But then Regius also placed a lot of hope on the Einherjar, which I have been told is a Very Big Cannon. I have absolutely no clue how a Very Big Cannon can help in apprehending dangerous criminals in, yanno, cities and other populated areas, which is what Regius seemed to be worried about at first. Quote:
Chrono, though, I have to assume picked his own position, since he was an Enforcer as a kid, and I don't think the TSAB would have any reason to take him out of that role if he didn't want to. Lindy I don't know, although now I'm wondering what her barrier jacket would look like. And Yuuno, who could easily stand up to Vita without a Device of his own, became a Librarian, although this does fit his skillset. But Arf? What is she doing in the Library with Yuuno? Shouldn't she be helping out Fate? - I'm still trying to work out all the fallout from the events of StrikerS, like Regius dying after being exposed as a conspirator to black projects, as well as the Brain Trust getting smashed. Is there anything in the sound stages or such? Incidentally, if you were to force me to choose which side of the hawk-vs-dove divide I'd be on, I would fall firmly on the side of the dove. I'm a bit too idealistic for this to work in Real Life, but this is the Nanoha-verse, which seems quite suited for idealism. This does mean that I can't really comment on a lot of the very military units and characters being introduced recently in this thread, mainly because I can't get over my gut reaction of "but why would the TSAB even have anything like that?" - EDIT: Post claim: IT'S OVER NINE(teen) THOUSAND!! |

Not really much. Ground Forces and Main HQ's relationship will speculatively improve by Chrono and Genya's discussion, but nothing really concrete on what's with the whole Brains and Regius thing, other than the fact that Regius's daughter is said to be undergoing trial regarding the case.

I think everything else was already mentioned by others. Quote:

Akin to something like this. A character needs to chant to use a powerful spell to begin with, so rather than thinking up something, one just reference something else. If one doesn't get it, it doesn't matter since it still works in the context, but if one gets, it's win-win situation. Quote:
Personally, I see nothing wrong here. Reasonably nice of histories, and I like that little touch with the whole trigger thing. Quote:
I'm noticing a trend for extravagant titles as of late. Jokes aside, was quite solid. Photobucket needs upgrade much? Quote:
With the latest DVD-episode refix, it shows Exceed Mode Nanoha flying in the tunnel carrying Teana, which kinda means that Nanoha's top-flight speed carrying someone... is not really fast. Yes, she's carrying Teana, but the aforemention of Subaru's top-speed being higher in urban areas does speak a little of the average speed-control mechanism in Nanohaverse. I don't think anyone of them is close to breaking regular jet speed unless with Sonic or Flash something, and that is no long term boost. Same with attack radius for most parts. I read that as Excellen/Alfimi lemon. Though Alfimi belongs to Axel now. Quote:
As for Hayate vs Vita... hmm... One image that comes into mind is kinda like... Negi vs Takahata. Only remove Negi's kempo thing with mid-ranged out-fighting spells and delayed spells... as delayed spells, though not necesarrily close range attack. Quote:
Unlike Fate and Nanoha, Hayate never really went through the same officer course they did, and never reached her claim to fame as the Ace of Aces, so in the long run, Nanoha exhausted herself much more than Hayate did, in both combat and training. As dangerous as whatever Nanoha and co. can do to their body, it is still mostly regulated and what they use aren't extremely dangerous. It's mostly a long-term effect thing, and for active members like Fate and Nanoha, it's a bad thing.

you see, you're designing a unit that has capability to counter anything, anywhere... Quote:

...an explosion is always inefficient compared to any fully directional blast with the same force, since an explosion goes in all directions, it will fail to deliver much of it's energy at the intended target. So if you're intending to save energy on any level (magical or mundane) you stick to everything that doesn't blow up at the end, but instead punches through... especially since you'll be targeting humans with this thing, if you get through the defences, there's no point in blowing up, as that would be a waste of energy. a person with a hole in his chest is just as dead as the one whos chest got blown off... so if you can gather energy from surrounding into the shot, use it for penetration, instead of explosion. Quote:
As a matter of fact, isn't this bloody suit meant to give lower ranked mages better combat capabilities against higher ranked mages by maximizing efficiency? Where exactly does the mirv come in? Even if you want it as a 'normal' fighting unit besides being anti-hero fighting unit, there's still no need for anything above rifle levels of different calibers... ...and since when has any army EVER added cool unnecessary things to ANYTHING that a regular bootstomper can have? Edit: have you noticed how everyone is kinda ignoring this entire debate now?

