Mecha!

[cats]

.Please disregard this has switched to a gundam RPG

If you dont know what mecha is those are the suites in battletech or gundam or many other games and storys.

This game involves an alien, human war. The main theme is war but stuff will also happen between and after battles too. Quick note oneshot kills also count on vehicles, however if I don't take the time to name or describe a carecter there canon foder; feel free to kill them.

Human
Humans are pretty much the same with a few exceptions. Pycics are just barely apearing now. Also this is about 100 year in the future give or take. A small base is on the moon.

Nato is the standard power. Most soldeirs belong to it. Natos key advatage is its big in turms of units. Nato has two special forces. The Black Knights and the Espers.

BLACK KNIGHTS:
If you choose this group you will normaly fight with little aid. The main thing they have is money. Not only are the troops well trai but they are very well funded. They normaly have custum mecha, and if its destoryed they'll have a new one with in two weeks.

ESPERS:
A very new unit. This unit only uses psycic pilots. There advatage is psy sheilds. The more powerful pilots can hold an impetrable wall for about six seconds. The machinery needed for this though pervents the use of Laminate armor. Also they have not finished mass produceing there componets. It may take a month or two to get a new suite.


Kraklon
The Kraklon are slightly more advanced. They however fight many reckless wars. A recent war saw the destruction of there home world and scatered units. One such unit found its way to earth. They plan to live here. Kraklons look like humans. They grew on a similer planet. How ever there is less light normaly. The mager difrence is they have slit eyes for night vision. They have one special force.

CYBRED:
The cybred are all genticly made and not born. The reason fore this is a large advantage. They can grow a suite around them. They project an exoskeleton out of there bodys. There much smaller then most mecha, about 1/2 the normal size. Despite being organic they use a special sort of energy propalsion. The however are very limited in armor and firepower.

Mecha
HUMAN:
Humans have all modern weapons available in many sizes.
Lasers, Particle cannons, and railgus are also available. No nukes.
BLACK KNIGHTS:
Sam options but they normaly have stealth and are always made out of Laminate armor (really reduces explosive damage).
ESPER:
Espers as above but only light weapons can be mounted in the body and non of the unit can have Laminate armor.

KRAKLON:
Most human tech however the also have Plasma weapons and energy blades. They are unaware of nukes and laminate armor.
CYBRED:
Really limited. Any hand held blade weapon. Spines are also comon. Ranged weapons are limited to built in wips and acid shooting organs. Acid is not as strong as you would think.

Remember the more weapons you have the less armor and pseed you have. In any case avoid haveing more then six weapons. Cybred are limited to three

I think I'll join in. I've got a personal Gundam I've designed so I think I'll use him here. I'll be a member of the Black Knights, if you don't mind Cats.

I've got the bio for my Gundam Virsyon at home, I'll post it here tomorrow.

 

[cats]

What the hell?

Oh people actuly replied. I set a new record for myself yay.

Yoda I would of done a battletech story, except I don't know quite enough.

Um I did some thinking and well skrew the weapon limit I said eirlier. Just think alot of big guns will slow you down.

Bandman thanks for posting. If your going to be a human I'll start on the other side to make it interesting. You metioned a gundam just remember the human lak energy blades.

Name: Lee
sex: female
side: Kraklon
Unit: Cybred
age: 7 years
eyes: purple
hair: Waist legth blond
bio: Standard story. DNA made from scrach. A year of acelerated growth. Pretty comon attack type. She is well normal for a cybred. She is under supervision though. She has a slight lecherous streak going, it could become a problem. She would of been killed but she has lived threw one war. They don't like removeing surveing pilots wether defective or not.

Mecha: herself
weapons: Acid cannon on right arm. Very thin wip on lef arm. Hand held sword one handed stores on her back.
Info:
In this form she uses her speed to here advantage. She has very litle protection against strong hits. Normaly fights as close as possible useing her sword to remove limbs. The wip is used to retrive the sword when droped or thrown. Acasionly she will use it to throw an opnet off balance.

Gundam Virsyon Specs

Ok. Here's my Specs for my Gundam. Cats, i'm still trying to figure out what you meant by energy blades. Do you mean Beam swords? Considering my Gundam uses a Minovsky reactor, does that mean I'm out of it? Oh well, I'll post my specs and you tell me what might be wrong. If need be, I'll try to figure out what the hell I can change. However, it's going to have to wait until I get back from this weekend. Going to an Anime Convention in Chicago so until next Monday, hold your comments.


