## Player Evaluation

IG-88 D is the final and most powerful IG, possessing an unnamed Lucrehulk-class Battleship capable of taking on any ship in the galaxy, with heavy and light armaments of lasers and ion cannons, as well as droid fighters, bombers, including the rare Aggressor Assault Fighter. What's more is that IG-88 D possesses tactical programming that surpasses his predecessors and even some of the greatest tacticians in the galaxy, possessing a 15% combat bonus to all units under its command. This bonus can be stacked on top of the capital ship, frigate, and fighter bonuses of IG-88 C, B, and A respectively, boosting all ships to a 25% combat bonus in combat. Unlike his predecessors though, he does not have a physical body, and does not possess a ground unit. All and all, IG-88 D should not be underestimated, as the cost to build it is well worth it when being able to boost the combat abilities of everyone, while providing long range fire support.

## Lore Description

Though many believe IG-88 to be just one bounty hunter droid upon many, he is in reality a part of a plot that many in the galaxy, including its fellow Vigo's of the Black Sun, are unaware of. In reality, he is creating an army that, with time, will overthrow the Black Sun and all other government and military organizations, which will come to be known as the Droid Revolution.

IG-88 D is the fourth out of the four IG-88 units who were given an incomplete strand of sentience programming that made them extremely hostile to living beings, leading to those killing their creators and being blending in amongst the galaxy. Eventually their leader, IG-88 A was able to gain influence in the Black Sun by collecting bounties on undesirable individuals, acting as advisor to the head Vigo, Prince Xizor, and recently, bolstering Black Sun's forces with old and repurposed droids found throughout the galaxy. This is all a ruse however, as the galaxy will find out soon enough. For now however, the droids that share their consciousness with IG-88 A, those being IG-88 B, C, and D, will leave their respective places as overseers of the reprogrammed droids works at Mechis III, Geonosis, and Hypori, to assist the Black Sun until their true plans are ready to be put into motion.

IG-88 D is the pinnacle of tactical knowledge and strategy, utilizing countless algorithms to decipher data from each battle, each ship class, each naval officer and their strategies and personality, to figure out their quality of "programming" as it calls it. Then, it probes for weaknesses, and exploits them on the smaller, tactical level, and on the wider strategic level. This allows it to utilize the fleets under its command to their fullest potential, and utilize greater creativity than other metallic or organic admirals. Unbeknownst to the Black Sun is included in this, with IG-88 D preparing for the future Droid Revolution. Despite its strategic ability, IG-88 D still struggles with understanding the political aspect of war, showing no remorse to non-combatants, as it sees them as future enemies to destroy. This leads to some situations that raise some eyebrows, even within the Black Sun itself. “Is this droid going mad with power?” some ask. “What happens if he turns against us?” These questions lead to rumors of such an occurrence happening, and has led to the other 8 Vigos becoming distrustful of IG-88 A and his other IG units, and this may spark tension in the future. For now however, the IG-88s provide the Black Sun a tactical edge that the Black Sun desperately needs in this time of war, and that cannot be dismissed until the end of the war. In order to facilitate the power necessary to articulate these algorithms in real time, IG-88 D has put his consciousness inside the coreship of an old Lucrehulk-class Battleship. Some compare IG-88 D to the likes of the Galactic Empire's Grand Admiral Thrawn or the Rebel Alliance's Admiral Ackbar, but only time will tell who will prevail.
