Its pretty interesting. Basically its a 3 man gunship with a pilot and 2 door gunners. And Henry is a mispelling of Heavy.

Just explain what the text says to the slightest detail. No harm can come of that... :D

a boomerang type disc weapon
a buckler shield weapon + it can knock back heavily armored foes
grappling hook can grapple players and hurts them a little
one grenade only
and in the pic the heavy is using the turret in the gunship

sigh. i am starting to lose faith. the grapple in my opinion is a bad move. They want to please the existing tribes players, while bringing in new ones. So far they are just bringing in new players to replace the originals. One grenade sux. grapple **MIGHT** suck. Heavy gunning is cool. Buckler shield = UNREAL TOURNAMENT!!!!! i thought this was tribes, not unreal.....

I really think the boomerang weapon described in the article is a reporter's error. They say it's the "Frisbee-o'-death disc that boomerangs back to you," which implies that it's the Disc Launcher. But we have seen plenty of pics and videos of the Disc Launcher in action and none have this boomerang effect. Of course it could have just been implemented recently, but I seriously doubt it.

The other possibility is that there is another disc type projectile weapon, which I also don't think the Dev would have. I mean, what's more confusing to newbies than having two disc weapons, with very different properties?

Finally, it could have been a weapon for a different map type, where the boomerang can be used to grab objects with, but the Grappling Hook already serves this purpose, so I don't see this as being the case either.

In conclusion, I think this was a reporter's error. There is no boomerang, and the Disc Launcher will the same as always.

i think what poisonspider is saying is that there is only one grenade type, like tribes 1.
