Natasha wrote:I think an ambush is complex even for humans to plan and execute. It requires actionable intel unless you're willing to sit around and wait for the enemy to stumble across you. It requires patience to wait for the enemy is in the kill zone. It requires reconnaissance and planning to find and augment the kill zone. It requires understanding where you are and were your comrades are.
Gary the Gargoyle flying around spots a NGR patrol, thanks to his really good hawk like vision.
He flies and tells his buddy Garfield the Gargoyle, eating lunch with a few other buds, Gallagher and Gabe.
Gary - "Let's get'em!"
Others - "Gargoyles SMASH!"
<all fly off and land a little ways ahead of the NGR patrol>
Gary - "We wait here. Smash'em up good!"
Others - Grinning and nodding their heads. "Gargoyles SMASH!"
Gary - "SHUT UP!! BE QUIET!!"
Others - "ok"
<little later the NGR patrol comes into view>
Gary - "CHARGE!!"
Others - "GARGOYLES SMASH!!"
Few minutes later, the NGR troopers have killed Garry and his buds. Thanks to their heavy armor, long range heavy weapons, and escorted by some Dyna-Bots the intrepid soldiers have carried the day.
Sgt. Heidenreich - "Stupid gargoyles...call it in and ask command for extraction."
(Natasha everything you said about a ambush is true. I just don't consider it complex. Detailed perhaps, but not complex. Hopefully the above comic doesn't offend but I believe it to be fairly accurate for gargoyle thinking.)
