Droid release coming very soon!

[HR-Zoz]

Attention all techies (and those about to become insanely jealous of them):

The droid system is nearly ready for alpha release!

Following are some specifics:

---only one model, the air drone, will be available, and for $15,000.
---only Technicians of level 6 or higher may obtain a droid.
---the air drone comes with basic core equipment, higher level equipment will be gradually released as more techs reach higher skill levels.
---three personality chip (active and passive, for 6 total) archetypes will be available upon release. More general ones will come in the future, and very possibly will be customizeable via merchants in the future. Expect this to be a wallet-breaking procedure.
---"skins" (general droid appearance) are basic metallic, with more basic types coming very soon. Customizeable versions (shop-made, cheap; and merchant-made, not nearly as expensive as personality chips) will be available in the future
---most technical (skill bonus) and espionage (cloaking, locating) equipment is already available, with a few more to gradually come out.
---combat mode is disabled, along with the sales of droid combat equipment. This will most likely change when we move.
---roughly 12 commands currently exist, definitely with more to come.
---all equipment in the shop may be purchased and installed regardless of skill. However, once better core equipment is released, some technical and espionage equipment may then require a level or skill requirement to install.

Excited? Me too
