Droid Engineer Archive

I see the sticky's above, but to be honest I'm not clear on which one would be best to add this input to. Some of which I've seen before.

1. Slicing Module - Not in the smuggler enhancing sense (although I do like that also), but in the R2-D2's ability to crack open obstacles sort of way. It would be nice for when I find a container that is locked, to be able to have my droid pull an R2-D2 and crack it open (portable can-opener!).

2. Assassin Droids - IG-88 was an assassin droid. It would be really cool if it didn't come with any built in weapon mods, but instead had to be equiped with a pistol or carbine weapon. I like it more, because I'd like to have a humaniod combat droid that could hold a personality chip. Besides, then an additional personality chip could be added - psychopath.

3. Customization Module - instead of having to carry around a customization kit (either droid or vehicle), it would be neat to have a droid that could fill the function. To customize, you pull the droid out, then target the item to be customized, and zap, it expends a customization charge that the droid has. The droid could be recharged by dropping a customization lit on it, or perhaps by simply chewing through batteries by needing a recharge every 4 or 5 customizations. Droids were always seen around equipment, this would give a nice added way to show that interaction of repair/modification.

4. Vehicle Repair Module - stuck out in the middle of Yavin 4? No civilization with in kilometers? Vehicle disabled? Well pull out your handy-dandy repair droid. Another common sense application from watching the number of droids involved in aiding in vehicle (pod-racer) and starship repairs. To keep this from creating immortal vehicles, simply have it lower the overall durability of the vehicle by a percentage (10% or 200 points or whatever).

5. Psychopath/Warped Personality Chip - see # 2 above. Command = follow me (droid responds "Feeling lucky punk?") Command = Guard (droid responds "No one hurts you but me!")

6. Rude Personality Chip - Empire Strikes Back - C3PO meets the rude model that responded "E Chu Ta".

7. LIN-V8M - Armored military droid that specializes in laying mines - from the Star Wars card game that was created by Decipher Inc. Example is the black "domed" looking droid that buzzes around like a MSE droid.

8. R1 droid - old model astromech droid, still used on captial starships and large freighters - from the Star Wars card game - example is the black "helmet" droid that can be briefly seen in A New Hope when R2-D2 and C3PO are by the Sand Crawler.

9. FX-10 - standard medical droid used by Imperial field units - from the Star Wars card game - it's not a humaniod droid, more of a probot head on top of an R-style body with multiple arms that extend from it's side. Ugly, but cool at the same time.

10 - 5D6-RA-7 - A protocol droid class, it's the black protocol droid with the large "bug eyes" that is on either the Death Star or one of the Star Destroyers - the specific model name I got from the Star Wars card game - the card game identified this specific droid as also being a spy for the ISB. Could fit nicely with the proposed spy module I saw somewhere.

11 - CZ communications droid - from the Star Wars card game - it's the ugly looking protocol droid that seems to have somewhat of a snout - can be seen in Return of the Jedi, in Jabba's droid sweat-shop area where R2 and C3PO are taken to receive their service assignments.

Just some things I think could help add usefullness, variety, and more of a Star Wars aura.
