Argh! How did I miss this last night? Another score for Mladen. I dig on the "flying" pics. I image you mech hovering and just picking off targets one by one. Ah the thrill of a new mech...I'm going to sit back and soak up some inspiration. Bryce (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
