FUJI 17,328 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Do the Greys kill the Reds or just chase them away? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trenchfoot 4,243 Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 greys are stronger/bigger and drive them out. they also carry a virus that kills reds. either way they are fecked Quote Link to post Share on other sites
