[OOC] Outcasts Of Fortune: A Mecha RP

[Sam12435]

Yea, some context might be useful if you don't mind Mr Boss man :P

[BurningCold]

@Dynamo Frokane You could give us a description though, preferably one detailed that we'll all be able to understand to avoid any miscommunication.

[Dolerman]

I was thinking I could get Skepic to do it because I'm lazy, but its basically this:
A. When in Combat with enemy aircraft, the battles will be conducted like 'Arena' style combat so no Auto Hitting, you can only fire your weapons at the enemy but you cant hit or damage them unless the GM reacts to the attack as them being hit. For example you can say 'Tommy fired his machine gun at the bandit's wing' but not 'Tommy riddled the opponent with bullets and the bandit exploded' until After the enemy (GM) has confirmed the hit/damage. BUT as the GM I can occasionally auto hit you, if I feel the battle calls for it or if I think you cant realistically dodge the attack that my enemy aircraft are making.

@Kaiachi As long as your criminal organization has its fingers in a couple of pies, he could easily have worked for it.

He also probably bought drugs and military hardware off of her.

[Gisk]

So, any of you mech lovers picked up Titanfall 2?

[Dolerman]

Chapter 1: Fight the O'Brian Brothers!

Remember if you have any questions about combat, ask me or skepic.

@Dynamo Frokane Is it okay if I change the image for my mech? No stat or weapon changes, I just found one I like better.

I've edited the CS, so you can look at the new one, but I'll change it back if you prefer.

[BurningCold]

@Gisk I have not purchased either Titanfall.

Yep I'll accept the change

@Dynamo Frokane So I have two questions regarding the scene:

How big is the battlefield?

Do you have stats for the Flank Thunders?

@Gisk

Ahh I'm REALLY bad with metric measurements even with human sized fields. So scaling it up to Mech size makes it even more difficult.

If we say roughly that each mech is about 80 feet tall, then the area would be around the equivelent of a football field to a Mecha.

No direct stats on the FlankThunders but as heavily armoured Early Models, they are tough and built for firefights but not particularly agile or good in the air.

[Gisk]

That's plenty of info to be getting on with.

Also, good to know the scale you had in mind, I was definitely thinking about it wrong.

For reference, a blue whale is around that long, and I found this scale picture to give an idea of how big these guys are.



EDIT: By the by, the things on the bottom are not meant to be to scale. It's from a size comparison thing, and the bottom are your options. The scale is the little people above the whale.

[BurningCold]

@Dynamo Frokane These mechs are all around 80 feet tall? That seems kind of extreme to me. How do you even board one? That would take ages.

[Sam12435]

Yay, the fight begins! I'll work on a post now.

The rules seem simple enough, so let me know if I did anything wrong in the post :D

@Gisk

Ahh yes that looks about right, I probably thought they'd be even bigger. But lets go with 80 feet.

@BurningCold

Its about what I had envisioned, thats just a little bit bigger than a Gundam. I would assume there would be some sort of elevator inside the mech, or maybe like in titan fall, the mech can pick you up and put you inside the cockpit.

[BurningCold]

@Dynamo Frokane I'm not going to argue because it's your roleplay and it's not that big of a deal, but I wish the size was listed from the start, because now I'm going to have to completely revisualize the mechs.

@BurningCold

noted, I'll keep it mind for the future

[Skepic]

So, I'm sort of waiting for totally-not-Jenson-from-Deus-Ex to post to allow him to respond to Alexi, but I can just go on ahead if everyone involved is okay with that. Ya know, just to get some movement going.

@Skepic

Oh my bad o.o I'll work on the post tonight ^^`

[FallenTrinity]

Started working on it. Should be up tomorrow night :)
