I agree 110% with James! Look at the Cold War for example, both the U.S.A. and U.S.S.R. had enough nuclear weapons to annihilate the world, but did they? Deterrence is what prevented both nations from even thinking about launching their arsenals. To (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Speaking for myself - I have tried to stay away from building mecha - for the very reasons that Bobby mentions. A mecha without a weapon built from LEGO is a pretty cool thing.
