Speaking of Nuclear technology being banned ever since the end of UC era, this greatly affects the process of technological advancement on earth, thus showing the absence of thermonuclear technology to manufacture ultra fusion compact reactor as core generator for MS and this proves the absence of a beam shield and other old technologies from UC era as well.
Sorry, not following you. We've seen suits do far crazier things in G Reco than anything managed in UC (at least, not involving the Biosensor or other Newtype oddities) and the Elf line's power source is described in the same terms as
Turn A's so it's not like we've taken a step backwards technologically, in the grand scheme of things.
Also, Beam Shields are explicitly mentioned as still being a thing (Aida name-drops them in ep 6) and the initial sketches showed G-Self's red shield was going to be a Beam Shield... and they haven't entirely ruled out something like that popping up in the future even though the design has changed.
What I said from the first paragraph is actually stated by Tomino himself saying that ever since UC era ended, Nuclear energy were banned and affects the technological change of a whole new era. To think that most of the technological development of the UC era uses nuclear technology as its foundation. When we come to a new setting in G-Reco, in a whole new era utilizing new energies as an alternative such as the Photon Batteries. We get to see new stuff coming out from Photon Batteries. Firstly is the Photon Frame, best example of the photon frame is shown in the G-Self. The G-Self is capable of releasing excess photon energy. Which is possibly to trick in explaining why we see flash images, flash attacks, or even phase shift phenomenon.
One of this similar phenomenon can be seen in episode 3 is when Aida launched the G-Self, Bellri accidentally pressed a random button thus activating 'RAYHUNTON CODE' and photon frame-phase shift system activates. Guess what ability the G-Self gets this time?? the noob blue shield that G-Self's uses all the time suddenly gain an I-Field effect that could repel beam attacks from a beam rifle. LOL!!!! it happens only in Episode 3!!!! While the dents can be seen throughout other episodes.
To further know how and why G-Self is trolling using magic, we had to know more from the people who build this. The red shield comes from towasanga, everything in regards of the Hermes Foundation and the origins of G-Self still boils down to the survivors of UC era.
G-Arcane's manual,
1 'Ameria was unable to replicate the original Photon Frame armor color from the blueprints so it has that bootup mark on the forehead and mouth.' (This could be an explanation to why the G-Arcane seems inferior compared to the G-Self which was constructed from Towasanga)
2) 'Aida's unit is called Unit 1 and is being used in operational test. Since the Amerian was unable to replicate the original Photon Frame armor color from the blueprints.
- The absence of Gundarium Alloy. Gundarium alloy is much heavier than photon frame. Most MS of the RC era weight averagely 35-38 tons...
I based my comments according Tomino's and actual source. You can continue speculating yours there is no need for u to follow me either....
Your views on Elf line's power source is described in the same terms as Turn A's
- This has yet to be confirmed on whether the power source is eligeble to the Turn A's tho they had the same term.
- Elf series are equipped with Central Beam System. In the center of the MS there's a DEGENERACY REACTOR that allows beam convergence/scattering. It's possible to freely adjust the beam's output and when all beam cannons are fired in unison it's possible to create a Beam Net to defend against solid or beam enemy attacks. The external handheld rifle is very powerful because it allows over-concentration but not very stable, thus being abolished in the Elf Bullock.
- Turn A used a pair of "Discontinuous Hyperoscillation Gauge Collapsing Piles" (DHGCP-type Generators), which operate on a similar principle of containing artificial black holes, but are never called degeneracy reactors in-universe - Gundam Wiki.
- Mind you that the Turn A has 2 artificial black hole as its power source. So if the turn A's power source was defined as that, does that mean the same artificial black hole technology is also applied on the Elf line? No way?!!! Or the other way round where Degeneracy Reactor is defined differently??? Wow Artificial Black Hole man!!! Nice stuff u brought up
