Considering they've been properly trained to pilot each machine, what would be more dangerous: a Newtype in an X-Wing or a Jedi in a Gundam?
I'm gonna have to give this one to Jedi in a Gundam, and the magnitude of that victory depends on how many beam sabers it has.
Seriously just slap like fuckin Obi-Wan in Exia and bam it's fuckin done, game over.
>>14355101
Quattro's face always kills me in that picture.
>>14355101
If the Gundam has any kind of psycommu, the newtype is beyond fucked.
Newtype in X-Wing: amazing reflexes and quasi-precognition in a space fighter capable of light-speed flight, incredibly maneuverable and firing lazors everywhere; able to fuck with Tie pilots minds and probably UNDERSTANDING with the Sith
Jedi in Gundam: use the fucking Force to move the damn thing, beam sabers are suddenly the deadliest weapon ever, deflecting beam rifle shots and all the jazz; able to fuck with Zeon pilots minds and probably KILL THE FUCK of all of them
That's a close call actually
>>14355101
The newtype will probably figure out some new asspull superpower to win the day.
>>14355101
>Jedi in a Gundam
If a psycommu enhances the force then my god that is horrifying. They are in space therefor always have the high ground.
>>14355165
>use the fucking Force to move the damn thing
Didn't Yoda struggle with a pillar in Attack of the Clones?
Whoever spins
wins.
>>14355198
Force powers seem to require active focus to use, which is why suddenly attacking a sith who is force choking someone tends to cause them to drop the victim.
Newtype abilities are entirely passive.
>>14355259
My point, which your post doesn't seem to address at all, is that if the strongest user of Force powers struggles with moving a pillar, how is "using the Force to move the Gundam" a viable tactic.
>>14355268
the "seeming to struggle" part was likely dramatic effect. Also using the force to move a Gundam seems like a waste of time and effort anyways if your inside it and nothing is wrong, the effort is better spent fucking up the shots of the X-Wing's proton torpedos
>>14355249
That's a good trick!
>>14355290
>Also using the force to move a Gundam seems like a waste of time and effort
The Force would be a good emergency AMBACS in a vacuum, actually.

There's this.
>>14355369
But also this.
>>14355374
how did this not achieve the same level of meme as spinzaku?
>>14355377
Because the internet didn't exist in 1995.
I mean, it did, but imageboards like 4chan didn't. And it would take people like five hours to download that gif anyway.
>>14355394
You just make it 300x300, lower color quality and hope that everyone remembers the scene from when they watched it.
>>14355198
Force is weak in the movies, but crazy powerful in the extended universe.
>>14355394
yeah 1.7 megs would be at least one, maybe two snes roms
>>14355414
But extended universe stuff was removed.
>>14355165
>>14355101
This is literally a main plot point in my star wars d20 campaign
>>14355414
Its EXPANDED universe, not extended you mook.
>>14355432
They've been tapping EU for the last two years in the reboot canon. You have Sidious in Lords of the Sith novel (which is equal canon to the films) throwing starships like leafs in a storm while he's fucking around and Vader TKing starfighters and deflecting warship shots back at their sources.

A Jedi would be worthless in a mech. They're only good in samurai duels.

Force grants anything from Force Lightning to Force Pull/Push in addition to telepathic attributes.
The Newtype is beyond fucked. Gundams are way overpowered and presumably a Jedi would have some ability to interface with a psycommu or worst comes to worse just use some force abilities.
Unless the Newtype is as strong as Four or Kamille and can work past their disadvantage and abuse precog/spatial awareness.
>Gundam
>more powerful than X-Wing
You guys are really underestimating those things. A single proton torpedo can obliterate most MS. Also shields and fucking lightspeed
Since newtype seems to be reading the opponent's intent as much as legit "this is the future as it will happen" I wonder how the Jedi ripoff mind-of-no-mind would affect that.
>>14356142
>light speed

>>14356142
Aren't photon torpedo like the strongest MS weapon in the entirety of the Universal Century? I mean, it's been officially stated by Tomino that the G Self is the strongest Gundam ever and it's likely because of them since one hit and you're gone due to the anti-matter.
So, wouldn't that make every fucking X Wing it's own equivalent to the G Self Perfect Pack? Yeah, Gundams are fucked.
>>14359531
>>14356142
Wait, nevermind. I misread. I thought I saw PHOTON torpedos. Completely different kind of torpedos. No weaponized anti-matter bullshit.
>>14356086
And nearly every mech comes with its own built-in lightsaber. And Jedi were extremely efficient in their interceptors during the Clone Wars.
>>14359547
such shit exists
>>14359555
As a outlier. Even Jedi younglings without using their sight can block or deflect training blaster bolts.
>>14359555
fucking bullshit.
CE beamsabers can't deflect or clash with anything. fucking seed going against it's own in-universe tech
>>14359591
>younglings
>>14359637
Don't question Jesus Yamato's bullshit
>>14359555
Don't CE beam sabers have half of the regular sword to guide the beam? What happened here?
>>14356142
Depending on the Gundam, wouldn't Minovsky particles render the torpedoes useless?
>>14360093
Only the targeting computers. The torpedos themselves pack quite a punch.
Remember, Luke blindfired a Photon Torpedo into the Death Star's yaoi hole and hit it dead on. So there's no reason a Newtype couldn't space acid trip his way to blindfiring a torpedo right at a Gendumb's cock holster.
>>14355369

Starkiller pulled a Star Destroyer out of the sky and crashed it into a planet with the force. Yoda can choke on his pillars.

And I'm guessing everything you "pick and choose" will be from Legends.

I dunno, Disney Vader seems to be even more Badass than old canon Vader to me
