This RP is about Character to Character interactions.

Not about vehicles, not about ships, seriously yo.

With the obvious exclusion of mechs.

P.S. Oh, nvm, reread his CS, I see the description. Post is pending edits.

Mechs are extensions of one's being, and there are characters large enough to fight with Mechs. Having a Mech isn't unreasonable for a badass normal to fight a character like Sukoh.

But a tank?

That's suicide.

Is he any less of a character if he sits in a tank? Somehow less capable of characters development? Would an AI tank be any more of a character? We're in a magic swordsman rut, my friends, one that I intend to defy.

Tanks aren't neccesarily larger than mechs, you know.

No, I don't think you understand. A tank would get cut, or crushed, to bits by even the most average intermediate combatant. It's slow as hell, and its ability to aim ain't fast either. If someone can fly, the thing is even more useless, and if they can just keep moving out of its aim and circle in on it, they can keep doing damage to it while you sit inside of it uselessly.

Seriously, there's not much point in it.

@Koka: Edited my post to suit.

So you'll fight it, yoshua? You seem convinced you'll win.

A tank is literally suicide.
Your character will never win a fight.
If you post a tank character, I'll accept it.
But I'm telling you now.
You will never win.

Any intermediate character can fuck up a tank. Literally any.

There are so many more possibilities than having a guy in a tank.
Hard Science Fiction can give you a fuckton of possibilities.

Seriously, I can cough up five ideas in the amount of time it takes me to write this explanation.

I don't underestimate my opponents, but yes, I have confidence that I could indeed win a fight against your tank character, likely using Raelis, my intermediate.

Vulcans
The Borg
Iron Man
Doomguy.
Anything from Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun that isn't a tank.

Iron Man sure isn't Hard SF. Vulcans are just a race (whose grab bag of powers is impossible), Borg are androids which I may do, never heard of Doomguy. Will look into Tiberian Sun.

Boerd, wanting to get out of a Magic Swordsman rut is all fine and dandy ( I say that, having a swordsman character). How good of a tank are you planning on making it? It would have to be an extraordinarily advanced tank

Iron Man < Tank
This is a roleplay, handwave some shit.
Borg are not androids, they are indoctrinated organics.
If you have never played DOOM I don't believe you've ever lived.

Unless you intend to enter like, five characters with different vehicles. And form some kind of hard science fiction power rangers and fuse all the vehicles into one big fucking mech.

These vehicle based characters are either:

A: Not going to ever get into fights.
B: Never going to win.

Looked up Doomguy. I have played Doom, but never knew him by that name. At intermediate, he would get owned.

It would be a very advanced tank, capable of 90 mph, which is not unreasonable given the modern Abrams can make 60 mph. The main gun, which would only be used in very long range shooting or fighting large opponents, would use rails to fire high explosive rounds or depleted uranium rounds. The coax and hatch mounted particle beams would do much of the heavy lifting against magic swordsmen.

Doomguy can run at 58mph consistently while lugging around upwards of 200-300 lbs of shit on his back.
Never gets tired.
Can punch DEMONS so hard that their intestines fall out their backs.
Has a shit ton of gear that can liquefy the final boss in seconds.

I'd say with that gear, physical capability, and what I presume would be considerable amounts of combat skill, he wouldn't need it.

I hope you're happy Boerd. I told LeeRoy on Skype that I agreed with you that Doomguy would get wrecked at Intermediate tier, and now he's vomitting information at me to try and show me the error of my ways.
