I HAVE a rendezvous with Death At some disputed barricade , It may be he shall take my hand And lead me into his dark land, But I've a rendezvous with Death And I to my pledged word am true, I shall not fail that rendezvous.

I love the Tech trees Gear and the abilities and upgrades are nice(thor can do 500 damage to a single unit). The only problem I have is I can't seem to find Durable Materials, it could just be my lack of sleep.

Peristalsis: "the progressive wave of contraction and relaxation of a tubular muscular system, esp. the alimentary canal, by which the contents are forced through the system."

Faster contractions/relaxation = faster wiggle-moving. :p

The upgrades are actually on the drone and turret built by the raven.

The blue battle cruiser - missile pods

The orange battle cruiser - yamato cannon
