(Oh yeah, I went there...)

Since we have the Commander thread and the flagship thread, let us have the sidekick one now.

Who would be you sidekick? You know, C3PO had R2D2, Han Solo had Chewbacca, Batman has Robin and so forth.

Who would you pick as your flaship sidekick?

I would like to have Sancho Panza with me. Why? He'll keep me grounded.

"Don Quijote que no son gigantes, que son molinos!"

I would also pick RhynoD or Mad hatters in jeans as sidekicks too. Those 2 are hilarious.

Comments?

You. *nods*

You. *nods*

There's only one real choice:

My sidekick would have to be competent, not annoying, and definitely not a distraction. (Sorry Nanatsu, you would be a distraction. ;) )

I'd say my sidekick would have to be...

Stewie Griffin.

You. *nods*

BTW, it isn't sides I'm famous for kicking. :)

Who would you pick as your flaship sidekick?
Sidekick? or Second in command?

for MY sidekick, I'll take Sister Stephanie 'Steve' Oskowski (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096582/) a Nun who can boost a car, mix drinks with the best of the bartenders, gamble and other tricks she learned when 'before becoming a nun, [she] often bent a few laws."

for Second in Command... I would like to say Spoor Aron Sekpadao Letopanyu Peneju (Spaurh aronn Saicspath Nimh Laitpanr Painaigh) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characters_in_Crest_of_the_Stars). whom I would assign all the boring tasks of commanding the fleet during actual combat while the captain takes over the day to day routines... :p

Lunatic Goofballs. If he's not available, I'll take Col. Tigh, the angsty, one-eyed, alcoholic, libidinous Cylon and Bart Simpson.

I would pick me.

Because I'm fairly certain NSG isn't ready for two of me. Which would make it that much more fun.

Ok, for the anally inclined of he bunch:

Sidekick: Sancho Panza

Second in Command: Lunatic Goofballs

Samantha Carter, full of clever ideas, there is nothing she can't fix and she is not helpless in a fight either. Besides, even I can't handle her any worse than Jack O'Neill did.

Dr. Gonzo. We can't stop here, this is bat country!

i'd rather have the misc members of the A-Team all if it is possible. because they all have different strong points.

Hannible: makes master plans
Face: can con anyone out of anything and very loyal
Murdok: can fly anything and for comic relief
BA: can fix anything and is crazy strong.

Either Superman or Atom Bob as my sidekick.

And Second-in-Command would have to be Merlin or Captain Tyler. Or... someone else. Who knows. Battle on my Wayward son.

Isn´t it supposed to be ¨Carry on my Wayward son¨?

Isn´t it supposed to be ¨Carry on my Wayward son¨?

It is in fact. Yes. But the battleship I chose is called Wayward Son. It used to be called Rampage Incorporated. But that doesn't lend itself to any off couth amusement for me.

Ok...

Well.. LG was my commander (mainly for the witty one-liners that were sure to follow) so I suppose I should probably have someone there who actually knows things about commanding fleets and stuff...

Ok...

It's ok if you don't get me. It's just because I'm crazy and weird.

I shall have Rick Astley for a sidekick, and when we're hailed by the enemy, I'll put him on; and the enemy will die of embarrassment.

I'd pick a team, not just one:

the Cat (from Red Dwarf) as second in command
Sean Connery (in his Red October variant) as official speaker (coolness matters)
Ender as chief strategist
Han Solo... ehm... I meant Harrison Ford (in his K-19 variant) as chief tactician
Velka Morava as political officer (I know he'd want to, so it's better to second him from the beginning)

the goddess elxtia, a family of kitsuni, the ghost of a sentient mountain lion, and a couple of demented robots.

At one time or other, I have had each of these in my pants. Though admittedly not at the same time. :)

Sergei Fukov. :cool:

Myrth.

It's ok if you don't get me. It's just because I'm crazy and weird.

Oh, I know you're crazy... Weird? Nah, just crazy.

Captain Jack Sparrow of course :)

But I'll also take Iron Man (Toney Stark(Robert Downey Jr.)) and the Hulk (Bruce Banner(Edward Norton)) She-Hulk would be nice too, Ghostrider (Johnny Blaze(Nicholas Cage))and bike (can't have a rider without his ride) Darth Vader, Gandalf the White, V, Batman (Bruce Wayne(Christian Bale)) The Master-Chief, King Leonidas, Lady Death, Purgatori, Bad Kitty, Hancock(Will Smith) and anyone else that happens to strike my fancey or kicks butt :P

Sidekick- Darth Vader (in a Sith/Apprentice sense)

Second in Command- Char Aznable

Black Kat, you have chosen all main characters (excluding Darth Vader, Gandalf) as sidekicks!

Sergei Fukov. :cool:

yaaaaay:p

On second thought the Guide Mark II would be the ultimate sidekick if I can get a copy that isn't a Vogon double agent.
Captain Jack Sparrow of course :)
The greatest movie character of all can't be demoted to sidekick, you'd be the sidekick!

Not that there is anything wrong with that, it would still be tons of fun either way.

I'd pick a team, not just one:

the Cat (from Red Dwarf) as second in command
Sean Connery (in his Red October variant) as official speaker (coolness matters)
Ender as chief strategist
Han Solo... ehm... I meant Harrison Ford (in his K-19 variant) as chief tactician
Velka Morava as political officer (I know he'd want to, so it's better to second him from the beginning)

A) "What will it be today, sir?"
"Fish!"
"Yes, sir. The fish of the day is [something i can't remember]. Can I help you, sir?"
"Fish!"
"Yes, sir. The fish of the day is..."

