Background Information

- Its gun is unique.

Strategy
- How does it fire?
- It uses a Self-Organizing Observation Log gun. When a wave hits, the Log records how far and in what direction the enemy has travelled since firing the wave. Along with that Observation, a number of situational parameters are stored. The Log is ordered in such a way that similar Observations will become neighbours. When aiming, the Log searches for such a neighbourhood of Observations and uses these to calculate the most likely future position of the enemy.

- Well...ehm... ask Jamougha :-)

- Melee? What's that?
- What does it save between rounds and matches?
- Between matches: Nothing. Between rounds: the SOOL.
