ROBOT-BASHING STRATEGY

Now that you have a better weapon than that dinky Hand Phaser, it's time
to try your hand at some combat. You need to increase your stats and get
some credits. You have no shield whatsoever, so you'll be lucky to take out
one or two robots, maybe more, before you get busted. Get used to the SRC:

manage to get at least 500 (preferably 875) credits, head for the
underground. After buying better armor and perhaps some devices (whatever
you can afford/carry), head back up and take on the tougher robots. You'll
just have to keep at it to build up your stats and credits.

If anything breaks, try several times to fix it yourself. If you succeed,
