Good point, I'm still not sure what to do on unofficial technology being registered for Holodeck use.

Ugh! Corey tenses as the gundam notices Ghost and wields its beam saber. Before flying into the glowing beam blade, he quickly grasps the dagger handle with his left hand from Ghost's hip and holds it out defensively as the two mechs clash together.OOC: Um..your Daggers according to the specs of your suit are located in the forearms.... IC: Steel boosts backwards out of the range of the dagger, while firing a short burst from his vulcans at Corey.

OOC: Sorry -.- Corey has not had much of the wonderful sleep lately. And thus is not thinking at his best.
IC: Corey still charges, boosting towards the bulky gundam, preparing to strike with the beam dagger. He winces as the hot vulcan bullets shred Ghost's cloak and graze the MS's armor, but it doesn't slow him any.

OOC: My own personal ascertation is that once unofficial tech comes in, the official physics don't matter as much. If you're gonna whine about it, just don't fight people who use 'unofficial' technology.

At times, I feel that I must battle them to prove that the 'other' technology isn't worth the hassel.

Isn't worth the hassel? You think beating me makes it obsolete or something? Go on like this much more and I'm gonna feel insulted. But whatever. Corey grits his teeth as the long beam saber connects with his short glowing dagger. In an instance, he slides the dagger horizontally across the dagger, freeing it, and quickly lunges forward thrusting the dagger out at the Gundam's torso, and boosting towards his target.

Heat Dagger=Saber can slice through.

Not necessarily Steel. Heat weapons have blocked Beam Sabers before.

Exactly, even with a heat weapon, it's still energy making contact with energy, the beam never touches the weapon itself.

But, with a swing, such to slice through a suit, it WILL slice through. Even though a heat weapon has blocked a beam saber before, that doesn't mean if pressure is applied it won't go through. Otherwise, what is the point of having Beam Sabers over heat weapons? :p
EDIT: Plus, the beam saber produces much more heat than a normal heat weapon such as the Heat Hawk. Beam Saber Beams are plasma based. which are super-heated gasses. Super heated way above the melting point of metels, which the Heat weapons cannot do, otherwise they will destroy themselves.#nosmileys

*rolls eyes*
I swear, you and Cent are the only ones that get this worked up over the stuff.
It doesn't change the fact that beam and heat weapons have parried at high speed and remained in contact for (comparitively) long periods of time with little to no damage to the heat weapon. Just get over it and deal with it.

Just get over it and deal with it. Incorrect, MR. If it's a solid contact, with a good deal of force put behind it, the beam saber will always cut through a heat saber. Why? The quantity of energy coming through the beam saber is greater than that of the energy being generated by the heat saber. If the two forces are not equal, then the stronger one will overcome the other. Those examples you refer to always involve limited contact with a glacing blow, hardly any force was put behind the swing of the saber. Therefore, they do not apply here. Now that that has been said, I'd suggest we all take MR's advice and move on.

Get ready... Get set... GO! *NM goes into lecture mode.* Retal, you do know that close range Beam weapons aren't like the long range ones? In fact, they are just heated particles surrounded by an I-Field. Do you know what happens when a solid object directly blocks the Beam? It sinks into the Beam a little. However, the Beam's own energy within the Beam will repel the attack, subsequently forcing both units off balance before there is significant damage to either weapon. There are your "glancing blows". In fact, the only close range weapon that can touch one of those Beams is another close range Beam weapon, as the I-Fields work against each other.
