Droid Engineer Archive

Another thread got me thinking about this issue, and so I thought tofind out what most of you prefer.

The droid type determines the specific modules/jobs the droid can perform?

or

The current system where the droid type is basically only for looks, and any module/job can be used?

I prefer the first option, where as it does leave alot less customization, it brings the more starwars feel.

Where we have the Binary Load Lifter carry things(storage module). The Surgical droid provide medical assistance(med module), etc etc...

Ofcourse there doesnt have to be only one droid allowed to do one job, like r2's could be data storage, repair, and crafting? But the general idea being an MSE droid wouldnt be allowed to provide medical assistance or carry more than one small item?(used more like a delivery bot ) Even lvl of module should be limited. Where as a repair module on an r5 couldnt be greater than 2, an r2 could have a lvl 4 repair module.

Ofcourse more droid types and droid functions should be added to the existing ones, but Id like to see the droid type actually determine more than appearance. Anyways, how do the rest of you feel?
