The mindless Mud Golems gave Rex a profound sense of superiority.
The traps he had spent days preparing secured his victory the moment he put them to use.

Nor could he make use of the weapons carried by the hero spirits in the Warcraft System world. The Infantry Spirits wielded extremely sharp iron weapons that should, in theory, have been usable in traps.
