-Robots, along with [[Mercenaries]], are one of the ranged henchmen sets.  Its damage is Energy/Smashing based, and its resists are Sleep, Fear, Disorient, Lethal, Cold, and Psionic.  Many of its powers have a knockback component - other than this, it is a control-light set, as opposed to [[Necromancy]]. It is notable as the only [[Mastermind]] powerset with a customized [[Flight|Group Fly]] animation (jump jets in the feet).
