To be honest, I'm not sure if that was a bug, or Thanatos playing about, or intended. IMHO the size looks too small. There are heavy ones spawned in PP on the TS.

Yah I think I remember the Iorghe GM guy mentioning he did it on purpose. Well he said "I shrunk the bots", dunno if he was being sarcastic but Im pretty sure he intented to do it.

They're so cute and tiny, but the real ones (the ones in TH on there atm are bugged) pack quite a punch. And the fact that their shots are bugged makes it even scarier. 8 shots in 3. :shock:

Yes, thanks to some breakthroughs in Nanotechnology, the new light SecBots could be reduced in size, while upping their defense and damage dealing capabilities at the same time.

They'll be underestimated only once... :twisted:

Testing went smoothly with just some small alterations to AI-scripting and a slight increase in shot-frequency needed.
But the technicians tell me that the new models are to be ready for service anytime soon.

Ahhhh yes, the first step in the continuing defensive modifications to TH. Bots that shoot the enemies toes off. When the enemies finally fall over from hopping around it slowly starts working on the fingers as well :twisted:
