The Tour guide was programmed to take people on a tour of the REPCONN headquarters before the Great War. Even in 2281, it wanders the halls, looking for any "Rocketeers" to educate them about RobCo Industries.
Honorary Rocketeer: The tour guide will give you a tour of the REPCONN facility and give you the knowledge to be an honorary rocketeer.
Notable quotes[]
"Welcome to REPCONN Headquarters, Rocketeer! Come all this way to see our little facility, have you?"
"I'm here to answer any and all questions you may have - within specified parameters - and if you'd like, I can provide a tour of our museum."
"Welcome back! Interested in a tour of the REPCONN museum? Or did you have a question about the company I could answer?"
"[What can you tell me about REPCONN?] I can answer whatever questions you'd like... provided your query is limited to REPCONN history, research and development, or RobCo."
"[REPCONN's history.] REPCONN's illustrious history began way back in 2054, shortly after the famous Delta XI rocket was completed and launched.REPCONN's initial focus was on the development of fuel to be used in orbital propulsion in response to the energy crisis of 2052. Sad times, indeed. The company really took off when RobCo purchased REPCONN in late 2076 to develop unmanned rockets to explore the solar system."
"[Research and development.] As you may already know, REPCONN is an industry leader in producing alternative fuels for military and scientific purposes.REPCONN scientists were pioneers in fission-based propulsion systems, and have recently had some very exciting breakthroughs with plasma systems.The recent partnership with RobCo has freed our engineers from mundane business matters, allowing them to focus solely on future projects."
"[Tell me about RobCo.] RobCo industries purchased REPCONN in 2075 to assist with some of RobCo's military projects, as well as developing unmanned space exploration. The relationship between RobCo and REPCONN is mutually beneficial, and we hope that both companies bolster each other well into the next century."
"[That's enough about REPCONN.] Very well, feel free to ask me more about REPCONN at any time, don't be shy. The tour showcases REPCONN's amazing scientific contributions, and the promise of many more, coupled with its parent company, RobCo."
"[Goodbye.] Goodbye, Rocketeer, be sure to visit again! Oh, and please - for your own safety, stay outside of restricted areas."
"Ready for the REPCONN tour, Rocketeers? Courtesy of the fine folks at RobCo, I'll be your guide today on the path of... Scientific. Discovery. In the lead-lined case behind me is a spent radioactive rod from of our old reactors. No need to stand too close, let's move along, shall we? Look here - a row of multi-colored plasma fuels! Careful, they may look safe to drink, but your stomach is the last place they should be. Why the difference in cylinder size? Refining our production methods has resulted in higher yields of fuel over time, that's why! To my right you can see a sample of some old "safety barrels" REPCONN once used to store radioactive waste. Perfectly safe. On my left is an example of a mountain of REPCONN safety barrels some legislators claim are poisoning our environment. Ridiculous. Behind me is our most recent rocket project, which we're keeping under our hats... until "launch," if you'll pardon the expression. And in front of me is a model - not actual size - of the launch dome we are using to send our rockets screeeeaming into orbit. Now these colorful fellows behind me are REPCONN's earliest... experiments in flight. Feel free to read the plaques and learn, Rocketeers! Now for the highlight of our tour! Due to a generous donation from RobCo, this next exhibit showcases the wondrous world of - robots! Around you are the incredible Eyebot, the fearsome Sentry Bot, and the always-helpful Mr. Handy. That helpfulness runs through our whole line!This is the final stop on our tour. This model of our solar system is a small example of where the partnership between RobCo and REPCONN hopes to go.See those little rockets zipping about? They are manned by robots, tirelessly looking for resources to mine on planets beyond our own.And that's it for our tour today, Rocketeers - RobCo and its tiny partner REPCONN thank you! Any further questions, please, feel free to ask."
