11th Airdrop of SR Season 2 Mantris - The Drones, Aerial Guardians of Mantris

This week we are being propelled into the air with the drones of the 11th AirDrop of Special Rare Cards of this Mantris Season 2.

These flying robots belonging to the intelligence services of Mantris, have been designed at the cutting edge of engineering, and play a decisive role in the collection of information and the defense of the city. Encouraging the evolution of surveillance and combat tactics, the drones of the Mantris faction are true technological gems.


Clad all in metal, they spread their wings with sophisticated mechanisms, to monitor the Mantri sky. In these two captivating SR cards, the exceptional capabilities of these drones are exposed in radically different contexts.


How do the citizens of Mantris perceive the constant presence of these surveillance drones above their heads? Are they confident in this increased security or do they perceive it more as an intrusion into their privacy?

Standard Version

"The Skies of the Metropolis dominated by the Drones of Mantris."

The standard version depicts an illustration of a drone that is deployed majestically above the Mantri metropolis, thus performing the role for which it was designed. It monitors and protects the lives of the inhabitants in an optimal manner. It informs the operations and intelligence brigades of everything it sees during its rounds. It is also closely followed by two other same drones below. 


Together, they form a team organized down to the precision of the flight formation. The drones are all identical and have been developed with robust metal wings. In stationary mode, they deploy to stabilize themselves, and adopt a spherical shape when in motion to maximize their agility and discretion. These wings, which give them the ability to evolve with remarkable aerodynamic efficiency, also allow them to rub shoulders with skyscrapers lit up with neon lights and digital screens. 


Flexible tentacles equipped with various sensory sensors extend from their glossy carapaces, ready to collect data or transform into weapons during confrontations. At the front, two integrated rifles remain switched on when needed, ready to serve orders. They affirm and highlight the role of these drones as an essential defensive element for the maintenance of order for the forces of Mantris.

Alternative Version

"Clash of the Titans: Mantris Drone Invasion in an Ancient Palace."

The alternate version of the SR Map takes place in a sumptuous Palace with classical architecture, where the charm of the old and the futuristic designs of Mantris meet in a spectacular way. In the center, after breaking the glass dome on the ceiling, the drone engages in a fierce fight against warriors who seem to have come straight from Ancient Rome. Are they really from the Arkhante faction??


The drone's massive wings are spread for stability. The cramped space of the hall with its golden columns is transformed into an arena. The destructive metal tentacles grab the actors in this melee one by one. The drone now activates its weapons and opens fire on its enemies. This scene demonstrates the drone's ability to adapt quickly and effectively to various environments and combat scenarios.

How can we effectively counter the advanced technologies of these drones? 

"Surveillance and Combat, Drones at the service of Mantris."

The drones of the Mantris faction are an impressive testament to the fusion of advanced technology, high functionality, and strategy. Capable of navigating and operating effectively in environments as diverse as urban settings or sacred sites, these robotic jewels with multiple features are indispensable tools and key players in their faction's intelligence and security operations.


What other attack options could these drones have? Do you think they have the ability to communicate with each other?

These two Special Rare cards reveal not only the versatility and effectiveness of these drones, but also the ethical and social challenges their presence imposes on the societies they monitor and protect.


How are these drones integrated into their faction's hierarchy? Do they have human operators at their controls or are they completely autonomous? What type of mission exactly are they assigned?

By exploring their interactions in various contexts, we can better understand the concrete impact of this technology on humanity, and vice versa. All while anticipating and developing to further redefine the boundaries between security and freedom.
