@Spiritof: Well, if you don't recall, Atlas' machines and the like don't follow the CNR unless you dig deep into associations, what with them simply being referred to as "Atlesian Knights" and "Atlesian Paladins".

If it's not the primary purpose, then it shouldn't have to, but if it's going to be something you're working with, you need to be cautious and do so.

Then again, artificial intelligence units and such are always difficult to make, considering that aside from Penny, none have an Aura, so they'd be about as useful as Ironwood's Knights.
