The rail gun is the best, it looks sweet, can anyone in the know please
explain what rail guns shoot and how they fire? I used two huge ones in my
sixlegged mech, but only because the ones Mladen used looked cool, not cuz I
knew what they were (Pathetic I know, I think I've broken that habit now though)

They use electromagnetic fields to propell a projectile at high
speeds.  I've been meaning to put up a tech page on my site, just
haven't gotten to it yet.

I really like the Kama, Lot's of wingy bits, and it's small, light, hmmmmmmm...
Do the wings fold down to it's side?

Nope, the FAW- and AA- designated units are fixed-wing.  Well, fixed at
the shoulder, so there is some movement, around the x and y (but not z)
axes.

Oh this looks perfect for a mech
carrier, Mark/Mladens/whoever else's carrier idea has limitless
possibilities I think.

I originally intended to have a carrier similar to that idea, but with
hooks from an overhead rail, much like the static-line rail in
sky-diving.  That's why I built the original BA-13 Nodatchi with the
"handle" on top.  (http://www.geocities.com/vrey_oneida/nodatchi.html


The zweinhander is cool too, I really like the pic of it holding up the
motor bike, very nice, now just put a minifig in the seat of the cycle!

He'd fall off!  :]

Very good job with both of your mechs, I look forward to seeing your future
creations!

Thanks, more coming in a week or two.  :]
