After that shot we took from the Dominion I don't know if we could've taken it on... I'm glad you were there to help out with it.

It would be unacceptable if I was unable to prove pilot Ahtrun's assertion wrong.

There's a reason people build more than battleships I guess.

They should be designed with better defenses and protection - Like the Kusanagi and the Archangel-class.

Cagalli's been going over these things enough by now. allnaturalseed November 21 2009, 16:27:57 UTC
The Nazca class isn't really made to stay and fight. I don't know why it only had two mobile suits, and waited instead of pulling out - it's one of the fastest battleships around.

An incompetent commander.

Not like I did much better though. I shouldn't have tried to pit an Izumo up against one of its big sisters...

Your vessel had higher quality escorts, and the outcome of the battle spoke clearly of which commander was better.

Our pilots were safe, sure, but that single shot killed some of the crew...

Casualties are inevitable in combat.

I just... I keep going over it in my head, wondering if I could have saved more of them. I really was ready for this when I went out there, but it still hurts.

Lamia totally rocks at consoling people. code_ata November 22 2009, 06:46:16 UTC
It is supposedly a common guilt response to many officers who has casualties during their first few commands.

Don't worry, Kira's angst should distract her for a bit now. allnaturalseed November 22 2009, 06:48:56 UTC
I guess they all get used to it... I think that's pretty sad.

Psychological reports indicate that they simply accept that their fellow soldiers put on the uniform knowing the risks.

However, my understanding of the subject is that it is best to never be completely rid of the guilty feeling.

That's... kind of reassuring.

Thanks.

I simply speak from my analysis of available data.
