Spec Ops Droids Side Mod by Glitch25 replaces the stock CIS units with some dark grey/black droid reskins which includes the Droideka unit as well. Not many people reskin or make new models for the CIS units so it is nice to see some diversity. I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR MAKING THIS SIDE MOD. ALL CREDIT GOES TO GLITCH25 ALONG WITH ANYONE CREDITED IN THE README.
DESCRIPTION IS FROM THE README:
CIS: Special Operations Battle Droids (Background)
These Droids are the thoughest of the B1 Battle Droid line, fighting unwinnable wars and giving all they've got to end the Clone Wars in their favor. Their superior skill and higher intellect has earned them a well deserved spot in the Battle Droid army.
Fighting wars in space, on land, and in the harshest conditions imaginable they are able to triumph over the enemy force and complete their objective no matter the cost. They fight as a team knowing that it keeps them alive and functioning. They have lost many comrades over the years during the many battles they face but they continue to hope that one day they will be free from the chaos of war.
