How do you successfully fight a newtype in a mobile suit battle without resorting to non conventional technology like psychics, cyborgs, other newtypesand gundam grade weaponry?
>>
>>13967111
If they can predict the future two seconds ahead of me, I just need to kill them within a frame of three.
For example, let's say I lure them into a massive C4 field. Even if they realise what it is two seconds before I detonate, the explosion will simply be too large for them to dodge by that point.
>>
Be a super pilot.
>>
Be a Yazan or an Ali

>>13967133
That isnt what they do though
>>
>>13967136
Don't they sense peoples feelings , like when your brain becomes more active when you try to do an offensive move? I thought they could somewhat reinterpret that to take the initiative in combat.
>>
>>13967111
Be a good pilot. Newtype abilities aren't all knowing and incredibly fickle.

By using a machine that has almost equal, or better maneuverability, having great special awareness, and moving purely on instinct (they always seem to have trouble with these types).
>>
>>13967111
By being real good. Be Yazan, be Garrod. Most newtypes are teens with low experience anyway.
>>
>>13967111
Confine and control their movement, use aoe weapons and shotguns,and saturation fire.

Find out what they are after and keep them chasing that far away from your main forces.

Take some notes from HK-47 on how to take out jedi.

Probably the best way is to get them out of their suits with tasty bait and just shoot them.
>>
>>13967150
They cant just see a certain amount of time in the future like fucking doppio despite what OP suggests
They can perceive things without seeing or hearing them and read thoughts sometimes but if they look into the future it is just a premonition
>>
I recall Usso fought off a newtype predicting his moves by using the V2 parts, which are automated, so she couldn't sense them

Depends
If they dont have funnels you just have to be a better pilot 1:1 than them and not rely on surprise attacks and since panoramic cockpits basically give you newtype spatial awareness anyway you can do this without much trouble
If they have funnels you need to be a meme machine like Yazan

This.
>>
>>13967136
This. Yazan, Ali, the Roberto bros in GBF are also a good example
>>
>>13967150

Newtypes are basically weaponised empaths

they can sense intent and emotions within other human beings (and even moreso with each other) this was meant to be the next evolution of humanity, where we could break the confines of language and limited communication and truly know each other's thoughts and meaning direct mind to mind.

Both the Feds and Zeon took that inate ability for true relationship and understanding, and twisted and abused it to be used as a weapon, to kill and destroy other living beings, in direct opposition of their natural state of perfect empathetic harmony, which is why the fates of newtypes is so particularly tragic.

just shoot them til they die

How do you kill Amuro who's a super pilot and a great newtype?

No, they just have enhanced spatial awareness.

More powerful Newtype abilities include
>powering up a properly equipped mobile suit
>sensing the spirits of the dead, usually during a protagonist newtype's epiphany although you get it from antagonist newtypes too right when they're about to get fucked in the ass by the protagonist
>psychically crushing the opponent's mind

>Healing the sick and wounded although only one Newtype has ever exhibited that power on a large scale

By having on par machine or higher than your NT enemy helps. But if the said NT is a autistic manchild and having a girl's name you might be in trouble. Or just think about semi naked woman, that helps too

What if you got someone who was autistic and their brain doesn't operate or feel/project emotion the same way as a normal person?

Would that pilot have an advantage over a newtype?

Considering Kamille was autistic AND a newtype, maybe not.

How, exactly, do Newtypes experience our feelings?

Can we overwhelm their feelings? Can we make a abloobloobloo-flashbang that sends out crippling "emotional waves" to overwhelm their senses?

If that fails, combat drugs and/or psychedelics, and a scorched earth policy.

Well Kycillia literally had an entire fucking battalion dedicated to it, though unfortunately most of them don't seem to be on Yazan's level. I have hope for I AM NOT JOHNNY RIDDEN though.

Yazan was anything but emotionless.

>>
>>13971988
>I meant, be a sociopathic, ruthless, cold-blooded warrior.

Unfortunately the track records of people with these traits aren't very good, even with guys like Yazan and Ali counting. There's just a lot of fodder like that.
>>
>>13971988
Roberto tactics are small time compared to guys like Henry from Gihren's Assassination Plot. The next GBF MC should be Led Wayline.
>>
>>13972008
That's because it's a show. IRL, those guys would dominate the field of battle, and refuse promotion, just so they cod wreak more havoc, and shoot/stab/burn/whatev shit to death
>>
>>13971836
There was the case of Dozle and the Big Zam

Apparently, Dozle's emotions were so powerful that they cause Amuro to hallucinate. Scared the piss out of him.
>>
>>13972017
IRL, those people tend to be the worst soldiers, defying orders, running off alone, and getting other people killed trying to keep them alive.

