Bertie Mk1 has become a common sight in the battlefield, the unit a major success for the Rothchild Corporation.Even so reports of mobility problems on soft surfaces have plagued it's reputation, loss of traction, toppling and partial loss of movement have been noted. Mk2 was not offered as a replacement for the Mk1 but as a new addition to the Rothchild war-robot catalogue. Smaller, lighter, quicker and able to traverse most terrains, he Mk2 is becoming the Bertie of choice as the war continues. Bertie Mk2 is currently teamed with the new Bertie Mk3 in hunting packs linked by the new MCS (maternal combat software), that has the Mk3 protecting the Mk2 vigorously to say the least. Martian forces have also been deploying strike forces consisting of Bertie MK2 and Dropcloth with devastating results against the Earth Coalition since its introduction showing that the Mk2 is an adaptable unit. Even though the form factor of the Mk2 has changed considerably, one of the most important changes is V.4 of the A.I, giving unprecedented freedom in Bertie Mk2's decision making. Though some unfortunate "incidents" have occurred, the battle-field has not looked back! Rothchild Corporation does not rest on its laurels, the Mk2 just confirms World War Robot is a graphic novel illustrated by artist Ashley Wood and written by both Ashley Wood and TP Louise. The picture book combines an unconventional use of pairing painted images and essays to tell small parts of a larger story. The prose include excerpts from various diaries, journals and transcripts based around the humans involved in a fictional war in the 1980-1990s known as the Great War. WWR format figures are 1/6th scale toys of the various bots and humans of the WWR Universe, while their smaller WWRp counterparts are half that size at 1/12th scale.
