Re: Not bad.

In Response To: Re: Not bad. (General Battuta) : I'm sure the line delivery can handle it. This sounds a lot like the sort of attitude that got you the dialog you're rewriting, no? : I've released a product that made extensive use of much more complex military : terminology and it still got rave acclaim. And BSG did the same. Both : trusted the audience to figure out what was happening. I think Reach can : do the same. How would one remote det a charge that's inside of a ECM barrier? If those countermeasures are worth a damn, I suspect one wouldn't. I do like how you continue to tie things in, but be careful of being too attached to your dialog. There's a lot of good feedback and if you dismiss it based upon your own feelings about what you've written, you're likely to get in a situation where an active part of the community thinks you've missed the point (sound familiar?)... /YMMVS SPSFD
