Coppertops



Coppertops is a special encounter in Fallout Tactics. Several humans (called 'Human Battery') are running on treadmills while a task-master robot oversees the entire operation. On the far side of each pair of treadmills is a locker that you can lockpick and obtain 200 Small Energy Cells. These energy cells are regenerated over time.

Unusually the command robot is not hostile unless fired upon by the player. Even opening the lockers will not initiate unwanted combat. Note that even though the human test subjects may beg the player character to kill them, doing so will earn him/her huge amounts of negative karma, and it is best to leave them alone if the player wishes to complete the game with good karma.
