Android.
Revised GAMMA WORLD androids are different from the usual science fiction
android robot. They are included in the Creatures Section that came with
the game. They are a unique form of artificial life that are all but extinct.
The process of creating them is almost completely forgotten. They are relatively
excluded from consideration here because they do not fit in with the normal
precepts of robotics and may possibly even be alien in design.
Armor.
When referring to a robot's armor, the players and GM must realize this
includes the material strength of the body, hot it is put together and
the angles of the body for reflection of attacks. As a frame of reference
the following armor guide is provided for the aspiring robot builder. The
intent of the function of a robot determines how much armor it should have.
