HOMING SPIDER DROID Craft: Homing Spider Droid Type: Walking Droid Tank Length: 8.2 meters (height) Scale: Walker Skill: Walker operations Crew: 1 (droid brain) Crew Walker operations 3D+2, vehicle blasters 3D+1 Cover: Full Passengers: 0 Cargo Capacity: 0 kg Move: 15; 45 kmh Manuverability: 1D Body: 1D+2 Weapons: Blaster Cannon x2 Fire Arc: Turret Skill: Vehicle blasters Fire Control: 1D Range: 20-60/100 m/200 m Damage: 5D The Homing Spider Droid, developed and used primarily by the Corporate Alliance, is an anti-personnel droid that was adapted for use as an anti-infantry unit. Originally concieved as a means of protecting Corporate Alliance assets (and enforcing trade restrictions), the Homing Spider Droid became an ideal quick-deploy weapon to act as larger scale backup for the ground forces of the Confederacy. Ideally, a Homing Spider Droid is released from a droid deployer in the front and rear lines of battle droid infantry; the independent walker then lumbers across the battlefield, picking off any enemy units that threaten their troops and offering a more tactical view (which is recorded via the droid's sensors and transmitted back to control centers) of the battle and providing a little more firepower than the disposable but weak droid armies normally present.
