CLONE WARS TACTICAL DROID SOFTWARE

In terms of strategy, it's simple, but like army ants, the B1 battle droid used it quite effectively. Say what you like about the supposedly idiotic B1 battle droid in the field, they were able to keep a rain of blaster fire on the enemy, suppressing their movement, tactics and their fire, allowing more potent droids the opportunity to get close, tear into the defenders and simply allow the B1s to pour through any hole created. Even adding Jedi to a defending force was often no guarantee of the defenders surviving. If B1 and other droids arrived in the proper numbers, it would take a force with a significantly greater power profile to stop their advance. In battle with living enemies, the B1 would be a terrible foe, if for no other reason, their ability to simply absorb damage and continue to press forward. What the B1 battle droid lacked in brainpower, they made up for in numerical superiority. They didn't need to be particularly bright, their machine programming was more than adequate for most of their missions and could be upgraded over time.

They had leaders, handlers, or control software to direct their movements in whatever terrain they found themselves in.Д«1 battle droids were designed to respond to environmental feedback (other troops, terrain and whatever weapons they had at hand) toward the destruction of their enemies. Was a lack of brainpower a handicap to the B1?Д«1 battle droids did not NEED to think, and they weren't INITIALLY designed to think. Like any other specialized force, if supported properly, in this case by thousands of B1, such specialist droids could be used to devastating effect against enemy troops. Super Battle Droids and Droidikas were far more powerful, adaptable, and intelligent. To supplement their capacity, Super Battle Droids were created.

Not every B1 Battle Droid was erratic, some through better programming were capable of being leaders, commanders or even commando droids. The B1's role in combat was to keep blaster fire in the air, absorb damage and buffer incoming fire until more powerful and dangerous droids could be deployed.ДЄfter the battle of Naboo, control ships were considered problematic and potentially vulnerable so B1s were forced into semi-autonomy which caused them to behave erratically. As a matter of fact, they were originally designed to be coordinated by a Droid Control Ship which would coordinate and direct their strategy, fire patterns and overall tactical movement. B1 battle droids are less intelligent because they didn't need to be smart, nor were they designed to be.
