Medibot Gremlin
A whimsical Gremlin that answers the question, what would a Vietnam/Korean War era drone have looked like, if they had been invented that early? Styling cues come from a Vietnam era Jeep.

Central, you asked to see me?
Yes, I wanted to talk to you about a new project. As you know, we’ve been running short
on Gremlins lately for our Specialists…. and you know how long it takes to build a new one.
A recent rebel contact has volunteered to donate some of their inventory – they’re …. Medibots.
You’ve got to be kidding, those things are OLD. You just sneeze around one of them, it might collapse into a pile of rust.
Which is where you come in. I don’t care what it takes, use baling wire, super glue, gum, whatever. I need you to get those old birds running. They may be old, and short on firepower, but I bet one of those will outheal even your latest models.
Ok, I’ll do my best.
Thanks, I knew I could count on you.

This gremlin is designed for your healing specced specialist, and has recently been enhanced
to support healing both organic and robotic units. ( which makes it a good compliment
for playing the new Spark units )
Stats are nearly identical to the base values of the existing gremlin.
Healing bonus increased by 1. Damage reduced by 1.
An additional single use heal has been added called a "Medibot Heal". Applies 5 more
healing points than the standard gremlin heal, but takes all action points.
Upgrade costs can be tweaked in XComMedibotGremlin.ini and are
currently set to 40 and 55 resources respectively for tier 2 and tier 3.
Damage and Healing bonus values can also be changed in the same INI.
Much thanks to the artists at www.textures.com, who created most of the textures
used in this project.
If you enjoy this mod, a thumbs up would be greatly appreciated. 🙂
Added a new ability called a "Medibot Heal". A large, single use heal.
Fixed normals on the mesh to get a better render by the game engine.
Extended the "Medibot Heal" to allow healing of robotic allies. ( i.e., the new Spark units )
