A friend came into a dozen or so cybermen. Anyone got suggestions on how to
stat these for SG or FMAS?
I had thought good armour (D12). But beyond that, and the fact they're slow
(move as encumbered), I can't actually recall what they could or couldn't do.
(A wee while since I saw the Good Doctor).
Thoughts?
Oh, and anyone want to suggest to me how a star spanning race can fail to be
capable of
negotiating stairs? (Daleks) :) <There are
some awful nice, but awful expensive 25mm Daleks that I forsee appearing in
FMAS and SG on my table one day soon if my friend keeps up his shopping>

Anti-gravity, the bottom of the dalek glows and it rises up :) This was

Although the fourth Doctor, Tom Baker did taunt a dalek about it's inability
to climb up things in DESTINY OF THE DALEKS.

As Derk points out the Cybermen went down hill as the series progressed. So it
depends on where in the series you wish to model them.
One of things that you should do, is have rules for mind-controlled
drones as mind control figured heavily in many of the Cybermen episodes
(IIRC). Perhaps add several squads of mind controlled human troops to the
Cybermen forces (treat as Untrained if civilian or Green if mind controlled
soldiers). If they panic, they have broken the mind control, but are pretty
worthless to the human forces as well. And perhaps a confdence test to fire on
the mind controlled soldiers (shoot our buddies?!?!).
