<b>Here we see Cyanide tearing into a horrid, bulbous alien resource gatherer. I am offering moral support with nearly empty sidearm.</b>

    Oh nuts.  Irrefutable proof that rob has, in fact, gotten a kill.
    Well, at least it wasn't me.   <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    that outside pic is ub3r l337, and it's kinda funny how the marines are setting up in an alien base- I just don't wanna be the bob that waltzes in there thinking its all safe and cozy only to find all those turrets.

    Yeah, they didn't last long (edit: in that AREA) in that game. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--> I have a screenshot of that area as well, it was pretty well fortified. In addition, we had HMGs by then, so what did waltz in got a REALLY nasty surprise. Was that the game I had to fend off at least 3 aliens by myself? I don't think it was, but I know I ended up managing that at some point... I do remember having a great fight with a level 2 in that room.

    Bravo to the excellent commander (who was that, btw?) for not only helping clear out the aliens, but replace them <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    Well they look great, and Stal, I'm worried about the lack of Aliens in pics than I am worried about you <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    But the only reason Aliens aren't in many pics is due to most of them only being placeholder models, so that's ok.

    Thanks for the ns goodness MonsE, I must say Ns is honestly shaping up to be what looks like to be the best designed mod ever.  I mean CS, DoD, and a few others are BIg, but are they nearly as well-thought out or designed as NS?  I'd say with certainty that NS is about 10x more complex than CS, while still remaining n00b friendly.  The old maxim "One day to learn, a lifetime to master" sure seems to ring true for this mod.  A very enthusiastic congratulations to the entire team.
