Whack him in the head instead. Or on the hip--shattering his pelvic
girdle
will dampen his enthusiasm.
Low tech is not going to beat high tech in a stand up battle unless the
Highs have a supply problem or are vastly outnumbered by Lows who aren't
afraid of casualties. Lows who realize this are likely to adopt the
"sneak
up and slit his throat" approach. If the Highs have sufficient sensors
that they can't be snuck up on, the Lows have to wait till they get
careless, or use the Gandhi method.
