Guardian Drone (Blackstone Fortress)

Guardian Drones^[1]

Guardian Drones are giant robotic war machines, that defend Blackstone Fortresses from intruders^[1].

Guardian Drones begin to appear when the defense systems aboard a Blackstone Fortress detects increased hostility and intrusions. Though similar to Spindle Drones, they are much larger and heavily armoured. Mass-fire with heavy artillery and Plasma Weapons are the most effective method of dealing with them.^[3]

In battle, they can unleash Hover Drones that will intercept any attacks aimed at the Guardian Drones.^[2] The presence of a Guardian drone sends their smaller Spindle cousins into a frenzy.^[3]
