[quote=Gecko] The U.N. has never gotten even vaguely close to having designed such a system once, much less multiple times. The U.N. is generally a step behind in the tech race. [/quote]

Okay, I have one question. So if the U.N saay... governs MOST of the world, and invented (at least the general idea I am getting from) Mecha, and relies most on technology behind in the Tech Race. That, really doesn't make any sense. I don't get it. Could you explain to me how this mighty technological empire is behind in the tech race, when if they are governing most of the world (at the very least should have REALLY good communication lines, a rather difficult feat) and are the most tech heavy out of all of the factions?
