The "Even Arrows Can Slay a Beast - The furthest shot unspooked male Water Buffalo using any permitted Bow or Crossbow is your competition entry. Target must be hit in the heart or lungs. Other organs may be hit. Furthest shot wins." sounds really fun, but I think Andhii is going to win everyone one of them.

OMG, the evil and fearful black rifles...
Look. I understand guns don’t kill people, people kill people. And as I said it is my own opinion, and you are as welcome to yours as I am to mine. Enuff, said. ;) Respect.

Chillax, I'm not doing ad hominem here.
But as long as one is allowed to voice its opinions, others must be allowed to follow suit - even in a sarcastic fashion, as was my intention here.

An AR-15 has NEVER been used in a military capacity anywhere in the world in its history. EVER. It is not a military weapon.
You should probably check your history. ;) They were used in Vietnam (In a limited capacity), in the '60s the Army & Airforce adopted them & ordered over 100,000.
They were also marketed & sold to foreign military. They were designed specifically for military use, with the goal of meeting US military requirements to succeed the M14.
In 1981-83 I used an M16 (XM16E1), Which is an AR-15 with a forward-assist lever added, to qualify as Sharpshooter in the Marine Corps. (Missed Expert by 4 points :( )
Coincidentally, when stripping it for cleaning I noticed that stamped inside the fore-stock covers was, "Mattel"! We all got a good chuckle out of that. :lol:

Even the newer "Colt Semi-Automatic AR-15", the civilian & law enforcement model (To which I assume you refer) was used by the military. The 601 & 602 models used by the Air Force & Special Ops.

Of course, none of that means that the weapon itself should be vilified, banned, or disregarded as a viable weapon for hunting, sport shooting, self-defense, or overthrowing a tyrannical government.
It's "Tod", with one bloody 'd'!

You're gonna be waiting a while. A survey is of course a possibility although I can't see what purpose it would serve at this stage. To see which mythical creature they add for Halloween maybe.
At least I think it is time for a new reservation and new animals, which has already been more than a year since the last reservation

Usually they only share skills if the 3d model is exactly the same - and I'm not sure if that's the case here.

I doubt that another species is likely, but I would really be surprised if we ever saw a new reserve.

Your're right, that means they should share skills too, correct? Well, I stopped trying to understand this system a while ago... :?

I think it's a bug. Surely.
