Ironborne and the other droids didn't had to particularly massacre the insurgents or really fight against them too hard with the arsenal they had, and just the fact that because of their innate strength within the mechanical bodies they could throw them around as much as they wanted, plus they had gadgets like the hypno-gaze which HK demonstrated earlier could work to disable their enemies and render them unconscious. The Sithspawn however would cause more trouble to them because acid and all that, thankfully the machines had the tough thick plates of their armor.
And they were equipped with weapons to deal with them.
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzt,
There was a sound of lightsaber as Ironborne took its blue plasma blade and drove it down clean through a Festerer, using telekinetic grip from his Grav-glove to keep the beast's mouth shut as he did so that its wicked spit would not splash over him and damage his hull. As the spawn collapsed Ironborne looked over the battlefield, the insurgents seemed to retreat, the spawns begun to dig down through the floor towards some unseen depths.
"
Seal these holes."
Ironborne heard the Iron Knight order as he turned about, the older droid moving towards one of the holes the spawn dug just as green noxious gas begun to creep out of it.
"I will deal with them myself."
And the droid slipped himself into the hole, chasing behind the Festerers, they would find no other troops from under his command walking into their trap, at least not yet, only the droid Lord Protector.
Ironborne turned back to scan over the scene, watching his Greycloak brothers perform the arcane sigils and signs, activating their Grav-gloves built into the biots that clad them to throw gravitational anomalies within the tunnels, gripping and pulling on the gravitational lay lines of the planet to collapse the burrow-holes behind Festerers and seal the noxious fumes inside. The fumes which could and probably were damaging to Festerers as well since they were Type 1 breathing species like the Aleen and did not seem to have any special chemical resistance that would spare them from the effects of the poisonous gasses.
Either way, in his scan Ironborne noticed a peculiar thing, a small floating drone seemed to have been zipping away from its cover to escape from the area. A miniature probe. It was not one of Abregado or GA designs as far as the Greycloak could tell so he raised his hand, extending it towards the little machine.
He contorted his hand into another sigil, throwing a gravitational anomaly at the small probe to grasp it with the lay lines and in the telekinetic grip tug on it, pulling it back and trying to yank it all the way to the Greycloak until it landed in his outstretched palms. If he was successful the mechanical fingers would wrap along the small probe quickly and electric shock would be delivered from the shock-padding of the Electro-Cestus Ironborne and other Greycloaks wore over their Grav-Glove systems built into the biot armor layer. If he did it all right then it should have been enough to disable the probe and render it dormant enough to be safely pocketed by the Greycloak for future analysis.
Whether he failed or succeeded he would hear screeches and hisses of the Festerers below ground just as there was a sound of lightsaber activating. Stepping up to one of the holes burrowed by them Ironborne could see flashes of white light emanate from the depths below.
Iron Knight had many tricks, one of them was his lightsaber,
the Sliver of Light, as he called it, it was a training lightsaber with a white blade and one particular feature, at its core resided a Solari crystal imbued with a permanent presence of the Light Side, which is why the droid could wield it as a non-Force being. It had another effect, it manifested the Light side within its blade, making it more effective against Force Wounds, Vampyres, shadow constructs, and indeed some Sith spawn. It also emitted an aura of pure Light side, combined with the Festerers' weakness for manifestations of the Light it probably worked like torches worked against Nazgul's, burning or chasing them away with its mere presence.
Either way, Ironborne could not know for sure as he did not saw the details of the battle between the Spawn and the Iron Knight. The Greycloak only extended his hand out to the burrow-tunnel he saw the white flashes through, forming a sigil to close and seal it much like his brethren-copies did.
