Yeah, the AP was something I forgot to ask about, but wouldn't it be a bit
higher?  I mean, I'd imagine that they were designed to be used even in hard
terrain, so one would think that the AP would be something like 3, which
would probably be enough to get through at least relatively soft rock.
Also, how fast does it take for them to deploy?
