Hmmm...
Killing innocent aliens just to process them into food... Very sick prospect...
Not much different to what the Nazis did to Jewish people in WWII. Of course
they didn't turn them into food, but used them for "experiments".
I know that you intended for this to be satirical/funny, but to me it is kinda
disturbing. Mass killings of innocent beings isn't very humourous.
Maybe I should keep these comments to myself, but hey, it's an open forum.
I hope this doesn't turn into a major discussion about ethics, Nazism, etc.
Anyways, the ship's design is pretty cool. Maybe a little blocky here and
there, but still pretty neat.
Mladen Pejic, over and out!
