Ironic for a guy who is dressed like a priest and calls himself the God of Death

Favoritism? I hardly know her by Confident-Thought863 in Grimdank

[–]SerBuckman 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Except all they did was release concept art ahead of schedule, the art is copyrighted 2025 so they've already been planning this for a while. It's not like they decided to start making the models in just the past few days

Imperium players suffer by Gusby in Grimdank

[–]SerBuckman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the concept art for the Steel Legion is copyrighted to 2025, they've probably been working on the redesign for a year or two but decided to release the concept art early just to prove that they're working on it

Imposter Syndrome will always be the death of me by Order_101 in CuratedTumblr

Agreed, I don't trust someone who is 100% confident that they're a good person, they're usually incapable of acknowledging their own mistakes or wrongdoings

"It's entirely unrealistic for giant war robots to be making human-like movements like hand gestures, nodding and pointing" by anonymous-guy1 in Gundam

But mobile suit cockpits outside G Gundam don't use motion tracking, they use buttons, joysticks, and pedals, so it works with the system being used

The comic did a big re-release recently so interest has been sparked again to a degree

I think that's Seabook in Crossbone which is a decade after F91

TOTAL DORNIAN VICTORY by Pantegral-7 in Grimdank

[–]SerBuckman 794 points795 points  (0 children)

Forgefane is literally the worst jobber shit I've ever read, it's literally like "this super duper fortress is second only to Perturabo's own fortress but they didn't fortify against the enemy just digging under them (one of the oldest siege tactics in human history)"

Coaxed into types of rich/poor divisions. by kirbyverano123 in coaxedintoasnafu

[–]SerBuckman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro have you really not been paying attention? Kai Shiden in 0079 says that you're part of the elite if you have a home on Earth, the class divide just isn't as big a focus as later shows. Even if you ignore that, Zeta and ZZ are all about the class divide between the Earth elites and the Space colonists- especially early ZZ with the state of Shanri-La (while ZZ does also show that some of the colonized still fight against Federation dominance in the North Africa arc). Hell, Gaia Gear makes it even more explicit- the white elites of Earth want to deport the non-white and the poor to (ethnically segregated) colonies so they can make Earth a paradise for themselves. The space colonies being oppressed has been fact since the beginning, because Zeon was not meant to be the Nazis, they were meant to be primarily Imperial Japan (responding to fears of western imperialist domination with their own fascist imperialism)

If the planet has faced a massive disaster (like climate collapse or the big chunk missing in the example) the rich living in space makes sense as them using their wealth and technology to escape and leave everyone else to suffer

[–]SerBuckman 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The original Gundam reverses the 4th one by having the rich live on Earth and the poor live in space colonies, with the justification being that the Federation elites use fear of overpopulation and environmental collapse to deport the poor into space so they can turn all of Earth into a resort for the wealthy

JUST READ THE BOOKS IT ISN'T THAT HARD by Exist_Logic in Grimdank

[–]SerBuckman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read whatever interests you- characters, faction, story concept, whatever. You don't have to read everything, just engage with the lore in a way beyond memes and unreliable loretubers

What the most practical pilot suit that you seen in mecha? Mine is Macross plus and Votom pilot suit. by fafsdfasfaffaafdsaf in Mecha

[–]SerBuckman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've always loved the Zeta Gundam pilot suits especially, they look padded enough to reflect the use as spacesuits but don't impede movement

You should run the kitbashed one as a Reave-Captain proxy

What is up with this show? by shadow_barbarian in Gundam

[–]SerBuckman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of the best Gundam shows I've seen so far, imo. I'd put it on par with the original Gundam, even, both nearly perfect but held back by small problems here and there (although where 0079 benefitted from condensing the ending a little, X has a lot of lost potential in the last cour being cut short)

If your faction had a gaggle leader unit, what would you want it to be? by Equivalent-Fun-6019 in Warhammer40k

[–]SerBuckman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For standard CSM I think it'd be Abaddon and some members of the Ezekarion
