Had an idea today, what about combat droids that can be donated to faction bases for added protection? You would have to buy a droid control antenna from a faction recruiter which you then donate to the base, this determines the number of droids the base can control. Then just donate the combat droid deeds the way you would mines etc, they then begin a search and destroy programme around the base. Just an idea.......

Very nice idea Sd, the Devs have alluded to the fact that we may have the option to add droids to the GCW in
the future, but currently there is a problem with combat balancing and how more powerful droids will fit into
the overall scheme of the game.....we're kinda stalled at the moment with regard to more powerful combat droids.
Hopefully though when the GCW revamp comes Droids will be introduced in a more meaningful way. But all in all
I really like your idea, for what it's worth...

Yea, i just figured it was a way of giving you guys the chance to make some powerful combat droids without getting into the realms of droid handler careers etc etc. The Droid control antenna could also be placed anywhere in a player city, with the droids on a patrol in the immediate vicinity. Could have armorsmiths and weaponsmiths involved in the construction too, making droid specific parts for DE's.
