Mack Knife manual info

-Model number: CAMS-05. H:16.0m W:32.6t. Armaments: Beam Vulcan, Photon Bomb, Plasma Claw and Grenade Launcher
-CA's MS built for space combat. Like its predecessor, Elf Bullock, it lacks conventional weapons like Beam Rifles opting for built in weaponry. While a small machine it possess high output built in weapons, its flight form allows it to circumvent enemy barrages to engage in close combat due to lowering the chance of being hit because of its reduced surface area. Being a high mobility unit it requires talented pilots.
-Plasma Claw: melee weapons built in both hands. It generates a high temperature thermal plasma from the nails that destroys not only the exterior but also the internal mechanics and computers of the target.
-Photon Bomb: Photon Eye is the name of the special optical observation device that allows long range missile attacks even under Minovsky Particles scattering.
-In order to carry preemptive attacks under Minovsky Particles scattering the Mack Knife is equipped with Photon Bombs in its lower body. Equipped with a Photon Battery, Photon Eye special optical observation device and an AI for shape recognition making possible a self propelled tracking attack that does not rely on radar.
-Grenade Launcher: 4 tube short range weapon built in the legs. Since hit rate is not that great its main purpose is for restraint.
-Sensor Eye built in for the Ace machine, an easier to manage one also exists for the MP machine. Ace machine has different coloring for distinction. Long distance cruising is possible by equipping the Booster.
-Beam Vulcan: wrists and legs built in rapid fire type Beam Gun. Point blank range barrages allows it to cause accumulated damage.


Full Moon Ship info: Crescent's sister ship. Although not a combat vessel, its Laser Cannons can destroy MS.

Ep 23 info:

-Perfect Pack is a beast:
a)Reflector Mode: turns the whole unit grey and creates 4 illusion large binders arranging them like the Pack, they apparently absorb the Beam Rifle shots.

b)High Torque mode: allows powered punches and kicks, only the members turn green

http://i.imgur.com/gkz4tUD.jpg
c)Assault Mode: the large binders become large Beam Cannons, those smaller 4 tubes on the back also flip forward(smaller beam guns?). Whole unit turns red.

d)Omnidirectional Laser: most likely a weapon based on the Atmospheric Pack's unused Laser Pod mouted on its the wings. The scene doesn't show more details.
http://i.imgur.com/57hqih6.jpg
e)New shield: has the same defense energy hexagons from the Towasanga shield. Is it a Beam Shield or a Photon Shield? Anyway it seems Bellri lost it for good since it's mentioned here and in the next ep he doesn't appear to carry it...

-Gaitrash: has 3 top of the head Beam Vulcans. Its Beam Curtain can expand to defend allied MS or be used to attack. Such a cool machine, we're gonna miss you...
http://i.imgur.com/75WXdph.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/a4NkQy1.jpg
-Hecate's backpack option finally show: they are called Coffin Bits, small drones that appear to emit lasers to disrupt enemy beam attacks just like Arcane's Sensor Burner. They seem to have weapons on its limbs. Pretty cool!
http://i.imgur.com/nIRW1mF.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/woa0YuL.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/YmVm2DX.jpg
-Klim's Space Jahanaam: used a missile launcher attached to the shoulder. Appears to be 4 tube but only fires 2 long missiles. http://i.imgur.com/MPDS2O8.jpg
-Bruzin: seen in combat but doesn't seem special.
-Langebein: its Mega Bazooka Launcher doesn't seem very powerful. Appears to use Photon eye tech.

Next week Arcane gets an upgrade and we're already seen the power of the Yggdrasil, a fleet destroying MA.

G-Lucifer manual info on Thursday too.

Info from BD booklet 3:

-Jahanaam(ground) armament listed as Beam Rifle, Shield and Plasma Axe. There are units with custom colors
-Hecate's weapon is called Large Gatling Gun and Plasma Scythe.
-Doubey is called a flying carrier. Has 2x 2 barrel vulcan cannons
-Recksnow's added large leg units allow better ground mobility by hovering and even short jumps, armor has been enhanced. Equipped with a Large Beam Rifle/high sensitivity Sensor Camera on the backpack and a Large Shield.

