Non-Magical Books
On the Structure of Automations
This 350 page details the construction of mechanical bodies used by Automations. When one has this book available for reference while building automations bodies (using a craft (blacksmithing) or craft (armorsmithing) check) receives a +4 unnamed bonus on the check.

Applicable Battle Maneuvers
This 600 page book is one of the three books for programming Automations. In order to gain the effects of this book, you must spend a total of 24 hours reading it. This book gives the ability to program Automations to use special attacks, such as trip, and disarm. Programming a single one of these special attacks is a DC 20 Use Magic Device check. You may not grant Turn/Rebuke Undead in this way.

Detrimental Anatomy
This 750 page book is one of the three books for programming Automations. In order to gain the effects of this book, you must spend a total of 30 hours reading it. This book contains in-depth information about corporeal undead. Adding the program in this book allows a construct to critically hit an undead, even if the undead is normally immune. This may be programmed in as a DC 25 Use Magic Device check.

On the Fright of the mindless
This 1000 Page book is the final book on programming Automations. In order to gain the effects of this book, you must spend a total of 36 hours reading it. This book contains information on the undead, and how to force them to flee. Adding the program in this book allows a construct to turn undead once per day as a standard action. For the purposes of turning, an Automation has a cleric level equal to its Hit Dice. Programming this option is a DC 35 Use Magic Device Check.
