WARDOG
Autonomous military unit designed for terrain no wheeled vehicle could hold. Decades without maintenance have degraded the chassis and not the targeting. Whatever criteria it uses to classify a target are no longer documented anywhere.

The best you can use
Sign in and set up your character to see the best gear you can use.
Estimate with the game's fight rules: 2d10 plus accuracy against a defense of 6 plus armor modifiers; a critical hit (two tens or 10 over the defense) deals ×1.5; damage minus the armor for that damage type, at least 1 per hit; base health 60; a turn every 10 s. Natural defense, skill bonuses, range and terrain are left out.

Codex entry
- Entry 1
Recovered WARDOGs combine military hydraulics with an optical cluster assembled from multiple 1980s camera systems. The lenses track independently, yet feed a single targeting solution. Armor repairs span decades and include steel from civilian road signs.
- Entry 2
Scavengers say a WARDOG never looks where it is walking. The camera cluster watches windows, rooftops, hands, and reflections while the legs pick their own path. If every lens turns toward one person, the shooting starts.
- Entry 3
One disabled unit contained thirty-seven seconds of surviving magnetic tape. The footage shows its own patrol route under an unfamiliar night sky, then the same route empty and sunlit. Frame counters indicate both sequences were recorded simultaneously.
