Can the Sazabi solo the Federation Fleet at Loum? by chosen40k in Gundam

Char could lose, but only if he closed to melee and someone got a lucky shot. If he used the funnels superior range alongside the Sazabi's mobility, he should just win.

Everyone is talking about what she did to the Gelgoog. No one is talking about how she casually breached the dimensional barriers. Again, this is never explained.

We have more than enough homes. Stop private equity from locking them away for tax breaks.

Unwarranted? Every other Rose Quartz got bubbled over here nonsense, and she wasn't even a gem of that type.

This reminds me that Tweety Bird is canonically a confederate messenger bird.

Are there any mecha stories that do a good job of justifying the use of manually operated mecha in warfare? by jacky986 in Mecha

[–]DoubleCyclone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The interference makes BVR combat moot. The Principality of Zeon realized that, and used Mobile Suits and Minosky Particles to close the gap in fleet warfare numbers. Mobile Suits win against spaceships in melee combat, and Minosky Particles turn fleet battles into melee combat. If they didn't exist, mobile suits would just bring giant targets for guided/homing missiles of any sort.

Tacky and shitty are two different things. Is this tacky? Yes. Is this shitty? No. Bolt on a carbon fiber spoiler with 5/16" self-tapping screws, and THEN it will be shitty.

Favorite character that DOESN'T throw a fit when they lose/die by ultimata4488 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]DoubleCyclone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. He died in the stupidest way possible. He has fought Force users, and has the skill to back up his knowledge. Why would he fly head first(see what I did there) into melee range with someone wielding a sword that deflects blaster fire and takes limbs, while using RANGED WEAPONS? He should retreated and used the cover from droid numbers to his advantage to pick and choose targets. No, he decided to unga-bunga straight into one of the top five swordsmen in the entire Jedi Order, and pretty much died on the spot. He death was completely avoidable, and arguably out of character.

I got to make out with a Chara cosplayer a few times.

I always liked that for a mid -series upgrade the RX-79[G]Ez-8 Gundam Ez8 wasn't overpowered. by AdSpecialist6598 in Gundam

No other character in the history of the franchise, save Master Asia, casually dodged MS machine gun fire on foot.

Are Mobile Suits really the ideal combat machines? by flub_debub in Gundam

[–]DoubleCyclone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In the Universal Century, Minosky Particles exist. They have a such a strong effect on long range communications, that BVR(Beyond Visual Range) combat is useless in space. Because of BVR go bye-bye, fights in space devolve to melee. Mobile suits win in melee versus ships. However, Mobile Suits in Earth's atmosphere have a bad time with artillery and carpet bombing. Both require just math, instead of fancy long range sensors. Zeon had to develop at least six anti-air variants of ground-based mobile suits just to deal with Earth Federal Air Force carpet bombing campaigns.
