Al i know is the UX-01 looks awesome. I wouldn't like to be ambushed by that baby.
Anyone else is getting a feeling they'll use the meteor polarization system/ring defense in that battle?The Yamato just having something like that as it did in the original does fall flat, especially since they do have shields. But in a situation like this, against a nearly invisible enemy and with the kind of damage those torpedos seem capable of, judgind from the massive hole on the side of the ship, not to mention that it seems even if they're destroyed, the shrapnel seems to embed on the hull and explode just the same (and kill many crew members), they might have to come up with some means of defense, other than the WM Shield (wich either don't work against the torpedoes or are rapidly depleted), and given the battle is being fought in an asteroid field, it makes some sense. The ring defense appearing out of necessity would fit nicely.
