Tips For Fighting A Merseian (If You Are A Tigery)

The Game Of Empire, CHAPTER NINETEEN.

(i) Jam a forearm into his mouth to prevent a shout.

(ii) Don't try to kill with a karate chop because the anatomy might be different from human.

(iii) Catch his right arm before he can draw his blaster. (Are Merseians right-handed?)

(iv) Hook claws into his tail which he can use as a club or to thump a signal.

(v) Watch out for the spinal ridge which can bruise your arm.

(vi) Because he is a vertebrate, you can kill him by breaking his neck.

Kaor, Paul!

All this makes me think Targovi was either trained in how best to fight a Merseian or took the trouble to do so on his own initiative.
