>Remove all beam weapons>instantly become a better design
Command's always been styled after the kind of American tacticool popular here. That was the whole point of G-ARMS.
>is still powered by a magical particle generating device that allows it to float, fly, go 3x faster, etc.. seems fucking silly.
>>22923875Dipshit it has a beam rifle
Kinda sad we got stuck with a head-swapping Grimoire for these guys
>>22923899What coulda been
>>22923891Legally, that is an art installation.
>>22923891It doesn't. It has a physical ammunition rifle.
>>22923926I assume he means the beam launcher in the shield.
>>22923931That's a physical rocket launcher, no beams.
Can you hear me Bandai!!!
>>22924423I am still waiting!!!
>>22923933Uh-huh. Sure it is.
>>22925153Really annoyed that Bandai couldn't be arsed to update the 00 Qant mold for this or even any of the other Build fighters 00 variants.
>>22923875Would anon say that about the Virtue?
>>22926080Yes, the original sucks. That is a 1000% improvement.
>>22926080I'm a Yanase's fan but Virtue is somehow my least favourite design from him.
Leopard is like the reverse of this.
>>22923875Original Command>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ebikawa shit
>>22941037It really isn't, because people constantly ignore that it's main weapon is a beam gatling.
>>22924426Oh the fucking Radome as a Beret is such a fun design.
>>22937523Well the original is, this version is better. >>22926080
>>22923875Good, beams are cringe.
>>22923875No. Beams are better.
>>22941136Anon, that's a fan art. Original Command is SD.
>>22923875You want IBO?
>>22941136Don't be rude to Ebikawa.
One of the best designs
>>22951136Are you sure?

Actually, I'm curious now.If any of you guys were to replace all of the ZZ Gundam's beam weapons with ballistics/missiles, what would you do to take the Hi-Mega's spot?Nuclear railgun a lá MG Rex? A less insane thing like a high caliber machinegun with, I dunno, specialized luna titanium rounds or something like that for ammo? Just keep it because the High Mega Cannon is fucking insane and I'd say a trademark of the ZZ?
>>22923900i didn't even notice those were zaku arms...
>>22926080the virtue sucks>Gundams established as OP but also have different roles>we have a heavy weapons Gundam, cool right?>it shoots beams, all other Gundam even the melee one does this as well>basic beam attacks established as easily being able to take down any MS they come across, even the shitty pistol beam guns>but the Virtue has a BIG beam cannon>what does it do?>same thing as other beam weapons just bigger and more recoil and power drain, functionally the effect has changed not at all as everything dies to a beam weapon in 1 shot anywaysthis is why Gundam needs to focus more on normal conventional weapons and leave beam weapons as a special thing or a weapon with a lot of drawback. When everything is flashy beam weapons it cheapens everything. UC does it the best because it has officially stats related to the beam weapons strength, but even then it's totally a meme that theyve desperately tried to patch over in more recent media by showing beam weapons not always 100% blowing up MS anyways in 1 shot no matter how strong they are. Crazy to me that there has been no meaningful depiction of beam protection except for equally as flashy and stupid beam shields in this franchise. Anti-beam coating is literally a thing and never used at all, at least show beams dispersing over armor some?

>>22985121Also, GN particle shields, even if they look like beam shields
>ADD bigger bema guns>Design becomes instantly superior
>22986321meh
>>22986321>Repair 3They skipped 2. Also this is the closest thing to Tieria mating with Neil ever.
>>22990660The 00 naming scheme is a mess, don't sweat it
>>22990701>Cherudim Repair II is just Cherudim with a Seraphim hanging off the back
>>22990701It's all over Gundam and even IRL where they skip a number. It's like how there's no Windows 9.
>>22990660And they managed to create what is possibly the sexiest MS in 00, showing that they were the OTP all along
>add MORE beam weapons>instantly become a better design
>>22996955>fighting it>waiting for chance to strike>okay his gun is out of ammo>pulls out another>wait more>keeps on pulling out more guns>for fuck's sake>eventually run out of batteries yourself and the enemy gets away
>>22990660They didn't skip R2It just doesn't have anything new
>>22998828Makes more sense than Exia having seven swords at least
>>22941136Why fantasize about a OYW command gundam when the FA exists anon
>>23004894What in the goddamn?
>>22986321No, that looks like shit.
>Create MS with kinetic weapons>Upgrade it by giving it beam weapons>Upgrade it again by giving it kinetic weapons
>>23025883I want to give that gun to the Armored VF-1J.
The OG, at least, was armed with a Twin Laser Machine Gun. The big cannon is called the "NC Heavy Gun" but I don't know what NC stands for. However, I do know the Twin Laser Machine Gun could combine with the NC Heavy Gun, so it's probably some kind of energy weapon as well.
>>22923875>Remove all beam weaponsThere is a Beam Cannon in the "Arms Shield."https://gundam.wiki.cre.jp/wiki/%E3%82%AC%E3%83%B3%E3%83%80%E3%83%A0%E3%83%80%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB%E3%82%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B3%E3%83%9E%E3%83%B3%E3%83%89%E3%82%AF%E3%82%A2%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF
>>22962433>full "win" instead of just wThat's just a boomer tryna be hip
>>22985026Virtue was the crowd control machine, lays a wide suppressing assault so the others can go in more surgically.To some extent I can see your point because the gundams were so advanced they could cut through anything like paper.But there is a reason or two why I could see it still being a viable ms.>CB Gundams often operated in pars, Dynames/Exia, Exia/Virtue, Kyrios/Virtue, etcIn this context it makes sense because the virtue's role isn't as redundant when paired with others.>The Virtue was designed as an anti-Gundam MSThe trial system as well as the Exia and Kyrios physical blades show that anti-Gundam warfare was anticipated, which is where the virtue becomes more useful>Defensive capabilityThe GN field is one of the key points of the virtue, it's the strongest Gundam in terms of defense and the field allows it to protect its allies while continuing to lay fire.
>>23027420Ironically one of the few times CB were really in trouble was when they were almost overwhelmed by massed grunts, and the Thrones had to bail them out. So Virtue failed her designated job
>>23027462It wasn't massed grunts, it was indirect massed artillery and missile barrages from all directions. None of the Gundams had the ability to intercept millions of rounds, and GN beams fire in a straight line and can't return indirect fire against the artillery units, so they decided to hunker down in place. After 15 hours of continuous mass bombardment, each Gundam was taken out individually by specialist squads.
