Quote: I love you isis. And my marines. Aww, thanks. 4laugh For those of us who watch action movies. A .50 cal round is fired buy a Desert Eagle as well as other firearms, and the bullets are quiet literally the size of your thumbs, so that may help with perspective on the size of the .75 cal rounds. For reference my last boy friend had this particular pistol./ hand cannon. They kind of remind me of the rounds from the movie judge dread. 3nodding Your right about the time thing this weekend Dart, I have in laws coming in gonk ( oh joy ) but as luck would have it my family is cool and doesn't really mind if I am online during the festivities or lack of them. 3nodding I don't think I will have to snarl at the guys they all know the drill. cool

hey guess what? I have no clue what you guys are talking about! but what i do know that the tau Ship rail rifles, the space ships, are drone controlled, and they controll where the bullet goes, so if it misses, it can turn around and hit again.

Sorry Dy but I'm afraid you're wrong.
Tau Railgun batteries are basically several large railguns all lined up in a row, but they're so powerful they fire one barrel at a time (with the sequence so that the first barrel is loaded by before the last barrel has fired.)
The 'tracking' ability is nothing to do with the actual amunition; it comes from the Tau's use of Skether'Quan (messenger) ships, which are basically flying radars! these give the gunners more accurate information about their targets than their own sensors do, thus they can hit things more easily.

Hello everyone, sorry to change gears so quickly here, but I've got a good laugh for anyone who is in the mood.
Dart and Colt are over my house at this time, and after hanging our for a while playing a couple games, we've gotten into this new one that we didn't really count or anything. (really just did it for something new...) and stuff happened, we went through the motions, but by the end of the game I had an Inquisitor and a Gun Servitor left. Alright, now when I made this squad I was hurting for points, so the Gun Servitor naturally wasn't really strapped for combat, and the Inquisitor...didn't have any weapons. sweatdrop
Anyway, Dart charges in these 3 Attack bites, he closes in and begins attacking. No joke, 7 turns later the squad hadn't been put to rest (by now only a defenseless Inquisitor was left) and the only thing that put them down was a call for 8 more marines to charge in and finish em' off. It was insane, good times.

Anyway, I may have to use those prints, and try really hard, I have been fiddling with it forever, and no luck with basic supplies yet. I would join the army but I still don't really understand how it works... even though I am familiar with RPG's I am not sure how the battle system works. We know how tau guns and ammo track we where talking about Marine ammo. I believe it's either the Stalker silenced round which is also used in the snipers guns or the hellfire round. One of them uses and machine spirit interface in the helmet for better accuracy.