Name: Gundam Virsyon

Reg. Number: HS-13MSC

Height: Head-17.4 m; Mobile Armor Mode – 10.5 m; Total-20 m

Weight: 12 Tons

Armor: Luna Titanium with Gundanium Alloy.

Power plant: Minovsky-type ultra compact Reactor rated at 7,500kw ± 1,500kw

Propulsion:
Minovsky Drive Thrusters x 2 – located on Horizontal flaps of Wings
When in Mobile Suit mode, the 2 wings on the backpack provide main thrust, however when transformed into Mobile Armor Mode (think Gundam Epyon) the thrust is shunted to 3 nozzles in the back and wings are used for maneuverability. Suit has ability for atmospheric flight, take off into space as well as Reentry on it’s own power, but only in MA mode.
Vernier thrusters and apogee motors x 15

Weapons:
Strike Claws x 2-located on forearms.
Can fold back when not in use and fold out in flight mode.
Claw Cannons x 2-located between claws.
Linked to reactor, based on VSBR Technology. Can be adjusted for different rates and strength of fire.
Epyon Beam Sword x 1-located on right hip skirt in rack, hand-carried in use.
Connected to MS reactor and equipped with VSBR Technology, allowing to be as long as 200' when used.
Epyon Heat Rod x 1-located on back of MS.
Can be used as a tail in MS mode, but in order to be used as a melee weapon, one hand must be retracted to have end hooked up in place and this renders that side's claw and cannon inoperative until heat rod is removed.
Beam Barrier Shields x 2-located on the base of the claws.
Operational only when claws are retracted. Can be combined to form a limited shield to protect front of MS.






Double Mega sonic Cannon x 1-located in chest above cockpit.
This cannon is a last resort weapon. It fires 2 beams of super concentrated Minovsky mega particles a distance of about 200 km. Does cause a lot of damage but due to the excessive shunting of power from the reactor to the weapon, all power is lost within the Mobile Suit. Main power is restored to suit and main essentials for movement 90 seconds after firing. Main power is restored to suit and main essentials for movement 90 seconds after firing. Weapons come back online 30 seconds after that and the Drive System 30 seconds after the beam weapons. During this time, the pilot is completely “in the dark” as the only power available is a backup Generator to keep the computers active and readies the charge to restart the Minovsky reactor.


Optional Armaments:
3 tube disposable missile launchers x 2 – located on the side skirts, hand carried in use.
Bits x 4 – located on Shoulder boards with 2 on each shoulder.
Bits hold 1 beam cannon each comparable to the Claw Cannons stated above. Only used with Flash System indicated below.

Equipment:
Main Computer – Similar to the Flash System.
This computer system utilizes the same pilot interface as the Gundam Epyon. There are no monitors within the cockpit. Pilot has a HUD display built into his helmet that allows him to access anything as well as increase ability to identify targets. The main system itself is dependent on pilot, however the Flash System is utilized. The Flash System is a learning computer that helps the pilot in reaction times as well as interfacing with remote controlled bits, but isn’t as controlling as other computer systems available on the market. This specific system for the Virsyon is tuned to be used by a non-Newtype. The pilot’s thoughts are transferred to the computer and the computer does the linkup with the bits to make them move. It can also move the bits on it’s own if the need arises and the pilot is preoccupied, however the pilot gives the order to fire, not the computer on its own.

Reference:
VSBR (Variable Speed Beam Rifle)– Gundam F91 and V Gundam
Minovsky Drive System – V Gundam
Flash System – Gundam X

MS Design:
Mixture of Gundam Epyon from Gundam W and Gundam Virsyon from Gundam X with main emphasis on design from Epyon. The suit, like stated earlier, can transform into the 2 headed dragon looking Mobile Armor mode of Epyon, but has the extendable arms, claws, head design and Flash System from Gundam Virsyon and series Gundam X respectively.

Um damn

Um well odvoisly you know more bout gundam then me. I would have many problem s with your desing in the above campaign. But screw that gundam would probaly be easier to do so um.
Keep your design, we'll do a gundam campaign instead. Beside thats easier then making a new universe.

