| Trade Federation Doldur Sector Forces
Note that the Majority of the Doldur Sector worlds close to the Trade Route would be Trade Federation peons, such as Therenor and Geridard which serves as the home of many retired officers of the TF.
Doldur HQ
Many Corporations on Doldur owned by the Trade Federation but their tame leader means they don't require much planetside. As a public show of their support a Golan I station is posted here.
Druckenwell Garrison
A small number of droids guarding factories etc belonging to the TF and TU.
Linuri Garrison Linuri is a direct client state of the Techno Union and is dominated by a number of Trade Federation subsidary companies such as Baktoid. The ground control of the world is run by the Techno Union but a TDF Light Duty Orbital Station would be there, alongside the Trade Federation Prison (same as this design, weapons never specified but say 12 Point Defense Lasers, 8 Quad Turbolaser cannons)
1 Auxillia-class Pursuit Corvette (this ships stats as said elsewhere) acts as guardian of the prison, in the command of a TDF space officer.
Geridad Training Force A whole continent on Geridad would be set aside as a training area for the TDF, which also acts as a picket for the old people. Set aside as the main Mid Rim training center for TDF expected to ship off Rimwards and providing bespoke final infantry training.
At any one time normally 12,000 Trade Defense Force Troopers would be training.
In the next month (since the announcement of flirtation by Druckenwell with Mandos and Manda was exposed, the number of TDF trained there would move up to a standing number of 60,000.
Plus for "training purposes" the following would additionally now be present as standard, allowing a variety of training (for landing in vehicles, fighting armor and having droids to play "enemy" forces)
500 SD-6 Infantry Droids
30,000 HKB-3 hunter-killer droid
100 QOM Droid Tank Mk2
200 QOM Droid Tank Mk 1
3 Hardcell-class Transports (refitted for passengers)
3 Diamond-class Cruisers (all but 1 refitted for passengers)
In orbit there would be:
1 Lucrehulk-class Core Ship and 1 Munifex-class Frigate would be located here but under the command of a space unit of the TDF not Johannes.

| I APPROVE of everything right up to the point where we get into the numbers of infantry droids (with the exception of the Auxxilia-class pursuit corvette, which I vote to DENY until such time as there's a post here on Legends I can refer to for statistics and an image of the ship).
Before getting into the droid numbers, I'd like to hear your thoughts on where the Trade Federation stands currently on large, standing armies of droids. These 30,000 droids are based on Geridard without even a pretense of being ship-based for defense against boarding, which I thought was the Federation's M.O. during this time period. It was my understanding that the Trade Federation having large, standing armies was an alarming development on Coruscant in the 40's and 30's BBY, and indeed was one of the precipitating reasons for Valorum's taxation of the trade routes. The reason I ask you to clarify this is because I know you're probably the best-informed on this, having already studied the material.

| Well, my thought was that you need to train the TDF somewhere? The TDF is documented as having rather large detachments and it seems like say for Brigade and Division level training droids are the best "enemy" to fight because you can make an exercise o as planned.
The TDF mostly do seem to serve as marines but they also garrison TDF ground bases and TF facilities in general, as I recall.
So it's not an army, it's a training tool, as part of a training facility which includes miles of simulated starship corridors, sewers, hangars etc. I think a droid army would be unprecedented, but droids as the opposition in training exercises (not armed with anything lethal right now) wouldn't shock anyone.

| Well for that specific use, I'm prepared to approve of all 30,000. Would they be put to any other use, though? I think you'd agree that were the Trade Federation to actually field this many droids outside of Geridard, a world that we're assuming is basically owned by the Trade Federation, it'd be a major upset of the canon. If I have your assurance these are only for training purposes on Geridard and won't be used (or at least not all 30,000 of them) anywhere else?

| Geridard is just infantry school. There would be other training centers I assume.
They probably won't be used anywhere else. But if a TF world became totally unable to govern itself because of bad corrupt leadership making poor trade deals, they might be deployed to keep the peace if the locals failed...
If you catch me drift..

| Yes. Yes, I do. As long as you accept there'd be consequences, though. Whoever is Chancellor couldn't ignore it, for instance.

| Well in the event of a breakdown of law an Order on a Trade Federation World, who else but the Trade Defense Force ought to step in to restore order? It's not an invasion, just peacekeeping.

| Even so, it'd be the Trade Federation fielding an army.

| Define an army? Surely if there are Trade Federation worlds, they must have military strength TDF units (especially in the cases of the really high value ones?)

Approve, but deny the weapons on the second platform. There already are listed weaponry stats for said platform.

Deny, until the ship in question is sorted out.
I will approve of Jace's troop numbers, but deny the SD-6 droid, same reasons as listed in two other requests of yours.
Quote 1 Lucrehulk-class Core Ship and 1 Munifex-class Frigate would be located here but under the command of a space unit of the TDF not Johannes.
Pending. The Trade Federation is building up quite a navy. Jace and I need to confer on fleet numbers before I can approve.
