Battle Action Harem Highschool Side Character Quest (No SV, you are the Waifu)

-[]Manifest Destiny (The West Coast is now under human control. With only the major breaches left and isolated, clear a path to the East Coast of the North American Continent.)
[x] Hold back. Allow the others to do most of the work, see if Sandra can put her money where her mouth is. You're still going to intervene if you see one of them in danger though.

I'd prefer a scenario without civilians present; I wouldn't find the fallout of Anna blaming a flightmate for (simulated) civilian deaths interesting. But trying to pick out one of the "difficult" scenarios from the "difficult+impossible" list is more of a pain than I'm willing to put up with; Uralsk Massacre seems like a plausible pick from those, but I don't think we've confirmation that it was the attack that historically destroyed the Uralsk breach, and it seems likely to be a mission with heavy casualties.

[X]Since there are two aces in the flight now, would you like Shuri and I to hold back further? Or should we stop for the next exercise and decide after that?

While I'm all in favor of actually showing our true colors, it's better that we let Sandra decide whether to let us off our leash or not. Nobody likes a gloryhog.

Also, put me down as another person who thinks running Vae Victus is moronic. There is no situation where that simulation will be a good idea, ever.

I didn't put in an argument because with so many choices it seems the pick of simulation is going to be nearly random, but I like Manifest Destiny. It's an optimistic scenario and it seems like it can be as hard as you want it to be based on how far east you push.

I think the trauma potential comes from the scenario pick more than the strategy pick. I mean, it's easy enough to spin a story where holding back leads to a breakdown. Holding back is a little against Anna's nature and it represents fighting the Antagonist with less than her full abilities. The battlefield is a fluid thing, and Anna would react badly if Setsuna/Kouji "died" from an attack from an enemy that she could have wiped out earlier if she hadn't been holding back...

Really though I think the chances of a breakdown are remote as long as we aren't insane with the scenario pick. It's just a question of whether we're going to be a good team player or a one woman killing machine. I'd rather start out as the one woman army and then develop into a team player later on.

Frankly I don't like any of the 'Survival' options because then the newbies might not, and Anna will flip her shit so hard the arcology lands upside down.

But when is it not? It's the biggest risk to our flight mates, aside from Shuri none of them even KNOW how nasty Type Zeros get.

A Type Zero scenario sim would be good for getting Kojirou to actually have solid sights on a goal rather than "try to beat Anna at her own game"

I actually want her to break down, fry the simulator so bad that the hardware has to be replaced and put every one in the hospital for a week. That would be a fun scene to read. :)

Gotta save something for the second week at the Academy.

I like this. Everyone voting for 'All you need is kill' should change to this option. You know Sandra's going to be like, 'Okay, unleash the fury', and it has the right Anna-ish tone instead of her just deciding to destroy everything of her own accord.

We already started out as the one woman army, complete with having to handle our own supplies and having no backup whatsoever. We are now learning to be a team player.

So the MC can take a hint after all... Yeah, this is definitely not the typical trash MC, I like Koujirou as a character up to this point, let's see just what kind of person he is before deciding he isn't "good enough for Anna" or anything.

Click to shrink...

I still stand by my "he isn't good enough for Anna" decision.

But then again, it's not that dislike Koujirou, it's just that no one can meet that standard :).

The hell is with Y1S4F1 anyway? They get two Ace fliers and that guy (Coke-Zero or something?)

Congrats Kouji, you're a diet coke now.

Also, because Anna's eating habit is being observed by a bunch of people, I have a proposition for a prank that she could pull.
Work down the List as usual, then one day, skip down the List according to the extrapolated figure of how fast she'll be going down the List. See people scrambling over their calendar.

Let our teammates get some experience, guys!

Seriously?

A difficult scenario is to hard for most of our squad's first simulation as a team; lets do a moderate and see how Sandra handles a leadership position before moving onto the harder missions.

Damn, I want to archive dive to see where we met them but phone isn't a suitable platform for that. :V
I only remember O'Conner and Blake because of their respective comments...

This. Regardless of how this combat sim is going to go, we'll probably be stepping up the training anyways, especially since Koujirou already stated on how much more he wants to train in comparison to before:

This is a training schedule that Koujirou and Setsuna would agree to do, a training schedule that Shuri-train-all-day planned, and yet people still think that they need MORE motivation at this time, WHY?!?!
Click to expand...

It's less about the newbies needing motivation for training and more that they need to understand what it is that they will be facing. They will be battling against a technologically advanced alien race who wants to kill them and they will need to be strong just to survive. Koujirou's antics in the sim yesterday shows that he does not yet understand this. And today he tried to learn a way to shape his impeller field to protect his weapon from Anna, showing that he's still worried about personal pride rather than surviving against the enemy and protecting humanity from their incursions. Granted, the impeller shaping is useful because it covers a weakness that an Antagonist might exploit, but Koujirou was thinking about Anna rather than the combat applications.

We've seen what Sandra's up to in our first sim run, which was a Moderate.

She's no more skilled a pilot than Setsuna, and Koujirou's only marginally worse; his shitty armament is going to be a bigger issue than his low skill.

We'd just crush a moderate simulation, though I suppose that might be what you want?

I meant as a team; their skill might have improved but they are still complete novices at working as a team.

Let them do one moderate simulation to get them working as a team then move onto the more difficult sims.
 
If we do a moderate, Shuri and Anna will have to do absolutely shit nothing. Which is fine, if that's what you want. But then they're not working with 1/3 of the team. That's the problem with such an unbalanced flight.

Focus on working as a team for one mission; we can do nothing but difficult sims after we see how they can work together as a team.

Working as a team is more important than being challenged by the sim.
 
The bit about the update that got me was Sandra and her handy supply of stored furniture. I almost burst out laughing on my lunch break, because it's just so absurd in contrast to the super-srs-face weapons and armour and combat support gear that gets toted around on a regular basis.

Meyer too. "Heard you were talking shit, cadet." The lady has style. :D

Don't get me wrong. I agree - a moderate mission is the smart choice from the perspective of the overall team. Shuri herself said she couldn't carry two newbies through a moderate mission. But either Ace could solo it, so it'll be pretty boring from our standpoint as Anna.

So the thing is... we only get an update every few weeks. No one wants to waste it on a moderate mission we blitzed through last time.

While i do agree..

Take a look at the other vote, it's almost impossible to get a moderate difficulty vote. Difficult is pretty much the most we can squeeze out of majority, the other option being Impossible.

Besides, setting what bar the other three can do first will allow us to at least gauge them.
