i shall dubbed thee failed Balistia Cannon as thee "banana gun"

again, is there actually already an explaination on how the heck the giant letter 'A' appeared behind the Age-3 as it finishes combining & striking a pose?

... artistic license?

I can see the Fortress mode being an upgrade to battle against the phantom 3. It would make sense considering the Fortress mode's design. It did say somewhere that it had some ground breaking hovering thrusters(?) and seemed to be able to pivot while beam spamming demolishing anything in its path. I'm sure even the Ghiraga would have problems trying to get close enough to strike.

Don't tell me. We will have the return of the pirouetting gundam while shooting its BFG like Wing Zero from Gundam Wing.

It was shown being able to "surf" through the desert sand, Dom-style, in the OP.

Anyway, any idea where exactly the Clanche's beam sabers are stored? The Wiki says they're stored on its wrists, but those honestly look too small to contain anything. Any screenshots of the Clanche drawing its beam sabers, perhaps?

It's actually BUILT into the forearms. Probably can dual deploy too. We'll, it is a wiki.

Interesting. Seems it shares this feature with the AGE-3. Thanks for the picture! Makes more sense now.

Yeah, the Clanche is looking more of a fusion design from Age-2, Age-3 and even the perhaps the Genoace (ass-thrusters) compared to the straight simplified Age-1 design for the Adele. Could the EFF finally abandoned maintaining the Shaldoll frame?

I'm glad it's a fresh new design, rather than a copy/paste of the AGE-2. Its flight form is probably one of the best-looking transformable MS in Gundam, and its MS form looks good too. Probably one of my favourite MS in AGE.

One problem I have with the Clanche Custom is that it doesn't seem to be able to use its beam cannons on its wings in MS mode, given the angle they're positioned at, which is a pity.

Revolutionist · 2012-05-08, 11:31

I think the Clanche is ugly, the Flag and Brave were better looking both in MS mode and in plane mode.

SonicSP · 2012-05-08, 18:15

Personally I love the Clanches, and at the moment they're one of the best designs of AGE if you ask me, and I like a lot of AGE designs already. Also one of my favorites VMS to come out in a few years. The normal Clanche has that aerodynamic feel while being somewhat a Genoace sucessor due to the color while the Genoace Custom has that awesome tri-gun feel and the cooloer head. The way they use their beam sabers are nice as well, with the being able to just come out of the arms.

At least the Clanche doesn't have a rifle that could pass as the Flag's penis.

SonicSP · 2012-05-08, 18:41

I don't know, personally I prefer the Clanche as a whole more but I prefer the Flag's Rifle.

Ya lost me.

SonicSP · 2012-05-08, 18:51

I meant to Clanche's Rifle that is, although I like that one too.

You just escaped destruction.

SonicSP · 2012-05-08, 20:25

What can I say, I'm a diplomatic person. Although I've been also told I get impressed easily.

Revolutionist · 2012-05-08, 21:39

As far as transformable MS go in AGE, I think the Zedas is the coolest looking of them all. On the feds' side the only design I really liked was the Adele, everything else besides it and the Gundam is ugly =/

different strokes for different folks I guess

Gundam Wiki:

"Vagan technologies that were obtained over a long-term during the war have been applied to the AGE-3 including innovations not found in Federation MS.(HG AGE-3 manual citation) It is also the most unique of all the Earth Federation's mobile suits as it implemented the new Core Block System. Unlike previous Gundam units that have been developed under the control of Federation troops, the development of this machine was almost single-handedly carried out by retired military officer Flit Asuno.(HG AGE3 citation) The main generator built into the Gundam AGE-3 Normal boasts enough output for the simultaneous operation of multiple high-output weapons.(HG AGE-3 Cite) "

Pretty sure this section is copy-translated from J-Wiki, but informative nevertheless. I kept the citation placements. Good to have confirmation that AGE-3 was Flit developed, even if AGE System probably played a huge role in it nevertheless.
