this is your only answer... ?
bha, sorry but i can't change my mind about this.
thinking lara is doing this s*** only for integred the swiss army is a shame! and there are no regard about black and white life.
but if u can't answer some question just don't waste your time by posting some sarcastic answer and do your job !
and yes i agree with the world is not all white or all dark, but i never think that lara croft was this kind of woman, she prostitute herself just for have what she need !!! easy way...

"Always wondered how Orpheus could charm his way past the three-headed hound Cerberus. Crimen bestialitatis ."
well , i understand much better, on the french site they translate this by :" en charmant ", and if the leader of the swiss army doesn't look like a geant hound, i thing she doesn't charm him by singing him a little song or just by tricking him.

I am pretty convinced she did exactly that. She probably gave them some familiar tunes from the "Full Metal Jacket" soundtrack.

oh dear, GoranAgar, will you stop wasting time, please? i don't want to tell you also.
good answer Nerevar

"she developed her interest in firearms by charming her way onto the Swiss Armed Forces training range" - the way i read that, it seems simple and certainly innocent. my mind doesn't seem to connect "charm" to "sex", though. i must be weird.

don't you think it's a lot simpler than Lara trading sex for a spot on the range? don't you think it's a lot more likely that she simply threw out a compliment or two and smiled? that's still charm, and it's got nothing to do with sex.

with all due respect, another one, pretty much every reply to your post has had some element of sarcasm in it. don't just tear shreds off GoranAgar. besides, you've received a couple of answers to your query, anyway - GoranAgar isn't the only entity to have replied.

merry christmas, another one.

YES You misunderstood it. Clearly this is a language barrier problem. Read the definition of the word charm again. If you still have problems with it, see if there is a good English/(your language) dictionary at your local library. Look the word up in English, and find out what it means in your language. Then find the words in your language, and see what the English equivalents are. There are usually examples of usage provided. This way you can get a very good idea of the real meaning behind the words.

(...) Just like she charmed her way onto Verner's expedition, with charm, intelligence and a rich father.

The whole thing is academic as she's not real.
These events never really took place.

Daves Rather, though I'll give you the meaning of from what I've read on the site, to anser you prayers...

What the Site ment that she was extremly talented in fires and impressed the Swiss Army of her use of them, she did not "prostitute" her way in it, as what ANTI TR fantatics "want" you rub on your face... She was just well a blowing up targets, re read the part...

To that question as Lara would say NO I think Lara can just be very sweet by the way she approaches people eg: talking to the Swiss and all. Lara is not that kind of girl I think she would be very modest and a little shy in that field of things.
