At the outskirts of the city, you find a huge robot. As far as they eye can see, scrapped and damaged robots and pieces of robots are standing, sitting and lying on the ground. But out of the corner of your eye, you see motion. Something seems to be watching you from behind a pile of scrap!

I’m sure they’ll accept our smart car as part-exchange for that robot

this is surely going to be a cool robot for us to take and definitely not something that will try to kill us

You look around the junkyard, and see several things that might be of use. But then you are confronted by a huge creature with the remains of a collar around its neck. It is a Giant Ape, carrying the leg of a robot as though it were a club! At the moment it seems curious rather than angry.

I’m sure the ape wielding a massive club will be a sparkling conversationalist

You speak calmly to the ape, and it begins to caper and grunt. It is a pet, kept to help around the yard! You look around the junkyard, but the only useful things you see are too heavy for you to move, and the junkyard equipment is out of order. Then the ape, which has been watching you, lends a hand. Deftly, it takes apart the robot you have been studying, and carries the parts as you indicate. With the help of the ape, you may repair up to 4 armour points on your robot, if that many had been lost.

(reminder - our car doesn’t have any armour)

I feel like the stupid little car is a good omen, like rather than smashing about the place in a warriormech we’re doing a sort of Wes Anderson approach - sure we’ll get into some scrapes, meet some interesting folk, but ultimately prevail (also things will be symmetrical and very tastefully lit)

You park your robot outside the tunnel entrance and slip inside. You don’t know what you expect to find here, but you have never been in this tunnel system, and its aura of secrecy attracts you. The tunnels are dimly lit, but you can see well enough. Soon you come to a turning.

The tunnel winds until you have lost all sense of direction. Then it forks. One fork seems to go up; the other turns downward.

The tunnel goes lower and lower into the earth. Then it opens into a wide, dimly lit vault.

  • Enter the vault (340)

The area proves to be full of rusting, abandoned robots. At the other side of the vault is a huge lift. The control panel has three coloured buttons, but none is marked. The lift contains a huge robot; in the dimness you cannot make out what type it is, but it has treads and claws.

  • Enter the lift and push a button at random (269)
  • Take the small corridor beside the lift (398)
