Han said It must have had a self-destruct, I didn't hit it that hard. Hardly a glowing comment on it's combat ability.

I agree that it is just opinions, but I will ask this.
If we don't get any new chasis, which Droid do we currently have that you think should be our top combatent?
Well apart from the fact I said you should get new droids in addition to the categorisations (creating the game rules comes before adding the extra content though), what are the choices? I wanted someone to give me a full list of the droids and a description if they are the more obscure ones.

Well, the problem with adding droids from the first 3 movies (I-III)is that they aren't even in the next 3 (IV-VI) even though a lot of us would like to see these droids in the game. I guess it doesn't matter anymore though since GCW is kind of a forgotten thought when it comes to this game. I mean, they're even adding a droid in ToOW that's not been around SW in millenia! So I guess it wouldn't matter to see the droideka and battle droids in the game. But I do agree that changes must be made to make the droids more intricate and diverse in use.

SOE have the capacity to make new droids I'm sure. That's why they have concept artists

Just found this little bit of info on Wookieepedia (Star Wars section of wikipedia.org). I've put the droids already in-game to the side.
Degrees of Droids
Droids are divided into five basic "degrees."
First-degree: Capable of creative, complicated thought. Used in medical fields, or the sciences. (like Surgical droids)
Second-degree: Technical droids. Probe droids and the like also fit in this category. (like Probe droids, DZ70, R-series, LE Repair droid)
Third-degree: Social interaction droids, for example protocol droids. (kinda redundant, but like Protocol droids)
Fourth-degree: Security or military droids. They are often capable of harming sentients, and so are strictly regulated. (like MSE droids, combat droids)
Fifth-degree: Menial labor droids. (like Binary Load Lifters, Power droids, WED Treadwell)
Of course, each droid can have different module put in it to allow it to do different things, I'm using pretty much using the design of each droid to say which degree it would be in.
I just thought I'd post this.

I would like to see a craftable droideka that was like a combat level 40 or so, nothing out of hand, maybe make it a de quest for the schematic or something.
