Lacking the fusion reactor power source of later HK-Aerial models, the drone had no plasma phase weaponry. To it, anything warm and moving is a target.Īrmed with conventional arms (machine guns) and low-yield missiles. It has difficulty discerning a non-living object from a living one. For instance: an Hunter-Killer Aerial Weapons Platform which has fired a missile will then chase the debris of the explosion it created as a living target. Its inferior sensory array did not complement this lack of brains. Its artificial intelligence and decision-making abilities, while fast, were limited to insect-like reasoning. You'll just have to wait for it, I suppose.The Hunter-Killer Aerial Weapons Platform had the least sophisticated CPU of all Non-Humanoid Hunter Killer units. It won't be so much the fight against Araya, but what will happen soon afterwards that's going to change the game entirely. If I can give you one teeny-tiny spoiler, it would would be this: Team PARIAH will "win" in that he got his awesome story and whatever shenanigans he wanted to pull he'll get to, but.Hmm, actually, I think PARIAH is the best off.You have some good guesses, but - fortunately for me - they're all wrong. Team PARIAH will "win" in that he got his awesome story and whatever shenanigans he wanted to pull he'll get to, but.Hmm, actually, I think PARIAH is the best off. Team Flammenwerfer will get to pull out all the stops, but they'll probably die too, though one might survive. The Japanese will both be better and worst off than BLACKWATCH better because they probably won't sink as much resources into this struggle, but worse in that they can't just say "Fuck it" and withdraw like BLACKWATCH. It remains to be seen whether they'll leave the same parting gift they did last time, but who knows. Most likely Azaka was just the start in a new litany of losses, so Team KNK can hardly call this a victory.īLACKWATCH will almost certainly do a shitload of damage before eventually being forced to call it quits after their losses continue to rise with no end to this madness in sight. The fact that he has a practical chorus of people in there too hardly helps. Lio "Wins" in that he survives, but is left perpetually on the run and becomes even more erratic and unstable as his Origin and an increasingly more developed form of BLACKLIGHT war for dominance in both his body and mind. I'm so confused about this Lio thing, but here's how I think it will end SYMBOLISSSMMMMMMMMMMMIt may have been mentioned already, and I apologize if I forgot, but is he/how is he able to consume people now that he's made of ash and not biomass? Is it related to BLACKLIGHT'S (or whatever it really is) supernatural aspects? He has the ability to taste sweet things he just doesn't realise it yet. For various reasons his taste deficiency is now correctible he just needs to bother to actually correct it, and until he does he'll be stuck with a cat's tongue. Or can he? Remember that he hasn't actually eaten anything since he was in the cafe earlier today, and he hadn't been incinerated yet then. As he claims, he can't taste sweet things due to being a catboy Origin-related shenanigans. I had A Stranger I Remain playing basically non-stop while writing the Fujino fight. Love that 's pretty much taken over my imagination with regard to planning future fight scenes. I'm on a massive MGR:R kick at the moment. It's basically going to be the theme for the Araya boss fight. Obviously, the best song for Lio is Rules of Nature.
