Hunter Seeker Automatons
Hunter Seekers
Silent, fast, map-invisible explosive automatons; Carl recognizes the Reaver dogs as the same category he uses.
Story so far
When Holger called out a lot of incoming at The Reaver Castle, Carl immediately identified them: "They're hunter seekers! They're gonna explode! Shields up! Shields up!"
He noted there were no dots on the map, because these were automatons, just like the ones he regularly used himself, meaning they would be silent and fast. The wave proved to be the Reavers' Robot Doggies, tech-based security sentries with optional anti-personnel explosives, including lion-sized models carrying a Mini Tactical Nuke.
Role
The class of exploding automaton Carl recognizes, explaining the dogs' invisibility to the map.
Relationships
Carl — Regularly uses automatons of the same category and recognizes the threat
Robot Doggies — The Reaver sentries identified as hunter seekers
The Map — Automatons produce no dots on it
