In Response To: Blizzard meets Bungie? (rpb3000)

: Why in Blizzard's StarCraft user's manual is their a picture of a marine
: with the word Mjolnir inscribed on his gun? Just something I noticed the
: other day... I think it's somewhere around page 17, but I could be wrong
: on that part.

As much as I'd like to criticize Blizzard (and they COULD still have copied it) it is much more likely that they got the name from the same place Bungie did.

Mjolnir was the name of Thror's (from Norse Mythology)hammer. Thus it would not be a bad name for a weapon.

Exactly the same reason that Bungie used it.
