Yup, though it's a bit too close for comfort with sonic pulsers, though it's
possible.  It's a bugger when a Calcinite is merely injured and then
proceeds to bear down on your troops and whack them in close quarters (hth)
combat.  One sod ran up and killed 2 of my nauts like that before now... I
say!  That's just not cricket!
