Seeing as how Pete expects Thunda to get hosed over Xmas, here's a few
thoughts:

Lefty and his drones will be at the showdown, to keep an eye on things.
He will turn up very early (at least one hour) to check the place for
ambushes from a distance, then set his surveillance drones (A Condor and a
Condor II) up to monitor what happens.

He expects Easy or one of the bounty Hunters to take Thunda down, BUT:

Lefty isn't as generous as V-12 in letting Thunda leave the place
alive. If Thunda gets through whoever else turns up, the big trog will
attack with his combat drones (A rotodrone and a Strato 9 [ask me about that
sometime]) as well as his vehicle mounted weapons. No, he doesn't have a
sense of fair play when it comes to people like Thunda.

As for V-12's drones, if they don't move on Lefty's drones, the
courtesy will be reciprocated.

Lefty will have a certified credstick for 185k for whoever takes Thunda
down. Getting the other 180k is their problem.


Anybody have any problem with any of this?
