This creature is a cow sized robot. It's a competent fighter with high hit points. It's a bit faster than you, clumsy, has extremely high armor against bashing weapons and very high armor against cutting ones (that includes bullets). Its special ability allows it to use either a tazer, fire its M4A1, or fire a grenade, depending on distance, every 5 turns.
It has extremely high morale and it's totally aggressive. Being a robot, it's afraid of nothing in particular, and can be angered by nothing in particular.
It can see, can hear noises, can bash destroyable objects in its way (like doors), doesn't breathe (it's not affected by smoke, toxic gases, drowning, etc), can be damaged by EMP blasts and become friendly, smartly selects targets to attack, and nothing else.
Being made of steel, it's vulnerable to electricity.
When it dies, it explodes.
Notes
Left by the military, near roadblocks along the roads. They have quite some firepower, they use a M4-equivalent (556 rounds) at close range, or a MGL-equivalent loaded with 40 mm frag rounds at far away targets or vehicles.
Fortunately, they are rumored to not see as far as normal humans, so you may be able to escape if you spot one at range. Alternatively, a good rifle and armor may be able to help, and they fold quickly when confronted with a rocket launcher. If you've managed to assemble the "control laptop" remote hacking computer, chicken walkers make good escorts for a survivor on foot, too, as they'll turn that firepower on whatever hostiles get in your way. During the night or in dark places, plonking at them with a good bow and good arrows is surprisingly effective if you can stay hidden.
Pre 0.C (Cooper) the targeting software of most robots was set on "kill all living humans". Which had an unfortunate side effect, as the zombies didn't quite register as "living", but police, National Guard, and player characters certainly did! But thanks to the magic of wireless software updates, this has mostly been fixed. It now properly tries to shoot anybody who is not authorized, or breaks curfew, or is considered a threat.
- Upon death they explode damaging everything nearby.
- Carries 1000 556 rounds, 100 40 mm frag rounds.
