R.A.N.C.H.E.R. Unit

Reactionary Assault, Neutralization, and Containment Heavy Engagement Recon (R.A.N.C.H.E.R.) Unit

  R.A.N.C.H.E.R. Units were originally developed and used by a Pre-Wars organization referred to as "the United States Marine Corps". Although little is known about this particular group, it is known that the R.A.N.C.H.E.R. Units were used primarily for combat situations, to reduce the need for human troops.   Until recently, only one, heavily modified R.A.N.C.H.E.R. Unit was known to have survived, but recently, that same unit along with a mixed group of humans, mutants, and synthetics discovered a cache of two dozen more buried in the MedLab Radiation Fields.   CR 4

R.A.N.C.H.E.R.-like Robot

Prior to the discovery of the surviving units, a Mansen Corporation expedition discovered schematics for R.A.N.C.H.E.R. Units and attempted to recreate them. They were unsuccessful at duplicating the units' A.I. systems, but they were able to develope R.A.N.C.H.E.R.-like robots that can be used as combat drones.   CR 2
