Short-Round Perimeter Defense Robot

Short-round robotThe Short-Round is not very creatively named, but it this 4' tall walker robot is effective at it's job.  It has enhanced sensory equipment to find and investigate targets, and advanced targeting equipment to pick them off with.  It's weapon is a 15mm electromagnetic rifle.  Typically it carries solid ammo, but may have special purpose chemical rounds, or hollow-point or gel ammo depending on the facility it is guarding.  It is not a fast robot (Move 4), and most humans can out-run it.  However, it has a combat chassis and its armor can withstand automatic rifle fire (DR 28), so rarely will an intruder be able to outgun it.  It's large feet provide an extremely stable firing platform.  For manipulation work, it has one hand (ST 12), but poor grip.
