R.M.C "Tripod" Waldo Set

The RMC Tripod should be essential equipment for every techie. you always need another pair of hands, but what's more you need a pair of hands that will do exactly what you want not what some dumb assistant thinks that you want The Tripod interfaces with you through a neuralware MLINK (separate installation), and will perform simple tasks in the workshop under your control. Its three legs give it stability in most conditions, and its multiply-articulated hands are delicate enough to do your work for you. Further, the open-frame construction makes maintenance very easy. After all, as a tech you'll want to repair your own equipment won't you?

Game Notes: The Tripod could work as a remote pair of hands, but the Tech would need a lot of practice and full concentration to do that It certainly won't allow you to work on two jobs at once. However, it does serve as another pair of hands, and it can hold things steady while you work on them, and move things around, so it does make it possible for a techie to perform certain tasks alone that would normally need two people (-3 to TECH, REF, or INT-based skill rolls involving the unit. until the user has had a week's practice and makes a Difficult Basic Tech roll. Further penalties/effects ore the GM's call).
