Guest Spidersymbiote Posted November 28, 2001 Share Posted November 28, 2001 What good is the Imperial Probot? Just scouting & detection? Does anyone use them? What is the difference between a probot and a scout? Can someone post the stats and cost of a probot and scout side by side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted November 28, 2001 Share Posted November 28, 2001 Don't know actual stats now, but the probot has got a better los, whereas the scout takes a lotta more damage and gives more of it back ... The scout can be used for combat, the Probot can't ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimjack Posted November 28, 2001 Share Posted November 28, 2001 A Probot starts with 1 better range (LOS) and is cheaper (I think) then a scout. It's also a troop and gets the upgrades from the troop center. The only use I can see is it lets you have a scout/detector unit without the need for a Mech Factory. I also think Lucasarts just wanted to put them in the game Because they're cool:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zygomaticus Posted November 29, 2001 Share Posted November 29, 2001 maybe they made it just for the sake of one more unit or cuz it appeared in the movies:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest IdLe_WorkeR Posted November 29, 2001 Share Posted November 29, 2001 Ten fighter aircraft can take 200 of them out in instants! Your AT-ATs are safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DashRendar Posted November 29, 2001 Share Posted November 29, 2001 I am not sure of this but the Probots have better range good speed(maybe not better but good) 1 less attack but fire faster than the scout so overall the probot is just as an effective scout as the scout if not better plus they'd probably be good for 2nd tech rushing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
