I'm not talking about a sentry's duties when the base gets assaulted in the night, I'm talking about a sentry's duties with regards to an infiltrator (the sort of situation where one is more likely to expect some up-close-and-personal sentry removal). Still, we've gotten into the point where we're essentially arguing over the meaning of a word, and that never gets anyone anywhere, so I'll just drop my little "arguably failed" aside. I'll still say that neck armor isn't very likely on a sentry/guard/whatever you want to call the guy the infiltrator is killing, but I think I've made my point clear enough and will probably drop it now, rather than continuing to derail this thread.

Set, does my Draw Cut suggestion look like something you'd want to use for the whole throat-slitting bit?
