Gah.
Not having trained much with Quake-- or either Alex for that matter-- she was startled, to put it mildly, by the exact effect. With a name like Quake, she expected that, but actually seeing and experiencing it was another thing. Ananda nodded, it made sense-- it wouldn't be worth it since actually taking the item in question, intact, would be a mission far more difficult than just killing thugs or extracting prisoners. After all, objects couldn't move, and who knew how huge this thing was. New tech tended towards clunkyness, simply because good engineering produced simplicity and elegance, which newly engineered stuff wasn't that refined yet.
They also tended to explode.
