Storyline
TCG is an essential component in a bio-toxin which another supposed organization creates. PTMC has stolen this chemical and stored it in 14 facilities. Another 15th mine contains a main computer, which stores the data for creating the bio-toxin. You are ordered to destroy all 15 facilities.
Robots
Three examples of the Obsidian robots:
 |
The Sniper-RF was based on the Hornet Spawn model as a means of combining the aggressive intellect of the latter with advanced weaponry systems. While now made slightly slower than its predecessor, the Sniper-RF is a deadly sharpshooter. |
 |
Your lone robotic ally comes in the form of the AS Droid. Intelligence has programmed the mine data into these mechs and has retrofitted them with flare launchers. Experiments in giving them weaponry did not prove to be wise. |
 |
The Squid utility mech was designed to transport cargo from one area of the mine to another, using its Massive claw-like apparatus. It now uses this apparatus to shred any and all enemy targets. |
