Armored Core Lore: The Type Lancel 

With a pair of Motorcobra and vertical missile pods you can go toe to toe with some of the nastiest Nexts in the game.

Nine-ball! What the top ranked arena AC doin here

You could also say that it was thanks to omer employing some of rayleonard ex designers and engineers.

Probably because Omer Science absorbed a lot of Rayleonard's assets and personnel.

While the Lahire was clearly inspired by the Aaliyah, I think Rosenthal made the Lancel a lighter Next design because they saw that the Hogire's bulk didn't really help. Next combat doctrine and technology also evolved to the point where high speed and perma flight became commonplace by the time of the Economic War. The Lancel had to be able to keep up with the lighter, airborne capable Nexts such as Lahire, Latona, Ekhazar, etc.

I am glad to read you enjoyed using the lancel. To me as i said it just felt too much like the type Hogire seeing as the insides are just hogire parts.

@@armoredcorelore yeah I can understand that, that's probably why I liked it, since I enjoyed the hogire frame it just felt very natural to use the Lancel (though I tended to swap out the assault armour for a standard overboost as assault armour never fit well with my playstyle). Though with some gen, booster swapouts, this frame becomes a very nice aerial unit

I really wish so too. What would you say Strayed picked canonically?

@@andrewrogers3067 Independant i would say. but really up for debate, since some Acs can determine the endings or connections. like being Independent given that its from rayleonard would lead you to the ORCA path. Interior union given that Kasumi had ties with them in her previous years. and could potentially lead you to the League path Lancel, given that its from OMER science technology could potentially lead you to the destruction path. and GA america would probably be your most notable client. (as they seem to have the highest count of missions for strayed by 8. second to that are the league by 7.)

@@HeyPachuco I’ll add my two cents when I have some charge In my phone

@@HeyPachuco I don’t believe Interiors connection with Kasumi matters because it’s clear throughout the missions that Kasumi hates them, especially the VOB breakdown. Omer actually explains why the League hires Strayed to fight White Glint halfway through. I lean towards either independent or Omer.

​@@andrewrogers3067 Her remark on that mission was mostly out of frustration rather than pure resentment, as her standing with Interior union has been notably neutral at best, likely because its not so so much shes on good terms with Interior union, but with its old pre-merged predecessor Leonemeccanica. Thus she believes that the company like most others don't nessasarly prioritize on keeping their independant mercenaries alive, given that strayed isn't affiliated with any company. so she has a few expectations that Strayed will be experiencing alot of shady activity from his clients, or try to get him killed as a way to avoid paying somone who doesn't represent their company, if otherwise, wipe out a potential threat. Like i said this can always be under debate, but Fromsoft has always been either vague, or at least able to tell their consumers, that Armored core endings, or even any endings in general try not pass over a next generation. even in the Q&A after the final DLC releases of Verdict day they said that Armored core for answer endings, don't impact the sequels of Armored core. Quote: "Armored Core V is not a sequel to previous Armored Core series games, but the game features a linear storyline, similar to the earlier games in the series. Players are free to play the missions in any order they like, although this will not change the story’s ending." but as a regular player, its still immersive to at least beileve for one second that perhaps in your own perspective, the for answer endings could either result how 5 Happened. since we see white glints reincarnation, motherwills resurrection, and the "towers" that look an awful lot like the cradles. probably as an act of a placeholder.

That's pretty much the Lancel, solid all rounder.

@@armoredcorelore it's funny I never started with lancelot. I always went independent to grab aaliyah parts

Well that's cool. Thank you.

Neat. I think i have already said, but i went with the Sunshine for my first playthrough.

@@armoredcorelore It's tankier but not as adaptable. I understand your choice however, due to it unlocking some heavy firepower as you progress.

@Siberian Agreed.

Ready as always. I just hope that AC6 is ready.

Always ready for some new AC Lore.

*Don't do that, Don't give me hope :(*

@@TerkoizRHG The last thing a Raven loses is hope.

Ha ha well i better do her justice then.

@@armoredcorelore considering your previous work, I have no doubts that you will

Already on the list to do.

Crossing fingers.

I think i like the older brother better.

and Celebrity Ash too.

In your opinion

In my opinion no. I believe they all have thier own timeline. However i have been asked to think about a theory video about how they would all link so i will have think about it.

I'll be honest no. As i think the problem with jumping on something brand new is there is a large gap for errors and mistakes. Yes it would be great for the view count, but I'd like time to enjoy the game and really dive into it to make sure I've got the facts.

@@armoredcorelore Oh. that's smart.

Sorry to say no as the Type-Lancel frame was the upgrade of the Type-Hogire frame from ac4.

@@armoredcorelore So the buck stops here huh? What about the Hogires predecessor? Is there one?

@@MasterSwo Again sadly no, Rosenthal made only these two next models in thier time line with the Hogire being thier first next model after kojima particles could be used. At a stretch and this is a stretch, there is a page in the armored core 4 designs for answer 156 on Rosenthal building a normal who you could suggest is the predecessor to the Hogire. I will leave the all the pages on Rosenthal on my reddit page if you want to take a look. www.reddit.com/user/Nicksgamebox18/comments/10il5el/rosenthal_pages/

To be fair there are some very good choices for a new lynx.

@@armoredcorelore Yeah, but the weird thing is i love Type Hogire Imao

@@TerkoizRHG Ha ha. Well you know i think I'd have to say i think that is what makes AC interesting to me. The love and personal connections lynx have with a next frame.

Its the blue colour isnt it ?

@@Errorcutive Hmm idk about that cuz i actually love colour Blue, maybe the Next shape or something

All of his videos are from 4th gen AC. If he branches out to other games though he probably should label them.

All done. Where the next comes from can now be found in the description on all videos like this one.

I can imagine that humanity prior to the DAoT had Mechs that basically combined aspects of BattleTech, Gundam, Macross, and Armored Core.

Too much lore there. even for me to handle.

Well i hope it is all going well.
