Why do you think they gave Mobile 6 a holographic training platform? The procurement division probably remembered what happened the first time Nanoha, Fate and Hayate did combat training together (see the last A's manga), and then realized the three would be training together EVERY DAY from now on.

VB shot got through the AMF because there has an barrier layer which prevents the actual shot gets dispersed ... Besides since AMF only makes magic unforcused I'm under then impression that overkill spells like annihilation lighting will pierce AMF's. |

Of course, there was the suggestion that the second drone was caught 'by surprise', if that's the case then another way to counter drones is just to have high speed attacks, magic or not, and destroy it before it activates it's AMF... Then again, they call it "TYPE-1", so there's a possiblity that there are other types of drones with different types of AMF that functions differently... Off-topic: I get the feeling that recently a number of fans are losing their faith with this season, even though it's only the 3rd episode...

Seeing all this AMF discussion inclines me to repost this from the episode 3 discussion, about AMF and it's apparent contradictory effects:

Wikipedia's entry on Nanoha StrikerS states that Caro is not proficient in attack magics. Does anybody know where this is stated?

Well, ignoring the fact that it's only one episode, she didn't use any 'damaging' spells... ... Kinda like Yuuno.

as you know everyone thought eilo was going to die, while he pretty much was , but thankfully the people at headquaters(Chrono, probley saied i the only one who can save that little boy) heard of her (Nanoha)evil plan and ordered nanoha, fate and hayate power level down to AA for training so that they do not accendently destroy the planet since the TSAB paied so much money for that holographic projection platform where thay do all that training to begin with, so nanoha gets pissed and then decieds to take all 4 noobs at once, either none of then get hit for a full 5 minutes or anyone of them hits nanoha, and with the help of sweet carol, elio get to hits nanoha, which secretly pissed her more, but they passed this test, so all 3 girls get a super shower time together, but since elio is a boy but get a personal bath from fate again, so then nanoha creates new plan so for epsiode 5 she decides to kill 2 birds with one stone, since they need to learn how to fly, she just grab all 4 of them but them on a plane and then sholve them out the plane and then hopefually fall to there immentient death, so elio and now carol might die afterall, since nanoha wants fate all to herself, i just hope chrono can safe his sister's (fate)adopate kids again, but each epsiode get even more pumpeed up, were going on overdrive now!!!!!!!

In the strikers manga, when Nanoha does the info-dump on AMF for Rein II, she mentions that an AMF can be overpowered with a powerful enough magical attack,
but since AMF is apparently a rare thing to encounter, most mages would be initially at a loss to deal with the situation, and be defeated. It's not _impossible_ to use magic even inside the AMF, just _quite_ difficult to focus and control it. A recent translation of ep 3 reveals that the drones are in fact, quite low level in capability, in order to let the rookies get a feel for how to handle them. That was just the first session- they were training all day, and into the night. AMF's are a field, not a wall, so if you ascribe a kind of magical "inertia" and "momentum" to a combat spell shot, in the time the AMF disrupts the outer barrier, the inner strike gets through to the drone. The fact that the Variable (Fireball) Shot hesitated before striking through, can be attributed to a barrier placed outside of the AMF effect, as the drone AI recognizes the danger. My opinion, and interpretation, of course. Your Mileage May Vary. Oh, I don't know if this has gotten around- Hayate's ice attack has been translated as "Atem des Eises" (breath of ice) by a german group, not "Boden Eis" (ground frost/ice), and I would agree with the interpretation. Alle Angaben ohne Gewär. ^_^ |

In the manga the (translated) line is that it requires a lot of skill, not power, which fits with Tiana's subtle method and the statements about the difficulty of focusing magic.
And, well, I want it to be that way. I mean, if it can be beaten just by throwing a lot of power at it, how is it different from a strong barrier defense? Adds nothing if it's like that.

Just got this feeling a while ago---but all of a sudden I feel sorry for the bosses in StrikerS. Apart from the 4 new characters and a dragon, they also have to deal with Nanoha, Fate and Hayate + knights. And even if they managed to get out safely, they still have to deal with a whole battalion. And if they really are that powerful, there's still quite a number of Arc-en-Ciel mounted motherships waiting for them...
Comon---there has to be a limit in unfairness! |