@ (Big)SpaceBrotha ( )
I got a perfect idea then... The prototype is for testing with the character... so the needs you say about it not being specialized are pointed out by the various tests. Thus that leads to the project splitting into severak directions for the High speed and high power combat specializations. Oh, and the mention of 5.56 mm nato rounds. No bullets are used. That's just a comparison of impact power per magical efficiency shot. I thought I explained that. Anywho, I'm working on something of a story proloque at the moment, and I'll use that a little to iron out some kinks. |

A modular prototype seems like a sensible solution, so you could test out different configurations without having to build a new unit whenever you wish to have a different set of armaments on it. ...actually, now that i think about it, This would be the perfect excuse to really have every single type of weapon on that suit of yours... instead of having them all on it at the same time, have different sets of armaments for different combat situations (melee with extra def and speed, close to mid range, and artillery) and have them changeable only at the base (or research lab). This would allow you to add more weaponry, and different specializations without too much sacrifice in believability and haxbuster alerts... But that's only a suggestion, i think we've milked out this debate for all it's worth. Ps. module code names could be F4T3, N4N0 and SH4FT, respectively

Promote them? Yes, but up to a certain rank where they can still work in the field. And yes, my problem is giving such young people high ranks in the first place. Also, if anything, I though Chrono was just the SHip's second in command? A Commander?

As for Hayate... it's a spoiler for JT3, but Franz actually "kills" her by pulling out a Magnum pistol and shooting her three times in the chest. Fortunately, the pistol was loaded with Tranquilizer Training Rounds, which just knock you out and stain your clothes red. ...he nearly became a stain on Laevatine for that. Quote:

But yes, Hayate is definately very young for an LTC's slot.

a) Melee: Novice -> Rudimentary b) Mid-range: Still pending c) Range: Powerful, but slow. d) Defense: High(?) e) Maneuverability: Around Average f) Spellcasting in general: Slow g Spells Available: Numerous h) Mana: Need I say more? i) Control: A bit higher or static? I'll admit, it's very difficult... I'm taking what canon gives us as a base and work on it to properly improve what Hayate can do currently. Right Now, after some thought, I'm no longer buying the 'weaker than Caro'-excuse after what we are shown in ep. 25... But that's with Unison in. I'll keep her role as a rear-attacker, but I'll give her some leeways of handling closer-ranges without appearing off-balance. The one thing I hate second to the shafting is how they made her completely neglect her own training in StrikerS, so I'll fix it my own way. Nobody can deny that she has tremendous potential as she is now, so I'll be using it. Though advice would be very appreciated... Quote:

Actually it went like this:
Hayate: "Oh, there's no need to worry on close combat, I'll just fire away from long range." Franz: "If someone shoots you?" Hayate: "I'll just use a barrier." Franz: "Ah. kk." *whips out Halo 2 Magnum pistol* BLAM BLAM BLAM! "Magnum pwns you." Hayate: *KOed* Signum: "HOW DARE YOU KILL OUR MISTRESS?!?! I'LL MAKE YOU A STAIN ON LAEVATINE'S BLADE!" Franz: "It's Non-lethal! She's just KOed!" Signum: "As you stained our Mistress' clothing, so also shall your blood stain your clothing!" Franz: "It's water solouble! What is your problem?!" Signum: "...I just want to hit someone with Laevatine." Franz: "OI! HELP! Chief!" Glen: "He went to get his armor and help the Sergeant Major. You're on your own."
