Armaments:
 


2 60cm Cortosis-weave Blades mounted in the forearms, when used gets pushed out at an angle from the wrist, they can not be removed without it removing it's hands first as they are there to help him defend against Lightsaber strikes. (Look at Link in Other to see how they are mounted, instead of 3 'hooks' it's 1 blade)



2 Cortosis-weave Vibroblades mounted at its sides which is its main weapon.

1 Blaster Rifle for ranged encounters.

Other Equipment:
 

Universal Computer Connection: Allows the Android to connect to almost every computer type available. The Android will then upload its AI into the target and can control it from there. However it leaves the Android vulnerable to physical attacks as it cannot retaliate whilst connected to a computer. To prevent Malware and security systems from locking it out it's protected by numerous firewalls along with an array of hacking tools to breach even the toughest locks on computers.

If the body is destroyed whilst the AI is connected, the AI will be able to survive inside what it was connected to. 

Heat Cameras: Can detect heat signatures at a longer distance as well as through certain wall types at a close distance. 6x Zoom

Night Vision Cameras: Can use these to gain near perfect night vision and is deactivated once the light pass a certain level. 6x Zoom


Sound Detection: Can detect and isolate sound sources within hearing distance, can lock onto a certain type of sound, takes some focus.

Okay, I was asked to pop in on this app so here I am


Class name:

M.Ap 01.03 - Military Assassin Prototype Mark I Version III

The abbreviation doesn't make a ton of sense. Why would Military get it's own period but assassin and prototype have to share space. Also aren't mark and version the same thing?

Stock/custom : I find it very strange that a large scale droid manufacturer would build an anti sith bot and not mass produce it.

Weight seems a little low for a durasteel plated robot with two power sources and 4 bladed weapons

Power source : MK4 pwer cells aren't on the wookipedia, so how are they different from standard power cells

Other :

2 Wrist mounted blades which eject backwards towards shoulders.

I am unsure how this works. Do the blades go from the wrist, down the length of the arm and out the elbow? If so, how does he bend his arms before they are deployed?

Armaments :

2 60cm Phrik Blades mounted in the forearms, when used gets pushed out at an angle from the wrist,

Once again vague, which angle do they jut out of? Also phrik is very, very expensive. It would make a lot more sense from a business standpoint to make them cortosis weave. Same results but cheaper.

2 Cortosis-weave Vibroblades mounted at it's back. To pull them out it has to move the hands up past its shoulders to pull out the two swords

*edited because I am bad at reading* It's super hard for bipedal humanoid shaped things to unsheathe things off their back with out freakishly long arms. Especially if they are mounted to the back.

Why no ranged weaponry? You've made a very expensive robot that can be killed by anyone with a gun. 2 mm plating isn't going to stop very much blaster fire. It seems designed to kill sith who are alone in a broom closet

Other equipment :

Universal Computer Connection: Allows the Android to connect to almost every computer type available. The Android will then upload its AI into the target and can control it from there.

Is he able to operate his main combat platform while controlling nearly any computer he can connect to? How many computers can he manhandle at a time? Also it seems a major oversight to allow universal adaptability and have no anti cyber warfare suites. (How is connecting to computers by the by?)

Night Vision Cameras: Can use these to gain perfect night vision and is deactivated once the light pass a certain level. 6x Zoom

Perfect night vision? Like in total darkness? Or just perfect visuals in low light conditions? Because the Night Goggles seem to work similar to ours do, so not in perfect darkness.

Overall the universal computer connection is problematic. It's either the most powerful thing in the universe till we glue 3 death stars together or it'll get you flooded with malware the first time you try to cheat your way out of paying a subway toll. Also you probably should have a heuristic processor if you plan to be truly sentient

Overall: I find it very strange that a big name in droids would drop so many man hours into this very expensive display model. It's a niche piece with limited use and some hardware problems.

Any questions? Or perhaps clarifications? Hit me back here, I'll be watching

Probably because it's super-duper expensive. Also, it's probably a prototype (you didn't think that they could actually make a droid that can take on a Sith in one-on-one melee, did you?)

xnay on the power cells comment, since they are used in a previous app  .  

[Danee]

Changes have been made.

Looks quite a bit better. I think it's ready for a color better than mine

I feel like I should say something witty about robots, but I'm drawing a blank.
