RoboTommy

Here in the Galactic British Empire manual labour is not something that happens to the ruling classes, to ease the burden, for those that can afford it, the RoboTommy robotic assistant was created by Pickle Heavy Industries. This versatile machine can be easily adapted to carry out any number of menial or dangerous tasks, especially when used as a platform augmentation tool. The Galactic British Navy have become the biggest customer for RoboTommy and have funded, and lead, developments in the military units.

Following a mass recall of the first production units due to risk of catastrophic fire, the second version included a number of additional safety features which vastly reduced the number of lawsuits files against PHI. The recall of the second version production units following some high profile incidents of Robotocide lead to new software protocols and operating system encryption being introduced as a mandatory retrofit. The MkIV included a great many enhancements aimed at prolonging the unit’s useful life when operating off-planet and received mass deployments across the Empire. The Mark V is the latest incarnation of this useful minion and features such ground breaking features as being able to look in a different direction to that which it is moving.
