The Rebel Alliance inherits a droid army and navy

What if the Rebel Alliance reactivated the droid army and navy, including their shipyards and foundries?

Rebel forces already reactivated some droid facilities and used surviving Clone Wars ships; the initial judgment is that a wider revival would make the Empire's job easier.

Clarke's initial response is that restoring these forces would make the Empire's job easier. The other replies emphasize that Rebel use of Clone Wars ships and industrial sites already occurred in the setting. Examples include Venators, Trade Federation vessels, the modified Providence Rebel One, and at least two Lucrehulks. Books make this mixed fleet clearer than screen productions, whose ship designs help viewers distinguish the opposing sides. One Lucrehulk's unsuccessful challenge to the Death Star also illustrates the limits of possessing a large recycled warship.
