  Quick BrikWars update
 
Hi everybody, Sorry I've been slow about answering weapon stats questions... I'm too obsessed with waiting for my Little Armory shipment to arrive to worry about mere 'regular' weapons. Also I've been busy, trying to get the Nanofleets, Medieval (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jun-03, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)
