Will give Grodek some credit since he's taking care of a concern I've had since last episode about his plan. At least he's trying to beef up his forces before going into this. Although the problem remains about the lack of mobile suits to use against the UE. Guess Woolf is taking care of this problem himself though how the heck he can get a quality suit in 5 days before they ship out is beyond me. The people he went to might be talented, but there is a limit here.
Agree that Flit better not surrender there. Shouldn't be that tough to just walk right over these guys and get out of that mess.

In the case of this episode the professor took out the Gundam who as far as everyone is concerned belongs to him and Flint practically. Additionally, they all seem to be understaffed (looking at how nobody was on shift) and all this nonsense happened while on their break. There's very little incompetence involved when you consider the circumstances.

And by the way, just because they may have an excuse for being incompetent, arguably, it doesn't mean they're not incompetent. |

Your logic is flawed anyway. You're basically saying that if say you're a pilot of a Boeing 747 you are a master at piloting a fighter jet, just because the other one was bigger. In this case it's even more extreme since she's more on the maintenance side rather then actually piloting. Maybe if Nora was some kind of military colony I would buy into the whole security argument but they basically went from a civilian cruiser to a frigate (or whatever that little ship is). Their military was pathetic at best and from the looks of it, part of it (namely the ship in question), didn't even answer directly to colony command (ie. her post). If we're talking about breaking protocols shouldn't we be talking more about how the captain just left the ship with out leaving anyone in charge.

It's called delegation of work and communication. No one person has to do every single job. But in the end, the captain and the other officials are responsible for the whole ship. At the very least, moving the Gundam outside the Diva should have been communicated to the bridge. Quote:

You have evidence to support the idea that they were actually trained to do this? It's miracoulas their posts on Nora are even compatible to those required to running a battlecruiser. Just because they're in the particular position doesn't just inject all the know-how (or expectations we might have of them) into their heads. It's like if I make you the CEO of some big company (by accident), are you suddenly expected to know every nuance of the position? Does the Gundam even belong to them? If the chief engeneer/researcher/whatever wants to take it out I don't see what gives them any right to actually stop him; particularly with the captain not even on board. Heck even the ship they're on doesn't belong to them. Do they even belong to the military? The world of AGE isn't exactly at war either, not with other humans anyway; as far as they're concerned. There was certainly no specific official-military initiative to drag the damn thing onto the ship back on Nora (even though it was for the purpose of combating the UE in the end).

And again, if they were competent, they don't need to be able to handle everything. But they should know important things like the whereabouts of the Gundam. Quote:

Since when is the profesor part of the team? He only talks to Flint.

Speaking of which are they even in contact with the military? You'd think they would have heard about Grodek not being captain if that was the case. Quote:
Oh yes it does! If they're not suppose to be there, everything is a lot more lax and priorities are elsewhere like when are they going to get off the ship. Their understanding of what goes where is also a lot more blurry. They're not even the kind of people to just strip search everyone leaving the ship or have them require permission. If this was a serious crew Flint and others couldn't just board and unboard the ship as they please, and take the keys for the weapon with them on their walks no less.

Are you seriously saying that knowing the whereabouts of the Gundam is as important as knowing which bolts are changed for the bridge crew? Quote:

Kind of makes you think what the hell Grodek's planing by getting another 2 ships (if I remember that scene correctly). I wouldn't be surprised if blonde Popey is going to join the crew along with his daughter and a bunch of other rufians. That or they could just recruit some Nora refugees; there should be plenty willing. Has any gundam series to date focused on a miniature space fleed commanded by the protagonists? as opposed to the one-ship-army theme of recent gundam series. More like just Emily, Dique is too stupid to know what's going on. I wouldn't put it past him to just spill the beans at some point.

I'm assuming this happened in Destiny since I don't remember it in SEED.

You sure the door was closed to begin with?

Yeah never really saw that as an actual fleet, but I guess it is sort-of. Speaking of ship names, do we have one for this one?

in Destiny, it was just Orb + remnants of Clyne faction + Yzak's forces vs Plant (Zaft) |
