I'm not sure if we'll want more than one variety of shockshund in the mod, but at least one new variety is a great idea. I'm thinking the Babobba or Bobba would be ideal for this. We can patch it to move faster and stun only temporarily.How about a bunch of different breeds of Shikadi dogs, such as Shockuahua or Electric Retriever?
Lets not forget the the Korath police were able to arrest the Shikadi for double parking in Keen 5. This suggests a few things: they either don't know whats going on outside their own planet or they don't care, and they have the capability to remove and arrest what I guess would be a dozen or so Shikadi from their own ship.The Koraths should then be able to defeat the Shikadi less through force and conventional warfare, and more through nationalistic fervor and possibly guerrilla tactics or something to that effect.
To me, this suggests that the Korath police are THE force to be reckoned with in Korath society. If the story involves a Korath military presence, I think this should take the form of the Korath police with conscripted Korath soldiers taking the form of Citizen-Deputies or something. And like scottish clans, I imagine their are different "police departments" across Korath III that have to band together to fend off a full Shikadi attack.
