As a long-time Monty Python fanatic, (see my signature) I shall be very disappointed if there in no place in Aurora for a Holy Hand Grenade.

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again.

Can't we just poke her with the Soft Cushions? I mean, as long as we've got the stuffing all up one end, it should be all right.

Been 2 weeks, and the voting makes it clear that most think I'm a Looney. I'm so proud.

My feeling is that the Holy Hand Grenade is only useful if you are up against those nasty killer rabbits.  So, the tech HHG (Holy Hand Grenade) only becomes available if another race develops the KR (Killer Rabbit).

Be careful what you wish for. I am thinking of having space monsters along the lines of SFB at some point so you never know what might turn up :)
