Re: Full Metal Asgard

"This [indicate staff weapon] is a terror weapon, it is designed to 
intimidate the enemy, this [indicate P-90] is a soldier's weapon, it is 
designed to kill the enemy." Col. O'Neill, recent episode.

The only people who seem to be able to hit anything at any range with a 
staff are Teul'c and Master Bratac [sic] and they're not only major 
characters, but also warriors of vast experience. Anything that does get

hit, is toast.	ROF is very low. I like the musket analogy, there are a 
number of scenes where masses of jaffa charge SG troopers and get cut up

badly.

I'd say go for it through Netflix.

We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade
and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are
hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of
our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are
willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we
intend to win, and the others, too.
