>>>>>[All right, that cuts it.

Whatever joker dropped IC constructs in Shadowland can cut it out, and
now. We have enough problems without wondering if pieces of the
landscape are going to start killing the clients. We don't care if they
WERE set only for a specific MPCP -- programming, as well we all know,
has holes and bugs.

Eating the locals is NOT allowed.]<<<<<

they?]<<<<<

>>>>>[Four hours to flush eight pieces of IC. Constructs of two
different types -- primarily grey, one with a Trace complex, the other
one we figure to be pure combat. Both contained Black, though it
appeared to be dormant, and both were sculpted -- hmmm, one aerojet, the
other a panzer of some sort. Looked to be effective. I'd like to get
the designer on our team.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Clone that, Sysop -- what were they? An 'aerojet' and a 'panzer'?
Was the second one big, rounded edges, long squarish gun up top? Kind
of a dull basso rumble and a tang to the air set your teeth on edge?
Deep grey-black?]<<<<<

>>>>>[Your crafting? If so, I'll request that you don't stop by here
again very soon; that's not a nice thing to do to your friendly
Matrixhood infogods.]<<<<<
-- Sysop (6:43:22/9-19-54)

>>>>>[No, but it bears a marked resemblance to the IC constructs that
were responsible for the Three-Day War in the Manhattan Matrix. I lost
two good friends that day, and an informer inside the Mob.]<<<<<
