Hmm. Um.

Okay, I'm not all _that_ familiar with the source material, but I have the impression that a fold drive requires a reflex furnace.

And a bit of googling (not being familiar with Swordbreaker's source material at all) shows it as having two parallel extensions in front.

If the implication I'm seeing isn't all in my head, yeah....

Ain't _nobody_ gonna mess with the freedom of the press when Swordbreaker's around....
