Heavy Pistol, VRX ALR, 4x Shock Pulser Grenades.
Technically speaking, a nuke would have been a much better explosive choice, the EMP would have been infinitely more useful against robots.

Everyone has shock pulser grenades.
Weapons designed to fight robots.
And my character is a robot.
If anybody rolls a one while throwing those things, I will kill you.

You can't blame us if you're a robot. That was your choice.

Right, and possibly shorting out all your weapons, armour, and your robot teammate is a fantastic idea. :roll:

Look on the bright side, they'll probably flash-freeze themselves as well at some point. ;)

OP is updated with new roster format, plot-update coming soon.

You might want to include the character's role on that roster.

That occurred to me as well. I've also added ranks to the character name field.

Indeed it was. If you go down to friendly fire, that's your own fault for making it so that you could go down to anti-robot friendly fire in the first place.

I didn't know there was going to be anti-robot friendly fire

Neither did I. That's why I picked a human character in the event of anti-robot friendly fire.

I think a bad roll with an EMP would've done nothing if you hadn't given Arc the idea of robo-friendly fire. :roll:

Besides, you're just as susceptible to bullets as we are, but completely invincible against most tactical grenades (poison gas, shock grenades (i presume your robo-eyes have some kind of flash resistance)). It's not like we can't already accidentally kill each other. Besides, you have perks to being a robot: Being more durable, tactical grenade resistance (as stated above), ability to scan data and work with machines, etc. All we have going for us is EMP resistance, honestly. Also, if you die, your memory can be put into a new robot. We can't put our brains in someone else. :P

Good point.

Uh. Do we even have the tech for that?

Arc, in the roster I have 2 extra grenade slots. What's up with that?

Grenade launcher, I assume. More types for the launcher, since it has six places to put the grenades.

Izen is correct. It can hold a maximum of 6 canisters each with 3 grenades (for a total of 18 grenades) at once, and I felt it would be unfair to send you in with only 4 canisters.

Coulda sworn I mentioned to pick two more on the last page, but I'll restate it. Pick two more grenade canisters! :wink:

The thing about Hydra canisters is you can't use them like normal grenades. But you can do all sorts of impact/bounce/timed/airburst shenanigans with their contents.
