Umm Sarge? You do realize all of that stuff would be about as usefull as bring a kinfe to a gunfight. Better luck trying to engage a Metal Storm unit with a pocket knife. Personally i would not risk trying to ride this out in anything less than a Bolo Mark XXX combat unit.

Ahh... that's the one with the battery of infinite-repeaters, and the back-up vest-pocket crater gun in the glovebox, right?

I will re-state for the record- In truth, that rambleing was mostly gratuitous gun and bomb porn for no other reason than who and what I am- I am more likely to be concerned about a mixer for the tequila than anything that might offend the natives... but as I was going through the TM on forward observation posts and their TO&E, I figured I would go full regulation just for giggles. Keep a low profile, get ready to duck or run... ought to survive nicely...

All that said, there's reasons I'm using an Out-Of-Phase Pocket. Thanks to my handy-dandy Portable Pan-Dimensional Portal with optional soft-serve attachment (as any who've haunted the old X-E forums will remember), I can be right there without being there. Although cousin Shelly might still be able to smell a hot pile of fresh frybread just a dimension or two away.

Why does Jin's Bikini top have the same light pattern as Kathrine's eyes?
Now I think Jin's boobs are staring at me.
And I think they might be angry.

I remember Jin wearing something similar in January of 2011... beginning here:
http://wapsisquare.com/comic/that-easy/
Then there was the dreaded search for a new island, the sea urchin incident and volcano where she was wearing a kick ass Bikini... beginningin February of 2012 here:
http://wapsisquare.com/comic/twelve-vortices/
The original Sea Urchin incident...
http://wapsisquare.com/comic/crack-it-open/
There was a piece of artwork Paul did about this incident too... but I think it was on ebay...

That suit did not reveal Jin's "underboobs" (as 'Sali mentioned a day or two ago). This one rides a bit higher.

And when you gaze long into Jin's chest Jin's chest also gazes into you. Then comes the slap.

So, wait. Just what Golem powers does Jin still have? I know she's mortal and destructible, but can she still throw a golf ball all the way to Venice...
the short way?
Yeah, I know that was Bud, but I can't think of any major display of strength from Jin.
Because I'm pretty sure if a squishy human exerted that much force on their body, they'd rip themselves apart in a spectacular fashion. It's already been documented that the full power of normal human muscles can rip themselves away from the bone and stuff. What happens when a squishy Golem tries?
Ludicrous Gibs?

I think Jin is tuned down to Very Strong Mortal.

Illiad's link is too subtle, and Sarge needs a backward facing catapult, with the cup dug into his foxhole... just in case.

A catapult? Might want to go for either a torsion design, as opposed to a trebuchet... Or maybe a ballista. A trebuchet is hard to compact, at it requires a lever and a big counterweight. Torsion catapults can be modified using modern materials. I suggest two thick cylinders of vulcanized rubber. A ballista might generate a fatal G load, on second thought.