The best soldiers tend to be good because they work well with others. There's limits to what an individual can do but a group can can do anything. Remember, Warriors fight, Soldiers fight together.
>>
>>13967111
It probably would be negated by Minovsky particles but what if they developed some kind of non EXAM or Trans-Am computer aided system that did all the predictions for the pilot, matched Newtype skill, so they were on equal footing? Like a fly-by-wire system. Did they try that? Or an automated system like the Mobile Dolls from Wing.
>>
>>13972025
Dozle was a honest guy his whole life. Brain was the size of a peanut but he was probably the only guy in the Zabis that actually thought his family was doing their best for the people.

Garma just didn't give a fuck and viewed it as a playground and rank ladder.
>>
>>13972036
Nope. Give them free reign, and loot, and just point them in the general direction of the target and they will destroy it. No questions asked. And they have that predatory instinct. Go read up on a paramilitary unit called Arkan's Tigers. They were the baddest of the bad, career criminals, but they were the best fighting unit Serbia had in the '90ies.
>>
>>13972044
That's what killed him, too. He was too naive to see Kycilia and Gihren's scheming.

Addittionally, you could see Gundam in it's entirety as being about the wonders and goodness of the world being twisted by human evil.

The colonies, a symbol of humanity's new found dominance of space, and liberation from their confinement to earth, are abused and weaponized for colony drops.

Mobile construction workers, which allow for unprecedented industrial advancement, are abused and weaponized into genocidal war machines, the Gundam being the ultimate fulfillment of this twisted nature, it is the 'white devil' the ultimate representation of wonder technology put to use for the purposes of evil and destruction.

Zeon's idealism, the good and pure desire for liberty and equality, was twisted and weaponized into an aggressive and genocidal force.

newtypes, the ultimate achievement of human connection and spiritual existence are twisted and weaponised.

and later the even more perverted cyper newtypes, abusing and twisting human beings themselves into weapons (beyond the mere fact that they're all forced to be soldiers anyway)
>>
>>13971836
>>13972025

There was also that point at the begginning of X where the satellite cannon killed a bunch of people at once, which completely broke the newtype girl.
>>
>>13973002
maybe it gonna take them 20 episode to reach /m/
>>
>>13967150
In a weird way, yes, they can feel the "pressure" of a pilot's mind and soul, particularly that of another newtypes.
>>
>>13972118

>Can we overwhelm their feelings? Can we make a abloobloobloo-flashbang that sends out crippling "emotional waves" to overwhelm their senses?

That's part of how how Katejina lost to Usso. So theoretically you could do that.

You just have to somehow store and weaponize the essences of death and suffering or of protection and love depending on which flavour of newtype you're fighting.
>>
>>13971836
well amuro got pretty messed up when lalah died, and was in tears screaming about how everyone was melting into a white light when gihren used the solar ray, so that might be a possible out
>>
>>13974938

Having to commit war crimes just to temporarily neutralize one enemy ace is a bit overkill, don't you think? It's certainly not a practical option,

Eventually you run out of people to war crime.

>Having to commit war crimes just to temporarily neutralize Amuro is Ok.

>Can we overwhelm their feelings? Can we make a abloobloobloo-flashbang that sends out crippling "emotional waves" to overwhelm their senses?
That's what Angel Halo did. It fucked with Uso so badly that he started drifting in and out of reality during a battle and started daydreaming about spying on Shakti taking a shower with Karlmann in a river.
>>
>>13975014

Angel Halo was a newtype superweapon controlled by one of the most powerful newtypes in existence (and later by her daughter), a massive psycoframe superstructure which used tens of thousands of latent newtypes as batteries.

It was powerful enough to affect even non newtypes and could have feasibly been used to kill everything on Earth with sentience.
>>
>>13975024
It was designed to kill all of humanity still on Earth, that much isn't in question. The thing about it affecting newtypes like Uso is actually more of a bonus effect than anything else, because it wasn't specifically meant to be an anti-newtype weapon. While Uso is hallucinating and daydreaming in the middle of a battle, Odelo, Tomache, and the zanscare enemies aren't affected at all because they weren't sensitive enough to perceive the Angel Halo's mind-numbing/fucking effects at that distance.
>>
>>13975014
So what faction has the most deadliest, OPiest Superweapon ever /m/?
>>
>>13967111
>ctrl+f attrition
>no results found

A system is only as good as its weakest component, and, in the context of the question, the weakest component in a mobile suit is obviously the pilot himself. If you force him to fight at the highest levels of concentration for hours (example scenario: close quarters combat in an urban environment full of mines and IEDs), he will eventually make a mistake due to stress + fatigue and be defeated.
>>
>>13975361
>ctrl+f roberto bros
Go watch their fight against the Meijin. A combination of using decoys, IEDs, both long-range sniping and close quarters gun combat, even using yourself as bait so footsoldiers can place C4 on Meijins bot. They only lost because the plot demanded it
