At least invisibility doesn't work with tech... but Improved bends light around people... and affects tech... so you use Ultrasonic Vision to see them... so they cast silence...
I'm resorting to pressure plates and trip lines to create a facility defense to catch invisibles... Speaking of that... can suppressive fire stretch it's 10m from close to far instead of from side to side? |
