control bugs and MI marauders

[Denny crane]

may be a stupid question but can control bugs attack marauders like the ape and so on?

 

[Sharkman]

I dont believe that you can because it is a machine unit. Just like that CHAS

 

[Galatea]

I think they can. Marauders have a living crew, just like Exos or Power Suits.
Though it will have serious problems punching through the armour of a Chickenhawk (has Target 6+). And it can't take over Apes- they have target 7+.

I have to agree with Galatea on this one. No reason the bug couldn't break through the glass and take over the pilot.

yup they can, it's just really difficult as they only have a d6 in close combat.


Last game I managed to take over a full squad of pathfinder K9 troopers with ten control bugs..... so the dogs came over too.
Watching a squad of exo suits trying to stomp on six bug infested dodge 2+ neodogs was brilliant.
