Hi Zach.  Thanks for the explanation.  I'm not sure I follow one
point:

Does the disarm animation have to be downloaded from the server to
the client?  If so, does each observer of this player then, in turn,
also have to download the disarm animation from the server?  Is it
prohibitive, because of the huge number of combinations, to include
the animation on the client installation?
