Greetings all,

I hear a cry for more robot designs!  (Heh Heh Heh!)
Here's one I converted for MegaTrav a few months back & never got
a chance to post.  From 101 Robots:  The OSF-4 Hostile Environment
Surveyor Robot.  (Redone without permission)  I turned it into a
series of robots from TL 13-15.  PBEMers may recognize Tweel's
Ossscarr Sssierrrra Foxtrrrot Fourrr.  And since Tweel's history,
if you're *very* good little boys & girls, I *might* be persuaded
to post the stats for Trrriple Thrree & friend.

BTW, the stats as given in 101 Robots are *FULL* of misprints.

"When originally designed, this combination of warbot and survey
robot was greeted with skepticism by most Scouts but, as the OSF-4
Survey Commando proved itself over and over in the field, the
skepticism changed to gratitude for making the life of a Scout a
little easier and much more survivable."  -- 101 Robots: GDP
