In one of the trailer (the very latest/last one), Standard Brave fired a Tri-Punisher.

Pause the video at 53 seconds in.

I see although the setup is a bit different the 2 binders aren't pointing forward like the comman model if you go full screen press pause a few times starting a 52 seconds you'll see it might take you few tries though.

It's been stated as the name for a while so it's not new. It's just simply the codename of the Overflag Linear Rifle just like Drake Howling is the codename of the Brave beam rifle.

Crossfire was the name of another one of the Flag's Rifle but I cannot remember which one, I think it was the initial Custom Flag one.

Actually, the only difference are the two GN Drives. The ESF is deciding whether or not to use one or two GN Drives on the finalized mass production Brave.

What has actually surprise me thus far is the lack of any dangerous acceleration releases that Graham has a habit of putting in his last mobile suits. Oh well, I guess having an extra Drive will cut it for him this time around as a general purpose upgrade over the other Braves.

Mind taking a picture? I know which part your talking about, but the vid moves so fast that it always leaves afterimages of the Flag when I pause it so it's hard to make a look at the setup.

If it is different though, I'll need to analyse it so I can put it into the article at the Wikia. Hmmm.........binders not pointing forwards huh? I wonder if that even classifies as a Tri Punisher attack since the GN Cannon's involvement seem to be important to it based on the description.

Alright I got the picture fixed and working now and if you look close you can see the binders aren't point forward.

I think I got it fixed.

The MLR-04 Crossfire on the Colony Guard Flag would be the MP version of the Custom Flag's XLR-04.

Oh hell,yes. That was one of the most awesome moves in gundam 00 history. Graham allowed a gigantic stream of ELS to chase him, then he transformed the brave from MA to MS mode and suddenly went reverse and fired the tri-punisher.

Oh shit, that was another scene.

The standard test type braves did do tri-punisher, but in combo. One brave in MA mode lures a gigantic long gigantic stream of ELS, while the other fires the tri-punisher at the stream, saving the Gundam's arse.

[Blazer-X]

Well, this is totally going by memory, but in one of the later battle scenes in the final ELS wave (not shown in the trailers), I remember Graham and all the other remaining Braves lining up and charging up what looked like a tri-punisher fire. I thought it was derived from the Alvarron at the time because it was also charging up a sphere, but now that I think about it, it seems to be the tri-punisher.

I don't think the binders pointing forward make any difference. The Tri-Punisher attack comes from connecting the rifle into the chest.

The other photo of Graham's Brave using the Tri-Punisher shows the binders pointing forward for thrust to propel himself away from the ELS wave.

Least that's my theory.

The ESF's access to the Innovades' technology and Veda probably allowed them to incorporate inertial dampeners that could actually deal with the speeds Graham wanted.

It'd figure the one time he uses safety precautions would be the one time he dies.

Spoiler:

I don't think it's so much that he used safety precautions, but that it's the first time the safety precautions were adequate.

Hard core irony.

Anyway, I assume we still don't have any idea what MS this is seen next to the GN-XIV?

Flag body but releasing GN Particles, anyone know?

[gordol]

it's an orbit flag running of a gn drive, a space tieren also appears using a gn drive

Is that so? Are you sure they're running on a GN Drive specifically, or just using condensers and such?

Yeah Sonic from the descriptions I have read it does seem like those GN Cannon's are involved with the Tri Punisher however regardless of what it's called it still fires off a shot in same class as the Gadessa's GN Mega launcher.
I reposted my orginal picture below and took 2 more hope it helps.

As I said, I don't think the position of the hip binders make any difference on the power of the Tri-Punisher.

Actually, Graham is known to disable or remove performance limiters/ safety equipment on his mechs to gain maximum combat performance. He did it with his Custom Flag, the Masurao and the Susanowoo.

IIRC it's the HG Overflag manual that states that they have performance limiters to reduce strain on the pilot, something which Graham's Custom Flag does not even after he switched from using the XLR-04 rifle (Custom Flag config) to the Trident Striker (Overflag config) because he prefers it.
