Hi Guys, Well here is my second almost finished/finalized custom. I'd love to hear your feedback or input for this character. One Note real quick, I may tweak him later after I finish my Ziro the Hutt custom. I may add in affinity or synergy or something to that effect once I feel Ziro is where he should be.  Here he is; KRONOS-327, Ziro The Hutt's, IG-86 Assassin Droid *May change the name slightly when Ziro is finished* Faction: Fringe Rarity: Rare Base: Medium Cost: 24 Hit Points: 70 Defense: 18 Attack: +9 Damage: 20 Special Abilities: UniqueDroid: Immune to critical hits; not subject to commander effects Black Sun: If a character whose name contains Xizor or Vigo is in the same squad, this character gains Grenades 10 Assassin: (+4 Attack and +10 Damage against living enemies) Programmed Target: (After setup, choose any 1 enemy. This character gets +4 Attack and Accurate Shot against the chosen enemy.) "O Ziro the Hutt, Master of the Hutt Clan on seven systems, I am sorry Your Highness. It will not happen again." "I know. Take him away, and use him for spare parts!" KRONOS-327 and Ziro the Hutt. Let me know what you think.

Good job squelch dog, way to pick an obscure character (that I'm fairly sure hasn't been done yet).
So thoughts on 327
Love the quote and I can see you based it off the IG-86 for stats
I like the simplicity behind the character to as its nice to have new pieces with old abilities to keep easy
The only thing I would add is maybe a point or two to his defense/attack to represent his experience, I think you could get away with a minor change like that without changing his cost (especially since he is unique and there can only be one HIGHLANDER!!! [sorry that was random])
I am interested to see your Ziro custom and hope it has some sort of CE/SA for these guys or even just fringe droids in general.
All in all good job and hope to see more clone wars characters and more customs in general from you man.

Not quite true about never being done, but I like yor version Squelch better than mine. Although your stats are basically the same as mine, I like your abilities better. I just gave him Droid, Accurate & Opportunist. I don't know why I didn't think about Programmed Target (Duh!) and I love the Assassin ability you created; may have to steal it and recreate my card

Thanks a bunch guys. I had thought I had bumped the base stats from the IG-86 Assassin Droid when I first started working on KRONOS-327, but apparently I didn't. I'll have to bump them up another point or so, thanks for pointing that out General Grievous. Thanks for the comments. Actually I can't take credit for that ability surf rider. That is a new ability from the Renegades and Rogues V-Set. I had thought I was the first one to make KRONOS but I guess not.  I did a search for his name in the Customs section and he never came up. Did you post yours there yet? Did you name yours something different? It would have been nice to see what other customs people came up with. I like to do that to make sure my idea's are somewhat original. I don't want mine to look like a carbon copy of someone else's idea. Steal away dude! Wish I could say that ability was mine, but sadly it's not.  Thanks for the comments.

I've posted a comparison of my new/old Kronos, incorporating the new ideas, into cards on my customs thread; didn't want to pirate your thread Squelch. Let me know what you think.
It occurred to me why you didn't find my version in the Bloo Customs area; I've got a couple hundred custom cards/mini's made over the last 4-5 years of customizing SWM's and I'd be typing till my 2 yr old grandson graduated from college .....

Cool beans, I'll head over to your thread and check them out.  Whoa....you have that many customs made!?! Wow that's quite a few. Ya I hear you there, my Grandson is 3. Can't wait till he's old enough to play mini's with us.

Well after thinking it over plus remembering why I had his stat's the same as an IG-86 Droid, I left them that way so he wasn't too much like an RS IG-88. Also since he did end up failing his last mission, I don't see this character as being as powerful as IG-88. So I think I'm going to keep them as they are General_Grievous. However, I'm thinking since I forgot he was Black Sun, *Thanks for reminding me surf rider.*  I might want to add that in. As for his experience, what about adding the Black Sun Special Ability instead? Although I don't want to go overboard with him. I just don't see him as being too powerful a character.

Thanks guys! Yes I'll be making a mini to represent him. At the moment I'm working on a Kronos-327 and Todo-360 custom. I have some other ones in the works as well. Once they are ready and I take pictures of them I'll post them for everyone to check out.

I'm also hoping to pose him the way he is on the picture of the card keith chose.  The IG-86 mini looks to be customizable so it shouldn't be too difficult. Since Ziro was purple do you think he required purple paint jobs for all his droids?
