[HoE] Re: Tech Levels

[John Higginbotham <jahiggin@orion.starlink.com>]

	Hmm... okay, I just heard someone on the list say that wounding an
enemy ties up more resources than killing one. That makes sense to me. So,
taking that arguement one step further, if wounding is more effective than
killing, wouldn't weapons research become geared towards doing just enough
damage to take Joe Average out of the fight without killing him? That
might explain why we don't see more deadly weaponry in HOE.
	(Although, I highly doubt Shane & Co. thought it out that far.)
