Rules Help Request: Using skills at range

[Irishman]

Ok, again I am working on this concept of the operator / robots. Im buying the robots as Followers, with the understanding if one gets destroyed, he is not avialable for the next game sesson(s).

One of the things the Operator wants to do, is to have the robot link into the computer or security system. The robot then links in the operator with either High Range Radio Listen and Transmit or some sort of Mind Link combinations.

Then the operator will use HIS skills over that link.

How do I do this? Do I buy skills, useable at range, with a level or two of (*GAH*) megascale, and then an OAF robot?, but I could program in person, so I wouldnt ALWAYS need the OAF...

Any suggestions?

P.S. How do you get an avatar picture?

P.S. How do you get an avatar picture? Click on Profile, then Edit Options. The item to set an avatar is at the bottom.

This is probably what I am going to do. I bought the INT of the robot down to 4 (Can follow simple verbal commands on its own) and then bought INT as a power equal to the Operator with a -1 limit, only useable when connected to operator. Ill do the same with the skills.
