RE: Heavy metal thunder!

Comment comment by NomadSoul on 27 April 2008

Yeah--in a way, a wire-trailing rocket isn't too different to a wire-trailing dart from a Taser weapon. An actual lightning gun would be awesome for numerous purposes, but alas, the days of real-life ray-guns seem far off at best. The trick with beating an IED though is knowing that it's there--unless they planned to just shoot every piece of road-side debris. But if an IED were hidden inside a car or something metallic, it's hard to see how the weapon would achieve the desired effect.

Naw, I still want the job shooting rockets into clouds with Metallica blaring in the background--Unleashing the power of the Gods!
