Description:
Standing much taller than a human, the Immolator is an imposing and dangerous presence. Created by Archangel to push their agenda or organic extermination the idea of a heavy assault droid with a flamethrower was too tempting to ignore.

In combat the Immolator relies on thick armour and solid footing as it is too large to hide and is quite slow. To add to its survivability it mounts a shield such as used by destroyer droids in the clone wars. This shield must be deactivated to use its flamer however, and when it gets close to the enemy.

Striding forward, the Immolator softens up the enemy with its blaster cannon before unleashing its flamethrower. This powerful weapon can throw a cone of burning fuel ten metres long and three wide at maximum range. It can clear out rooms or trenches easily, and then move forward to cut down the survivors with its cannon. The droid’s sheer mass is also an asset, as it can trample and crush enemies in combat. It can also confidently walk through its own flames unharmed in a way organics cannot.

Naturally, the Immolator has weaknesses. Although it mounts a blaster cannon it is designed for short to medium range engagements, meaning it lacks effective long range weaponry. The nature of its armament also means it lacks heavy penetration against tanks or armoured structures.
Although the shield is powerful it must be lowered for the flamer to be used, as well as in rough ground. This gives an opportunity to attack. Likewise, the rear of the droid is much lighter armoured and contains the field tanks for the droid. A powerful strike to the rear might well cause the fuel to detonate.
