    I always thought the Aqua battle droids were one of the most creative way to get around the whole “droids and water don’t mix”

    I have always felt like these things were more like Terminator Models than battle droids… They just have that FEEL to them!

    Aquatic warfare is oh so ever underused in sci-fi. Same with underground exploration... can't blame them, they feel way too confined compared to the air and the cosmos
    Also, what can they say, the seas are way too mundane and arguably easily explorable (if slightly) in reality. Space, on the other hand, has a tinge of romance and epicness due to its current exclusivity.

    These droids really sucked when on land. But at sea they were absolutely terrifying and I love them. I wish we could see more battles on aquatic worlds like perhaps Manaan so we could see more of these amazing and terrifying droids.

    It makes even more sense to let haor chall build the aqua droid when you think about what the vulture droid's "special ability" is: it can fight in the air and on the ground. I think they had smiliar thoughts with the aqua droids as it would be less usefull if it was only able to be deployed underwater, and my best example for that is the battle of kamino. They were used both underwater and on "land", and while they werent as good on land, they were still a bit better then b1s (i assume).

    I fell in love with these the second I saw them. They felt more like a purpouse built killing machine. The b1s are decent fodder but are used in everytbing from bridge crew to firefighters to farming.
    The b2s are terrifying and durable but incredibly slow and weak to the enviroment.
    But the aqua droids? They look streamlined but also bulky enough to take some punishment. The propeller feet, the blaster arm... it all feels so much more intimidating.

    When I first saw these Droids in Season 3 of the Clone Wars during the Battle of Kamino, I thought they were so awesome. Wish we saw more of them.
    Also, would you consider doing a video on the Republic's Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery Walkers? Because those things were cool in the First Battle of Genosis and the Battle of Munnalist.

    Aqua droids are absolutely terrifying. Good luck fighting it hand to hand underwater. The thing is literally a B2 but much more scarier and faster. A single one can easily take out 4 clones in rapid succession if it caught them by surprise.
