doesn't stop the police and security services deploying jammers that aren't FCC certified (they'll never get certified because their single purpose is to interfere with radio communicaitons). Doesn't stop me from keying a bleedbox at 934MHz when I'm out on my bike either, you should be driving not fucking Facetiming with your lover.
(not "Kill Chain" or "Twilight", I'm thinking the one where a drone bird (a toy, pretty much) was used to drop something into the yard of a Federal slam and McGee has a play with the retrieved vehicle, much to the amusement of DiNozzo).
yes, it was actually mostly due to collectors writing Whiz Kids and pretty much demanding unpainted figurines that prompted them to release limited edition pewters and regular-run plastics. Lesson learned, though, all their subsequent sets came in two runs: painted or unpainted plastics, with pewters sold separately.
You read that right. One of these: https://www.vat19.com/item/air... will kill a drone from 40 feet. And that's basically a breadbag cannon. A three inch plastic pipe and a can of butane gets you an air cannon with a range of a couple hundred feet. Drop in a tennis ball, you're firing that thing a quarter mile with a kill range of one hundred yards.
yep, it was always expensive. The following is UK RETAIL: The Mage Knight: Rebellion display case on its own was £24, the figurines themselves ran £8 for five randoms (four single-click and one double) in booster packs, or nine singles or seven singles/one double, rules and dice in the starter packs for £14, and the Atlantis War Machines expansion (the first one with the HUGE tabletop tanks with six discs) ran £30 EACH. A decent tournament army with one tank could easily set you back two or three hundred quid. Quadruple that if you build with trades rather than boosters. Custom paint jobs were standard fare in pro tournaments, notwithstanding the fact that the first edition figurines were ALL hand painted out of the factory. The second run moulds had unpainted figurine sets as an order option.
My company launched Mage Knight: Rebellion (the first commercial Heroclix system game) in the UK waaay back when (2000), in fact that was the world premiere at one of Sheffield's largest Conference Centres (I booked out all four floors and filled the building beyond capacity. Apparently people were getting turned away at the door during the official launch tournament finals).
they fucked up WOTC, which fucked up M:TG and all the other games they had going at the time. I mean, whose fucking bright idea was it to introduce those utterly useless giant modifier cards?? Like it's not frickin' obvious you're playing one of those in a match...!
mice don't generally like cheese. They prefer dark chocolate.

what about flights to the ISS? Doesn't that count as two flights?
E.g., launch and insertion, docking. That's one. Undocking, reentry and landing, that's two.
Between docking and undocking, the SOV isn't actually in flight - it's attached to a larger vehicle which for all intents is actually stationary since it requires a pod equipped with an engine docked to it to even perform any sort of major attitude change. Hell, the clue is in the name, the "International Space Station". Ergo, the flight crew is pretty much on an unpowered raft in international waters while lashed to the port anchor.
any bee or wasp sting to the neck is potentially deadly and must be treated as such whether or not you're aware of the patient having an allergy.
(I've been stung six times in the past three weeks by wasps, five of those were to the neck, one to the thigh. Why do the psychotic little cunts go for the neck??).
My diet is severely restricted (as in I'm pretty much restricted to fresh as a result of what I would call a severe allergy to aspartame (we're talking crippling migraines that last a week) and some weird reaction to foods containing sunset yellow (so no more cadbury's creme eggs for me, no loss since they changed the recipe to that awful faux-fondant) that leaves me wired but completely physically drained.
Eye for an eye does hold up under colour of fighting a righteous cause, like a war.
So, providing the vigilante has previously published a written declaration of war on burglars, well, anything goes including but not limited to random-drop air strikes on weddings and ambulance convoys, communications disruption, and targetted snatches of ranking enemy combatants - for example, regional kingpins.

at 1500 feet you won't even hear a micro UAV like a quadcopter, much less see it.
I thought this sounded familiar.

that is precisely how it plays out. It's on the BCI DVD edition as an easter egg audio play.

Salvatore should stick to formula fantasy like Star Wars. Have you read Dark Elf? I got partway through Homeland and left it, it really is TERRIBLE.
Coming in October: GURPS, The Motion Picture.
You fuckin' asked for it. >:]
curse: the black chick with the furkini turns out to be Beyonc^H^HNathan Lane.
(I'm a bastard).
I dunno, I'd like to see Penelope Cruz get eaten out by a grue.
I'll play the grue.
hm... sounds like every other movie that turns out to be a game that'll never get launched ever, like Zathura and Jumanji...
anyone know what happened to the Heroclix system?

if they'd found oil or gem-quality diamonds or auric nuggets in the Apollo samples, you can sure as shit bet they'd be on Apollo MXCVI by now.

3.31 for a steak sandwich and coffee on the way in?
the symbol that looks like a snake wrapped around a tapered sword doesn't mean "Snake wrapped around a sword" either, it means "diabetes".
