Buddy & Lucy

The base Warhound model of autonomous combat robot has been proven to be extremely effective on the streets of Washington, but there is always room for improvement. Black Tusk Engineers have developed two prototype models, codenamed Lucy and Buddy, which represent a huge step up in lethality, intelligence and durability. They are designed to work closely together, and are considered inseparable.

Abilities
Overcharge:

Buddy and Lucy are both capable of boosting system performance to three increasingly powerful levels. Overcharge significantly improves their combat effectiveness, but can be remotely deactivated. Massive overcharge triggers automatically when one of the Warhounds is structurally compromised, and only stops when both are stabilized. Critical overcharge bypasses safety protocols and makes both Warhounds far deadlier.

Lucy:

Dorsal Minigun: This heavily modified 7.62 mm minigun has a 360-degree field of fire. It can fire from all six barrels at once in a devastating shotgun-style blast, or use a traditional rotating configuration for medium to long range engagements.

Electroshock Cannon: This compact device fires a piezo-electric projectile that releases a painful shock on impact, temporarily immoblizing targets.

Proximity Mines: Used tactically as area denial or to channel hostile forces into fire zones.

Buddy:

M18 Light Machine Gun: While primarily a combat support unit, Buddy is stil more than capable of dealing serious damage with this dorsal-mounted light machine gun.

Armour Repair Unit: Buddy is capable of restoring armour integrity to both himself and his sister unit Lucy.

EMP Generator: Buddy can emit a power EMP, disabling nearby electronics. Both Buddy and Lucy have integrated Faraday shielding rendering them immune to these effects.

Explosive Seeker Mines: Adapted from recovered Division technology.