B) Bean is a better choice. Ender is the better commander, though. If you're going to choose Ender, put yourself as his second.

C) Semantics, but Ender would be the better tactician than Han.

D) Han shot first!

Aww sweet i got mentioned in an OP, and by Nanatsu too.
ahem...anyway without further ado Dyakovo I choose you!

But seriously for a proper sidekick, LG would take it literally and it could be painful, funny but painful.
I think a good um, rear admiral? no that's full of innuendo, uh.
For a good secondary Admiral i'd go with Darth Vader, i mean at least he isn't some self righteous tit like Luke Skywalker, and at least his lines vary more than Chewbacca's "raaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrr!", and he has the dark side.


Okay i admit i think it would be hilarious to have Chewbacca as an admiral, but i'd find it difficult to discern between "rarrrr" and "Raaaaaawrrara!"

Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, aka "Radical Edward" from Cowboy Bebop. Computers are a huge part of space warfare, and I want the best hacker in the galaxy on my team. Plus, she's entertaining.

Jet Black is chief engineer. If he's not available, I'll take Montgomery Scott.

I'd pick a team, not just one:

the Cat (from Red Dwarf) as second in command
Sean Connery (in his Red October variant) as official speaker (coolness matters)
Ender as chief strategist
Han Solo... ehm... I meant Harrison Ford (in his K-19 variant) as chief tactician
Velka Morava as political officer (I know he'd want to, so it's better to second him from the beginning)

Ok, since you started it...
Peter Wiggins as second in command
Bean as chief strategist
Aarn Munro as Chief R&D
Chuck Norris for his side kicks
and....
...
...
...
...
Any 6 year old kid as failsafe (make it a couple... It's a dangerous world outside)

Oh... And i grieve to inform you that your Sean Connery (Red October variant) just had an accident. He slipped on some spilled tea and broke his neck... Tricky stuff that tea.

Aww sweet i got mentioned in an OP, and by Nanatsu too.
ahem...anyway without further ado Dyakovo I choose you!

PIKACHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!:D

PIKACHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!:D

lol@pokemon
They were freaky things, i found it funny how the first thing they do with other folks pokemons is to fight them, oh nono talking is for idiots, i mean it's not like the pokemon can do anything else is it?
I mean, they'd be fucked trying to learn foreign languages wouldn't they?
"okay pikachu, now say adios amigos"
"pikapikapika....chu"
"nnnnnooot quite, but getting there"
:p

ROFLMAO!!:D

Bernard Woolley. I need someone witty to joke around. God knows you could end up killing yourself after trying to hold even the simplest conversation with a lackey. Most Generalites would make a good substitute though.

Sergei Fukov. :cool:

Disabling an enemy gun with light beers is something to be remembered.

No problem. Got a team from ILM led by Carlo Rambaldi, and a couple of russians... who used to work ON Lenin.
Animatronics + special effects + mummification = ROBOT ZOMBIE CONNERY! (still looking cool).

God knows you could end up killing yourself after trying to hold even the simplest conversation with a lackey. Most Generalites would make a good substitute though.

On that subject, I wonder if having comrade Andaras as a second in command would kick or suck arse...

I would so love to have the robot dog-thingy from Furi Kuri as a sidekick. It would clean up all my messes by eating them.

Yes (Prime) Minister needs to be referenced more often.

Actually, I've just made a decision. This depends on whether I am recruiting a sidekick or second-in-command.

For a sidekick, I choose Lunatic Goofballs. But for second-in-command, there is no man I would rather have in the position than Commander William T. Riker.

Hk-47 :D

I'd want two sidekicks. One, a godless killing machine who knows neither mercy nor fear (like Brock Samson of The Venture Brothers or the Swiss brute in Pamela, that sort of fellow) who could manage all the heavy lifting/skull-crushing, and the other sidekick should be, a guileless, easily impressed moron (Richard Richard of Bottom, Adso of The Name of the Rose, Mr Betteredge of The Moonstone) who could follow me around all the time and make me look classier/sexier/smarter/all-round better in comparison.
Ideally, the killing machine would be kept in the trunk of my car or the back of closet until I actually needed him, so he doesn't get too much attention from other people when they should be adoring me. Or perhaps a Jekyll/Hyde thing could be arranged, with the dork turning into a killing machine whenever the occasion arose and then reverting back to his non-threatening form the moment I could safely resume center stage. The only problem with that is the potential that the duality could develop him as a character, or give him enough angst to make him interesting, which would subvert the entire purpose of his existing in the first place.

Chewbacca, or none.

Mr. Spock

Clank.

1. He's smart.
2. He's a combination jetpack/hydropack/helipack
3. He can go places a human-sized sidekick can't fit
4. He has a way with technology
5. Chicks dig him, and my chances improve the more of them there are around.

HK-47 from KotOR would be cool, though.

Is that Heidi Klum?

Yeah. It's an older picture, but it's her.

She´s so gorgeous. As sidekick she´ll do just fine, you´re right.:D

Is that Heidi Klum?

Yeah. It's an older picture, but it's her.

Let's face it: Han Solo was the sidekick :p .
