Myrmid Droids -Jedi Killers

The Myrmid battle droid was manufactured by Mankim Engineering Systems as part of the Mankim Droid Army. It was designed primarily for use against Jedi opponents.

Design

The droids' arms lacked any kind of graspers, instead having a large pincer- or claw-like forearm that tapered to a point. The arms were reinforced with phrik or cortosis alloy, making them resistant to lightsabers.
