Given the technology (plasma balls == cruise missiles?) and the isolation of all major cities, the Combine could have begun the attack by knocking down all worldwide communication with EMP and then taking out the military forces one continent at a time.

I don't really know the right term for this but the idea is the following. I took a reference photo of this pistol, painted the pistol outline black and everything else white, only leaving the outline. Then I started painting by hand ( with Photoshop 8.0 ) and tried to create an illusion of...

Got two on my desk. The bigger one is a 20" Sony Trinitron Multiscan SE-II and the smaller one is a 17" Samsung Syncmaster. CRT pwnage. http://img221.imageshack.us/my.php?image=station3ev.jpg
