A.B.C. Warriors - Hammerstein MKI

Unfortunately, there isn’t much written about the MKI, so I'm sorry for the shorter post.

Years after the Volgan occupation of Western Europe, the United States began a counter-invasion to liberate the area officially; unofficially, Earth's oil reserves were running low, and they wanted to seize the Volgan's oil reserves. To do this, they created expendable robot soldiers - ABC Warriors - designed to wage war across any terrain in any combat, atomic, bacterial or chemical. The first of their number was called Hammerstein. Developed by Howard Quartz's Ro-Busters corporation, they first saw use at Fishguard in 2009, leading the Allied liberation of the United Kingdom.

The first two models were failures. The Mk I robot was an effective killer but could not distinguish between targets on its own, killing civilians as well as Volgan soldiers. When controlled remotely by human soldiers in 2009, the Volgans were able to seize control and redirect them against American forces, driving them back across Wales and causing the American public to protest the use of war robots. Thousands of Hammersteins were destroyed for fear of Volgan reprogramming.
