Gundam Wing: AC215 War again.

20 years after the Eve War has ended, peace lays over the earth and colonies as it has for the past 18 years. But as long as mankind lives, war will follow.

Dark side of the moon: Preventer Ship Freedom: 02:48:08 Hours
"This is the Freedom to Preventer HQ, We are under attack my Virgo Mobile Dolls! We need back up! Repeat this is the Freedom to Preventer HQ, We nee------"

-----------------------------------

Perventer HQ: London: 15:31:19 Hours
"That was the last message from the freedom we got this morning." the Preventer officer said as the screen on the wall display change to that of a image of a Virgo MD. "It would seem who ever these guys are, have gotten ahold of some Virgo 3s... Although all data related to the Virgo 3s are top secret so little is known about them..." He changed the image on the screen again.

The door opened and a young woman stepped in and let the door close behind her so the light from the hallway didn't shine in. She stood in the back and watched the images on screen "War, Peace, and Revaluation." She whispered.

-----------------------------------

MO-17: Dark side of the moon: Unknown base.
Man 1 "We're made our first move... Time for phase 2."
Man 2 "Will the Preventers respond as planned?"
Man 1 "Yes, there should be no deviations in the plan this soon."
Woman "....."
Man 2 "So let us begin phase 2."
Man 3 "Aren't you forgetting something?"
Man 2 "And what would that be Walred?"
Walred "The Preventers still have the Tallgeese III..."
Man 1 "It is out dated... The Virgo 3s will be more then a match... Plus our intel says it's pilot is no longer in the earth sphere."
Walred "Just don't take them lightly..."
Man 2 "You worry to much Walred.."
Man 1 "I agree..."
Woman "If you don't need me I'm leaving."
Man 1 "Just because your not part of this phase doesn't mean you should give us the cold shoulder.."
Man 2 "Yes don't be so harsh, you'll get your turn.."
Walred "Bah... You fools will batch this whole operation up if you don't take more care..."
Man 1 "And who's the one who thought it'd be best not to attack first?"
Man 2 "Yes, as you can see the Preventers can not stop us now..."
Walred "Don't drag the rest of us down with you."

Didn't you try starting a Gundam thread a few months ago, amchentai? What happened to that?

Not sure if I was the one who started that Thread, But we ended up moving to another MB for it, sadly lack of players and the RP ended up dying off.
Also the old thread was going to be set in it's own time line, this will have characters from Gundam animes
But we'll see if anything is made out of this one, Gundam never really took off in the US so =\
(And yes I'm one of the few who bought the toys and cards, And if anyone plays the US or the JP card game let me know =D )
 

Well yeah, and again it was going to be it's own time line, this would be more like Dynasty Warriors Gundam or Super Robot Wars games
People will be able to play pilots from the anime rather then come up with all new characters(Although you can make your own characters)
heck I might even throw in the Dynasty Warriors Gundam Story, since it would make for a way to get everyone together at fight and what not.
 
And, again, like before, I still know next to nothing about the Gundam universe aside from what I've seen of Gundam Wing and one or two other of the earlier seasons that were clones of each other.
 
Well Jedi, That would be good enough =D
Although Wing didn't deal with Bit class weapons it's not a problem.
And there are enough Governments/Federations to hate, so your good for a reason to fight if you should need that one.
 
So we have two player so far.
And most likely we will only start with 2-4 of the factions listed in the first post.
And add more as we get more players.
 
May I make some suggestions

This is how I created characters for an Anime adventure I ran...

Character Bio:


Name:
Gender:
Age: (18 min as per Lit, but as you add skills add years.)
Nationality:
Race:
Physical Description:
Personality:
Family Background:
Current Occupation:

Skills: (think what skills you had around the time you finished High School or some other type of formal education...List 12 separate skills and you can specialize)

Career Skills: (Jobs you have done in the past prior to your current career. You can list up to four different jobs. I read your description and give more skills and stuff)

Family Background ( I read and it gets you items, contacts, assets, and more skills)

Hobbies: ( 4 or 5 things you do strictly for the fun and the pleasure of it..they can mean more skills and items)

Example:

In another similar game rengadeirishman setup a character using a similar bio and this is how it went. In this example it was a futuristic anime style thread. He wasn't playing an average person, but you get the idea.

Not sure if some of that applies here but thanks.
Basic Character info for pre set Gundam Characters can be found on the net, if your making your own something like what Jagged posted would help.
Also if using a Gundam character, try to keep them in character =D
 
Perhaps the simplest idea over making a new word or making a joined world would be to simply do a world specific thread.

And, again, like before, I still know next to nothing about the Gundam universe aside from what I've seen of Gundam Wing and one or two other of the earlier seasons that were clones of each other.

