Now I don't want to sound like I'm ungrateful for the option but why does it cost so much to improve some of the renegade robots armour is it a typo or intentional? (I could buy another combat droid with a gun for the cost of upgrading ones armour) Also the robots have a dash for their will modifier does this mean they can't upgrade it at all or is it +0 I'm thinking for when they need to make apposed will checks like some of the psi powers and when trying to spot hidden enemies and does a robot that take the die harder talent become incapable of dying in a game as it calls for a will check which they always pass? Lastly a general question what models can take the advanced cybernetic arms and legs cybernetics except a wealthy lone vigilante as there cost far outstrips most models equipment allowance or does that not include cybernetics? I made this question it's own post but I didn't get any good replies so I'll try here.
Just to reiterate and expand on the answers I provided on the other thread (although apparently they weren't good enough for you):
1: Robots do not have a will characteristic because they do not need it. They automatically pass all will checks. This would also make them immune to psi-talents like mind lash or insanity (as they all use pass/fail to determine whether they succeed or not). Although I admit the idea of a robot with Die Harder is downright scary.
2: Most heroes with the Wealthy talent can take at least some of the advanced cybernetics, which is how it should be (they're expensive, you need to have lots of cash, makes sense to me). A Wealthy gangster can have up to 400 creds worth of equipment for example, wealthy punks, orang-utans, gorillas, fatties and desperadoes can all take up to 250 creds worth (the same as the vigilante). Technically wealthy robot heroes could afford it as well, though I guess then it would be upgraded systems rather than cybernetics per se.
