Talk:Queadluun-Rhea

From Macross Compendium

(Redirected from Talk:Queadluun-Rea)

I originally thought that the Pixie's were firing paint rounds from their arms guns, meaning that for their Queadluun's, the tri-barrel pulse lasers ahd been swapped out for ballistic weaponry. However, after some looking around, I see that they fire them from the chest cannons instead (around 15:04, Kuran is clearly shown firing them from the chest at Alto's VF-35). The question now is whether the new Queadluun's are carrying guns with standard N.U.N.S. calibre rounds, or if those are paint rounds adapted to Zentraedi (Meltrandi?) calibre? -d3v 19:31 5/5/2008

Wasn't it supposed to be called Queadluun-Rau? Anyway, since it's a reccurring mecha, What's the better:

1) do a single entry, listing all variations in the same page, and listing this page on every appropriate category;

2) do a separate entry for every variation/series? --Verythrax Draconis 11:57, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

The official site and various texts specifically call it "クァドラン・レア/Queadluun Rea". --Azrael 14:23, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Well, the same can be said about Rau, I found several entries in a quick Google search (it even tried to correct me when I used Rea). It's something new I think, since most Rea occurrences that I could find refers to Frontier or something somewhat recent. Maybe it's valid to mention both spellings, or use Rea just for Frontier and Rau for the older series. I prefer the first option. --Verythrax Draconis 17:15, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
As I understand it, it is intentional that Zentraedi language does not easily transliterate to Japanese, English, or any other Earth language. This was to emphasize that they are alien. --Irinami 22:19, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
