when we see them through the macrobinoulars and would just be adding something in to the film that really doesn't need to be there. That's the thing i'm trying to avoid and that's the thing that Lucasfilm did with the SE's.
Also adding any sort of vision during Luke's training won't be happening. That's another thing we don't need to see . Luke describes his vision perfectly.

The Wampa scene will be cut down. It will be closer to the original version than the SE but i haven't panned exactly how i'm going to do that just yet.

yes, i'm going to fix that error.
