The Malevolence
Villages near the southern top of South America used to carry on their meager existence until robots began to emerge from the jungles. Whenever the robots reached the settlements, they attacked and destroyed the people. The robots spread across a small region, cleansing the area of all living things - jungle, mutant animals, people. When the robots came across the settlement of Big Gulp, established in an explicable rad-free zone, that settlement sent a group of its finest scouts to find the source of the evil and destroy it.
They never returned. Since the destruction of Big Gulp, mere months ago, humans are fleeing from the southern tip of South America. Fleeing, they say, from a tower of evil, fleeing from their death.

Light: Protectron The Protection is a slow metal man armed with a single laser "eye". Despite being made of metal, the Protectron is largely unarmored and it is incapable of tactics beyond "March at the enemy and fire". The Protection is capable of lifting heavy items and, critically, has two hands so it could be used for construction or reprogrammed to execute different tactics. Protectrons serve as the brute numbers of The Malevolence - but are typically passed over as soon as serious combat begins.
Medium: Robo-Scorpion The Robo-Scorpion is a fast metal scorpion with a powerful LAER mounted in the tail and two metal snapping claws. Robo-Scorpions are well armored, EMP-resistant, capable of repairing themselves and constructing additional instances, and capable of advanced tactics such as seeking cover. A common Robo-Scorpion tactic is to charge a target and tear it to shreds, then blast its allies to ash. Robo-Scorpions are the mainline unit of The Malevolence - if you don't see a Robo-Scorpion, then The Malevolence doesn't have a presence worth mentioning.
Heavy: Giant Robo-Scorpion The Giant Robo-Scorpion is a myth, they say. Realistically speaking, the Giant Robo-Scorpion is a mobile army smasher. Physically, the Giant Robo-Scorpion is around ten times the size of the Robo-Scorpion. Unlike Robo-Scorpions, Giant Robo-Scorpions do not seek close range combat - instead, they blast their targets with their atomic tail laser which combines incineration with irradiation and explosion to form a deadly combination. If forced into melee, the Giant Robo-Scorpion is perfectly capable of crushing anything while bullets, lasers, and even rockets strike its armored hide. Giant Robo-Scorpions are deployed only rarely due to their incredible expense and their tendency to serve as mobile electronic support for the other robot forces of The Malevolence.
