Well - most Hyperion robots are loaded with weapons and ammo, so I guess so. But they're named that because they were originally used for heavy lifting - loading cargo and stuff? Additional variants more suited for combat came later. My bunker was guarded by a significant number of them, so they were obviously very effective. And kinda cute.

[ robot-slash-gun talk is ALWAYS the most important??? duh??? ]

Cute like Dumpy's cute? [Look, John appreciates robots, but there are objective standards on cuteness levels here. This is also incredibly distracting, which is good.]

What? No, totally different kind of cute. Dumpy is made by Atlas, their aesthetics are completely different. They tend to prefer curved surfaces, whereas we go for angles and yellow paint. Loaders are big and blocky and stompy. And they talk!

You'll have to draw me a picture when we get out of here.

[Because they're getting out of here.]

Sounds like they'd come in handy, though, yeah. Place like this.
