Very nice. I like the unique use of the knives/daggers as toes. I'd hate to be kicked by THAT bugger. Good job, as always. James (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey! If you are anti-gun (or anti-Super-Soaker for that matter), skip looking at this. However, it is for fun and the text on the page explains my take. (URL) Anchikoski randy@viclug.tzo.com (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.build) !!

I suppose, but wouldn't that be terribly inefficient? It would likely be simpler and cheaper to use a different type of weapon. And in the military, your weapon was made by the lowest bidder. ;^) ~M (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
