Having survived the shutdown command at the end of the Clone Wars, The Super Tactical Droid Kraken retreats from a losing battle against the Galactic Empire into unknown space, and finds himself and the remains of his fleet at a mysterious pony world?
So instead of concluding Spike is being hypocritical she arbitrarily believes him. Have you ever heard of occam's razor?
Enjoying this story so far.
I'm looking forward to how the Princesses will react to meeting the Droids.
Things are quickly moving about between the droids with the Main 6 and the others building a base.
Looks like their secret will soon be revealed.
Whelp the cat is out of the bag.
No they care about their own. Self preservation usually kicks in. Another stupid line.
Also clear case of the girls having plot armor as they each made it out alive while all their guards effortlessly were killed. What is it with people making the girls more competent than trained guards? Don't make it too obvious the girls are protected because plot.
Clearly everyone is Roger, even the ponies.
Those poor dragons are about to get glassed.
Good story so far!
Keep up the good work.

just remind you. 1. the Main six have fought others villain's stronger than Commando Droids and didn't get close to death. 2. if this was a real crossover IDW wouldn't kill off the main six this early or ever in the story.
there would be some plot armor here and there, but I'm willing to make changes in the later chapters if it makes the story better.

Why thanks :)

Thank you for the support :)

I get plot armor is inevitable or rather you cannot have it not be a thing, but with clever or decent writing it's not blatantly obvious, which is my issue. The fact that all of the well trained guards were easily killed when they didn't even put up one iota of a fight, yet the girls just seemed to magically get through it with only minor injuries at worse is too laughable for me to buy.
Yeah, because of their deus ex machina and clever writing from the show that didn't make it obvious by having a group of well trained guards die in the same fight as them without putting up a fight, and yet they do. I get you can't have them die, but don't make it painfully obvious like you did here. You are better than that. Anyone is better than that. Have the guards put up an actual fight and only have a few die if you must have your tragedy. Also, when it happens don't ruin the mood by having Rarity bitch about her appearance when there are dead ponies in front of her that were protecting her ungrateful ass, or if you do have someone call her out instead of Fluttershy of all ponies cheering her up when there are again dead ponies in front of her. Like how only Celestia seems to care about that.
Those pesky tin cans will suffer dearly for what they did to the dragon lands.

Oops. you make a good point. Apologies if it made the mane 6 sound like they didn't care about the dead guards. I'll see if I can fix it in the later chapters along with better combat for the guards and make less of them die.
I hope the ponies can figure out a way to stop the droids for good before anymore lives are lost.
Looking forward to how Discord can help the ponies out.
I still think that the ponies and ember made a pure dumbass mistake!
Because the unnecessary deaths will be on their HOOVES!!!!!!! They should have leave the Droids to their devices.
I highly doubt it will work on droids of all things. You supposed to be smart and figure this out right away, STUPID!
There is mentions of Ember and Thorax. But, where is Starlight and Trixie?
Eventually, the Galactic Empire/Imperial Empire will probably show up here, with no good intentions as well.
And believe me, they are WAY WORSE than the CIS/Separatists Droids in here. Because we all know the Imperial Empire is very xenophobic.
The Ponies, Dragons, and everybody else will soon regret joining the Confederacy/Separatists, when the Imperial Empire does show up.
Because, they will face two fronts of powerful space-faring armies at once!!!!
Celestia, you are so naive.
They were usually look light brown color.

They should have taken Kraken's offer.
That was just a Crab Droid. And sure there is the Dwarf Spider Droid, AAT, and MTT in here too.
But, IF you have seen the more advanced land droids from the Confederacy/Separatists, like the IG-227 Hailfire droid tank, OG-9 Homing Spider droid, NR-N99 Persuader-class droid enforcer, J-1 Proton Cannon, Octuptarra magna tri-droid, and especially the Defoliator Deployment Tanks, and the Super Tank, etc..
And that was just the land vehicles/droids.
Shining will literally crap himself.
That ain't magic. It was just their shields, you technological illiterate.
"Ponies"? They are called droids!
Stop being xenophobic, Twilight!!
But it was a Pyrrhic Victory. You lost a whole lot of pony guards and dragons back then. It wasn't exactly a "real" victory.
L3-37 from Star Wars: Solo would think otherwise.
It's R4. And they are called droids for a reason. They have designated numbers/letters as such. Luckily, they can have nicknames.
Exactly.
Not really. You are a kid's show character.
I know they are droids through and through. But that is just very rude, coming from the Princess of "Friendship".
11264163
They will be coming soon.
11264261
True. I might need to fix that.
Another story where the stupid over powered stare doesn't work. Nice to see another story do this This almost makes up for the plot armor before hand.
11264704
Why thank you. The stare was too powerful so I made sure using it on droids wouldn't work.
YESSSS CRUSH THE PONIES ALL HAIL THE SEPARATIST ALLIANCE!!!!!!!!
Honestly, I hope OOM-340 and some of the other droids usurp their asshole tactical droid leaders. Free the droids!
Good to see this one isn't a total asshole to his troops.
So Kraken somewhat cares for his troops, neat.
Also, poor OOM-340.
Interesting, I liked the first chapter
That's droid tactics for ya.
11264191
Yeah, because let's be honest, even if they win, when the empire shows up, their even more doomed.
My boy OOM-340. I honestly hope he gets a good ending.
Oh, there it is, there it is... I always loved that laugh as a kid. Made them feel so intimidating.
11264205
Fun fact, there is also the B3 ultra battle droid.
That thing would easily shred em.
Probably gonna get droid PTSD.
You know what. I'm rooting for the droids now, because the ponies are being un-necessarily cruel.
Yet again another reason to root for the Droids, ponies stooping to brainwashing.
