God damn... the plot diagram I have for this thing looks like the force diagram for a binary star system.

There is no word harsh enough for this. No verbal edge sharp and cold enough to set forth the flaying needed. English is to young and the elder languages of the earth beyond me. ~Frigid

So, a nasty little ritual to weaken the English and give the Welsh an easy victory.
I wonder what this will mean for Frost's future...

I would just like to say that if Amy Chan had been there instead of Yancy, she wouldn't have gotten her ass kicked so badly. Also she would've been loudly wondering why there were so damn many robots and why they were built so stinking tough. Because I was wondering that myself.

Have you ever audibly tried to chew out your own written characters for their flaws, say, their stupidity? Because I did say "damnit, Yancy" a few times as I wrote this. If only those PSAs were in-universe...

Damn it Yancy I saw half of that crap coming. Note for all want to be heroes. If you don't have a compelling reason to fight the bad guy (hostages, fate of the free world, personal well being) Don't. Especially if they challenged you to the fight. Odds are they studied up on killing you and prepped the ground. Withdraw and make them come to you.*

Why am I not surprised they didn't even have an objective before launching an attack?
I would suggest handing them a copy of the Art of War but supposing they could ever wash enough of the idiotcy out of their head to pay attention we don't really need them to be competent.

Nice finish Amy.
