==Characteristics==
Instead of using blasters, flame battle droids used flame jets that could not be blocked by a Jedi's lightsaber. A large backpack was attached to the droids that contained the necessary flammable gases. They had tan plating, and were distinguished from their B1-Series battle droid cousins by the red coloration of the droid's shoulder plates. They were programmed to terrorize innocent civilians and burn down homes, crops, and municipal buildings to destroy morale. Another variant of the flame battle droid existed; the other variant featured blue markings and carried a different type of flamethrower.Star Wars: Obi-Wan
