Recipe

	1 theoretical string	1 nanofiber cloth
	mylar scout drone

When Used

	You hold the mylar scout drone aloft and take off running towards your opponent. The drone announces, "TARGETED OPPONENT IS APPROXIMATELY <some number and measurement> FROM YOUR CURRENT POSITION." As you get near it, you start winding the string around it snowspeeder-style, and tangle it all up. The scout drone gets pretty much destroyed in the struggle.

	You hold the mylar scout drone aloft and take off running towards your opponent. The drone announces, "TARGETED OPPONENT IS APPROXIMATELY <some number and measurement> FROM YOUR CURRENT POSITION." Before you get there, however, that stupid tree eats your scout drone again. You hate that tree!

Notes

• The number given for your opponent's position is a random number, and the measurement can be:
  • akts
  • angstroms
  • attoparsecs
  • bushels
  • drams
  • furlongs
  • handbreadths
  • hogheads
  • klicks
  • knots
  • leagues
  • lines
  • pecks
  • picas
  • red shifts
  • stones
  • townships
• In combat, delevels by 10-12 levels and stuns for one round, when successful.
• Appears to fail 25% of the time.

References

• The tree that eats your scout drone is a reference to the kite-eating tree from the comic strip Peanuts that was always eating Charlie Brown's kites.
• "Winding the string around it snowspeeder-style" is a reference to the snowspeeders that used tow cables to trip AT-AT walkers in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back.
