Basilisk War Droid
developed by the ancient Mandalorian Crusaders, these automated attack ships were used to conquer star systems. The Basilisk droids were bulbous, insectile war machines that could operate on their own or with the help of a Mandalorian warrior. The Mandalorians called them "war mounts." There were several models of Basilisk droids produced, with individual mission profiles such as bombers, stealth ships, and open combat. Each of these ships was produced by the Basiliskans to the specifications of the Mandalorians, and were said to resemble a weird cross between a Karran beetle and a Zalorian rock-lion. The weaponry for these ships was varied, and consisted of shatter missile launchers, laser cannons, and shockwave generators.
