  2. Colt -- United States
    One could argue that the Colt's service in the Spanish American War, was, at best, modest, as compared to the use of the Gatling gun. However, the Colt did usher in the age of the machine gun in United States service (although the US Army never formally adopted the Colt it recognized the value of the machine gun) and pointed to a century in which the machine gun would quickly become a dominant arm in warfare. While this early Browning design would quickly be surpassed by more modern designs, several by Browning himself, it would still see continued manufacture by Colt and Marlin-Rockwell into the second decade of the 1900's. The Colt would see further combat service with US forces in the Phillipine-American War and the Boxer Rebellion. It fought with the Canadians in the Boer War. Some were purchased by the Mexican government it would see action during the Mexican Revolution.

Sidearm has a range of more than 15km. AIM-9L Sidewinder is an all-aspect, short-range, air-to-air missile produced by Lockheed Martin and Raytheon. The missile has a range of 15km.
  8. Star Fox Assault -- Falco Lombardi
    Compared to its predecessor, Star Fox 64, Assault is pretty short. It's only ten missions long with no branching paths. Each mission does take place in about two or three parts though. On Fichina for example, you start off on foot with a tank available and you must blow up four towers to turn off a shield. Then you get inside the climate control center and fend off robots while waiting for Falco to come rescue you. Next you're shooting down bad guys while riding on Falco's wing until it's time for the boss fight.
  9. Zulu (1964) -- Battles
    The Zulu ... allowed their opponents too much time to set up fortified strongpoints, assaulting well defended camps and positions with painful losses. A policy of attacking the redcoats while they were strung out on the move, or crossing difficult obstacles like rivers, might have yielded more satisfactory results. For example, four miles past the Ineyzane River, after the British had comfortably crossed, and after they had spent a day consolidating their advance, the Zulu finally launched a typical "buffalo horn" encirclement attack that was seen off with withering fire from not only breach-loading Martini-Henry rifles, but 7-pounder artillery and Gatling guns. In fairness, the Zulu commanders could not conjure regiments out of thin air at the optimum time and place. They too needed time to marshal, supply and position their forces, and sort out final assignments to the three-prongs of attack. Still, the Battle of Hlobane Mountain offers just a glimpse of an alternative mobile scenario, where the maneuvering Zulu "horns" cut off and drove back Buller's column when it was dangerously strung out on the mountain.
  10. Gunship
    Formed in the legendary Norman winter of '05, The Gunship is a rock trio that will someday remind the world why it started listening to rock bands in the first place. Their songs will grab your soul and refuse to let go, and if you are ever in the mood to see an amazing live show The gunship is second to none. Never forget: Forst thou rock, bring extra socks.
