Something else to consider here guys. Right now Verge is technically a draftee, not a mercenary. So it's not so much we're "here to do a job" as "our squad is on a mission". We likely won't get the chance to strike out on our own again until after we evolve; so until then knowing how the Host is supposed to work will really go a long way to helping us anticipate the type of orders we can expect going forward. I'm also a bit leery about this whole thing with SlashAngemon not being a great thinker, and how that could impact our Squad's operations. If he's the hyper-zealous type, then a good half of our squad is in for a bad time due to their viral nature, and Verge especially for being a mutant. I think that Pit may find his own faith being tested as he encounters more high-ranking individuals within the Host.

You're making an assumption. Especially since Pidmon was a Gloaming POW. Aside form his hate of Devidramon as a species, I find it unlikely that he'd casually murder anyone who surrendered out of hand.

[X] Support Pidmon. Surely what Pegasmon wants to say won't be too long? Learning about The Host would be interesting. Then there's what he called Astamon. The Scion...
no.

This seems good to know.
Interesting update. It's strange that Pegasusmon had such a high rank if he's just a champion. I mean, the Digimental of Miracles does make ridiculous god-tier champions, but still...
And yeah, I hardly think this little war is going to be as simple as Pidmon and Pegasusmon think. The Gloaming very clearly has something crazy in the works, while the Host is simply attempting to grind down the Gloaming through superior numbers.
Edit:
I also like Pegasusmon going "Oh, SlashAngemon? He's just a dumb jock. One can short of a six pack if you get what I mean. Astamon's a way better general than him." It's like a priest casually roasting a cardinal on his downtime.

Pegasusmon is from Hope, not Miracles.
Regardless though, we have been told previously that it's possible for a Champion to digivolve into an Armor without the use of a Digimental (Drimogemon -> Digmon), so I can easily imagine how that would be possible.
Think what kind of stats you get if a strong Angemon digivolves into a Pegasusmon instead of something like MagnaAngemon.
We also don't know if he uses the same downgrade trick as Scratch.
no.

I believe drexal said that armor mon tend to be weaker than ultimates with the exception of those using Miracles, even ones that evolved from champions. So this guy is presumably a top-tier champion, able to take on weak ultimates close to evenly.
But yeah, I'm guessing either he's secretly devolved like Scratch or he used to be an ultimate, got devolved from an injury and later used a Digimental, which made him unable to reach ultimate again.

"tend to" means that there are exceptions. Ones using Miracles are exempt from the trend, but its not impossible for a different Armor to be powerful.

Hope is one of the more powerful crests, so the Digiarmor is likely a big boost as well, yes. And it does seem probable that Pegasmon used to be an Ultimate and got injured and devolved. Especially given this comment.
Thrones are apparently the equivalent to Captains in the Navy or Colonels in the Army, that oversee the command of entire ships or bases; and are the ones that approve promotions as well. So it stands to reason that they would probably weigh in around the Ultimate range.
Its also theoretically possible that a Digimon can obtain a rank higher than would be expected of their combat ability because their strengths lie in other areas. Like someone who isn't particularly strong, but is really freaking good at tactics and logistics.

Oh guys, something I was reminded of recently in regards to digivolution lines. Some of the lines may have been sligthly fudged (aka, Kokabuterimon becoming Blitzmon) and the fact that a mon is a LW or their pre-evolution doesn't always mean that they are the Legendary Warrior in question.

Okay things are very close so far. 7-6 for staying.
A lot of it depends when and how they get their digimental. A champion hitting his limits getting one will be powerful and have more potential than a rookie gaining one.

So tired.....
Also Megas are like Hyper Super Ultra Mega Rare
Huh I wonder if we'll see the Overwrite ability of ancient digimon. Boosts of immense power in exchange of a shortened life and taxing to the body

What can I say we've just been told how important this mission is... and well a part of me hopes that if we swing things far enough early enough we'll get a chance as rescuing the others.

It's not just ancient Digimon that can do it.
UlforceVeedramon has access to a special Overwrite too, the result of combining a regular Overwrite with hax regen that negates its side effects. Future Mode makes the Overwrite even more ridiculous.
no.

iirc that was retconned to an Ulforce-only thing.

I think you're also over-thinking how much of an impact us not being exactly on time will have. Again, intel is king, and having this intel will help inform our decision making down the line.

So tired.....
No it wasnt
Ulforce has HOLY Overwrite which stacks Wolverine Regen with a top natch Overwrite
Normal Overwrite cripples or kills the mon from sheer stress
Also this is a young digital world so weirder than canon shit can be expected cuz the fundations aint solid

Normal Overwrite is basically the super charged version of one of Gramps's tricks.
I'd much rather error on the side of caution when it comes to a military operation like this, even it comes at an opportunity cost this time around.
To be honest at this point I can see either effect having massive butterflies (Us being late and delying everything in a bad way/Us lacking Intel we actually need at a later point) but also can see the story not being that important or our time arriving at the meeting not being important so I'm going with the option I personally prefer.

That's fair. I don't particularly agree, but that's a fair assessment.
