STRENGTHS

• Boarding Strength: Much like the older iteration of the Dark NovaTroppers, The MK. II can perform many of the same actions. Used as a front-line operations droid deployed alongside other Nova-Class Troopers in which can operate as the brute, tank like application of trooper placements. Able to more easily wield larger weaponry, or heavier weapons with ease. A Squad Clearing Advanced Droid Class in which can be an Elite Guard unit, Special Operations, Boarding operations, or even a limited capacity for Stealth operations.
• Anti-Force User: As with the utilization of Ysalamiri Cradles, and being flash trained with programming systems to fight not just Sith or Jedi, but force users in general, it can easily be used against Force User individuals, or can aid the Nova Class that is accompanying the droid in combat against such individuals.

WEAKNESSES

• Anti-Stealth: Due to the size and stature of these boarding droids, it is very unlikely they will be able to use stealth. While they can be used in limited capacities of just simply. "Walking slower and crouched" there is not much that will allow them to be masters of it. They can still be found on sensors, and the like.
• No Grey Area: As with any soldier that has sentience, they can choose many options in which to further their goal. However, the Dark Novatroopers are limited in this capacity. If told to attack people on the other side of a wall, they will attempt everything to go through the wall, rather than try to find a way around it unless given specific instruction to do so.

DESCRIPTION
The newest iteration of Nova-Class Troopers being utilized as a Special Operations force, and Elite guard within the New Imperial Order has brought about enough action, plenty of battles under their belt, and given credence to how effective they can be in the field. With the newly acquired funds in which the Nova Troopers can expand their arsenal for their uses, The Dark Novatroopers were reactivated and modified to a high degree in which would allow a walking tank of a droid be the brute force to any company, or Squad within the Nova-Class.

Using heavily armored chassis, larger weaponry that would be difficult for Near-Humans typical of the Nova-Class to use, provide a mobile form of a "Tank," or Aiding unit to provide back up, cover fire, or to be a forward positioned droid that will prevent the loss of life for the Nova troopers.

So let's pull up some subs that you don't have permission to use from what I can see.
You need permission for these x, x, x, x, x,
This is Sith Empire only x

Alright so balance wise
Limited -2
Very Heavy -2
Large +1
Very High +2
High +1
Very High +2
High +1
High +1
Very Low -2
Overall balance is +2, so you are two ratings over the balance. Up to you what you do.

Added Acid at a "Very Low" Rating to provide balance in the rating systems.

Second, All of the items that are linked have been provided to the NIO Via REC. LINKS HERE & HERE. I have also removed the smart launcher as I cannot find where the approval is for the usage by the NIO other than the Writer Kor Vexen giving permission via Discord to use his submissions.

So in this case, this is what permissions are for. So if you could add those and a picture link of Kor Vexen giving you guys permission to all his gear in the permissions field we can move ahead with this as normal.

However I have yet to see you having permission for the wrist rockets as the 2 links you have given me don't contain the purchase of the wrist rockets. As well as that the smart launcher is locked to TSE only which means you can't use it regardless.

I have already removed the smart-launcher.

I have added the permissions to use all other materials within the submission.

Please do let me know if there is anything else I may have missed though! I tried to do a second read through.
