I really wonder why the Brits dont think the Germans are the worst.
You know because we still have Hilter here and all happily living our

Normally eating nothing for 24h is no problem for me.
However, i have to drink something of course.
If i get hungry, i simply supress it and after some time
i no longer feel hungry.
Typically, i only eat one meal (dinner) a day, some fruits and
some chocolate.

Something, that is especially annoying about the omega particle:
You can "beam" it. If you can beam it you can easily replicate it, so why is it so "hard" to produce?

For every decent 3D programm you will have to invest some time (10h+) to
learn the basics. I wouldnt call Blender professional, but you can get quite
good results out of it.

In any case it's the best free 3D software out there, which provides
the most functionality.

Ah.. "Hth" means hand-to-hand.

And if HtH is really HAND to HAND with no weapons at all then it's the predator, too.

If the Predator gets his typical close-range arsenal (wrist blades, combistick, disk for close combat, cloak) then i voting for predator. Neocron has never mentioned the predator gets no cloak. In fact, he only said no plasma caster for the Predator. So we still have the net-gun, spear-gun, disk (fo...

It's possible that the cloned tissue would lack whatever special properties are necessary for a Force user, so wholesale replacement of his various ruined parts with clean cloned versions would actually make him weaker in the Force. But isn't the same true for mechanic parts? I mean after some time...

I think the torso being big is no problem, because
most of it is hollow anyway. Anyway, thanx for outlining it.
Scaling up the legs doens't take much time with a 3D model :D

Here's another version with 10% size increase of the legs.

Just one thing somebody should think about when doing a performance comparison is size. Even though Lexx cannot destroy planets with the same violent effect than the DS an might have some other drawbacks, it has a ridiculous small size/volume compared to a DS. Based on a performance/size ratio Lexx ...
