The P2 astromech droid is a predecessor of the more familiar R2-unit, introduced in the Expanded Universe. The P2 first appeared in Black Ice (1990, West End Games), a roleplaying game adventure module written by Paul Murphy and Bill Slavicsek. In this game module, Rebel agents infiltrate an Imperial cargo train, the Black Ice, and encounter a number of droids aboard. Among them is P2-D19. According to the module, the P2 is an early precursor to the R2 astromech model. It is described as being much larger and simpler than the R2s. An accompanying illustration of the outsized astro-droid by Bob Dvorak is based on an early Ralph McQuarrie concept illustration of R2-D2.
衍生宇宙介绍,P2宇航技工机器人是更为人知的R2机器人的前身。P2首次出现于由保罗·墨菲和比尔·斯拉维塞克编写的桌面角色扮演游戏冒险模块《黑冰》(1990年,西末游戏公司)。在这个游戏模块中,义军侦察员潜入帝国货运列船“黑冰号”,发现船上有许多机器人。P2-D19就在其中之一。根据这个游戏模块,P2是R2宇航技工机器人型号的先驱。它被描述得比R2大得多也简单得多。以拉尔夫·麦夸里的一幅早期R2-D2概念图为基础,鲍勃·德沃夏克绘制了这种特大号宇航机器人创作的附图。
The P2's history was further expanded in The History of the R-Series Astromech Droids, an article by Pablo Hidalgo that appeared in Star Wars Adventure Journal #7 (1995, West End Games). Here, the P2 is described as the first of Industrial Automaton's astromechs, designed specifically for capital-scale space transports used by Old Republic shipping fleets. The P2 was a test prototype of sorts, and proved successful, but it never became the true series-starter for the more familiar R-series line. An intellectual properties lawsuit kept the P2 from reaching the market, and while this dispute churned its way through the Republic's labyrinthine judicial system, Industrial Automaton instead went in another direction for their R1 unit.
P2的历史在《R系列宇航技工机器人历史》一文中进一步展开,此文刊登于《星球大战冒险杂志》第7期(1995年,西末游戏公司),作者为巴勃罗·伊达尔戈。在这里,P2被描述为工业机器人公司的第一种宇航技工机器人,专为旧共和国运输船队使用的大型太空运输船设计。P2是某种测试原型,取得了成功,但从未成为更为人知的R系列家族的真正初始型号。一场知识产权官司导致P2迟迟不能面市,当这场纠纷终于被共和国盘根错节的司法体制解决时,工业机器人公司已开始为他们的R1机器人走另一条路了。
The P2 unit comes equipped with a heavy grasper arm extending from its domed head, and three medium arms within its trunk. It has a laser welder, a video display screen, and a buzzsaw. It incorporates an Intellex II internal computer created to facilitate the droid's new database system of capital ship designs. The droid even included an abbreviated nav computer that allowed it calculate hyperspace coordinates on the fly.
一条重型抓握臂能从P2机器人的半球型头部中伸出。三条中型臂位于其躯干内。它有一个激光焊机、一块视频显示屏和一把圆锯。它整合了一台“英特尔勒克斯二型”内部计算机。这种计算机被生产出来帮助机器人的主力舰造型新数据库系统。这种机器人甚至包含了一台小型导航计算机,使它在飞行能计算超空间坐标。
The P2 has made limited appearances in fiction after this introduction, mostly in the form of guides and sourcebooks -- like The Essential Guide to Droids, (1999, Del Rey Books) and The New Essential Guide to Droids (2006, Del Rey Books).
这次亮相后,P2在出版物里的出场次数很有限,主要以指南和资料集的形式出现——如《机器人必备指南》(1999年,德雷书社)和《新机器人必备指南》(2006年,德雷书社)。
Collecting P2 Unit
收藏P2机器人
A collectible version of the P2 unit has yet to be made... but, the same Ralph McQuarrie sketch that inspired the P2's design was the basis of an R2-D2 concept art action figure from Hasbro in 2007, as an exclusive available at Celebration IV in Los Angeles. Packed with a prototype C-3PO model, this chunky astromech droid is a squat version of the design. Though it is not to described scale of the P2 unit (a height pegged at 2.2 meters tall), collectors and gamers could conceivably use it with their Star Wars miniatures from Wizards of the Coast to represent the oversized prototype droid.
P2机器人收藏版尚未制作……但是,以那幅启发了P2设计的拉尔夫·麦夸里草图为基础,孩之宝在2007年为洛杉矶“第四届庆典”独家推出了R2-D2概念图活动人偶。这个短粗的宇航技工机器人是P2造型的矮胖版。它与一个C-3PO的原型被包装在一起出售。虽然它不到P2机器人的设定大小(其高度被认定为2.2米),但玩具收藏者和桌面游戏玩家可以将它与威世智的《星球大战》微缩模型放在一起,从而把它想象成那种特大号原型机器人。 |
