Congrats on getting through it! It's been so fun seeing someone watch it for the first time through the snapshots of your posts.

I forgot these were a thing.

they are starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel in terms of pilots in general by that point honestly, let alone *good* pilots.

Basically anyone from sides 2,4, and 5 would have lost most of their families. Anyone from AUS, places along the pacific coasts, and a good part of north America would have also been pretty effected.

the thing that really messes with me about that is in the setting half of the human population is dead by month 2.

Imagine trying to get together something close to a passible logistics system for both a space and ground war when 50% of everyone is gone. logi service were fucking god-like.

To be fair, the Tellarites and andorians actually do kinda like humans.

Humans can argue with the best of them, and we have a lot in common with the andorian mindset.

There's a reason zeon pilots call the Gundam "the white devil".

and to think, all it took to make it a major success was a bunch of horny Japanese women who shipped the hell out of char and amuro.

lol if your not aware of it already, they had to cut down the number of episodes in the series suddenly near the second half *and* had their budget cut many times.

much like TOS, MSG was thought to be a total flop at first.

Jesus, with that perspective it looks like a 12ft long tub.

The federation should pass a law that the Salamis-class cruiser should not be photo'd from the front.

Yeah!

People sleep on the rest of the white base pilots but those kids are nothing to shake a stick at, they will kill a zeek without a second thought.

Now it being piloted by an emotionally damaged teen precog is totally fair though.

Not even a mustang, more like an early interwar monoplane.

The zaku was great, when it was literally the only ms on the field. As soon as the federation put out *anything* it became outclassed.

The Gundam is good but it's still a clumsy early development machine.

It also led to the jet core booster later in the war (which might actually mean it was the first part of project V that actually entered into mass production)

30.07.2025 01:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

To be fair, in the extended lore the core fighter is actually a testbed for a proper fighter craft that just got roped into project V for funding reasons.

It'd sure be a shame if that guilty emotionally damaged 15 year old only took away from that was

"Maybe if you were better you *could* have saved her and won the war"

god, the corn lobby is going to go to war over it if this admin try it.

on principle I wouldn't mind HFCS being in less things, but that along with the tariffs would legit tank domestic corn prices into the ground and kill so many farming operations.

accountant has a 1000-yard stare when these agents talk about developing a mutagenic virus for shapeshifters. When they damn well know they haven't been able to fund the bio-tech department for years.

Just a bunch of ideas on a board in the back of the black site office, but the one accountant just keeps turning them down saying "no budget for that"
