Right! 

As was pointed out by someone, the Series it was fused with was Rogue 
Trooper, a series onto its second incarnation. Basically, you've got a 
world which has been the meeting point for two armies. It's a global, 
declared, unlimited conflict- nukes, chem, bioweapons, all kinds of 
weaponry, experimental and downright deadly. 
    Then one side came up with Gengineered soldiers. In the first 
incarnation, the troops were dropped into a trap, set up by a traitor 
general. In the second, they were sent into a no-win situation to test 
whateher the design was right. They took the hill, defended against 
first men, then armour, then experimental GI's (Genetic Infantry) and 
only one survived.
    The biochips come about from different sources in the different 
incarnations... but the idea is that it stores the memories, experience 
and personality of a GI, so they can be downloaded either into a new 
body, OR fixed into a piece of equipment. In this case, the other GI's 
were killed, and Gourry is now Lina's gun. This is simply because in the 
'new' Rogue, his rifle biochip was a little screwy. The biochipping went 
wrong. Now he wants to get home to mummy, has a Winnie-the-pooh 
fixation, and sulks at times. He's also an expert shot. Fixed into the 
gun, he can autofire, change ammo at will, and initiate self-cleaning. 
Gourry is a bit dense, but fits the bill. 

Well, I think I'll get on with it!
