Subspace Gunship: Difference between revisions

{{ArticleIcons|brawl=yes|fa=yes}}

The '''Subspace Gunship''' ({{ja|亜空砲戦艦|Akū Hōsenkan}}, ''Subspace Gunship'') is described as the ultimate weapon of the [[Subspace Army]]. Its cannon can fire a blast which "infinitely rends space", which creates the effects of the detonation of a [[Subspace Bomb]] at a great distance. The Gunship is the largest ship in the game by far and was commanded by {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} and {{SSBB|Bowser}} before its destruction at the hands of the other characters.

==Role In The Subspace Emissary==

In the cutscene ''The Great Invasion'' in the [[Subspace Emissary]], the Gunship emerges from Subspace where the [[Isle of Ancients]] originally was. Ganondorf and Bowser test its power on an arbitrary area of water by firing the main cannon, causing a large bubble of [[Subspace]] to appear in the distance. Ganondorf notices a gleam of light on the horizon; the camera zooms to reveal that the [[Halberd]] is heading for the Gunship. Ganondorf waves his arm and five cannons rise from the Gunship's front end and begin firing orange blasts at the battleship. The Halberd activates its auxiliary engines and scoots under the hail of fire. Ultimately, a blast hits true and penetrates the Halberd from bow to aft. Another shot hits the port side by the center of the ship, causing it to split in half. The Halberd begins to fragment into pieces and begins falling towards the ocean before exploding violently. Heralded by the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl Main Theme]], four smaller ships (the [[Falcon Flyer]], one [[Arwing]], Samus' [[Gunship]], and Olimar's [[Hocotate Ship]]) emerge from the Halberd's explosion and press onward. The Subspace Gunship's smaller cannons are activated as the villains fume, and the small crafts skillfully weave and evade heavy fire amidst a storm of lasers. A gleam becomes visible in the distance; the camera zooms to reveal it is [[Kirby]] on the [[Dragoon]]. Kirby speeds up the Dragoon and flies directly through a weak, skinnier portion of the Subspace Gunship's cannon, suggesting that the other ships were a distraction so Kirby could launch a surprise attack. The Gunship starts exploding. Realizing the battle is lost, Ganondorf and Bowser scowl and step back into Subspace as the Theme begins receding. The four smaller ships and the [[Dragoon]] pursue them into the darkness (with the Hocotate Ship sputtering a bit, possibly overworked by evading the Gunship's fire or simply referencing its battered nature). A last shot of the fragmented, falling craft is shown.

==Trophy Description==

''Ganondorf made the Subspace Bomb factory self-destruct in order to draw this ultimate weapon out from Subspace. It's capable of infinitely rending space, and its firepower is greater than that of any weapon. It exists to draw all of [[World of Trophies|this world]] into Subspace, but the last-ditch efforts of the fighters might prevent this.''
