[OOC] Gundam Build Fighters Imagine! [6/7]

[Renny]

Awesome, I had fun with that post and hopefully the imagery came through well. I had it clear in my head, here's hoping it translated properly lol.

[KenjuGuy]

The worst part is that Jun seriously thought he was someone's dad or uncle.

In terms of anime, 19 is considered old age. So there's nothing wrong here.

EDIT: It was great! @Renny

[Renny]

@KenjuGuy I agree with ya there lol. I'm expecting plenty of 'old man' jokes.

[Double]

Did we ever reach a consensus on what our ship looks like? Seemed like the Argama was getting the most votes. But looking at its design, I'm not sure how we can work in a Wave Motion Gun weapon. The main concept is that the entire length of the ship serves as the barrel for the gun. The Aegama's shape doesn't look like it would very compatible that concept. Unless I'm missing something?

[Renny]

@Double I started looking up some other ships that might be more suited and maybe easier to explain away being shaped and remodeled. I ended up stumbling on this one Sadalahn. Maybe that one would fit better. I'm sure there are others that resemble what you're looking for better but this is the first that seemed to be a cohesive similar to a gunbarrel.

[Double]

Hmm, well, so far the Amalthea-class looks like it has a good shape for a Wave Motion Gun barrel, just not sure how anyone feels about using a Zanscare Empire ship. The Aoyagi-class looks like a decent fit as well, if something from Gundam X is more to your liking. I'm not a huge fan of the Cosmic Era, but the Nelson-class could work as well, potentially.

[Renny]

I think my favorite is the Amalthea-class. It doesn't have alot bogging it down and with its simple design we could easily explain someone fitting it with a Wave Motion Gun.

I can see the back spinning and the front opening up now. Well that does it for me, I'm throwing in my vote for the Zanscare Empire ship.

[Crimson Lion]

The reason I liked Nahel Argama was because it had everything we could need, from catapults to the mega particle cannon. On that note I'd vote for Amalthea-class because it has almost the same specs. Story wise we can say that Riku, Naoki and whoever else wants in on helping in its 'design' are the ones who 3-d printed parts to make the middle a Wave Motion Cannon.

[Double]

One if my rough ideas was to equip the flagship with a GN Drive and/or GN Condensor so that it could use the Trans Am System as a way to power the WMG (in the actual series it required the engine's power to be overclocked to 120% in order to successfully charge and fire the weapon) but we could also just the 3D printer idea to sort of fudge something into existence.

[Renny]

Sounds like a good idea and it seems like the simplest method to overclock the Yamato. I'm just waking up, so that's all I can think to add. But I say we go for it. The Amalthea-class with its GN-Drive(s) should be able to produce a powerful Wave Motion Gun.

EDIT. Also I think its safe to move on @Crimson Lion.

[Crimson Lion]

Sorry for the delay, works been hectic. Writing up the next part now, just need one more part done and I'll post.

[Crimson Lion]

I've finally Posted! Our battles have been set and the teams first official fight begins!!

[KenjuGuy]

Neat, and of course it's no problem man. We all got business to take care of

also @Crimson Lion mind if I write in my post that Jun was dragged away by Naoki? As I can't think of any other way he would walk away from what Ryoichi said

[Renny]

@Crimson Lion Awesome, also sorry if it seemed like I was rushing ya.

[Crimson Lion]

@KenjuGuy It’s perfectly fine, go ahead.

@Renny It’s no problem. I honestly intended to post sooner so I felt bad

[Double]

Hurray, I posted!

Sorry about the ship's description being so uh... wordy. But at this point it's safe to say that the flagship has kinda become my (or rather, Riku's) pride and joy.

[Renny]

@Crimson Lion No need, I obviously stuffed my foot in my mouth. Should've trusted you were keeping up with this. Anyway, super excited. Gonna start working on my own post in a bit.

[Double]

I also wanted to apologize for essentially hijacking the choices for how our ship is designed. You know, in case that may have rubbed someone the wrong way.

I guess you could say I wanted the design of the ship to be the thing that really solidifies Riku's place on the team. Kai and Jun are already well known and even have cool nicknames to intimidate people with. So I hoped this would be Riku's way of firmly establishing himself in the world of Gunpla, particularly as a builder.

[Renny]

Guys we gotta let him have this. I'm the old guy, so even I have a gimmick going for me.

@Double Also Double, it was your idea for the most part and while I agree that everyone on board should have I say, I think we all had a chance to put forth any rejections to the idea. In my opinion, its all good.

[Dezuel]

Will be posting on monday :).
