Walkers and Automated defenses have been in the game as long as I have it. So at least half a year.
But they are both very lategame tech. Way past tanks and jet-aircraft.

Best wishes,

Any chance you could turn the Retreat/surrender effect on robots/immobiles into something like a double-pinned effect isntead?
or maybe a outright kill?

They can physically not leave their position and if automatic they should have no survival instinct (so never surrender).
While the should suffer, these particualr results are kinda nonsensical for them.
