Built for fast attack, the Moon is a smaller frame Mobile Suit, fitted with appropriate guns. However, the Moon achieves it goals by installing supercharged engines onto a lightened frame, to provide a high power-to-weight ratio.

(OOC: Same as with the fighter.)

bump for sales, commentary

((Don't they have way too many armaments for their size? Plus you probably weren't around when there was a huge debate about mechas vs. conventionals... and humaniod mechas were throughly shown that they were a bad idea, good for anime, but not for real life...))

OOC:
As for the armaments, perhaps I was not clear about the locations; many of the external lasguns and lightsabers are collapsable items held in a backpack. As for the other wrist mounted stuff, well, I could make some adjustments.

As for the whole debate, I really do not care; I have made my choice. I'm sticking to it regardless.

(OOC: I think that if you don't ever try to make claims that they are superior to them or whatever, and you'll be fine.

(By superior, I mean, more maneuverable, more powerful, better armored, and the typical list of claims.).

Besides, weren't you going to make powered armor suits anyway?)

OOC: Again, I don't care about the debate, my army, my weapons-made-within-reasonable-limits. It's not the tech either, its the RPing that determines the victory.

Exactly, about the armor suits. Tanks are nice, but armor suits go in more places, and they're more fun to play with :D .

(OOC: I know you don't care, and I've read your specs. I know, about your limits, and I agree to your point about the RPing, and I frankly think that I've been involved in enough RPs to know that already, thank you. My advice is just to help you avoid some possible future cries of, "Your mechs are dumb! Mechs are Dumb! They can't do that!", you know?

I also wholeheartedly agree with the fun factor. I should get working on a few of those myself... ^_^ .)

Drawing upon experience with the Sparta, the Roger Daltrey Ground Attack Mobile Suit is a design meant to ultimately replace the tank in New Dornalian Service.

Yeah...I started that debate...

Anyway Kyanges is right, as long as you don't make claims about their superiority(even if you believe they are), hardly anyone will jump up your ass. That's experience talking.

Oh and one more thing...Robotech/Macross mechs kick Gundam ass... :p

Also, if you want fun powered armor, try Cyclones. What's more fun than an armor suit that transforms into a motorcycle and back again?

OOC: Hmm....good point. I did have that in consideration earlier, and I may have tried to imply that before, but thanks!

OOC: Might do that for the next gen of Kurosawa Armor I might be planning.....

OOC: Bump, added Rocket Artillery version of the Roger Daltrey suit.

bump for sales. Come on, that whole debate shouldn't have killed off ALL the interest in this sort of thing, should it have?
