Traveller - Robot Handbook

Robots have been a staple of science fiction for a hundred years, filling every role from near-brainless laborer to loyal sidekick to comedy to sinister villain trying to take over the world. They range from remote-controlled drones to super-intelligent beings that have far surpassed the limitations of their biological creators. Robots can be stationary objects with a single arm or nothing more than a radio to control other machines. They can move on the ground, at sea or in the sky, equipped with limbs, tools and weapons of all kinds.

Traveller - Robot Handbook is designed to be both quick and easy to use, and configurable to customize all aspects of a robot's functions, capabilities and skills; a standard robot can be built in just minutes. The Robot Manual also includes rules for making nanobots and microrobots, androids, clones, biological robots, and brains for vehicles and spaceships. And what is a cybernetic limb but a robot part? The Robot Handbook covers everything from a cybernetic arm to a complete mechanical body with a living brain inside.

The Robot Manual comes with a huge catalog full of robots built using these rules, serving as a springboard for your own designs and allowing you to start using robots now as tools, companions, or opponents for your Travelers.
