Nah, the beams are straight like normal. It's the emitters, the guns themselves, that are mounted on swivel joints so they have a range of motion, allowing them to track targets and "drag" the beams across areas without the machine itself moving.

Except this contradicts the show? Lucas Nemesis was a top tier player and the limited energy rule was what made sure he couldn't just run rampant with his Crossbone Full Cloth going super fast, using a bunch extremely powerful weapons and having two i-field emitters to boot. Which is kind of what pretty much every unit here does, btw. His entire strategy had to take the limitations into account and use his teammates as resupply depots, and he essentially lost because he hinged his bets on being able to blitz a team before gassing out and couldn't pull through.

True, but that and the Try Fighter match against Tryon-3 are the only time energy management was ever mentioned as 'something to keep an eye on' and it was only used as 'plot armor' so the Try Fighters and Celestial Sphere could battle each other.

Also, keep in mind it was coming from Yuki's perspective, she's not exactly the most 'attentive' when it comes to the 'Pro Circuit'... or Gundam lore ...
