Created long ago by an Anx scientist named Pollux Poi, A-Series Assassin Droids survive their creator and have been scattered throughout the galaxy ever since- some as the property of new owners, others as Independent Droid mercenaries. Count Dooku acquires a sizeable quantity of them just in time for deployment against The Jedi in the Battle of Jabiim, though he continues to assign them to various commanders throughout the course of the war.
The Assassin Droids presented below are the most basic model, equipped with mounted Wrist Blasters and retractable Finger Blades. However, over the centuries since the death of their creator, the A-Series Droids have accumulated countless new weapons (and the training to use them) including Grenade Launchers, Flamethrowers, Sonic Rifles, Vibroblades, and- reportedly- Lightsabers. They are also able to collapse into a wheel shape, enabling them to move somewhat faster- an innovation usually associated with the Droideka-Series Destroyer Droid.
A-Series Assassin Droids can't be played as Droid Heroes.
