Ok, here are my suggestions, please leave any comments, additions, gripes, whatever.
1. Change from 3 armor modules to 1, or make them stackable like intended.
2. Adv Chassis and Standard Deed have optional spot for a rare loot item (such as a clear crystal or something) that is used to create an internal natural storage compartment with an itemstorage of 25-50 based on the condition of the loot item.
3. To counter any type of problems this may cause, swap the duranium steel count with the metal count making it require 750 duranium steel, and change the "any" steel requirement to something like nutronium steel, thus giving it a total of 3 named resource steels to make the droid.
4. As with all droids, make the BASE paint job stick.
Thats about all i can think of right now, still pissed that i typed out a huge post, board timed out on me, and i lost it all....
please leave your comments suggestions, and instructions on how the hell to edit my own posts.

Armor is moot, since its never gonna do combat anyway. I like the 'load lifter so it should have more item storage' idea though.
Or they can just revamp it and make it good for power/resource/factory crate runs on facs and harvs.
It certainly is costly enough for sucha task (adv maint module?)

Or.. If we could mount the droid like a creature mount or vehicle, just sit on one of the droid's arms, and a buddy or a lot of items could sit on the other!

I think a BLL should be used for something that they look like they have been designed for.
I would be happy if BLLs could be used for construction purposes or possibly for landscaping within the swg world. Basically, BLLs could be used to flatten out an elevated terrain to allow for placement of a structure that requires the same elevation throughout.
In this sense, the added function of a BLL would be similar to that of a bulldozer. Depending on how this is integrated, this aspect could also be applied for combat within the galactic civil war whereas the added capabilitywould make aBLL an essential tool inattacking or perhaps demolishing faction-based structures such as turrets, minefields, dishes, and scanners.

In my humble opinion I think, as with all droids, Binary Load lifters should be highly customizable. Binary Load Lifters should be capable as a combat class, for example instead of those liffter arms you can attach some sort of gatling lasers or some sort of flame thrower or grenade launcher like what a trapper droid does.

I think the best idea I've seen so far is doing factory/harvester runs. It would be nice to send out a bll to all your stuff and have it come back with resources/goods. Of course, it would cost a lot in batteries, or you could limit it to the number of factories/harvesters it could go to, say 3. I don't see it as a combat droid, just let us make combat droids and it will be all good. Maybe if it had an architecture bonus built in, that would be good.
