Some PGC Robots

  • Equipment

I haven’t gotten quite as far along in finishing up the Records Vault writeup as I’d like so the final version will have to wait a week. However, I did get the details on the robots found in the facility all written up so I’m presenting them here. Feel free to use them in your games

PGC S-037 Security Robot

The S-037 is a fairly typical security robot designed around a humanoid body.  It is capable of going anywhere one of the Frontier races can go.  It has a built-in sonic stunner and can carry and use any standard weapon.  It can respond to voice commands from authorized personnel and is capable of independent action within its mission and functions. 

The S-037 is designed to be a failsafe security system and will continue to function even when other security systems have been disabled.  While these robots have a computer link to share information with the facility’s computer, they cannot be deactivated via the computer’s robot management program if present. 

Level:  4
Body Type:  standard, two arms
Movement:  legs, 90 m/turn (max)
STA:  100
Attack:  70
IM:  7
Programs: Security Lock, Restrain, Attack/Defense, Computer Link
Equipment: Inertia Screen, power backpack, laser rifle, built-in sonic stunner, 4 tangler grenades
Cost: 13,950 cr.

The laser rifle and inertia screen are powered by the power backpack while the sonic stunner is powered by the robots internal Type 1 parabattery.  It uses the sonic stunner and tangler grenades by default but will switch to its laser rifle if seriously threatened or commanded to by an authorized person.

PGC M-022 Maintenance Robot

The M-022 is designed to do basic technical maintenance on buildings and equipment as well as janitorial duties.  Designed around a standard body with wheeled movement, the M-022 is a relatively small, boxy robot with two long manipulator arms and a sensor cluster in its “head” which is mounted on a flexible “neck”.

It can perform basic maintenance and assist a technician with their repair skills (granting a +10%) bonus on buildings and vehicles.  In addition, it is programmed for janitorial work to assist in keeping its assigned facility clean.  The M-022 can respond to simple voice command from authorized personnel but is typically controlled via the facility’s main computer.

Level:  3
Body Type:  standard, two arms
Movement: wheels, 60m/turn (max)
STA:  100
Attack:  60
IM:  6
Programs: Security Lock, Self Defense, Computer Link, Maintenance (1)
Equipment: techkit tools
Cost: 12,250 cr.

PGC G-092 Data Retrieval Robot

This small robot is designed to retrieve and transport data cubes within a computer facility.  It is built around a standard body with wheeled movement and two long (2m) manipulator arms.  In addition, the upper portion of its body can be raised on an internal hydraulic lift to allow it to reach high locations in the storage vaults, extending its height up to 3 meters.  Built into the top of the robot’s body is a “cradle” that allows it to carry up to four large data cubes in addition to carrying cubes in its hands.

The G-092 is really a mobile extension of the of the facility’s main computer and is only controlled via the computer’s robot management program.  It does not respond to voice commands and has no way of communicating other that via the computer.

Level:  2
Body Type: standard, two long arms
Movement: wheeled, 60m/turn (max)
STA: 100
Attack:  50
IM: 5
Programs:  Security Lock, Self Defense, Computer Link

    Did you intend these only as robots found working at a PGC installation, or as something they might also sell to consumers (aka, PCs)?

    No these are definitely just generic models you could probably order from a PGC catalog (hence I included a price). I might want to think up a special designation to use for corporate only robots.
