BATTLIN’ BATRACHIANS:
A 100-WORD WAR STORY

Every advance in technology brings with it, it seems, advances in Man’s ability to murder his fellow man. From sharpened flints to projectiles and bombs of increasing destructiveness, we have forced Science into service as the handmaiden of bloody Mars.

We have harnessed the forces that power the stars, all for the ability to vaporize whole cities.

Today, inspired by an ancient Biblical plague, modern technology brings us the latest in bioengineered weaponry.

Picture it: Gene-spliced carnivorous amphibians the size of Volkswagens, skin exuding deadly toxin, running amok amongst our enemies.

Cry “Havoc,” and let slip the frogs of war!