Akiman's twitter:
-Perfect Pack's High Torque Mode uses an I-Field Assist Muscle that's located in the center portion of the Pack.
-Perfect Pack uses a rudimentary I Field Beam Drive system, in the future Turn A will use the complete one

Yasuda:
-G-Self's head rapid firing Rail Gun can also charge.
-There were 2 additional binders for the Atmospheric Pack that also double as weapon mounts(pics below). Tomino didn't use them because he thought they got in the way but considered using them for the final battle.
-Trinity's arms and legs are apparently Incoms but are called Wired Funnels or something.

Re: The Official Gundam Reconguista Mecha Thread Mk I

Website updated with Bruzin: State of the art CA's space battle ship.

-Hecate's beam saber is stored inside the rear skirt. Actually Ippei released to kinds of Hecate lineart: standard one as per anime and another with a larger rear skirt and additional monoeye on the head(This one has the block bits and the beam saber, referred as space equipment). Don't know how they will handle these differences for the anime/gunpla
http://i.imgur.com/zooQnT6.jpg
-Ippei did the Langebein, he also appears to have done every SFS so far.
-Yasuda said there's a 2nd version of the perfect pack that won't appear in the anime. Perfect Pack is the 8th color, white.
-G-Self's armor is made of stacked monitors, that's why it changes colors so easily with the Packs
-High Torque is the best Pack for repetitive horizontal jumps
-When the Self runs out of power it turns transparent.
-Reflector was to be darker due to light absorption
-Those hexagon like special effects from Self's Towasanga and VG shield are called Beam Planes. The VG shield is labeled as コピペシールド(copy and paste shield), nice.

Re: The Official Gundam Reconguista Mecha Thread Mk I

G-Lucifer manual info:
-Model Number: VGMM-Gf10. H: 17.5m, W: 52.3t(including Skirt Funnels). Armament: Beam Saber, Skirt Funnel.
-G-IT Lab latest MS. Since the machine is still in test phase it is equipped with a 3 seater cockpit for operating and check. Although in test phase the machine has been completed. Main thrusters are also its characteristic 3 Skirt Funnels holding 6 Beam Cannons a Mega Cannon each as its forte. It's the embodiment of G-IT Lab's design concept of a MS making practical use of special weapons in the role of the mother machine. Its flowing like silhouette makes it a very beautiful machine.
-G-Lucifer is endowed with a sophisticated design, guaranteed high output and durability Main Thrusters, Photon Armor and a high quality radar. G-IT Lab's state of the art MS, worthy of the Morning Star name(Venus/Lucifer) as a high performance machine. However, if it loses the Skirt Funnels its firepower becomes non existent. Standard Beam Rifle can be equipped in this case.
-3 Large Thrusters which are also Funnels are equipped in the skirt, they hide tremendous space mobility.
-Skirt Funnel: remote guided weapon equipped with 6 Beam Cannons and a Mega Cannon. Doubles as the Main Thruster.
-Beam Saber: 2 are equipped on the left waist.
-Noredo is the navigator.

Ippei: The ankles deform downward for take off, the tip toe becomes the Minovsky Flight generator allowing it to dance as if it's wearing toe shoes like a ballerina.

Next manuals only in April

Re: The Official Gundam Reconguista Mecha Thread Mk I

Ep 24:
-Copy-Paste Shield, appears to have some sort of spatial ability
-Arcane's upgrade: Full Dress. New back addon with Laser Cannons that double as a barrier, new pink crown on the head and the Rifle is now colored orange(looks the same to me).
-Ygadrassil has a Reflective Barrier and the Tender Beam has many attack options.
-Mazraster has a custom Beam Rifle
-Kabakali has a solid chakram that when launched is covered in energy
-Perfect Pack appears to have a new ability shown in the PV, some particle stream
-G-Rach appears to have some weird beam whips for melee.

So lasers became an anti beam measure in late UC.

Lucifer already lost all its funnels...

Website updated with Full Dress, Ippei said the new pink crown is a Photon Balancer from VG thus enhancing its performance. No MA mode for it.

I really think the Pink colour kills it. if it was red it'd match the red joints a lot better.

So they are going GN tech in terms of hiding functions in ornamental components.

In sci-fi there is always the explanation of stealth, so that is why missile pods are hidden or rifles don't look like guns.

Idk about GN tech. G-Arcane's new weapon reminds me more of the RX-93 Gundams funnels.

There's lineart for MP Montero(official name), Kerbes Zangasto and Ringo's Moran in the new GM.

I wonder if they will give us lineart for the MP Mack Knife/Elf Bullock and Barara's Mack.
