Dwarf Spider Droid Unit Review

[@samus17]

2 of these bad boys with an ion gun and that spooky tank is now a paperweight. Totally taking these into my list

[@steakatron]

What I really like about the Protocol cards is that while yes they are all good and cheap, you can't avoid them without order tokens. You can always Aim/Dodge or Move, You can get around Attack but not the others, they keep the downside of AI no matter what and I really like that.

[@HollywoodWargaming]

Agreed. Very smart and dynamic mechanic.

[@rjlarose5271]

This unit and this wave has made me want to finally use my droids instead of selling them

[@captaingar9244]

What about using a self destruct to put wounds onto another dwarf spider to then use that ones self destruct?

[@shaunscott4773]

That was a good breakdown with some cool theory crafting for builds. Spider droid looks super fun, and I agree about the ion, I think that keyword will make a big comeback soon!

Reaction on your comnents of Armour3 in relation to Armour on the AT-RT: I think there can be made a argument here. Spiderdroids are quite thin at the metal parts in their legs. Sure they probably got some good hydrolics or something to be able to climb, but the steel parts that serve as armour arent that good probably. Also knowing the Seperatists the building materials probably couldn't be too expensive, since swarming cheap droids is their go to tactic. While the AT-RT probably has some thicc technology and quality legs. Not to mention the 'torso' part of the walker is very bulky. I am sad that the driver can't be shot out of the walker with some kind of mechenic where surrounding trooper clones can remount it, but that wouldnt be balanced at all. So I am glad it is like this.

Dward spider droid

[@3tacoman]

Hell ya !

[@christopherturco3494]

Does the self-destruct automatically go off, or do I get to control when?

[@HollywoodWargaming]

You control. It’s a free action

[@etiennefourie9335]

Not sure why they made the spider droid's weapon fixed front. If the AAT's main cannon can have 360 degrees of movement then why not the spider droid?

[@grahamoconnor7363]

The AAT turret spins, the spider droid gun is attached to the nose and it’s head doesn’t spin

[@etiennefourie9335]

@@grahamoconnor7363 I don't know why I thought it moved, I guess it just made sense to me that the DSD's head moves. Are you telling me that between the movies and and the TV show, we never see a spider droid move its head. Now that I think about it, I don't recall seeing it do so.

[@yenetheu]

Great unit to work along Kalani or Kraken. On the bad side I find little strange that with ARMOR 3 it will be less armored then AT-RT.

[@HollywoodWargaming]

I think the standard STD may be the best for multiple of them.

[@dantehart8493]

I definitely agree with the b+ ranking here. They seem solid but not too crazy. I feel if they made the ion cannon not exhaustible theyd be a solid A for anti armor but its nice to see how balanced they made everything with this unit. A nice addition to the separatists for sure

[@HollywoodWargaming]

The Ion Cannon would be insane if it didn’t exhaust

[@mikeiamwtf]

We need clone commandos...

[@BaileyBecca]

I’m find it irritating that the ATRT has more armor then actual tanks like the AAT

[@drhumupower8570]

In casual games, it's gonna be a blast 🤣🤣

[@hermanpesina6328]

With upgrade cards am I only suppose to use for example the coms cards from my spider droid or can I use any coms card i own on a unit that has the coms upgrade.

[@HollywoodWargaming]

You can use whatever you’d like. But those cards are what I believe to be the most effective upgrades that benefit from other synergies.

[@TheImmersedOfficial]

Nice ranking of B+last ;)

[@Reynergamer2014]

Your Martyr droid is 90, not 80! Looking forward to using this build sand comms jammer tonight.

[@HollywoodWargaming]

It’s 80. The points on the cards aren’t up to date.

[@Reynergamer2014]

@@HollywoodWargaming oh, what dropped? I assume my points are right tonight, tabletopadmiral is up to date.
