The CIS just got a serious brain upgrade. Super Tactical Droids are here to lead your clankers with icy precision.
Moreover, they arrive packed with modular rules that reward clever list building. However, they also punch hard enough to matter on their own. Consequently, droid players finally get a true centerpiece commander or operative.
Two Builds, One Ruthless Brain

Additionally, the platform is built to be tailored for any mission, making it a natural CIS keystone.
Doctrines and Hardpoints: Program Your Victory

Alternatively, Tyrannical Taskmaster expands the chassis with an extra Hardpoint and automatically readies one exhausted Hardpoint upgrade. Furthermore, Hardpoints define their battlefield reach. Limiter Override juices a friendly AI unit with one of three potent boosts.
Targeting Relay hands every visible enemy within range 4 an Observation token for coordinated volleys. Overclock trades one Immobilize to shove a friendly unit forward at Speed 2. However, Sliced Comms flips the script by jamming a nearby enemy with two suppression and shuffling a faceup order back into the pool.
Self-Boosts, Gear, and Cards That Seal the Deal

Additionally, Enhanced Combat Subroutines add Sharpshooter 1 and Lethal 1 for meaner shots. Strategic Programming provides Strategize 1 to bank efficiency every round. For hardware, Heavy Arm Cannon throws 2 red and 3 white with Suppressive to crater lines. Moreover, Electrostaff grants Charge and immunity to Melee Pierce for dueling heroes. Mobility Upgrade adds Scale and Steady for ruthless positioning, while Expanded Databanks unlocks yet another Hardpoint slot. Finally, two new command cards cap it off. T
actical Download stocks a shared pile of four Aim and four Dodge for AI units to spend, at the cost of Immobilize when used. Exterminate gives the droid Demoralize 2 and a free extra attack whenever its ordered unit deletes a target.
