What is "manty"

Usage examples of "manty".

There ought to at least be a flock of Manty LACs coming out to meet us by now!

Combined with what Lester did to Zanzibar, the Manties have to be feeling as if they strayed in front of an out-of-control freight shuttle at the bottom of a gravity well.

Which meant Technodyne would be able to get a direct look at the latest and best Manty war-fighting hardware.

Thunderbolt for the Manties to ship a couple of freighter loads of their multi-drive missile pods out here.

Manty pods are damnably hard sensor targets, but it looks like they were only rolling four pods at a time.

The same thing happened at Treadway and Solway, except that the Manties ran sooner, inflicted lower losses on us, and took lower losses of their own.

Of course, the real reason for the pods had been to provide background clutter to hide the Tarantula platforms, because Shannon hadn't been able to get the new FTL coms into something small enough to count on evading the notice of Manty sensor arrays.

Our job, I told them, was to break the siege: talk Captain Manty into letting Sotan law determine who would rule, and letting Bonde and Uuka stand trial.

He'd already decided on his liaison with Bonde: a man who looked enough like Manty to be his younger brother.

I imagine the Peeps will try a few counterattacks, but I also expect the Manties to chew them up when they do.

One of the mission's standing orders was that no one was to get a good look at the Crippler in action—or, at least, not to get that look and survive to tell the story—until Charles decided they were ready to take on all comers, Manty warships included.

Their job was to serve as obvious bird dogs for the heavy Manty battle squadrons behind them.

Defeating her, hopefully decisively, at the same time Thunderbolt is crunching up the Manties' frontier systems, will be a body blow to the Manty public's confidence and willingness to fight.

If she could figure out, in her copious free time, how to rebuild the Navy's morale, offset the technological inferiority of its weapon systems, magically replace the dozens of battle squadrons it had lost since the war began, and find a way to divert Manty attention from taking the rest of the Republic away from the Committee of Public Safety, that was simply an added benefit.
