    Yup. But the Kharaa aren't real strong, if they were real one shot to the head would do it. And it wouldn't be scary because they can't get to Earth.

    In the 1940's to the 1980's the US and Russia (This isn't counting France, UK, etc.) conducted over 538 nuclear tests! Let's pretend that only 50% of these were large-scale (Greater then 100kt) nuclear weapons. Now let's say that only 60% of THAT were above-ground test. That's 161 ABOVE GROUND WEAPONS GRADE NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS.

    The earth wouldn't be covered in a blanket of ash.

    The earth wouldn't explode

    The earth wouldn't crumble to dust.

    We all wouldn't die from the fallout.

    Jesus christ people use your HEADS.

    I picture a Vietnam-esque situation. Ambushes everywhere, no real front to fight on. Americans don't do guerilla warfare, but the Vietnamese do! So Americans, British, and Germans fortify bases and key cities. Vietnamese, Chinese, and Japanese hide and do guerilla warfare on the Kharaa. The Russians start making assloads of guns for everyone and send human waves after human waves into known infected areas. The French can make some gigantic concrete line of defense somewhere while the Kharaa go around it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The french would try peace with the kharra, their ambassadors would get killed, then they'd stand around going 'But... but... it's not FAIR! Waaaaaaa!'

    well we humans would also die more easy, since now a bullet can take a human down(not kill, but down) i would think there isnt much difference to a Lerk Spike, and acid rockets would slowly but surely kill a rine, maybe except if he gets it neutralized quick.
    and this tread sorta sets the "cant get to earth" part aside..

    161 above ground very weak by today's standards in nuclear armament. GG

    As far as nuking the planet goes if I remember correctly we can tacticially nuke 1 city and have fallout so small that it wouldn't affect a village 50 miles away. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    It's true, look it up.

    The Lerk Spike wouldn't do much against Armor like it does it NS. It's just hard karatin(SP?) and that sure would never pierce metal.
