i've seen proof of sligs smoking cigarettes, talking to each other in an understandable language, they know how to load a gun, use it, maintain it, they can teach and command slogs, they can tell the difference between Abe and a random mudokon. i think thats enough proof that sligs aren't as stupid as you would think; they are actually quite smart.
Fartuess, i think you are taking the phrase in the AO manual "Gunned-up slugs in mechanical pants, with itchy trigger-fingers and room temperature IQ's." for gospel. i think it was intended as an exaggeration to show that sligs sometimes become overexcited and/or narrow minded before running into mines or falling into holes during pursuit.
@AlexFili: that was a good chapter, i'd forgotten about a mate for Skillya. it reminds me a bit of the victorians where they used to kiss the queen's hand. good show!
