She could have just as easily been knocked back off of her feet at an initial veloocity measured in centimetres per second. For an object with a high centre-of-gravity like the humanoid body, that's enough to knock us over.

True enough. And I'm only guessing. But it does look like she took a big old thump and was flying through the air, limbs flailing.


--- Quote from: BenRG on 27 Jan 2016, 03:34 ---What about the flash? Well, the bullet struck Alice's exo-armour, which I suspect is an 'immovable object'. Thus, I suspect that a lot of its kinetic energy may have been turned into thermal energy, so what we're seeing is incandescent copper and lead radiating away from the impact point.

I think a hyper-velocity projectile, going fast enough to vaporize on impact, is superficially indistinguishable from being an explosive round, as already postulated. Besides, we probably won't find out if its one or the other as guns aren't really Jephs thing - I get the idea he just finds a reference picture of a cool one, draws it accurately, does some cool explosions,  then just leaves it at that.

BenRG:
We round out the month with a very artistically-abstract action sequence (for added alliterative appeal).

(click to show/hide)I don't know about super strength, but Alice obviously has lightning fast reflexes to be able to catch a just-launched RPG mid-air like that!
I'm wondering what upsets her adversary more: the fact that Alice is beating her or the fact that she's breaking all her toys!

Kugai:
Well, now that that's settled .............

Method of Madness:
Notice that she says "stop trying to shoot me", not "stop trying to kill me".

Kugai:
Alice is immortal


Her last name is really McCloud
