Talk:Toxin tractor

One thing I've never really gotten my head around is this: Is the 'Toxin' a chemical weapon such as a chemical corrosive weapon? Is it a biological weapon? Is it some mixture of both?

Pros and Cons of each:

1) Chemical Corrosion weapon. A chemical corrosion weapon makes sense because Toxins can damage vehicles, (rather than simply killing crew), thus indicating that whatever is sprayed, it should damage vehicles. A chemical corrosion weapon would also easily kill infantry, replicating infantry damage.

2) Biological Weaponry. This would be massively damaging against infantry, but not very damaging against buildings or vehicles (at all). Furthermore, I would expect a biological agent to spread far and wide, depending on the prevailing winds. The benefit of this approach is that the toxin is repeatedly referred to as 'Anthrax' in game. 3) I'm not sure about this, but I include it as a possibility.
