Re: Light armor Wave 6? - Eagle and Mountain Cat

Oooh! The preview images for Rapitas and Artille look nice, and I'm liking the fact she can have both gun mounts occupied, gives a sense of balance (I'm guessing the handheld part of the gun would still look like a gun without the giant barrel parts, so that makes three guns). Still trying to figure out if that is supposed to be her tail hanging off of her back (it's next to the right leg in the BM download pic) or not, though.

Although I am starting to see how Artille and Rapitas could be light armors, since Full Armor sets have been on a trend of looking more different than alike in designs while Light Armor waves are looking more like two different versions of the same armor parts (Pomock and Partio's "armor sets" are almost perfect copies, only difference outside of colors being the forearm weapons being different). Artille and Rapitas seem to fall into the latter, as most of their armor look the same with all the "X" lines all over the place while the other wave pairing clearly do not share the same armor construction. All I know is that Artille is still going to be my next Shinki.

...Come again? I have no idea what the heck you just asked. I'm guessing you asked what is the best weapon that either Mary Celes (Tentacles) or Proxima (Centaur) can use, but that question probably should go in the proper thread for those two. I was just saying why I thought they were Light Armors and not Artille or Rapitas. To my knowledge, the only weapon Mary Celes has even been seen with is a small blade thus far.

:rolleyes: Somehow, I doubt that's the first thing that pops up when most people see those two letters. So no, I'm not going to change a simple acronym just because someone MIGHT get confused, especially when it's more then likely they're going to see "Battle Masters' written down somewhere.

on top of that BR is the commonly used abbreviation for Brazil, and well, I've yet to see anyone get confused about that.

Want to see higher resolution artworks of them both :3

If these have a current release date slated for December, we can hope to see the preorder up, hopefully, after Razz and Sharatang? I can't remember if we've covered this in the thread (my internet is being terribly crotchety this morning), but this is a tall/small pairing, isn't it? Antilles being small and Raptias being tall?

Hmm. From what I can remember, we usually get the preorders about 3 months before release, with releases spaced about 3 months apart. And yeah, it looks like we're getting one tall, one short this go around too.
