maybe u can give her a prototype version of a new mobile suit in development

Sounds good.

[Crusader]

I might have a good suggestion but it might mean more work for you guys, but first of all, what type of pilot/fighter would she be? long ranged? med range? Close Combat? I have a few designs but lemme know what you need first, becaus two of them has striker-pack type addons.

[Soul]

I actually have two Gundam designs of my own that are pretty cool, but I have no way to show them .

[Crusader]

and I swear to God they stole my design for the duel pistol Gundam with Noir, Seriously I made it before I even watched Seed, so it's my idea damnit!

so angry u repeat every sentence? j/k
and dang maybe your neighbor tipped em off

[acekira]

If you guys are still looking into ideas for a suit for her, this might be a nice one. Instead of staying in the Seed universe, why not bring in a mobile suit or Gundam from another univers such as Wing or Zeta.
You could have it were she starts with a pretty good ms to it being severly damaged and then her ms being replaced by this New ms or Gundam. Just an idea.

[Crusader]

actually we are trying to stay in the seed unniverse.



Also, it was the damned fast reply button and my computer lagging so it must've doubleposted for me and someone changed it by combining them together
lol

[RedstarsamuraiLuke]

haha crusader! and maybe give her first off a Astray then she goes to H Dreadnought (mass produced version)

[Crusader]

well I dont think there would be a mass produced version, since it's a specially custome version of the Dreadnaught.


You cant have mass produced versions of a custom unit, that's the law lol.

[RedstarsamuraiLuke]

which makes me think....why is the prototype always better than the MP version? god might as well MP a prototype

[Crusader]

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm.



Ok, do I really have to answer this one? I'll give it a try then.





This is the utmost reason. $$$$$$$$$$


Seriously, do you know how much the Prototypes actually cost? to have an actual army of them, you'd need tons of funds, and to give them to regular soilders who'd just get shot and die, wasting all the money? I dont think so.


So there, instead of having Strikes running all over the battlefield, we have Strike Daggers so save some money while still having enough ppl around to fight for us.






In real war, would you use all special forces personale for everything, including simple checkpoint guargins and patroling? no, you have regular soldiers for that, Special forces are for the purpose of their namesake, "Special missions".

[Dark Lord Revan]

Yes. And there's a limit as to the performance of a prototype MS. In actuality, their survivability is usually due to the skill of the pilot. The tech plays a part, but a smaller part. Prototypes are really just proof-of-concept units. Once their effectiveness in their role is proven, they MP a cheaper, easier to build model that takes the same design concept, but not the same design. Er...thats why its a MP model, cuse its cheap and easy enough to MP. What crusader said.

[Crusader]

Exactly.

MP models are meant for large numbers with a relatively cheaper price, and thus they will also have a more expendible nature.


People die in war, it is a known fact, so might as well have them die in something that wont cost you as much so you dont waste anything since the war still needs more funds.






As an additional sidenote, MP models will usually have some improvements in the design that will correct some of the problems found in the testing and usage of the Prototype models. which is also why people will have their personal modifications on their personal MS. Miguel's personal Ginn has a higher manuverability and thrust ratio, as well as a combat shield. though it was damaged so he was not ablt to use it for the heliopolis mission, which might've actually caused his death when you think about it.

Canard modified his Hyperion with a N-Jammer Canceller and a Nuclear Drive for unlimited power for his defense and attack system.

Each of the Astray Frame units were heavily modified as to their original form in different ways, all to increase their effectiveness in combat relevant to their respective pilots.




Just to name a few examples. wait where was I going with this again?
