Title: Murphy's Laws of Combat: 10 - If the enemy is in range, so are you.
Rating: G
Summary: There are times when having a sword as your main weapon can be a bit worrying.

The problem with being in SOLDIER, Zack realised, was you were expected to get very much up close and personal with the monsters you were fighting. This was fine when you were up against something small, like a Touch-Me frog; or something relatively weak, like a Hellhouse. In those cases, speed and reach combined with the weight of the sword to make a SOLDIER relatively invincible.

This thirty-foot-long Midgar Zolom, on the other hand, might be a bit trickier...

	Pffft. Silly Zack, a Midgar Zolom won't be a problem. After all, you can hardly miss the damned thing. And really, if you can hit a friggin' touch-me with that damned pig-sticker you're in no trouble. <3 (Reply to this) (Thread)

	chuckle Well, there is that. I think the thing which might be worrying him is more getting that first hit in, and then getting out of range before the silly thing has time to realise it's dead. (Can you tell it's been a loooong while since I last actually saw the game?) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	As stated previously, it had been a while since I'd last played the game when I wrote this. I've since had at least two encounters with "Touch Me" frogs, and I'm strongly reconsidering their difficulty level - I figure it should be at least five levels higher. (Reply to this) (Parent)
