Mayans and Crazy Weapons

And while I love discussing Mayans and crazy weapons, this was meant to be a serious thread :p


Well, the discussion on the WWIII thread was getting a bit derailed, so I figured we should start a seperate thread for this. TPF gave me the name.

What this thread is about should be clear.

I must say, I'm partial to the Glitter Boy armor from Rifts and the Sun Crusher from the Star Wars books.

Shark Repellent, from the campy batman series.

I like Deathscythe from the Gundam Wing series.

The Original model or Deathsythe Hell?...Or perhaps the Endless Waltz Upgrade? I typically dont like Anime, but I'm a Gundam nerd.

You should've included Dune2's classic Sonic Tank :D

I believe it's the Endless Waltz one I like most. That's the one with the big bat wings, right?

Man, I haven't watched Gundam Wing in ages...

I was just indulging in geeky know-it-all 'ism. I honestly couldn't tell you the difference between the two versions of Deathsythe. H. though I can tell either of them from the original deathsythe.

Yup, the EW version has bat wings.

I used to be a big fan of the SNES game Gundam Wing: Endless Duel, back in the day.

To Gundam fans in this thread:

Deathscythe and all the other 'Wing mobile suits suck compared to this guy.

Yeah? Well the next 1000 Leo's right behind him will eventually get Deathscythe. Thier Dobergun's pack a decent punch yah know. They even shot Wing Gundam out of the sky once.

Go Leo's!

Mass-produced, weak but virtually unlimited Mecha are the best superweapons.

Who want to be redeemed?

What makes it especially cool is if you look closely it has "Swallow This" written on it.

For brutal effectiveness, nothing will beat the awesome power of the Gatling Gun and its descendents (all automatic weapons).

Included in this is the Lancer Assault Rifle (http://gearsofwar.wikia.com/wiki/Image:LancerAssaultRifle.jpg), perhaps the most awesome projectile weapon ever. Why? It has a friggin CHAINSAW!

Another awesome weapon is the Gjallahorn (http://www.eve-online.com/itemdatabase/EN/shipequipment/turretsbays/doomsdaydevices/23674.asp) doomsday device from EVE Online. Here it is in action (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNu7vmSNHWU).

Finally, there is the shotgun. No explanation needed here.

war threads deserve to get derailed.

tecnologies with which to live and let live without screwing anyone or anything are what is an infinite order of magnatude more interesting.

I like the Glitter Boy, except for its mobility problems (anchoring into the ground before it fires, 60 mph, no flight). If I had a choice, I'd probably choose an NGR Dragonwing over a Glitter Boy.

And how come there's no SDF-1 option?

No screw attack? That thing can kill almost all living stings in a single strike. Then, there's the ice beam. for some reason, its victims float motionlessly in the air until thawed or destroyed. I <3 Metroid.

Where did Death Star get so many votes all of a sudden? I mean, come on, how much effort did it take to destroy it? Jesus, I coud toss a stick in the exhaust pipe and *boom*.

...Unless it's the second one. Even then, it seems terribly inefficient.

The keyboard is mightier then the pen. which is mightier then the sword. which is mightier then the sledgehammer. Which is mightier then the pencil. Which is mightier then primitive cave paint.
