You're functionally invulnerable right up to the moment you're dead! You always keep your arms and legs, and you never stop being able to run around or carry/use your weapons. Very relieving, that.

367

If the leader of your country is kidnapped, don't rely on secret services or the armed forces, recruit the fucker who was fixing your pipes when you got the news!

369: With enough grit and determination, a spearman can destroy them.

You really are from the future! Tell me, am I living in a cottage in Nova Scotia, happily married with one egg and another on the way?

373: If you fight hand-to-hand, (and especially if you learn a traditional martial art, preferably Eastern in origin) you will soon develop an abnormally high pain threshold which includes the ability to shrug off bullets, frag grenades, swords and other sharp slicing implements, C4 plastic explosives, and last but not least, lightsabers. And possibly the power to shoot balls of energy from your hands.

Corollary: if you happen to be a Pro Wrestler, then not only can you use your Wrestling skills to fight legitimately on an even playing field with other combat sports, but odds are good that your grapples are the most powerful moves around, especially if they involve spinning.

385: Never trust Rock Paper Scissors-themed mercenaries. Unless they betray a killer Space Pirate. Then, anybody's absolutely fine to trust.

386: As a sort of addition to 382, if ever you end up in a life-or-death situation and 100 friendly midgets want to do nothing but help you, it's probably not a good idea to kill all 100 friendly midgets.

395. Alternatively, rip the bullet out with a stick.

396. Catapults can knock jet fighters out of the sky.

397. When in doubt, use explosives until there is nothing left of your enemies besides their smoking ashes in the crater.
