Fortunately for the army of the Galactic Republic, the super droids suffered from technical problems and were never mass produced. Wat Tambor had done a challenge for both teams, and Metalorn Foundry.
Foundry had developed a droid known as the Avatar-7. This was the droid that received the blessing of General Grievous. He was nicknamed B3 and was sent to be a soldier in the front line. B3 units were used by the Trade Federation of assaults on the frontline against well defended targets. Were often used in place of droidekas, being much cheaper than the destroyer droids.
Jedi Masters Mace Windu and Saesee Tiin faced the Avatar-7 prototype at the Battle of Iktotch. Though their individual skills were not enough to overcome the behemoth, the Jedi worked together to defeat it, eventually destroying it by crushing it under the remains of a Hailfire droid. B3s were also used during the Outer Rim Sieges, where they served as sparse heavy units for each Separatist commander. However, huge price tags and malfunctions with density projectors prevented widespread use.
After the Clone Wars, hundreds of units were used at the Imperial Academy's urban-warfare training zone on the planet of Carida.
