Hmm, I think GN-X's rifle might have higher outputs(even higher tha Dynames's GN sniper rifle). Beam rifles use by the Thrones and Exia seems smaller than them, and most probably lower outputs than GN-X's. The GN Field is not almighty though, coz they cannot withstand a very strong attack(for example, GN Arms beam cannon, and most probably, Virtue's beam cannon and GN Bazooka), unless the density of the GN Particles emitted is high. I think Ptolemaios with the GN particle shield upped can withstand GN-X rifle shot

Huhu, true2. That just reminds me of Gundam X anime. I think Gundams(and some grunt MS like Crouda) in that series is among the one that has toughest armor in Gundam history, coz they can withstand beam attack without some sort of defense field or special coating. However, the can't withstand beam weaponry from Space Revolutionary Army, coz theirs have higher outputs.

I think the grunt mecha which has the toughest armor is the Crouda. Its only weakness is direct shoot to its front exhaust port

Huhu, Kampfer downed so easily coz its armor protection is sacrificed to give it better maneuverability and speed (more thruster and vernier). Alex's forearm-mounted gatling gun is only 90mm, not 120mm like the Zaku machinegun. If Kampfer has thicker armor, maybe it can survive

That's in ep 22. But in 23......

Huhu, the irony is Daryl's friend Howard killed by Throne Zwei (albeit by different pilot), but his suicide attack help saved Throne Zwei

Subbed version too already out

Hmm, their thruster might be, but their generator is Minovsky fusion reactor. Somehow I feel Minovsky fusion reactor in UC is somewhat simlar wif GN Drive (both use element taht isnt existing in real world;Minovsky particle and GN particle). Both Minovsky and GN particles have the ability to disrupt radar and comm signal, and both have anti-gravity property. Furthermore, beam weaponry in UC is not laser, but instead a high density particles, juz like how beam weaponry works in Gundam 00. The slight difference is that Minovsky particle(in form of I-Field) can only block beam weaponry, while GN particle can block almost anything

Nah, Allejandro isnt their main sponsor. He is only one of the sponsor (if u see the part which they approve Trinity as part of CB, there are several more, plus Wang Liu Mei is still on CB side)

I think they also funding CB. If juz observer, how can determine whether someone is accepted as CB or not

Hmm, if i'm not mistaken, during UC, Minovsky particles are widely used. Minovsky particles disrupt comm signal and radar. It also disrupt missile lockon system. That's why MS is introduced in UC, coz they cant use missile as effectively as in our world today. That's why in UC(if i'm not mistaken), you'll find missile that can only travel straight, and easily avoided by MSes. If u compared to our world, surely MS can be easily destroyed by aircraft missile. But, if the missile cant follow moving targets, that's different story. In UC, aircraft have to fly low to attack, coz they cant lock the target from far away. MS also can carry more powerful weapon than any tanks can. For example, Zaku machinegun rounds is 120mm, and Dom bazooka is 360mm.

GN Overflag maybe?
But I'm sure he will still piloting a Flag(he swear to Howard's grave), juz the specification and the capabilities is far different than any other Flag. Basically, anything that resembles and named with "flag"

If i'm not mistaken, his original Overflag is already faster than Exia (heck, since Graham get his Overflag, I think no MS ever score a hit against him). The only problem is the G-effect. With the GN Drive installed (and the G-effect eliminated), his Overflags can be very well compete against the new gundams in season 2

Meh, beam technology in Gundams are basically using [insert particles name]particles, which didnt exist in real world. If those particles exist, there might be beam weapons can be made using those particles. If you check info about rail gun/ coil gun, there are version that uses electrical charge as the projectile, instead of using physical bullet. If you swap the electrical charge with the said particles, you get beam gun. In UC Gundam, they use energy cap, which stores compressed Minovsky particles, which then later become the projectiles for the beam weapons (VSBR use direct connection to the MS reactor, which also use Minovsky particles as power source). In Gundam 00, they use GN Particles though (the normal rail gun/ coil gun are the ones used by the grunts)

AU = Alternate Universe, meaning not Gundam series that was not set in UC (Universal Century) era, as the first Gundam series(till V Gundam). G-Gundam, Gundam Wing, Gundam-X, Gundam Turn A, Gundam Seed and Gundam OO are the AU Gundam series

Eh? Is that so? Coz although some MS from UC did appear in Turn A, there's no indication that Turn A happen after UC (Zaku is one of the early mass-product MS in UC, and starting from F91, I think they were not seen anymore), more like in alternate UC

What I mean by Zaku is:
In V Gundam, in which is suppose to be the last Gundam series(time wise) in UC, didnt have Zaku in it, which implies that all Zaku, well, maybe except those displayed in museum, were already extinct (well, Jegan in F91 was already considered to be very old). Then, if Zaku were already extinct by the time of V Gundam, how come in Turn A Gundam time, they can excavate a bunch of Zaku (Borjanon)? This only shows that Turn A Gundam might happen in some kind of alternate UC, in which the Moonlight Butterfly incident happen around the time of ZZ Gundam to CCA time, b4 F91(technology-wise), where Zaku is still exist, and AMX-109 Capule (Mobile Kapool in Turn A) are used.

Hmm, the lanced MS do look like Knightmare in Code Geass, but lance weapon did exist in Gundam before, if i'm not mistaken, used by most of Crossbone Vanguard MS in F91. The lance (if i'm not mistaken) are used to penetrate beam shield.

From a novel, set at some time after CCA time

In Seed, when Zaft attacked OMNI base to get the linear catapult. Many of their GINN and Goohn KOed by turrets (that time EF didnt bring out their MS yet)

You must mean this one:

My fren did play it once. He got axed by a Zaku as soon as he roll out
