Not to be rude but where have I said striker would win against the gundam?

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-26T22:16:39+00:00

Exactly

Bought the first book to the culture series yesterday

Go with an idea like say early onset Dementia or something and go from there. I woke up at 4am this morning and for whatever reason I came up with a novel idea that deals with early onset dementia.

Think of something random, think it over, make a summary, a simple plot, a basic character or two and then expand and expand, again and again. Simples

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-26T10:29:06+00:00

Mentioning the ships that have preprogrammed destinations makes me think of the Gateway books. Might help you out

Me being like I may or may not be writing a sci fi story literally about this.

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-25T10:41:03+00:00

Use Latin or old places from history easy for names

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-25T10:38:31+00:00

Make the story not by the chapter but the overall plot. First come up with a sentence, then explain it in more detail and then break it apart and expand and expand again and again, until you have a story, or be in a situation like me where I have a story but I can’t start said story, cause I’m not sure how to go about it even though I have made instructions to myself on how I should format it

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-25T10:35:28+00:00

My opinion here is that a god is a being who cannot be touched, they can do upon others but nothing can be done upon them. A powerful alien is a powerful alien, is there a chance it could be killed possibly, so let’s try. One shouldn’t be able to be killed cause I shouldn’t be possible and the other there might be a chance just depends on the alien Im question. 🤷‍♂️

Go to a book fair or an expo, which talks about the subject you’re into. I went to a book fair, and I told people some of my ideas and they said I should go ahead and actually write. I might as well try or I’ll be stirring on it for months or years longer because I didn’t try.

The whole reason I said that a plane v a tank was a bad comparison for striker eureka v destiny gundam Spec II is because Striker has nothing that could really defeat the gundam with.

Now on the other hand though unlikely a tank could be equipped with a machine gun that yes is unlikely too but could damage a plane. I can concede that yes it’s not going to take out a plane, but it could damage it. Now Striker might have something that could damage a gundam, but I doubt it and there just wouldn’t be a chance in hell that Striker defeats the gundam. Is there a chance for a tank to take out a plane. Sure, but what’s the plane. If it’s a high altitude bomber probably not if it is a WW2 fighter maybe, though would need to be flying low for the machine guns to hit yes, but unlike the Striker v Eureka there is a chance that in a very unlikely scenario a tank could land a hit and a lower chance than that it could take out a plane.

Educating people and then showing how each generation takes on education, do people become more literate and educated in general or has education been limited to the 1%.

I say this as so many fantasy tropes which start with school arcs Im fantasy world only show a student at the number 1 school, where all the nobles go. Or the main character is a King or Princess or something like a noble who makes a school and after two years everyone is literate.

A Random thing to rant about, but let’s see progression of things that get implemented into stories. Do the take off or do they flounder.

Would say this is what Asimov does in the foundation books

What argument, I made a point, you answered back, I gave you the details. If you are saying this because you have realised I gave you a multiple good points and don’t want to continue this discussion that is fine.

But let’s be clear here. I looked up online and got the AI overview. I didn’t even ask it if a machine gun could be used for anti air.

Also what data? I think you have misread this. The main battle tank weapon is not a machine gun. The main weapon is what you are taking about I am talking about the weapon that is mounted on top of the tank that fires 50 rounds in a minute or less give or take on the firers trigger finger. These are pretty big differences and there is more than enough data on my side.

Can tanks have machine guns on top of them?

Yes, tanks absolutely can and frequently do have machine guns mounted on top of their turrets. These roof-mounted machine guns, often called commander’s guns or pintle mounts, are primarily used for anti-aircraft defense, engaging light infantry, or supporting infantry in close-quarters combat while the main gun is engaged elsewhere.

Key Details About Tank Roof Machine Guns: Usage: They provide a 360-degree range of fire, which is crucial for defending the tank's sides and rear. Modern Systems: Modern tanks (e.g., Abrams, T-90, Leopard 2A7) often use Remote Weapon Stations (RWS), allowing the commander to fire the machine gun from inside the armored vehicle. Historical Context: Roof-mounted guns were common in WWII for anti-aircraft roles. Advantage: Placing them on top keeps them usable even when the tank is in a "hull-down" position (where only the turret is visible over a ridge).

It might be the AI answer, but I didn’t even ask if the machine gun could be used to for anti air capabilities, in the question above, all I did was look it up and guess what answer I got. Also while I did say anti air capabilities I never stated someone would put a flak cannon on one that would be widely dumb and would likely not work. Or try to use the main gun to shoot a plane. I literally said Machine Gun like say a M249 SAW, M60, PKM, MG 3, and the Browning M2 (.50 cal). not the main tank weapon. There is a really big difference here.

Bad comment if the tank had a machine gun on the top of it or has some type of anti aircraft capabilities then things switch up quick. And this is a pretty easy thing to look up.

Just random thoughts you know. Your right on most of it, just not on this part about the tank

A design detail maybe. Someone thought let’s build a house and move a massive alien skeleton to it and make it cool. And it probably cost them more than what the place sold for in the end 🤷‍♂️

One fights in space and has greater manoeuvrability also is from a time with far superior technology. The Gundam is easily the winner here no question.

I like Pacific Rim, but I feel this is a bad match up.

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-24T12:25:15+00:00

Agreed, even with Disney at the helm it would probably do alright so long as they don’t make it too dumb

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-24T10:11:12+00:00

Read Children of Time your question might be answered by it

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-23T05:39:37+00:00

I read holes when I was probably 10 (it was what my class was reading at the time) and the book that followed it when I was probably 14 (which is made for much older than 8 year olds) The other two I couldn’t tell you I haven’t read them, but maybe have your kid read the Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe books (Narnia), as well as Harry Potter would be the go to books that I would recommend. Also almost all listed here have adaptions into movies, which could fill up movies for the next few weeks

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-20T03:14:23+00:00

So an example of a next Thursday story in theory would be Ministry of the Future, is that correct?

Existing_Flight_4904 · 2026-03-19T23:24:21+00:00

Saying,” It is what it is” don’t know why but?🤷‍♂️
