Robots deploy new weapon to Treasure Island - The Big Bulk
Posted by Deathifier on 2005-10-12 at 3:20AM
Earlier today a Robot raiding force was spotted not far to the south of
the main island teleporter.
Initial scouting revealed two warlocks, generation 08 and 09, that appeared to be leading an army
of drones, warriors and troopers slowly north.
A call for assistance was broadcast across Calypso and many colonists, both freelancers and from societies such as "Menace to Society" and "Coat Killers", gathered to fight the latest robot threat.
However today the robots had a surprise for us... a new, previously unknown robot called the "Big Bulk" joined the battle shortly after it had begun and combined with the warlock presence claimed many kills before they were destroyed.
Here is a brief analysis of the new robots capabilities:
- Damaged Output: 210-220 if unarmoured (Single Type, possibly Impact)
- Effective Range: Melee
- Speed: Moderate
- Damage Tollerance (health): 8000-9000
It is not known if this raid is related to one which occured several months ago, where an Eomon appeared with Warlocks. If these events are related then we may be facing additional raids in the future and colonists are advised to work together should they encounter any.
