Quote:Look under Full Metal Step to see what the Arbalest's capabilities are as detailed in the novel...you might also see it in the new FMP anime series.
For my money, a Lambda Driver is nothing more or less than a purely mechanical AT Field generator. Late generation ASes like Arbalest actually seem to be -stronger- and -faster- relative to their own bulk and mass than humans are. With an LD to counter his songs, that basically means that Doug is trying to fight something which is just as strong, fast, and agile as he is... and better than two orders of magnitude larger.
