		The hilt served primarily to block opponents weapons, and possibly trap the weapon for disarming.

		The greatest problem for the partisans was that they were encumbered with a very large number of wounded from many previous battles, and as a result of slow movement they were encircled.
		Partisans did receive some help from British later on, but they hated using Brit weapon, and used only their manufactured weapon (M-14 was standard rifle, locally produced under most severe circumstances) and captured German equipment (MG 42 or 34 - I believe 42 - got the lagendary reputation and nickname "arac", i.g.

	Unrealistic and Partisan from New Delhi Press File - August 12, 1999
		An overwhelming majority of the members decided at the third meeting that this draft or its approach was not acceptable and a fresh draft was to be prepared by a drafting committee.
		One is that it is unrealistic in terms of seeking India’s accession to the NPT as a non-nuclear weapon state (although at the very last stages this was partially modified as an “ultimate” goal).
		At the end the majority view prevailed that the NPT is in serious danger of unravelling because the central balance of obligations (of those who have the bomb to give up and those that don’t have it not to acquire it) has not been achieved even after more than three decades of promises.

		The controls are as simple as possible: You move with the analog stick, fire with one button, and change polarity with the other.
		Switch between them with the push of a button; when you're fl you absorb fl shots, and do double the damage to white enemies, when you're white the reverse is true.
		Absorbing shots charges your super weapon, a nifty little homing laser that doesn't seem to kill as many enemies as you think it should.

		Mainhand weapon should be 1:2 ratio and 20 or less delay by level 51, with lower delay being more important than higher damage.
