Self-Detonation Protocol is a free reaction and action used by Steel Watchers, including the Steel Watcher Titan. This ability starts a self destruction sequence when their hit points get too low which culminates in a Self-Detonation Self-Detonation.

For normal Steel Watchers, this is triggered automatically as a reaction when they are reduced to 30% hit points. For the Steel Watcher Titan, this action is used on its turn if it has less than 25% hit points.

Description

As a last resort, initiate a countdown sequence that ends with Self-Detonation Self-Detonation.
