Re: GW: Wing Gundam BR 3 Shot Maximum

You can't tell and that's definitely a technological limitation of the time. Yes! You are right, the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. But does that not apply to the number of shots the BR can fire?

Re: GW: Wing Gundam BR 3 Shot Maximum

So what do we do if the show doesn't support the theory of 100% e-cap usage per shot? There is plenty of footage of the BR being shown using a narrower shot, but not the increased range that would come with such a shot.

Re: GW: Wing Gundam BR 3 Shot Maximum

I'm not talking about different ammunition. We know that the BR has 3 energy packs that are used as the ammunitions for the BR. We also know that 1 full powered shot, should use up 1 energy pack right? What I'm asking is, if you fire a half powered shot does that only use half of the energy stored i...

GW: Wing Gundam BR 3 Shot Maximum

There is a held belief that the Buster Rifle of the Wing Gundam has a 3 shot max output before requiring a reload. I don't really dispute this, but I'm wondering if it makes sense. Due to the rifle being able to adjust it's output, would I be right in saying that the BR can also fire 6 half power sh...

Genetic Modification in After Colony Verse

I was reading on the Gundam Wiki that Heero Yuy went through genetic modification at the hands of Doctor J. Does anyone know where this came from? Also does anyone know if there are any other instances of modification of that kind in the A.C. universe?

Re: Wing: G-Unit's accelerate rifle

I see. Good to finally know, though the gun comes across as a tad vanilla compared to other weapons in the franchise IMO. I'm not sure I'd call it "vanilla"... the norm in Gundam is various types of exotic particle beam weaponry which use whatever magic particles exist in that version of ...

I guess there are some MA that are never called out as MA like Devil Gundam. It might have started out as a MS/MF, but ends up being a MA.

Gundam Wing: No Mobile Amours?

I had a random thought, is Gundam Wing's After Colony universe the only one without any mobile armours in it? I did a quick look around the other timelines, but every one seems to have a least one MA.

Re: Was the Tarus mobile suit a suitable replacement...?

I get that it's a higher performance machine, however the downside to this is that it has a major drop in versatility. The Taurus's standard equipment is simply a beam rifle. It can optionally carry a beam cannon or beam sabre but this was far from the norm. I guess what I'm trying to say is that t...

Re: Was the Tarus mobile suit a suitable replacement...?

I was thinking about Gundam Wing OZ MS genealogy and began comparing the Taurus to the space Leo and the Aries. You drop so much versatility when moving to the new platform that I'm not sure it makes sense. I get the MD System is able to make 100% use of the machines capability but still. Why? The ...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Thread Mk V

While I have not been jumping out of my seat with Gundam AGE so far, this second time skip looks to be what will set AGE apart from the other shows. That being said, sorry if everyone has already noticed this. But is it me or are these time skips being done so that they could simply make a homage to...

Re: Zero's Twin Buster Rifle's capabilities?

I was always under the impression that the individual buster rifles are just as powerful as the buster rifle on the Wing Gundam. That being said, i have always theorised that when combined neither rifle can fire a full powered shot, due to the close proximity to each other. How ever i believe this a...

Re: Why no artillery in Gundam?

What are we considering artillery here, mobile armour/suits with any long range weapons or mobile suit/armour who are part of the dedicated support role like the guntank. I think that you can classify weapons in those two catergories and to that end i see the leo and serpent in the former catergory ...

Re: Deathscythe and its stealth capabilities

While this explanation is not used in the GW show i think is applies anyway as these two weapons are very similar in concept. There is character the show Naruto who uses a similar scythe weapon only his has three blades at different retracting lenghts. http://i533.photobucket.com/albums/ee332/ecclae...

Well as the ZERO system is in the business of relaying infromation, its not much of a strech to assume that it can relay ms positions to a pilot.

I think the real question is why did the beam just wash over the Wing Gundam instead of putting it on a one way trip out of the solar system.
