- Auxiliary System -
+ There and Gone + Due to the small size, streamline shape and addition of maneuvering jets, the droid vessel is alarmingly fast and agile.
+ R-UR4 Drone + The droid starship comes equipped with a separate deployable drone that repairs hulls and replenishes shield to a degree.
+ Baffled and Back Again + While not completely hidden, the systems equipped make the vessel difficult to detect at longer ranges leaving a minimal ion trail, and greatly diminishing its energy and sound profile.
+ Quicker Separate Processors + The addition of the GwendoLyn chips allows each fighter to process incoming information with tremendous speed.
+ Signal Scrambled + The backbone of this droid starship, the signal scrambler is meant to make the small ship as difficult to detect as possible given it disrupts the location process with alarming ease.
- No Fighting Back - With no offensive or defensive weapons to speak of, the droid ship is little more than a floating target when found.
- Survivability - The droid starships are designed as throwaways, meaning they are readily destroyed with a little concentrated fire.
- Ion/EMP - A dedicated burst will force these drones into a shutdown state until enabled either remotely, or directly.
- Choices Choices - These droid starships are independent sensor buoys with wings, and might make mistakenly wander too close to an enemy or other danger in an attempt to gain further data.
- Processing Speed - Regardless of the capability to process information quickly, the information provided might not be entirely relevant to a fight and clutter up systems.
Having seen the sensor buoy system at work through previous encounters, Niki felt the need to advance the system a bit and dedicate a little time into the thought. Coming out of the process with a healthy respect for sensor systems and the officers designated to them, she produced a droid starship that was little more than a sensor buoy with wings and half a brain. She put a final piece into the puzzle by shoving a smaller support drone into the thing, making it a little more useful when not actively providing data on the battlefield.
