Jayden Dooku's Droid Army

Jayden Dooku's Droid Army, also known as the Separatist Army (based on, but distinct from the faction from the Clone Wars) is a secondary antagonist faction in Rico's Brigade, and led by Jayden Dooku.

The faction appears to consist entirely of Clone Wars era Battle Droids and Sepparatist vehicles and weapons, created in the factories on Geonosis at Jayden Dooku's behest. Whether or not any other organics, such as the Geonosians themselves or former Separatists were involved is unknown, but Dooku's primary motivation for attempting to recreate the largest droid army the galaxy had ever seen was to avenge his father, Count Dooku, and presumably continue his work.

Dooku began his campaign of conquest by having his droids attack a factory on Geonosis shortly after Rico's Brigade had taken the planet. His droids overpowered the clones, killing Tanker and driving Racket and the other survivors off the planet.

Despite Rico's expectations, Jayden decided not to align with the Empire, but accepted an alliance with the Hutt Cartel for unknown reasons, agreeing to provide them with battle droids.

Although the two factions did not align, whether or not Jayden Dooku's droid army ever directly combated the Empire is unknown.

Jayden sent his army in force to attack Bothawui shortly after Rico's Brigade took it, but Racket fended them off.

Jayden would attempt to forge an alliance with Rico's Brigade, offering them non-agression and perhaps even droids if they handed Mace Windu, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Tucker to him, but Rico refused.

Jayden's next big push came after Rico's Brigade conquered Kamino. After torturing necessary intel out of captured clones, he sent commando droids with special armor that makes them even more powerful to seize a platform and gain his army a foothold. They succeed, but the special droids are exhausted, and his forces were driven off the planet when reinforcements arrive.

Angered, Rico sent Rex to Geonosis to put an end to Jayden's faction once and for all. Despite Jayden trying to ambush and confuse the clones, his fleet and army were defeated and he was captured.

The new droid army came to an effective end when Jayden Dooku was shot to death in custody by Flak, though Rico's Brigade worried that there might still be programmed droids throughout the galaxy. It is possible that some of these leftover droids either joined or perhaps founded the Droid Rebellion years later.
