I think the M1 Enforcers were about the worst enemies to fight in the whole scenario: those guns hurt, and you can't exactly evade the shots like in M2/Inf. You also don't want to use overwhelming force to take 'em out, because you need the guns, so they end up hurting you more than they should (especially on TC). And they just look menacing. The M2/Infinity versions just weren't as dangerous, and they didn't look as alien, heads notwithstanding.

i agree with you and Yossarian about the BOB needing to be a little less obvious. I'll touch that up today.

: One thing I did notice right off, and enjoyed seeing like an old friend, was
: the UESC Marathon out the port hole on the left. Viewing your work is like
: taking an adventure into the place we all have known but have never quite
: seen in good light.

Best compliment I could ask for! Thanks, and thanks to everyone who's given me feedback on my work. I do appreciate it.

As to the Marathon: I used a plain pic of Deimos... should I add in the dishes etc. that the Marathon sprite has in the game, or leave it bare? I think the sprite was a little over the top myself.
