Re: [HOE] Unity Spoilers in Lost Colony

[Brother Bones <brbones1@yahoo.com>]

One thing that comes to my mind is that if someone is
using AP rounds on a spaceship they are doomed from
the start (AP rounds will go right through the hull).
So any smart posse member from the wasted west will
not be using AP rounds-arguably they may not be using
any projectile weapon at all.

Just a thought,
