Being the most knowledge of the team on the subject, I'll commence pointing:
Point to Ghost
Point to Moon
Point to Ground
Pass
GHOST is RED
MOON is RED
GROUND is RED
Blue is up!
"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow. In this game that's going to help us because he's going to go to the negotiating table with twitchy eyes and slightly too wide a grin and terrify the neighbors into favorable border agreements, one-sided tech deals and staggered NAPs."

Kevlar is usually considered armour, but it's a material that IIRC has many uses. Anyone remember anything about what other uses there are? I keep on thinking of PTFE but that has to be wrong...
I'm not sure whether to feel better or worse that I would have been useless on the Red clue as well .
Kevlar:
- Vests made from use it to protect your TRUNK (but also maybe ORGANs?)
- Can you make a PARACHUTE from this? It was my first thought but I'm now second-guessing myself.
- I suspect it's an option for armouring a HELICOPTER
- It prevents people making a HOLE in you

Parachutes were made out of silk in WW2, I have no idea why they would be made out of a significantly heavier material.
Kevlar, IIRC, is a rather dense material which deforms under shock rather than shatter, and is one of the contruibuting facors to why it is used as armour. That isn't what you want in a parachute IIUC.

I'm pretty sure Kevlar is a polymer fibre. It can be woven into a dense enough material to be bullet resistant, but I think it can also be used in lighter weaves.
Given that someone else independently thought it was used in parachutes, I feel a lot more confident in that now.

Does parachute make more sense than something that needs to be protected, such as helicopter and organ? And hole fits in terms of what NB (Kevlar) armour is supposed to stop.
