STRENGTHS
- Elemental Assistance >
- The B4-Series Battle Droid is engineered to function seamlessly across various environments without compromising its combat capabilities, enabling their deployment on any planet or battlefield with minimal constraints.
- Many Models for Deployment >
- The B4-Series Battle Droid comes in various versions, each tailored for specific battlefield tasks. This not only saves money on training organic troops for those roles but also provides the flexibility to select the most suitable units for deployment. The remaining variants can then be saved for future battles.
- Strengths in Numbers >
- The B4-Series Battle Droid was specially designed to participate in coordinated swarm assaults on an enemy stronghold or defensive line. This strategy aims to either overpower the enemy or divert their attention, creating opportunities for more versatile troops to retreat or launch attacks in different parts of the siege.
- Extreme Energy Resistance >
- The B4-Series Battle Droid is armed with robust armor, both heavy and reflective, enabling it to withstand blaster rounds. This gives them a strategic edge, as blaster weaponry remains the primary choice for direct combat in the galaxy.
- Heavier Firepower >
- The B4-Series Battle Droid was created without heavy weaponry in mind, even though it boasts strong armor. Their primary function is to flood the battlefield with sheer numbers rather than using strategic maneuvers. Despite being cost-effective to produce, they often find themselves at a disadvantage during prolonged combat.
- EMP/ION >
- The B4-Series Battle Droid is particularly vulnerable to EMP/ION Weaponry as it can shut them down completely.
In the vast expanse of the galaxy, tensions have been escalating rapidly. To keep up with the ever-growing challenges, the Trade Federation's Merchant Fleet and Corporate Armies underwent a revolutionary transformation in 900 ABY.
This transformation came in the form of the B4-Series Battle Droid, an innovative prototype designed by a brilliant team of inventors and scientists working for the Trade Federation Engineering Core. The Engineering Core toiled away in secrecy within the hidden droid factories scattered around the galaxy on the orders of the Director Rulonom Laborr , repurposing older droid variants such as the Scrapper-Series Battle Droid for use in the new prototype.
The B4-Series was specifically crafted to replace the aging B1 and B2 Battle Droids, which had faithfully served the Trade Federation for decades, despite the chaos that prevailed in the Current Chaos Timeline.
Coming standard equipped with robust armor and reflective armor in order to survive in combat with even the best infantry that the enemy can bring to the front, although mostly relying on mass swarming tactics in order to achieve victory.
