The Shi’ar Imperial Guard are a group of alien heroes and enforces, serving the Shi’ar Empire. They primarily are seen in X-Men space adventures. They — including Titan — first space appeared in space 1977.

The Guards are expies  for DC’s Legion of Super-Heroes. In this frame, Titan is an expy for Colossal Boy.

Some Guardsbeings have mini-profiles on writeups.org. I have no idea why I took these sparse notes. But heh, since they are usually encountered in big brawls, having profile that are mostly rough stats is still useful.

Imperial guardsmen and Starjammers

After a few profiles of Imperial Guards, I’ve come to the conclusion that all Imperial Guards have a weird Drawback, worth 10pts. They are unable to spend their HPs when in presence of the Starjammers. Or perhaps the Starjammers when they are led by Corsair.

This works even if the ’jammers are not their sole opponents. For instance, they cannot spend HPs to attack or defend against a joint force of Starjammers and X-Men.
