[SIZE=9pt]Tactical Prowess Chip[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]The Tactical Prowess Chip gives the once stupid droids basic combat instincts, such as taking cover, sprinting, and basic combat tactics instead of just ‘march and fire’[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]When Dresden M’koor gained office in his family’s company, he knew what had to be done. The Techno Union was known for it’s droid manufacturing, more particularly some of the B model battle droids, however, the Separatists stopped at the B8. He needed an iconic droid that could be the ‘poster boy’ for the N.T.U. So, he took the design of the B1 battle droid, modernized it a bit, and modeled it similarly after his VT-1 armor that was also going to be sold, two perfect icons for his company.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Strengths[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Cheap: The B9 goes back to its ancestor the B1’s roots and is incredibly cheap and easy to produce and can be produced easily in the hundreds of thousands[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Overwhelming Power: The B9’s primary tactic is to overwhelm its foes with sheer numbers (Which it can do very well), this mixed with basic military tactics such as pincer movements and trench warfare leads to it being a dangerous foe[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Strong Salvage the Weak: The B9s are also programed with basic self-repair initiatives, so if an arm or a leg is blown off, they’ll salvage the limb from a fallen comrade or from a worst off droid than themselves. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Simpleton: The Droid has basic tactics, but that's about as far as it’s intelligence goes.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]What’s Security?: These droids are rather easy to hack, although once they are they are hunted down by their nearby brethren.[/SIZE]
Lightly Armored: Similar to their B1 ancestors, the B9 is lightly armored, encased with a duraplast armor, which is no where near as efficient as durasteel armors most combat droids have.
