| − | The Engineer has: [[Lugermorph]], [[Golden Wrench]], [[Frontier Justice]], [[Wrangler]], and [[Gunslinger]]. Of these, only four are common.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Demoman has: [[Scottish Resistance]], [[Chargin' Targe]], [[Eyelander]], [[Pain Train]], and [[Scotman's Skullcutter]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | Of all the above, neither the Wrangler or Chargin' Targe are strictly weapons... but even if we're counting them, only the Chargin' Targe directly does damage.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you're counting the Combat Mini-Sentry separately... why? It's counted as a normal sentry gun by the game's internal stats and logging.

| |
| − | | |
| − | == Melee weapon special abilities - really necessary? ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Every single melee weapon of the Engineer has the ability to build, upgrade and repair buildings and remove Sappers. Do we really have to mention that again for every single weapon? I think it should be just mentioned once for all weapons. After all, the point of these tables is to demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of different weapons, but all the engineer's weapons can do these things equally well, so there's no advantage or disadvante here. It just clutters up the table.

It probably fires alpha or bèta rays. (radiation produced by certain radioactive isotopes, consisting of praticles rather than electromagnetic waves) I would have corrected it right away if I knew a better description myself... Any suggestions? I was thinking of particle beams, particle blasts, plasma, laser beams, energy beams, energy rays etc. [[User:K-Raider NL|K-Raider NL]] 03:51, 27 June 2012 (PDT)

Favourite Equation
Where did it come from, because it doesn't align with what appears in the paper?
First, the spec and rim should be subscripts of the k powers. As in k_{spec} and k_{rim}, in TeX.
Second, in the paper it has an additional term after the sum over i (outside the square brackets), where there is
+(n̂•û) fᵣ kᵣ a(vˆ)
