That's a nice piece of work, Zugy. But which one of these is the Tau Cross? And I don't see a cross in the Dummy Plug Factory.--V 07:15, 24 January 2008 (PST)

First row: regular and inverted Latin cross.
Second row: Misato's pendant/New Tokyo-3 as Greek cross.
Third row: Lilith on tau cross and tau within each pentagram as in the picture. --Zugzwang 10:00, 24 January 2008 (PST)
Lilith is not on a Tau cross; that's a normal Latin cross. I can't see the crosses inside of the pentagrams but I'll take your word that they're Tau crosses. Good. Btw, on here it is officially just "Tokyo-3" not "New Tokyo-3" (which is redundant). Thank you. --V 12:27, 24 January 2008 (PST)
You'd have to give an example of Lilith on a regular Latin cross 'cause I didn't see her on one in the series, she's on a tau cross that has a separated upper arm - it's probably better to talk about this in the F.G.P. forum if this is a matter of contention between us. The tau crosses are in the very centre of each pentagram, they're not that difficult to make out on my monitor at least! --Zugzwang 06:09, 26 January 2008 (PST)
According to the wikipedia entry, a Tau Cross appears to be curved, as does a google image search. I think what you mean is that Lilith's cross doesn't have a top section on it: this isn't so much a "Tau Cross" proper as a "modified Latin Cross, called a Tau Cross" (it looks like a big capital T, no curves), but apparently that is an applicable term for what Lilith's Cross is. The resolution is not good enough to see the T's inside of the pentagrams in the Dummy Plug Plant
