Coincidentally, I also learned of the series through TVTropes... through the Defeat Means Friendship article. Sadly I haven't been able to find a good site to watch it, especially before my computer stopped playing videos effectively. Because it looked really, really awesome.
Well... you could grab some torrents... try on BakaBt
Friend request via Wave Motion Gun has to be the most awesome way to make friends, especially with the high rate of success.
There is a link to my pictures on Tvtropes. I'm famous! XD
Indeed, Nanoha shows no mercy she will befriend you into the hospital XD
Yeah, from what I am seeing, the only other magical girl that comes close to ridiculous use of firepower is Homura Akemi from PMMM, but it's tricky comparing time stopping and vast swathes of military ordinance (all to nice Faustian undertones) to Nanoha's befriending arsenal.
Although those are the only two in the Magical Girl genre that I like the most due to their unique trope use (you can see TvTropes wrecked my vocabulary a bit).
Her attacks could be named "Badassery Aptitude Test" and not be out of place.
Well we all know that Homura wants to shoot Madoka with her love XD Repeatedly and like a fist of an angry God (reference to certain sexual activity unintended). Not sure if you are familiar with the franchise but Homura is a kinda/sorta expy of Emiya Kiritsugu from Fate/Zero. Both are depressed-looking combat pragmatists that make great use of modern day weaponry and can manipulate time. Both also have ideals that lead to their own destruction.
Yes both series are far removed from typical Mahou Shoujo. Nanoha focuses on catching the attention of older, male viewers while PMMM is a very grim deconstruction of Magical Girl genre...
Indeed you can only survive them if you are badass enough, if you are Worthy of being her slave XD
