Re: I have got a strange feeling about the EFSF's budget on weapon development

So, we've discussed how much does an MS cost before in this forum. Reading through that old threat suddenly gave me a strange thought - that the EFSF suffers from a chronic case of overbudgeting when it comes to weapon development. How many prototypes and limited-production MS did the EFSF (plus th...

Re: The Official Gundam Twilight AXIS Mecha Thread Mk I

On the official Youtube release, at 2:26 on the video, you see what seems to be a reflection of a purple Jegan holding some manner of weird beam weapon that I'm totally unfamiliar with. Anyone have any clue as to what that thing is holding? According to this page from the Premium Bandai website, th...

Re: The obsoletion of MS-manned gun emplacements

The gun platforms were more to provide heavy battleship like beam cannons to early UC MS mainly due to there own internal reactors being unable to power them so a platform base was needed to house the Guns reactor and to move the gun. the Mega Rider was more of an evolution of the Mega Bazooka Launc...

Re: How can OZ mass-produce Virgos with Gundanium Alloy?

during that final battle the Epyon system was hooked to the MD control comupter converting them from robots acting on a scripted combat system to something like UC era Bits and the units introduced in Gundam X the Bit Mobile Suits.

Re: GN Drive Tau particle colors?

it's how the GN-T drives are calibrated the Red particles are drives optimized for Beam weapons and are harmful to humans the later drives fixed this and had orange particles. the particles on the Alvaaron/ Alvatore were gold because of cosmetics Alejandro Corner really liked gold.

Re: How can OZ mass-produce Virgos with Gundanium Alloy?

technically OZ-02MD Virgo was an combination of the two specialized OZ-13MSX units as an simplified production unit. Vayeate tested the beam cannon while Mercurius tested the Planet Defensors. the OS-13MSX being an upgraded version of the OX-00MS body frame also used for the OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon.

the GN-000 0 Gundam was more of a technology demonstrator for the GN drive tech being basically a bare bones unit with one saber and a beam rifle to test out basic equiptment to see if it was functional. the later GNY series was to test specialized units before the final models. the 0 gundam was bas...

Re: Does the destiny silhouette use Voiture Lumiere System?

it had the system installed as the Destiny was originally planned as the Impluse's version of the P202QX Integrated Weapons Striker Pack. it became a seprate unit because the Voiture Lumiere system depleted the battery faster causeing it to become an new suit.

Re: The date when the Zsaa, the Dreissen, the Capule, and the Galluss first started development?

It dos't help that the HyGogg was desgined in the production time line until after CCA was produced and it wasent there to be based on when the Axis units were being drawn up. so we have an unit that untill 0080 came out would have been based just on the Gogg with an added unit between the two addin...

The Capule didn't get it's old Zeon ms base model until 0080 came out and added one one to the late OYW era. With the MSM-03C Hygogg a revised version of the MSM-03 Gogg. AMX-101 Galluss-J barrows concepts from the MS-07 Gouf so Axis wasn't starting from scrach they took old MS models from Zeon and ...

AMX-107 Bawoo I remember reading where was built using stolen ZZ Gundam project data brought over by defecting AE techs to Axis.

the Capule and the Dreissen had the advantage of being just updated versions of older Zeon models the MSM-03C Hygogg and the MS-09R-2 Rick Dom II respectively. the AMX-101 Galluss-J takes some of it's design from the MS-07 Gouf most of Neo-zeon's early ms works were updated units from Zeon's older m...
