<54th>Hellfire

He may not have used them against Americans (he knew that would be a grave mistake) but he used them against his own people. Â

When I was 14, I learned about chemicals and chemical reactions and learned that a plenty powerful laser could be made, and that its possible to make a laser rifle using chemical reactions rather than electricity. The Idea was nothing new at the time but that was before I learned about the military laser programs. In any case, Franze is right. Â Age doesnt matter, its how your mind is built.

So you want to start another war ? Excuse me but I have to ask that. How old are you ? Have you been soldier ever ? And where do you get your knowledge from ? I think that North Korea should be negotiated with. Â If the U.S. needs to do it alone, then so be it. Â If North Korea fails to back down, then the U.N. should authorize airstrikes and further isolate the North politically and economically. Â If North Korea persists in its pursuit of nuclear weapons, then the Korean War should go hot again. Â After all, it never ended, the U.N. (key members at least) is still at war with North Korea. The Negotiating part would be far better off if China would side with the US, but you can never trust a communist anyway so it really doesn't matter. Russia needs to put pressure on too, after all, North Korea is just across their border.

In any case, we aint joining that court.

Your profile says you´re 21. Like I said, age hardly matters.

Well its too late for any of the far left to do anthing about it now. I know about the US, Saddam, and WMDs, but the US, funding terrorists? do you have a single fact to back that up? Saddam amy not have been allied to Al Queda but he is allied to the Palistinian terror groups as I said. As for the botulinum toxin, it was all over the media. Just search Fox New's website, you'll find it.

Oh, you'll see vague decriptions on various websites, as well as on programs like Future Wings and Modern Marvels. They talk about it, but obviously they do not describe the methods. Want proof? well theres a whole world-wide-web out there...

Im 23, duh, but that hardly matters. As for where I get my info from, I get it from my cousin, my dad who was in the military and of course from Fox News

Lies? Nah. Seriously, everyone knows Saddam has WMDs. Its a matter of time before they're found. I cant belive no one seems to remember the Botulinum toxin they found at a terrorist camp in Northern Iraq. The Goverment sought help before the war, but only Spain and the UK answered. Everyone else in just sat on their asses as Saddam developed WMDs, hid WMDs, brutalized his own people, funded terrorists (maybie or maybie not Al Queda, who knows, but he did support the Palistinian terror groups).

Im not a soldier but my cousin is.

Yeah well, our Bradley Fighting Vehicle is far superior than the Canadian-made LAV. More armor, more firepower etc. Â

Chirac deserves a brooklyn-style beating. He continues to act the way he does even as his own country was attacked the other day by that bombing.

I agree and stand behind Bush. The Internation Criminal Court and the UN are just puppets for nations who care more about money and whining to us americans than fighting terrorists. My cousin is over there in Iraq right now, risking his life for both americans our "allies" (well at least Spain, and the UK are with us). While they're fighting people who would repeat 9/11 or worse, and being sniped at by ba'ath party loyalists, the far right nations do nothing but bicker and whine over Iraq's "debts" even as France itself was attacked the other day with that bombing, probebly by Al Queda.

Thats one thing about the russians, they dont copy other nation's designs, they make their own (and some very good ones too I must admit). The Chinese F-22 will be obsolete by the time they develop it. Â There are ways to defeat stealth, needless to say, those are even more secret than the stealth aircraft themselves.

I personally think North Korea should be attacked. Kim Jong Il does not pose a threat directly to the US or its allies but he probebly will sell his nukes to terrorists who themselves would use them against the US and its allies.

My favorite is the Territorial Arms LRB-90 Punisher carried on the gear's shoulder in the image My real life favorite is this this one below:

Well... You can either, A) Ignore them or B) put up with them  As for "real army addons" I should be making one in the future, but its not "real" as he "orders"... http://home.sprintmail.com/~accc/_uimages/Miya_Sogabe_Color.jpg Her name is Miya Sogabe, a woman I drew back in 2001 for a Heavy Gear story, you can read her biography at either mine or Franze's site.

It will be awhile, the Draco aint done yet, but its looking great

Im suprised you guys knew about HG, everywhere I went before noone heard of it lol. Yeah the magnets repelling eacgother, thats how it works. Â Only these repel the ground. Â Only possible on Terranova due to the planet's peculiar properties (it can be done here on earth, lab tests prove it but require a lot more energy, they did it with animals though, takes about 100 MW to suspend a frog, and we're talking about ships of 80,000 metric tons). The Stiletto is a corvette armed with a Heavy Railgun, it is called the Tenaceous class. Â Its a small patrol/support landship. Â I do not know the rest of its armament. The Raptor is a light cruiser/patrol landship, called the Raptor class, that particular one is the first of its kind. Â It is armed with a Heavy Railgun, 12 artillery missiles (short range cruise missiles for use against other ships and fire support), and 2 laser turrets, each turret has two linked Heavy Laser Cannons, just one HLC can put a big hole through anything short of the frontal armor of a Main Battle Tank. The Aries is a destroyer armed with a turret bearing a 250 mm cannon, which has a range of 24km and a blast radius of 150 meters, and has several small turrets with 120 mm Field Guns in addition to the usual array of defensive laser turrets (Light Laser Cannons) and missile launchers (Heavy Anti-Tank Missiles as the north prefers to use over artillery missiles), it is called the Victory class. The Draco is an assault carrier/rapid intervetion ship which bears twice as much firepower and 50% more vehicle-carrying capacity as ships its size. Â It is not as powerful nor can it carry as many vehicles as a Vortex class but makes up for it in speed and versatility. Â It can carry 30 gears, 2 sriders, 2 Main Battle Tanks, 2 Light Battle Tanks, 2 caimans, 1 Assault helicopter, 4 Evil Eyes (armored jeeps capable of forward observing duty), and 2 Quetzals (southern fighter-bomber, which is similar in many respects to the real life F/A-18E Super Hornet, especially with its leading-edge extension). Â It is named the Khan class. Â Its main armament is 5 150 mm Cannons, 2 LLCs, and a vertical launch deck at its rear that launches large artillery missiles (Very Heavy Artillery Missiles), which can puch through the weaker areas of enemy landships. The Vigilance as franze pointed out is a full-sized carrier called the Vortex class. Â While not one to enter combat unless absolutly nessecary, it has two turrets with 3 250mm Cannons each, 2 HATM launchers with 10 missiles each, and 6 defensive laser cannons (LLCs). Â It can carry twice as many vehicles and troops as the Draco but its built for a different purpose. All landships have point-defense anti-missile cannons.

Anti-grav ships? you must mean landships. Those use a combination of turbines and magnetic fields (if a magnetic field is strong enough, anything will react to magnets, we're talking 4 Gigawatts + here and powered by at least two fusion reactors).

ROFLMAO!!!!!!! Those are actually fun. Â Really though, I dunno about everyone else but the engine limitations dont bother me. Â I mean, so what if gears cant walk? well in the boardgame and computer games gears have treaded and/or wheeled feet for a reason: to move faster and they will use it whenever possible. Â The gears, striders, and tanks are perfect IMO, prefectly true to HG and I think they'd make the Heavy Gear 1 development team proud. They look "toyish" because of their camos, but do not underestimate how well they work, trust me. Â In WWI battleships had camos like that and before radar they worked at breaking up the visual signature. Â
