One of my players is looking to take the Machine Control trait. Thinking ahead I can envision that when they face the inevitable robot enemy he will want to try and do a mind control like thing so I'm trying to prepare and figure out some rules for that. My original thought was that I would just do it like a mind control roll and have him roll machine control vs. will or toughness. The problem is that none of the robots in the rulebook have either of those stats, it's all armor and might. So I guess I'm just curious how you would handle that.

That's a good question. Normally I'd see a robot army handled like a group of minions (i.e., they have only one stat, Threat) so I suppose you'd simply use the Threat ranking as their defense roll.
I could see tweaking the stat to represent to make things more interesting (add 2d to their defense against physical attacks, but subtract 2 against mental attacks, for instance), but that's just a personal flavor.

I would do exactly as you say, Drayven, using whatever trait applies to the robot's defense against damage as its defense (probably Armor).
