Granted, it's at the expense of LIVING, but hey, they're fanatics, I guess. ;) The WORST thing about infantry is the result of standing IN THE LINE OF FIRE of a flamethrower as s/he flambe's a target. <Shrugs> Tiberium sure must sap the will to live. ;) >So do you think C&C men are stupid, ah?

C&C >are more smart, if the know they're are being attacked, they reply. WarCraft II, though glitzy, isn't as good as C&C overall.
