[@WilsonTurner] Thank you so much for the help :D (And if I may add my opinions on mecha, they're better when they're part organic, but then again all I know of mechas comes from Power Rangers, so eh.) 

[@Haeo] There's always one thing that struck me as odd with lightsabers that your post made me think of : how does whatever substance that makes up the slicy part in the lightsaber stop and form exactly the shape of a lightsaber? Also, it depends what material the blaster bullets are made up of, and since they look like they might be lighter than an actual bullet it is safe to assume they move faster than one. 
[@Makky] Sure! That sounds like fun and could help me un-rust my rp skills?
