((no

no it really isn't))

((no

no it really isn't))

((So training people heading into a battlefield to wield weapons, even if they ARE fighting mechs, is stupid? ))

[smurfingtonthethird]

((it's like comparing fighting in a video game to fighting in real life; sure, some of the techniques might apply, but it's really not the same.))

[kj1225]

((And if they get attacked outside of the suits they can just die? Not following your logic.))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((Well, it serves a dual purpose: if they ever get in a situation where they need to fight aliens 1v1 with no mechsuits, they're ready, and it keeps them fit for mech piloting, which is exhausting.))

[smurfingtonthethird]

((if they get attacked outside the suits they're fucked

like, seriously, try that shit and you'll be smeared all over the ground in under a turn.))

((Aaaand what if the pilots and the aliens get caught without mechsuits?))

[smurfingtonthethird]

((Um, dead. Aliens have [REDACTED], so yeah, you're fucked if you try and fight them close quarters. Mainly because they'll use a gun.))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((And what about the 'keep them fit' thing? Keep in mind that martial arts also aids self-discipline and other things that gym training doesn't necessarily do?))

[smurfingtonthethird]

((Right, because they have a dojo for every martial art on station

I don't care anymore, just no training weapons.))

((*sulks because stupid fiat* >:|))
Fine, since smurf is boring, Ao just punches the fuck out of a boxing bag.

[smurfingtonthethird]

((and thats for the moka plushie, you asshole!))

[IamanElfCollaborator]

((*slaps*
how dare you
that was a gift
baka))

[OREOSOME]

Satisfied, Kara shouldered her suit's weapon, and then promptly looked to see what it could do to salvage some of the Hydra, if anything.

After going through the proper shut-down proceedures and similar things for the ASR-066, Luzia disembarks and goes searching for the proper person to ask about altnerative weapons for her mech.
