How do you feel about beam rotors? Best invention of Late UC

>>13750718
It lets you fly, it's a shield, it's a weapon. It has no downsides and allows for cheap flight in a setting where only the only MS with true flight over than the overgrown clusterfuck called the Xi was the Victory.

Their only mistake was not creating a new mobile armour that's just a ball with beam rotors all over it

I like it. It slices, it dices, it allows the suit to hover, and it looks better in action on the forearm than it would on the back or head (as great as propeller beanies are, they'd look terrible in a fight.)

I think he meant without a MA mode cause there was countless mobile suits that could transform.

What's the point?

The first time I watched Victory, I though: "Shit. That's an amazing idea." Mostly massless, so you don't have to mess with a tail rotor.

>>13751011
too bulky and had limited firepower, plus it needed bigass fuel tanks

>>13751004
ReGZ suits that didn't transfrom, had a backpack allowing for atmospheric flight.

>>13750718
Initially I didn't like it but it grew on me really fast. Easy flight, shield, and weapon all in one and looks cool to boot.

>>13751169
It's debatable if the Re-GZ can fly in atmosphere. The BWS doesn't add any extra thrust, it should actually weigh down the machine more.

>>13751005
>fly info shit and destroy it
Sounds kinda awesome

>>13750728
do they ever use beam shields as weapons?

>>13751593
Not really, only beam rotors ever got used like that. Telling, isn't it?

They did, the zoloat's beam shield was also used as beam saber.

>>13751615
Also while a side MS the Vigna Roman's beam shields were also used as beam sabers.

>>13751615
Oh yeah, my bad.

>>13750718

Assuming it has a negligible effect on consumption, it was a pretty good idea. BESPA designed some retarded shit though.

>>13751654
The Recarl seemed like it was a mobile command centre/executive transport that was pushed into combat.

Jabaco was just pointless as fuck. Why have some heat rod/whip thing when you've already developed beam strings?

>>13751654
>>the entire einerad system
You mean the thing that worked as intended? It was effective.

>>13751666

Did they ever explain how tires worked? Were they made of gundarium? They mostly relied on existing beam shields and weapons on the gedlav and bruckeng. The zollidias seemed to be more useful for zanscare.

I actually really liked the Godzorla, and was disappointed it never reappeared in the form of a mass-produced type like the Rig Shokew.

>>13751654
>memedorza

was a pretty dank design

>>13750718
Duo used a mini beam rotor to escape from that hospital in Wing, thus confirming After Colony takes place after UC.
