Arc Hammer posted:Or the Silver Bullet if you want to be stylish. I really like the magnum. It's dumb, but it also gives Banagher so much more character that he's addicted to the thing. He gets into a Mobile Suit, he immediately tells the mechanics to find a way to let him use the biggest gun they have. "Well, you could, if you had a whole rack of spare arms..." "Yes. That sounds perfect. Make it happen."

Gundam used to be a realistic series with battleship sized motorcycles and space pirate ships with beam sails. Once again unicorns writers throw it all away for their unrealistic nonsense

Was Build Divers Battleogue removed from youtube? I can't seem to find it. I guess it got removed around when they put up Gundam Breaker Battleogue to keep the results clean?

Banagher in Narrative is likely at the full end-of-Destiny-Kira-Yamato stage where he doesn't like killing people but if you interfere with his dearest princess's plans for peace then you're going to have to die.

Kanos posted:Banagher in Narrative is likely at the full end-of-Destiny-Kira-Yamato stage where he doesn't like killing people but if you interfere with his dearest princess's plans for peace then you're going to have to die. Yeah, Banagher at the end of Narrative is explicitly at the "I don't want to kill but I have accepted that I need to fight to protect people" stage. The Silver Bullet Suppressor though is just so incredibly remarkably stupid. There are a dozen solutions in the UC alone that could work and provide a less insanely dumb image. The aforementioned reinforced arm, a separate firing platform, some variation of Full Armor designed to compensate for the recoil, gently caress just stick it in a lovely mobile armor whose sole purpose is to make the unit not die. Anything that isn't "We need to literally create a new arm for every time this machine fires and also that arm has to attach mid-battle to the existing frame." Christ they jury rigged the Unicorn Full Armor from poo poo they had lying around and that was better designed.

Frankly they'd probably get just as good results if they had modified it to be able to use the Doven Wolf beam launcher and use that instead of the Beam Magnum

ManSedan posted:INCOMs are cool as hell but I never understood the little hinges on the wires. Most likely the MS would be zipping all over the place, wouldn’t that be yanking the wires all about? I haven’t seen Narrative but I remember in Unicorn the Silver Bullet uses them while stationary. Presumably the MS isn't zipping all over the place but stationary (and hiding to control the INCOMs well) or coasting. It's just a relic of them conceptually emulating bit/funnels conducting all-range attacks. In theory the hinges would let you more gracefully use an INCOM around an obstacle because the wire is unobstructed and is not tangling up with anything. In practice combat is often too fast to use INCOMs much more than an additional set of beam guns.

A robot with a gun so strong it blows its own arm off so it has to have replacement arms is sick as hell no matter how dumb it is The only likable character trait Banagher has is his fascination with the sexy monster that is the beam magnum

“Uh uh. I know what you’re thinking. “Did he use six arms or only five?” Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a Beam Magnum, the most powerful beamgun in the Earth Sphere and would blow your head clean off, you’ve gotta ask yourself one question: “Do I feel lucky?” Well, do ya, punk?”
