The Vanguard-class droid uses it's shield to hold the front line of Metal Lord forces, taking fire as it returns fire with small weapons in the other hand.
There is a combat shield attached to the metal shield.
Strengths:
- Armored Shield - The Vanguard carries a personal shield to defend against oncoming fire. It also has a combat shield to strengthen it's defense.
- Adaptable - The Vanguard droid is rather adaptable in the case of being capable of wielding most weapons in the spare hand.
- EMP - While the personal shield is protected by the combat shield that can protect against EMP's, there is no combat shield on the droid itself. There is no shield, as a larger shield covering the droid would take power from the droid, which could lower it's combat efficiency.
- Rear Defense- The Vanguard droid is rather vulnerable against it's rear, toward the lower back.
The R-99 droid was designed by WD-334 with the aid of ARGH as a frontline defense droid, capable of holding it's own in a squad, protecting more vulnerable forces behind them and drawing fire while being also capable of sending small arms fire back with any weapon it has picked from the battlefield, or been equipped with at first.
It's personal shield has a combat shield attached, capable of defending against some EMP attacks, such as a single EMP attack. however, the droid is vulnerable in the lower rear of the back. A couple of shots can bring the Vanguard class down.
