[QUOTE="sinmissing, post: 1751068, member: 1960"] You're wasting your time with the feds. Right. Make the GM squirm when you use his own flavor text against him. All government defense contracts are won by meeting criteria set by the government. For example, the gov just doesn't ask for a rifle, and then everyone rushes off to get it one. No, the gov says the rifle has to weigh so much, have certain tolerances, its amunition can only be so big, it must be dismantable by someone with an 8 INT, etc. If the robot was built for the government, there is bound to be some specs lying around; possibly at the pentagon. That's why I say you are wasting your time with the FBI. The FBI is civilian. You need military. Course if the bad guys already go to that information . . . . :] Um, one more thing. I don't know how old your group is, but if your GM is calling the thing, "Mr. Roboto" he might be giving you a clue that there isn't much to worry about. It could be a huge distraction from something more devious "Thankyou very much Mr. Roboto, for doing the job nobody wants to. . ." Again, depends on how much the badguys know. [/QUOTE]
