______________________________________________________________

Character Bio - - B1 battle droids were battle droids that made up the backbone of the Trade Federation Droid Army and the Separatist Droid Army. Often called "Clankers" by Galactic Republic clone troopers, they were the successor of both the HKB-3 hunter-killer droid and the OOM-series battle droid.B1s were perhaps the most numerous—and expendable—soldiers in galactic history, and, unlike most organic soldiers, they were capable of action in hostile environments like underwater or in space. They were designed, for the most part, to defeat their enemies through sheer numbers, not through their ability to think (they were very vulnerable to tricks) and utilize combat skills (unlike clone troopers).

When an opponent moves a B1 Battle Droid you control with a special ability, you must roll a single attack die. If a skull is rolled, destroy that B1 Battle Droid.

I'm very surprised that no-one has any bonuses for drones. It feels like something an Utgar character would have been given a long while ago. I gotta get these guys, their start zone expansion power sounds like a lot of fun.

Wrong thread. I hate posting in my phone.

What is the sweet spot on number of squads for these guys? 4x? 5x?

Minimum 3-4 squads. I've ran up to 10 squads at once and it was quite fun. With B1s, the more the merrier
