Thanks
Thanks a bunch for helping me organize the Decimal Cabinet thing. I also edited the FAQ (Waay out date), since they seem like they're supposed to be the big resources...
 * You're welcome, Kitteh. I'll keep working on the RDC to make it a ll nice neat and uniform. XD --Herley 08:05, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Kitty!
Been meaning to ask - you got any IMs (AIM/MSN/whatever) or anything? Just idle curiousity! --Marcus Langley 00:29, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah. MSN, Facebook, and Trillian. PM me on the forums for addys. --Herley 00:31, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

Kit Weight
The average soldier supposedly carries 65-90lbs (25-35kg) of gear, so not quite as much as she weighs... and I think most of that weight is the backpack/body armour. Just a heads up. ;) --Marcus Langley 09:52, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Right...well, anyway, I haven't researched how much her kit would actually weigh. And I think I'm allowed a little hyperbole. XD --Herley 01:13, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, assuming the bolt-action is a K98 or a Mosin Nagant that's about 8-9lbs (though I'd go with an M1 carbine or M1 Garand for capacity and semi-auto, or just an SMG), and assuming the .45 pistol is a M1911 then that's another 2.5lbs or so, probably about the same again for the 9mm, and ~1.5lbs for the holdout. That doesn't count clips for the rifles or magazines for the pistols, loaded into the weapon or spare. And bah to your hyperbole, I say! Bah! --Marcus Langley 12:36, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * The rifle's for range, so M1 Garand. So...15.5 lbs of guns. I'll check one of my FPS games for clip weights later today. --Herley 18:48, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Jagged Alliance 2 claims 0.4lbs per M1 Garand 8-round .30-06 clip, M1911 7-round .45 ACP magazine and per 15-round 9x19mm magazine. 0.2lbs per 8-round 9x19mm magazine. I'm not sure how accurate it is as a source, but given the sheer number of weapons I imagine most of them are probably fairly accurate. A Garand itself clocks in at about 9.5lbs. --Marcus Langley 19:09, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