By the way, let me know if they have a lot of TekkaMan stuff. I used to love that show. Psot by the time you get back. Besides I did less then a days thought in the other plot.

 

[bandman2000]

Sorry I screwed up your Thread man!

I didn't plan on messing up whatever plans you had for this. If need be I'll just get out of this so that way you can get people to do stuff in the battletech mode instead of Gundam.

Hopefully you can figure this out later this weekend. If anyone else comes in for battletech, then just forget about me. If anyone comes in for Gundam, I guess I'll be in there.

Once again man, I'm so sorry about fucking up your thread's idea. I think we can keep the main idea and perhaps some of the characters such as making this an intergalactic war. Hell, someone might come in with a Valkyrie from "Macross"

And yes, I'll be on the lookout for some TekkaMan merchandise. If i do buy anything TekkaMan, I'll send it to you no problems. That is if I can find anything.

 

[cats]

Dont worry

Hey personaly this was a generic thing. I like gundam and in the last year or two Ive done more thinking in that. Odly I got a story set up for that. I just need to figure out one ore two details. This will be fun I just need the weakend to make some adjustments. What bugs me is you even have ceral numbers on your parts. Just tone that down a bit. I lack that much knowlgde.

I can tell you this will be in the moble suite gundam line. and Not the gundam wing story line. That means there will be newtypes.

Plot

This takes place after Char's Counter Attack So Char and Armoro are dead. 5 years after that big battle we have the Newtype DNA stolin from the federation. 10 years after the battle the story begins. Um bandman your mech is good and all but don't you need a pilot. A new villan group is building an rmy now unknown to the federation.

bio: Lee was only 10 during the final war with zeon. Like most boys that age he was obcecid with the moble suites. Even though the war was over he bacame a soulder first optunity. He wounded up the pilot of a new suite. The Hunter as he call's it was decided not to be massed produced. It was a one of a kind suite now that they decided to go for numbers over quailty.



The suite is like gundam Alex but with the gold anti beamcoating of gundams in "Zeta Gundam". E.X.A.M. is the anti newtype system from "Blue Destiny" It is pretty much the zero system but the insanity only happens if the suite is damaged.

 

[bandman2000]

Good Storyline man, but that would negate my Gundam. The tech I have is much later than Char's Counterattack. Hell, this would be before Gundam F91 when the first showing of beam shields and VSBR tech comes online. Either I have to change my suit completley or we need to punch it up to somewhere between Victory Gundam and the Movie G-Saviour.

Hey, that might be good to have us as members of the Illuminati trying to do that job and perhaps one more last remnant of Zeon.

It's all up to you but we've got to be on the same page. Plus I don't think this could work out unless we get more people.

And if this thing does work out, I'll give the stats on my Pilot.

 

[cats]

UUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMM

I am lacking in knowlegde of f91 and Gsavior. how much later is that. and as for other player I noticed Zeo is just hanging on for DBNW maybe get him in hear too. Just relised if your gundam is at that level no wonder I was confused. I don't want to be pushy but um if we go much further ahead I'll be totaly lost.

 

[bandman2000]

Ok Cats, I agree to ask Zeo in on this. He might be interested. As for the Gundams... Hm... Ok. Char's Counterattack occurs in UC 0092-0093. F91 occurs in UC 0123 then Victory Gundam is in UC 0153. G-Saviour is in UC 0225 if i remember correctly.

As for info. How about this: Check out www.gundam.com and www.mahq.net Gundam.com is good for story info and mahq.net is where the Most extensive Gundam Mech Library is on the net. Check out those two sites. If you still feel overwhelmed, then I'll have to bite the bullet and change my Gundam completely and not use the Virsyon at all.

Let me know. Those two sites were indispensable for me to help me with Gundam Knowledge. They still are.

 

[cats]

Thanks

Hey please wait for me to post a new gundam atleast I know the pilot won't change.

 

[bandman2000]

No prob, I'll wait. The biggest problem I think is... what are we going to do especially with the storyline considering it appears that only 2 of us are in it?

 

[cats]

Good point

I did a lot of thinking. The easy way to solve the pilot problem is to make a pot labeled gundam. Most threads have the problem of geting one person to join in. Unless the idea atracks people who know the story.