As for clones of each other it does that do to its 30 years of televised history.

First off Mobile suite gundam, gundam 0080, gundam 8th ms team all take place at roughly the same time.

Gundam 0083, gundam zeta, double zeta all take place in the same world after that first war and they end that timeline with Chars counter attack in which both the main villian and hero finaly kill each over fighting about who killed the woman they both loved who died in Mobile suit Gundam.

Gundam Wing was made about 12 years after the original and was roughly designed to retail the original story in a new way. Hence why both Char and Zeeches wear masks and had their peace loving fathers assinated before the war starts. Personaly I like Wing alot more do to its cinematic rather then realistic apraoch to the world; and the character study of the 6 pilots and one diplomat.

Gundam seed I have yet to finish, but is roughly a retailing of gundam wing and came out about ten years after gundam wing. They reverted to a more realistic style and this time put more work into politic and battleship combat. The two sequel series I know very little of and won't mention.

That leaves:
G-Gundam which is completely by itself and explores a world with out war in an over the top way.
Turn-A Gundam which I refuse to watch, but deals with aliens vs humans and an ancient warmachine rather then a scientific break threw.

You forgot Victory Gundam, F91, Gundam X & Gundam 00 =)(Yes I am a Gundam Nerd I'm sorry)

And if it would be easier I can make it one time line, say a Gundam Wing story.
Would take place on Mars, since EW kinda said the earth sphere no longer had MS.
There are still lots of MS to play with in one time line.
SEED Destiny CE would work too.
All depends on what you guys want =)
But if we are setting it in one time line, UC, CE, AC, FC, it might take a little bit longer for me to come up with a new story.
I just edited my post to get a basic idea of what's going on, leaving room for people to join factions and what not.
 
Those arn't actully gundam. f91, victory, and 00 are actully cheap chineese knock offs. Thought you'd know that. As for Gundam X its actully french.

Now that I am done lieing lets get to the topic.

Playing in the Wing universe kinda hinges on ignoring the happily ever after part of endless waltz.

As for seed, I am not familar enough with it myself, but like you said it could work.

Then ofcoarse let us not forget the original story. I would enjoy playing a newtype with little remote controled bits flying every where.

Then we have G-gundam which while totaly absurd could be done easily.

That is easy, The last line is "And mobile suits were never again seen in the Earth sphere again."

If you recall, Noin and Zechs were headed to Mars to pre-start the Tara forming of Mars. No one said anything about Mobile Suits seen on Mars now did they? =)

(Yes I totally know too much)

Also to keep in mind is the side stories, such as G-Unit which took place in the asteroid belt beyond Mars. And although the Mobile suits were dismantled it doesn't mean parts or data regarding the G Units was lost totally. Earth is at peace, but who knows about Mars, there are many options here.

P^3(Perfect Peace People) MO-X(The guys running the Mining Asteriods) even the remnants of the Romefeller Foundation.

If we want to we can even has a test bed Zero System 2.0 trying to ride the world of war in it's own evil mind controlling way!
 
I've got an idea for a Gundam that uses a more advanced and intergrated version of the Zero System.
 
So what are we thinking then?
Total AC time line?
Also if so, should we place it only a few yearsafter EW or many years after EW?
 
Let me throw this in bed with Madonna and see if she sleeps with it....

How about a Gundam style thread. Come up with our own original stuff. Have a jumping off point and start from there. Our own characters and vehicle concepts within reason...what do you think?
 
I think I was misunderstood. I was suggesting we let the mobile suits back on earth, simply because I'd rather not dance around the issue just for the sake of one sentence at the end of a movie.

Jagged if start the thread say 100 years after the end of endless waltz, then all cannon characters are virtually non-existent. Nearly all MS would require updates and be phased out. I kind of view it as little different from making up our own world. Or at least that is how the DBZ thread I was in years ago went. No returning characters, the only real commonality was the existence of capsule corp and a few characters had genetic ties.
 
To:Jagged
This would fall more under the lines of Super Robot Wars then Gundam.
Mainly for the reason of other then the name Gundam, players could have anything they wanted to for mecha.


To:Cats
Are you saying we skip EW?
Like pick up after the anime?
Because if not, and we keep EW, it is going to make things a lot harder.
Although it would keep the Gundam count low, it also keeps MS battles over all low. which is good or bad depending I guess.
 
Well, I also know one other timeline, but that happens to be copied in several other timelines, so you could say I know a couple other timelines.

As for my input, I'd rather go with Wing, or at least the tech. The Gundam I have in mind is pretty much based off of Wing.
 
AM, I like earth its where I keep my things. :) I am not suggesting we pretend EW didn't happen, I am simply suggesting we allow MS onto earth.

As for doing Wing, it makes since. It was by far the most popular gundam series in the US.
