Steel Trooper
The Steel Trooper is the most human-looking of all the robots, and uses the utility of the human form to its utmost. Although humanoid in general appearance, the Steel Trooper stands eight feet (2.4 m) tall and is made of metal and armor plating. Their human size means the robot can enter buildings, walk down hallways, travel through openings designed for humans,
as well as use equipment and supplies originally designed for human users. This flexibility and their vast numbers means that it is the Steel Troopers that are the most commonly encountered of all the robots. However, these robots ' deliberate human appearance is meant to mock the human survivors as much as anything else. Unlike other robots, the Steel Troopers don't have any built-in weapon systems, but are assigned an M.D. handgun and rifle. Additionally, their hands and fmgers are small enough to use most human weapons and tools, and may collect a number of weapons in the field, much like the Necroborgs, to use against the enemy, including their own. Steel Troopers were once manufactured in the billions and are the mainstay of the Machine' s robot military infantry and work force. They are found everywhere, assisting with robot repairs, working in the industrial centers, hauling cargo, constructing buildings, preforming maintenance, collecting salvage, exploring and charting ruins and wilderness, among other chores, but are first and foremost, the Machine' s main front-line infantry. As the prime military unit, Steel Troopers participate in every major military campaign, siege and mass troop operation (representing 50-65% of the overall force). They are also frequently encountered in small squads ( 1d4+4, often accompanied by 1d6 other hunter-killer type robots and/or drones) on patrols, reconnaissance, salvage operations or human extermination missions. As a result, it is the image of the Steel Trooper, more than any other robot design, that represents the tyranny, oppression and domination of the Machine over humanity.
 
Handguns have 35 M.D.C. - Rifles have 80 M.D.C. - Rail Guns and other large weapons have 100 M.D.C., but are only damaged when an attacker is specifically targeting the weapon for the purpose of destroying it (rather than disarming an opponent).
 
Thanks for the info!

Ack. I was going to have Chaska go after their rail guns and rifles when I realized... "Oh wait. This is Palladium '2nd Edition.' Called Shots take two Actions instead of one as they did years ago." That makes my strategy too "Action-expensive." Guess he's going after the 'bots themselves. =)

Hit Points 27 + 18 = 45
M.D.C. for Mantis Blades 7x10 = 70
Hive M.D.C. 162 + 15 because over 200 bugs = 177
Just realized I need to roll these...
Ignore the 1 at the end of the first one that was an accident extra roll
 
Still a WIP a little but posted the Profile! I'll respond to the combat in a bit when I'm settled, and I'll ask questions if I'm confused about anything!
 
Okay...So if I am reading this all right I think I can send a command to 40 of my Locusts to attack (2 Melee actions) a robot (Can the command be to attack more then one robot or does it have to be a specific target with each command?)
I can send another 40 of my locusts at another target (Another 2 Melee actions)
Then I have a spare 2 actions that I can use to do 2 short bursts at someone as well?
I have 6 Attacks if I did my character sheet right lmk if this is completely off or sounds about right😅
