Thread: Combat Droids: Now this is a good idea...
Just I thought I came up with today...
Not so much what kind of droid, but what they can do.
Wouldn't it be cool if combat droids had special attack moves that could be player controlled! Better than that, wouldn't it be cool if DEs had like 10 or so different ones we could make and install into a combat droid at the time of unit creation. Kinda like a personality chip type kinda deal. And the higher the level combat droid the more different special attacks can be installed in them. Like maybe 1 SA for a basic probo, 3 for a ???, and like 5 for a droideka. This would make combat droids a bit more unique than the standard "Itdoes 50-55 dam @ 1.5 sec". Whatcha all think?
something like "Retreat", Hold Position", etc would be more tactical
even for all pets...

/agree
CHs have something like this under the proposed Ch changes. If we can build it, we can tell it what to do.
It would be cool if droids had a weapon systems optional component slot that would require a weapon-smith made item that would modify its base atk, damage and speed. Just like armor 5-6 (which needs to be fixed for gods sakebecause the only droids that can take it are non combat).
If HAM was a base figure dependent on the chasis used, modified by experimentation of structure components.
If to hit modifiers were based on experimentation of sensor suits.
Sorry i'm a drunk BH that trolls these boards because i'm rich and i want nice toys...
I refuse to use a creature.
