IG-100 Magnaguard for Star Hero

[Mathew]

This one came out right at 250 points. Great as bodyguards, troops for higher level campaigns, or a powerful villian weapon for low point campaigns. Suggestions welcome.

From the Star Wars wiki - "The IG-100 MagnaGuard, or Self-Motivating Heuristically Programmed Combat Droid, was an advanced type of battle droid that was manufactured by Holowan Mechanicals and used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. Ordered by Count Dooku, the MagnaGuards were designed to be General Grievous's personal bodyguards, although they were sometimes used as Dooku's personal guards or as infantry. "

The 10pts +20 Int -1 only for Perception rolls is VERY cheesy. It really should be 12pts +4 Perception skill levels. It's more expensive, but it's the correct way to write it up. BTW are you going for a better vision at night or just a 'droid that is very very good at noticing things?

Already fixed that Perception thing, just hadn't uploaded the update. I added it as the Star Wars Saga rules gave them a bonus to Perception... but I am still learning those rules.

 

I maye have to add stretching after watching this video:
