[SG] Suicide Bombers

What I was referring to was SG2: Small (eg light mortars) = 3" burst radius
Medium (eg medium mortars) = 4" radius Anti personnel burst is d12 vs
dispersed (infantry), d8 vs point targets (eg bunkers)

I was suggesting the demo load carried by a Kamikaze Koala should be about
like a single shell burst.

I don't think Koala's are well suited to combat. They had some koalas at a zoo
near my folks house and the keepers very adamant that we NOT make a lot of
noise around them... it could have agitated them to a point that it
drastically reduced their will to live...

Sending Koalas into combat is probably like stuffing a marshmallow into an
electrical socket.

You can also scale this a bit:

Suicide Dogs/Pigs/etc would be about a 1.5" blast.

Suicide People (Also apes, etc): 2"

Suicide Cows/Dogs/Mules: 3"

Suicide Elephants: 5"

G'day,

They must only send you the nice well behaved ones that need a break from
their overbearing relatives;P

Vicious koalas must be one of those "only overseas" things we Americans don't
"get".

Like the French *shudder* think Jerry Lewis is funny.

English come up with ideas like vicious bunnys with great huge teeth that go
"SNAP!" and Holy Hand Grenades. (Not saying Monty doesn't rule all forms of
Humor, but it is out there in the netherworld of thoughts that probably ought
not to exist.)

And Aussies have Koalas with great huge claws that go "SLASH!"

Americans, we uncreatively satire musical talent by calling what the "boy
bands" put
out as "songs".  Even Saturday Night Live is un-funny anymore...

Actually I was being quite literal! Wombats, possums and koalas are not quite
as bad as quolls, but they're not something I'd want to play with on a regular
basis.

Of course not! They're wild critters! You don't just start playing with
critters without expecting them to get honked off!

I wouldn't play with a Raccoon but I also don't think they're vicious... Not
like a badger or wolverine...

Looked up quolls on a website... not something to try to hand-feed.

G'day,

I do realise that;)

I've never had anything to do with racoons, but I've handled badgers and
wolverines... much prefer to tussle with them than a koala.

Or get anywhere near on a regular basis... there was a rather loud sigh of
relief all round one day when I was helping out on a project
radio-collaring
quolls and this particularly big and annoyed male flexed his muscles and
busted the cage trap into bits.

Au contraire, hands are one of their favourite foods. It's easy
