Construction Materials
- Echani Graphite- Material as durable as Mandalorian Iron with weight somewhere between Phrik and Beskar, comes only in cylindrical format, perfect for hilts, shafts, battlestaves, and other polearm weaponry. Although Echani in origin, the Gados were able to replicate Graphite Fletching Facilities on Abregado due to HK's memories and knowledge of Echani Weaponry. Lightsaber resistant.
- Echani Graphite Cables- Strong, durable, and lightsaber-resistant cables for any weapon, utility, vehicle, or building construction, come in sizes from thin single-strand filaments to huge, thick, multi-strand bridge cables.

- Graphite-Reinforced Durasteel Plating- Vehicle, Ship, and Building armor plating made from Durasteel with its internal structure enhanced by the strong Graphite Reed formation. Perfect for heavy armor plating, it greatly reduces slashing, blunt, and large caliber-piercing damage such as large pieces of shrapnel, while partially reducing large-caliber energy weapon damage, while not affecting Durasteel's resistance to small-caliber piercing damage. Unusable in personal infantry armor.
- The Replicator-Series 3-D Printer- Revolutionary manufacturing and recycling system with ability to break down any material and either copy it or re-assemble molecules gathered from it into a new object. For example turning garbage into basic foodstuff or turning foodstuff into simpler war droids.

- HRD-2- The fruits of the New Beginning Project, these bodies are given only to trusted droids to be used as their new vessels to start a new life among the organics by blending in with them, becoming unrecognizable from a human. However only few droids are given those vessels, first they must prove they are trustworthy and will not use them for any nefarious purposes. The skeletons of these droids are lightsaber resistant, they can possess in-built weaponry and innate limited shape-shifting abilities due to plate-shifting mechanisms in their bodies and faces.
- Iron Legionnaire Droid Vessel and Drone- Designed to reinforce the ranks of Iron Company and provide for droid inhabitants of Abregado a way of supporting the planet militarily without risking their lives completely, these mechanized infantry models bare latest of technological tricks and techniques the Gados have learned with their time under HK's regime. Classified as heavy infantry on their own, these machines not only wield Duranium, Durasteel, and Abregado Graphite used in building their vessels but also wear the heavy variants of Protectorate's Defense Power Armor. These units have been described as "hard to deactivate" time and time again for a good reason, biggest weakness, however, is the stupidity of their innate programming, the GaDOS, requiring a copy of other droid's programming to be used for any more advanced tasks. As a result most of these machines are used as common grunts rather than for specializations like heavy weapons duty, sniper support, or engineering.
- LK-Droids Series- The Lady Killer droids are advanced protocol and companion models utilizing sophisticated Human Replica Droids designs in order to easily blend in with the organics.

It can be used to access the HoloZinema Network and ARHVN programming in areas outside of their coverage with higher quality as well as broadcast your own programming such as warning about pirate raids of patrols.

They can reach the speed of 80 km/h for prolonged time and carry an armored rider, in full charge their large beak can pierce armor of rating 1-7, just by swinging it they can pierce 1-4 rating, just as their claws can pierce 1-4 rating with a good kick. They are very much walking spears. Warning: as pack animals, at least two specimen are recommended for purchase if they are bought adult.
- Nocur the Forest Kings- These highly aggressive creatures have a mix of ursine and owl traits. They are Owlbears with limited lightsaber and energy damage resistance due to oils their feathers produce. When clawing at enemy they can slash through armor of rating 1-4, however, they can also use their large meaty paws as spiked maces or pick-axes, penetrating armor 1-6 by piercing it with their claws. Their beaks can crush armor with rating 1-8 by putting steady pressure on it over time, much like crushgaunts or nutcrackers are able to crack harder material. Their strong hide corresponds to armor of rating 4-5, and they are able to swivel their head in 270 degrees, meaning they can look behind themselves or upside down. Warning: Adult Nocur are highly aggressive and it is highly recommended to raise them from eggs, unless proper skills are present.

- Whips of Rae (15,000 Credits)- Large, 4 meter-long whips made from Echani Graphite Wires, lightsaber-resistant, they can provide electro-shocks, that cause their body to glow with blue, electric light, used for stunning attacks or lethal strikes that can rip or burn a body apart, while their strand Graphite ends can go through armor of up to rating 6 with a single good slash, anything higher requires multiple strikes.
