  1. Cool BatRep! I've got to get some Spugs!

    Bad outing for the home team huh? I'm really hesitant to ask this, but I must. Does anything special* happen to the captured soldiers? I remember Spugs from original 5150, nasty they were.

    * by "special" - I mean horribly gruesome and disturbing.

    Thanks!
