Just a thought, could the Load Lifter droids actually be used as a Hand to Hand combat model, they have tremendous strength, lots of HP but very slow. Just got done watching Aliens and the cargo lifter in the movie fought well, why can't our Load lifters do the same thing. Just a thought.

Doesn't it stand to reason that a Binary Load Lifter Droid be able to carry heavy loads? Why then doesn't this Droid have more storage modules than the average droid....common sense would seem to dictate that this machine should serve its purpose as a beast of burdon; carrying excess cargo or serving as a storage compartment~give the thing the option to have 25 storage units.

Only 25? So what your saying is that a huge droid such as the Binary can carry "Less" then a normal person? This thing should be at least euqal to or more then a normal person (50)

I agree, 50 would be a much better number!...I threw out 25 as a safe "nerf-proof" arbitrary number. It only makes sense to have a droid (the Load Lifter Droid) capable of servicing players by carying large quanties of items. Experience talking, I really could have used a big "Moving Truck" like machine everytime I change my resident planet...its amazing how much junk one can accumalate, regardless of their proffesion.

Its a data storage problem. With 5 droids in data pad. Or even more if they ever get to increasing the number alowed in data pad. even 25 would be allowing 125 or more items to be stored in droids. Maby we could get away with 15 as the cap on BLLs.
Probly the solution is to have a total droid storage cap. Like your inventory caps the total you can put into varios packs/pockets you have.
Nuther thing BLLs could do is hold 'heavy modules' like architect craft styations and power cores, for example.
But in any case BLLs NEED to do more than hold Zero and One, standard modules.
The only thing I can think of why they do this, is because they fear people putting multiple combat modules in one. The BLLs do have more HAM than Probots.
