Status Update: I dunno if y'all noticed but there was a big ol' steam sale on RPGs, Bloomtown and Zelda came out, Metaphor comes out today, and we got Romancing Saga 2, Mario and Luigi, and Dragon Quest III all coming out like every other week from here on. I am somewhat distracted, so uh...
...for specific subsystems and frames and shit for gundam/code geass/etc stuff, work your way up to them. Plan vote, yadda yadda. I'm giving y'all a *lot* of elbow room to work with on tech trees here, so your little fleet could end up everything from like, a bunch of transforming super zakus...
...for cheap! Thanks to Skull Squadron you have plenty of mostly intact samples to work with, and take advantage of.
[ ] A Big Autopsy: It's not *really* your thing, but the biologists are curious about the bodies of the [Zentraedi Race]. How the heck does someone so big even move around...
...There is a fair amount of public sentiment to build up a combined defense effort, especially after the Feddies and the Delaz Fleet wasted a *significant* portion of their forces fighting each other in November. Whether or not anything actually comes of it will take some time though . . ...
...folks were smart enough to realize just how expensive and slow rebuilding would be. Nobody really wanted to be so deeply in debt to the Federation *or* colonies in order to rebuild a destroyed dome.
As everyone got to work in repairing the key systems of the SDF-1, the injured were cycled...
Also I *think* I mentioned picking up some extra folks from Canada, yeah? Even if I didn't make a big deal out of it? Lake Winnipeg area not lookin' too hot after a near colony drop, the macross firing it's gun, and landing. I'll get a rough number up later-ish. Probably after the vote is...
Good lord, these typos. Fixing that.
Re: Population. The SDF-1 in canon had over 70k people aboard between crew and civilians. Right now it is doing a lot of automation, and Ruri is effectively doing the lions share of the work by directly interfacing with the ship with her...
@saganatsu The SDF-1 runs on an fancy precursor generator that does not *so far* need to be topped off. Instead you burn through it's supply, and it 'refills' on it's own so to speak. Rechargeable batteries! Multiple consecutive space folds will damage the ship no matter the circumstance, and...
...Ziel have survived.
Kou Uraki's GP03 is Damaged, but survived.
A number of Zeon-aligned units have switched sides to the Federation.
Tensions are *even worse* than before.
Ramiel vs Pacific Fleet ends in a perfect win for the Angel.
Ramiel vs Area 11 ends in a victory for Area 11.
Ramiel has...
...of the entire Earth sphere, as well as fleets and armies from multiple polities, the SDF-1 teleported to Earth in the shape of a giant robot and *tackled a colony drop*. The inspiring act convinced others to abandon their orders and assist, and delayed it enough to allow the repaired Macross...
...is rationed out to placed like Pendragon rather than the smaller settlements. It is this event that will cause Britannian influence to actually *increase* over the Earth sphere, prolonging anti-spacenoid settlements for a long, long time. This too will lead to even more war, more death, more...
Honestly, I feel like it can go either way really. On the one hand you have a Colony being dropped somewhere on north america, which kills a lot of people and has big environmental effects. On the other you have some kind of alien capable of slaughtering the entire Feddie pacific fleet reaching...
Threadmarks: The Battle for Casatus Dome . . . End?!
...53 +5 MOTIVATION = 58
Space Bus Team: 49 +5 MOTIVATION = 54
Grasshoppers: 60 -10 Drones = 50
???: Nat 100. Seriously.
With the forces in space *thoroughly* distracted, the Space Bus Rescue Assault Force (Name yet to be finalized) was allowed to reach Casatus Dome completely unmolested. What...
Sorry, forgot to mention the vote was called, I just didn't get a chance to finish up the other half of the update. It'll be up tonight . . . I have rolled four artificial crits, and a natural crit, for the Macross forces. *throws up hands*
I swear this was gonna be an actual fight.
