At 1 " is 100 Yds... BIG spiders! <grin>

I never thought about it in DS 2... Do Bugs have the ability to melee
AFVs?  Soldier Bugs only?  But then Warriors have nasty Beams they
'fire'
('flash'?  Uh, don't go there Beast... 'beam'? -  "The bug beams it's
beam..."Nah  - shoot?) IIRC from the book.  If they are 'fire' beams do
they count as terror weapons against infantry?

Waves of workers with warriors hidden inside the mass and only being
seen
when they shoot...  Ugly.

So would they be Size 4 for workers and 5 (or Oversized) for warriors? 
Armor 1 for workers (treat them as vehicles and infantry for assorted
weapons?) and armor 2 for warriors? 

The remnants of my mind are whirling...

Gracias,
Glenn
