robocop might be able to kill off a few stormtroopers, but he would easily be overwhelmed

Assuming Robocop is equipped with a blaster, he would still lose. His standard tactic seems to be standing or walking slowly in the open, taking in a lot of shots as he aims at and kills each of his enemies one by one. Unfortunately for him, blasters do a lot more damage than bullets.

It would probably see the grenade coming and

A. kick it away
B. run like hell

Then it uses its RPG to turn stormies into soup.

Any more good ideas?

He has the auto-cannon on his shoulder...will you replace that too?

Also, he took several rounds from the Cobra Assualt cannon - Remember the frikkin' huge gun in Robocop 1?

A res. bolt is not the be-all end-all with droids. They can rearange parts to make the bolts ineffective (ex. Whistler)

and EMPs might be a good solution, but not necessarily. Remember, IG-88B managed to keep a few vital systems going after being hit multiple times with an ion cannon.

Okay, having watched all the Robocop movies (I know, I know, no comment from the peanut gallery now...) it has come to my attention that they never built Robocop to run! He would be able to take down a number of Stormtroopers to begin with, but once they start using tactics on him, hes cooked. Robocops armor is only effective against small arms ballistic weapons. Anything larger (railguns, repeater rifle) or energy based (blasters, bowcasters) would roast Robocop as he trys to amble away from the battle, especially since his targeting becomes off at around 50% damage he looses his ability to take down stormtroopers unless someone recalibrates his targeting comp.

That thing is called ED-209, not Robocop 2

I think he's talking about Kane the drug dealer who had his brain inserted into the replacement for Robocop, not ED-209.

Both are called ED-209 according the scripts.

They called him Robocop 2 in the movie. Remember we're talking about the Kane cyborg from Robocop 2, not the ED-209 robot.

Yes, we are talking about Kane. Remember, the same gun that blew Ed-209s head off (Cobra Assualt cannon, I believe) didn't even put a dent in Kane (aka Robocop 2).
