Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

My apologies for the confusion. It's just that even though there possibly is no chance of a live action Robotech movie then I would be happy to see it and supposedly I heard that they won't be using the OG names for the characters so instead they would change each one but I don't mind. All in all, ...

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

Well, that was odd... anyway...

The Macross II Kickstarter's in its final few days and only a few thousand dollars from being Animeigo's biggest ever crowdfunding project.

Re: Post Disaster Terraforming (IBO)

Even if the Earths moon is destroyed, maybe they could still colonize the moons of the other planets: it would give access to the resources without as much difficulty in terraforming.. In the IBO anime(I haven't read any of the manga) at least we see colonies in space and terraforming, but it's not...

Re: Teiwaz groups... More information?

I made an observation so far... Is it possible the STH-05 Hyakuren units seen with the JPTTrust Are the 4S Phalanx team mentioned? No. "4S Phalanx" is not a mobile suit unit. As noted previously, the only time "4S Phalanx" is referenced in all of Iron-Blooded Orphans thus far is...

Re: Layzner and Dragonar

So according to the page for Layzner variations, some of the designs that were left unused following Layzner being cut short ended up in Dragonar. Is there any information on which unused designs were repurposed? That remark comes from a 2002 issue of Great Mechanics . I've found some related remar...

Re: The Phasing out of the Pegasus Class?

So is it every explained why or when exactly the Pegasus Class ( and Trojan Horse Ships like the Argama and Nahel Argama in general) are phased out? For example the Titan's have no shortage of resources, yet aside from the Dogosse Giar they all have much smaller ships that almost seem like cruisers...

Re: How do the explosive bolts on the Hyaku Shiki Kai Full Armor work?

Hey, thanks for the answer. And didn't the Alex use explosive bolts to discard its CHOBAM armor? It's not explicitly stated, but the way the armor separates after the Kampfer's chain mine goes off definitely has the look of jettisoning via pyrotechnic fasteners. The parts blow outwards instead of j...

Re: How do the explosive bolts on the Hyaku Shiki Kai Full Armor work?

It's MSV... it doesn't have to make sense or be properly explained. :P The explanation given is that it's basically an ineffectual shotgun-type weapon that fires explosive buckshot that doesn't have enough stopping power to actually hurt an enemy MS other than with a lucky hit on joints or cameras. ...

When we're on the topic of compatibility in OYW, just how different are the RX-78 to the Jaburo- and Luna II-made GM?

Based on the character list from the Japanese game website, it's just the usual suspects from the Turbines (Naze and Amida) and some of the less prominent members of Tekkadan (Norba and Yamagi).

The Moon was also heavily damaged during the Calamity war as it missing some chunks from the little we see and hear about it from IBO season 1.

Awesome, there is a book on background material!
