Ah - you speak of the California Barking Spiders, known for their malodorous emissions.

That and the concept art wound up being used to make the rangers (the non-airborne kind).

LoL what can I say?  I loved their text and design (the Rangers image was a great take on the turn of the century Cavalry officer) just the whole infiltrating with toxic gas launchers was a bit funny.

Though Silent but Deadly was never more true.

I might have to get some LI GL specialists and Green Stuff some coats on 'em.

(Or find someone vastly more talented then me to do it. :))

LI might be easier to use only because the Rangers would require a lot of cutting with a Dremel that might look a little dodgy...

the rangers would be a lot more appropriate given the background fluff that you have described for them, but exactness might have to give way to ease of use...

Isn't there a Ranger Sgt or something that has his arms out from the body - just cut at the shoulder and pin the new ones in.

I was recently followed by a large group of barking spiders.
