UTGAR SOULBORG BONDING
Before taking a turn with Zettian Infantry, you may take a turn with any Soulborg Hero you control who follows Utgar.

CIRCUITRY REPLACEMENT
If a friendly Soulborg Hero who follows Utgar receives one or more wounds from a special power that is not an attack, you may destroy a guard in the Zettian Infantry you control that is adjacent to that Hero to ignore any wounds that Hero just received.

The figures used for this unit are Star Wars miniatures from the Clone Strike, Revenge of the Sith, and Universe releases. The name of the figures is Super Battle Droid. The figure numbers are (Clone Strike) 47 and 48, (Revenge of the Sith) 39 and 40, and (Universe) 10.

Q. If both a guard in the Zettian Infantry and an adjacent Utgar Soulborg Hero receive wounds simultaneously from Deathwalker 7000's Self-Destruct, can the Zettian Infantry figure use Circuitry Replacement before being removed from the battlefield?

Power Ranking and Master Index
They're a ranged bonding squad that can find room in the startzone for Deathreavers; that makes up for poor move/range and expensive, brittle heroes. B+
