Even though I'm the author, and I have a certain amount of interest in
SkyKnight's health, Ben's analysis is the closest to the truth. :)
Wait a sec, Didn't Skyknight do most of the work on his own suit? From what I
can draw, it is by far more physically powerful than Sylia's suit. It is
loaded wit firepower as well. If he takes two seconds to think about using a
ranged weapon Sylia may well be screwed, I believe at this point the character
of Skyknight is not considered something added to BGC (but a part of it) and
isn't bound by the restriction of 'the originals will always win'
However, Sylia also possesses a very good degree of combat skill, as I've
had pointed out to me by Hitomi. After all, she designed the suits, the
combat testing programs, and the suit programs that allow them to be used in
combat. In addition, she likely had to train everyone how to fight in a
hardsuit in the beginning.
>From what I have seen, Sylia may have this skill, but her only real punch is
either from her autocannons, or her armblades. Both of which are almost
certain kills when used. If Skyknight loses, he will most likely be nearly
dead at the end of the battle unless he snaps out of the rage thing.
And even though we never see her get 'up close and personal' in a brawl
throughout the OVAs (Okay, except maybe for 'Scoop Chase', when she's in the
ADP building with Miriam's boomer), I would be willing to bet that her
hand-to-hand skills are first-class. I think she could quite easily take out
any of the other KS if she had to, although Linna would be a challenge IMO.
Priss and Nene, yeah, they don't have the technique to fight Sylia. Linna
wouldn't ever have to as far as I can see (not in current BGZONE, anyway) and
IM not sure about Knight. From personal experience, I've noticed that people
are far more dangerous when they are in a blind rage, but they are much safer
when calm and under control, so it might balance out somewhere.
Finally, Sylia has designed all the suits. No one, and I mean NO ONE, not
even SkyKnight, knows the design limitations, performance specs, and
weaknesses of the systems and designs better than she does.
All that being said, I'm still not going to tell you what happens. -_^
No doubt something that isn't expected. Thats what I like about BGZONE now
that you finally got past the documented BGC universe, you get to do your
origional stuff and your talent shows more. I think I'll sit back and relax
for a while, while you sit down and write the rest of this fic...
