he saw the rail rounds fly at him and knew that the deflection barrier would do no good.
time for some acrobatics...
He pulled on the controls taking his suit into a barrel roll to its side and slightly forward, the attack missed him wizzing on by into space away from him. he made one 360 turn and thats it, taking less then a second to reface his oponent now above him he raised his gatling and unloaded while he boosted forward keeping the gun trained on Retal, his suit spun so that he could keep the gatling on Retal. He was now below and behind him

He was now below and behind him Which suited Retal just fine.Damn it, time for some suppression fire! Retal fired off his leg thrusters, then his hybrid boosters in sequence, the motion quickly pointing him down and hurling him forwards in that direction. As he went down, Sean's fire trailing a line above him, Retal opened up on the forearm gattlings again, spraying ammo in Sean's direction as he got ready for another boost should he need to...

Sean went into overdrive. His gatling moved targeting Retals fire and dispursing them mid flight while he Raised the VSBR up changing the velocity to a high consentrated shot and fired straight for his foes torso with such speed that the VSBR had it would be next to impossible to completly dodge

But Retal was still moving, and even if the beam traveled truely at the speed of light, it still would mean Retal would be in a different position by the time the beam was fired. So it was when Retal, still going down full-bore, watched as the beam passed directly between the Gundam's legs. Paint and armor melted away at the point of impact, but because it was a focused beam, the damage wasn't critical.
Son of a...
Retal boosted right for Sean again, this time full speed ahead, randomly juking every now and then to make him difficult to target while he watched the Rail guns charge to 80% capacity...
Come on, just a little closer...how the heck can he fire through his own beam redirection system anyway?

OOC: did i or did i not mention in the stats about how the systems turn off and on while shooting automatically? if not then i need to go add it cuz i thought it was there
IC:
The Targeting Visor fell over the Gundam's optics as Retal approached. The VSBR spread widen dramatically and he fired again, preventing Retals gentle strifing to mean much more then where the beam would hit. While doing this Sean moved his suit back matching Retals speed

Retal swore again and did the only thing he could. He brought himself ramrod straight and vetical, then sent up a wall of fire against Sean's VSBR, vulcans, gattlings, and even the Rail guns as he sent a mental commands to the remote weapons in his legs. Immediately, both beam spraypods raced out, guided by their control wire, and began spraying the area immedaitely surrounding Sean with beam fire...If I go down someone's going with me! Retal kicked in his hybrid boosters for a quick upwards boost in a vain attempt to get out of the way...

he laughed almost manically inside his cockpit as he watched the VSBR fire deminish more then half the fire Retal sent first, the rest knocked off course completly. His funnels left his suits back and imediatly fired at the remote weapons and the cables all while surrounding him protecting him from fire. He flew in only what he could guess was up looking at the damaged front of Retals suit from the VSBR fire, the shot having hit and tearing apart the armor of the suit as well disabling any frontward optics...Retal was blind in the front, but he figured it wouldn't matter to much...
Retal's remote weapons stopped fireing needing to recharge, which gave Sean the time he needed
Stay still this will be quick
The VSBR now on a hightly consentrated shot like before fallowed Retal's movments and fired as Retal still moved up, this time it would hit almost deffinetly, the shot aimed for just above the suits head, and would hit the neck or torso if retal kept his current path, but would hit just the head if he changed, in either case the shot would peirce directly through the suit and continue traveling through space on the other side

Retal flippped the hybrid boosters upwards at the same time as he activated the torso-mounted thrusters, catapulting himself backwards, just behind the beam Sean had fired. Then, in sequence, the hybrid boosters fired, hurling him down again as he opened up his gattlings and sent more ammo in Sean's direction.
His beam spraypods returned safely, as fin funnels couldn't both fire and generate shields at the same time. And even if they did continue to fire, the beam spraypods are small, quick-oving targets, too small and fast for even a funnel to tag.Knew those GP01FB style thrusters would come in handy...and as for you, die already!

Die? you haven't landed a shot...
funnels, the twelve of them suddenly stopped moving around him as he striffed to the left avoiding gatling fire. The funnels then scattered moving around Retal in surrounding each of his sides, far enough away from saber attack though, and as soona s they reached their target position they fired in on Retal

The funnels then scattered moving around Retal in surrounding each of his sides, far enough away from saber attack though, and as soona s they reached their target position they fired in on Retal Using a combination of torso thrusters and leg thrusters along with verniers, Retal juked in and out of the fin funnels, firing both the hybrid boosters in gattling mode and the forearm gattlings, destroying any fin funnels dumb enough to continue to fire on him, which was probably close to all of them.

OOC: with that move its nearly impossible to avade all of them...so i'm gonna call your hits..
IC:
The fin funnels served their purpose, the shots that landed where three, and they tore through his left leg, right arm and right hybrid booster rendering them useless...Retal however did manage to destroy all but two of his funnels.
Durring this time though sean was lining up a shot. The VSBR rifle positioned and ready aimed accuretly for the torso. He faced Retal's right side when he fired the VSBR at a wider spread then before...

OOC: with that move its nearly impossible to avade all of them...so i'm gonna call your hits.. Nearly, but still possible. Therefore, you cannot call the hits because my move is valid. Moving targets are very hard to hit. Especially with large numbers of funnels like that. Unless you specifically carpet bomb the area with beams, they are all firing on one specific point, meaning their fire can be avoided. But, just to be nice, and since I'm about to nail you for the mistake you just made, I'll accept the hits. They don't mean much against your MS anyway. Retal, however, was not letting such pathetic tricks work this time. Damage was mounting, but so far his Gundam's actual performance had not been affected, he just had to be a little more creative in his maneuvering. Upon his senses flaring that he was in danger, and with his foreward-facing boosters already deployed and active, Retal simply boosted straight back at as near to top speed as he could get. The wide-spread beam arced out, but because of the limitations of the barrel and how it projected a beam -and the fact that Retal was moving before the beam could actually fire-, as the beam expanded its edge it passed before him, due to his own backwards motion. Sean hadn't been far enough to catch him in the blast, and unlike last time, Sean hadn't been lucky enough to catch Retal unprepared and committed to moving directly in front of the blast.
Smirking as the beam raced by him close enough to peel off armor plating that had already been heavily damaged, Retal opened up his remaining gattling and fired in Sean's direction, targeting his VSBR, specifically, keeping an eye out for those fin funnels...

OOC: ...i could spend the time and tell you how it would be impossible to avoid ALL of them...but i'm less concerned with that...and more with what the hell you just did...what ever it was (Which i can only guess)...all your frontal equipment is nearly in operable aside from the arm gatlings...

OOC: I can see the point of view of both you Sean, and Retal.
Retal sees it as all the beams focusing on a single point and using out-dated info. While Sean sees it as the beams firing individually at the area surrounding Retal to make sure some hits land.
I think there may have been a lack of description though Sean, in that post saying the Funnels firing e.t.c. didn't say whether you were targetting one specific point or firing a barrage in the area where Retal is moving to or is.

OOC: I ment for a barrage...but theres no issue there...thanks for your point of veiw steel...