I figure we make the new post after a few more discusions. We can then use this as an OOC: thread. This way we can disscuse other info here. Sort of like the "DBZ ideas thread" was.

Now I don't mean to drag you back and forth but I did some thinking and maybe its best we go to either the Gundam Wing world or an earlier time. This way more amercans are capable of knowing whats going on. Most people I know where big fans of Gundam Wing and the fewer watched 0080 and 8th ms team. Pretty much I know one person who watched as much of moble suite gundam as they should.

My guess is we come up with a plot adding to gundam wing if we can. I think it has the most drawing power. The only problem with that is every other person might have a beam syth. (That weapon is over rated)

 

[bandman2000]

Ok. I can do GW, but NO ONE can use Wing Zero or the Zero System. I can get rid of my Flash System and not have Bits. My friend and I have had so many rants about that fucking Gundam and it's Twin Buster Rifle. Wing Gundam was good in that it only had enough power for 3 shots then it was useless. People could have their suits based off of the Mechs from GW since they have the most things available, but they can't just take something like Epyon, call it something else and say it's a new suit...man that sounds familiar. We would also have to make it about AC 220 so that way it's more interesting. Now the only thing to figure out is who's the good guys and who's the bad guys. We could do Earth=Good, Space=Bad but I think it would be better for something like Zeta Gundam. The Earth Nation decides to make sure that the Colonies can't rebel anymore and so in AC 220 they form something like the Titans, that way we become something like the AEUG and I would have my pilot be like a hired mercenary for the AEUG.

let me know dude.

Plot

I was thinking of the zeta gundam plot before you siad it oddly. I'm not shure if I want to take a plot like that though. It would be a place to start though and right now were going no were.

Bout that zero system I agree. If it some how gets involved I say we start changeing who they shot. That way they do horible with it. Then bout that buster rifle consern. We defenetly need to stress the three shot and you'll probably miss thing.

My opion on the buster rifle is its great. If the target can't move.

 

[bandman2000]

The whole thing with Zero's Buster Rifle was that it seemed to have the energy to destroy a colony with one shot and didn't seem to run out of energy. For me and my friend it was a total killjoy. Now the Gundam X was a great mobile suit. It had a cannon like the Buster Rifle, but it was hooked up to the suit and in order for it to be shot, the mobile suit had to get in contact with a microwave power generator on the moon so that the energy for the gun could be transmitted. This limited it's use to being at night and only one shot at a time so the pilot had better get it right the first time.

But then again that's just me.

On pretty much everything else you said, I agree.

........

How bout you takeing a stab at the story. Then I cna make some sujstions. Then we revise til we got a good idea. That said you work on a story. My brian is on vacation right now.

 

[bandman2000]

Ok, I'll work on a story for an RPG. The only thing is trying to not make it sound like a specific series. I'm going to try to make it interesting. Give me a couple days to flesh it out alright?

 

[cats]

k

Speaking from experince don't over do the story line. General idea and a starting plot are what we need. I've done many oral campings on diffrent plots and player never fail to come up with something you didn't expect. Good luck and thanks.

 

[bandman2000]

I'll have to remember to keep it simple.

 

[cats]

Note bellow us.

The guy in the note bellow us titled "Hey I'm a new guy" ment to put it in here. I think.

Any how I've been working on several mechs for this and I will be a guy in this one. My plan now is some one in the Maquinac core. Um, Quatre's group no way I spelled it right.

The suite will be skirted and made for combat on flat ground. I don't mean skirted like the tragose. I mean like the dom, that looks better. Thus the desert, over water and urban areas will be the best for it. It has two head vulcans. No other built in weapons, however it carrys two heat katars. (Katar is a single blade attached to the wrist. The assain in Diablo 2 use's them as well as a carecter in FF8. I can't think of any other examples right now.) It will also carry a rifle of some sort. I'm switching between a shot gun, a roket launcher, and a good old fashion machine gun.

Other note. I was thinking weapons and national militrizeation can came back into play, after the Endless Waltz conflict.

 

[bandman2000]

Understood

Ok. That might be interesting slant. let me work on it and I'll try to get the story figured out, at least the back story, as I'm sure there will be.

 

[cats]

k

let you know if I think of anything else.
