@Drenius Gamera? The turtle kaiju?

What's the topic about now?

The relative values of the Swiss Franc and the Euro. What do you expect in the pony thread?

Sounds about right to me.

Not that I can contribute, I know very little about the EU.

@ keg

All that, and El Fuerte.

Yes, he's a Friend To All Children. I did have him as a Comically Serious Perpetual Frowner...but now I'm not so sure.

#217456 Drenius Thu, 7th Jun '12 6:20:10 PM from Northern Virginia

Yes, the turtle kaiju. I'm making a bad joke as Gamera is also, "friend to all children". At least after the first film.

Well there isn't that much to say since the Central Bank intervened to hold the Franc down. I beleive they pegged it at what, 1.2?

Random thought: Lyra as a Sith would be known as "Darth Harmonica".

@Drenius Sorry, I keep thinking someone MUST be talking about a different Gamera whenever that name is mentioned

What's he like in the first film?

Anyway, I was actually the only person talking about it. But everyone that's that I'm the only one who matters in setting topics of conversation.

Gamera sucks, all those little kids deserve to be eaten horribly.

Though on my part, I only saw the one with the fish alien shark thing. English dubbed.

Ginger: In the first film, he's mainly a destructive monster, kind of like if Godzilla were a turtle. He's mostly mindless in the first film and isn't retconned into a protector of earth until the later films.

Would some Earth pony soldiers have massive back mounted crossbows that fire logs?

I heard that all three of the 90's Gamera films were pretty awesome at least. No annoying kids in them from what I've heard.

He was like that in the second film too.

#217466 Drenius Thu, 7th Jun '12 6:25:53 PM from Northern Virginia

Earth Ponies utilising ballistas I can imagine. Unfortunately, I don't see them mounting them on their backs if only because of the force that they produce.

#217467 Kyler Thatch Thu, 7th Jun '12 6:26:21 PM from the corner of your eye

If it can chuck logs, it's probably outside the category of crossbows. A ballista, maybe.

Oh! Oh! They don't just fire logs, they fire logs that are on fire!

Don't feel too bad, I had to look it up myself. I just remembered there were things resembling huge crossbows, but that they weren't called crossbows.

#217472 Drenius Thu, 7th Jun '12 6:28:10 PM from Northern Virginia

True, but I just think it's a bit impractical to carry a siege weapon larger than yourself, even if you're strong enough.

Good to know they practice proper fire safety!

I actually prefer Godzilla, Mothra, and King Ghidora. That was balls to the walls insane with Godzilla turning out to be the manifestation of the war dead from WWII and King Ghidora is a guardian spirit of the Earth. Best of all, I believe it didn't have Minilla.

@Drenius would it be impractical? If they can carry them around without much trouble, then they're much more transportable than normal ballistas.

an I figured that the weapon wouldn't be larger than the pony, it'd be about the size of his back (but wider) and fire small logs or large sharpened stakes
