<div class="IPBDescription">I've been wondering about this</div> if you have a pack of gorges, say 4-5, and they can get in a vent close to marine base, is it possible to use the 400 range that the healing spray has to do a alien seige of the marine base?
think about it, HS does 16 damage, pair that with a couple (couple of pairs) of gorges...
this rather humerous idea has been running rampant thru my brain, is it possible?

2 gorges running parallel healspraying nonstop.
-> slow moving long range attack and defense support that is hard to kill.
everything else is called "gorge rush" and works fine when every gorge acts as part of the team.
Healpray range is large but not as large as siege range.
you cant really <i>rush</i> babblers.
but you can mass them with a full gorge team (<b>very fun.. especially to watch and <i>especially</i> if your on aliens</b>
that's why no-one uses spit ya know :o
THE GORGE IS OVERPOWERED <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
"Good day, ladies and gentlemen.
I have to inform you of plans we discovered were plotted right here within the United States to lay a 'siege' on American military personel. This 'siege' would be carried out by a hithero unknown weapon of mass destruction, misleadingly labelled 'healing spray', that's being launched from 'Gorges', apparently some kind of smallest-scale launch ramp. These ramps are apparently so versatile that they can be deployed in ventilation shafts, but yet have the impressive range of, as our intelligence reports '400', which we assume are miles.
Therefore, we decided to take immediate steps on neutralizing this threat on the security of our homeland by eliminating the possible terrorist our intelligence gave the codename 'sniping hare', and shutting the site on which the plan was developed down.
Furthermore, we plan on sealing all ventilation shafts in the United States, and began negotiations with our neighbours to do the same with all shafts within 400 miles to our borders.
Thank you, and may god save us all."

No matter how far or little range the heal spray has. A gorge can not win by a surpise attack.
Best surprise attack ever on a gorge:
About 2-3 nights ago on Tanith. Marines relocated to Waste Handling and lots of got killed at once. Commander does Distress Beacon and everbody who was dead started at the original Marine spawn (6-10 marines came alive again) only to see a Gorge working on a RT. Lol poor thing. It heard the spawn noise..it slowly turned to it's right and got met by several hundred rounds of LMG fire -ROFL omg that was the best gorge kill ever hehe-
I know that the gorge rush is something very cool, and a few gorges in a vent w/ adren and babblers annoys and eventually (long time) over powers the marines in the end.
I'm think of this as a 2 hive strategy, not w/ babblers or onos, etc.
A gorge can be a very potent weapon. never underestimate a gorge.
how far does healing spray go?
can I get a mod/dev/ to comment on this as they can say for sure?
p.s. I think it says that heal-spray has effect through walls/vents but whenever ive tried to heal aliens inside vents it hasnt worked...
How much damage does Heal Spray do and how much does Spit do?

spit 20
heal 16

Hit spray usually doesn't do **** to you if you are a Marine. One time I had a gorge oh lets say about 15-20 ft away from me firing spit and we where both standing still. I never took any damage, another time on Hera a gorge was 5ft from me with spit. Took no damage, lol.
