flashback to the mech hanger

*At the entrance to the walker hanger, a musculous guy is talking to one of the engineers. You can barely hear him saying anything though, and after a while he goes into the mech preparation hall with the engineer. The engineer returns a while later with a slug launcher to mount on his walker, a hummer with a light brown color. On the shoulders are two large paintings of a werewolf standing on its hind legs*

*Later, when you sit in the canteen, he walks up to your table.*

"Hey kids, so it's time for the test today they say. Ready for it?"

"Spark, when I was doing training sims as the op force, the mech pilots were complaining about me pulling off some damn good shots. It ain't just the tech that counts."

Would it be possible to find a <a href='http://world.guns.ru/assault/as21-e.htm' target='_blank'>FAMAS G2</a> at the ranch? Or a <a href='http://world.guns.ru/assaultas13-e.htm' target='_blank'>HK53?</a>

Being absolutely, strictly honest tanks are far superior at the same tech level as mechs unless there is a tech which only benifits walkers.

Alright, Bill, focus. In this RPG mechs>tanks. Remember it.

343_guilty_spark · January 2004

Your are all freaking Walker pilots !! Why would you have a freaking gun !! No, none of you have guns. It's almost 300 years in the future, why would they use old models ?

Bill grow up, it's a walker RPG. Go argue with the guys who came up the idea of Walkers in Star Wars if you must i don't really care if tanks are better than walkers.

xect · January 2004

Does it really matter? Let it drop. Sometimes tanks own, sometimes mechs step on them. Let it rest <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

*Lets out a loud laugh*
"Tank wipe out a walkie? Not on my run I tell you, not on my run."

343_guilty_spark · January 2004

"Oh hello Xect didn't see you come in, well Bill when we are out on a mission you'll see how fast tanks are wasted, so what weapon di you choose Xect?"

Yeah *cough*Titan*cough*

"Its exactly that sort of over-confidance which allowed the mech pilots to be taken down. Watch out for that. It may well get you killed. The best tank guns still hit hard despite being outdated.

As for the small arms, they'd be useful if I'd need to bail out. Mainly self defence, some usefullness in hunting.

P-Khan · January 2004

Well, the small arms I agree with Bill. It's like air force pilots. They have handguns in case they bail out

BTW, my combat suit would be a suit like the onse from Evagelion, but only grey

*Finally comes into the canteen*
"Hehe, sorry there guys, but couldn't stop admiring my mech"
*grabs some toasts and a cup of cofee*
"Hey, just wondering...."
*stuffs food in mouth and gobles it up*
"what you guys....."
*eats more*
"are talking about?"

Demiguise · January 2004

*goes back to sleep and dreams of a place where he could order parts*
mmmmmmm....command console.
*wakes up, Begins building a Console*

343_guilty_spark · January 2004

Yes you will be able to buy a survival kit incase you have to bail but you don't start with any guns.
Demi what kind of console are you building???

"Bill thinks tanks are better than Walkers, which strange seeing how he's in the Walker Corp. If you love tanks so much go and join the Tank.Corp."

Bill_Door · January 2004

"Not quite spark, but everyone seems to think they're a walkover. They're not, they still have some teeth."

xect · January 2004

"I know they're not a walkover. If they were a walkover you would have to waste power lifting your legs to walk over them <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />. But really, I don't know about you but I'm not gonna get my machine busted by some damn groundie. I can tell you, mechs own tanks, I have d ... have ... uhm ... seen it once."

*Looks like he loses himself to memories of something from his past*

"But anyway, we'll see about that. Let's turn to the machines. Quite good things, their engine systems are amazing. Always wanted to ride such a lively machine."

Demiguise · January 2004

*Finishes building the Screen. waits for order ,that he sent out today, to come.

I would like to build a Console that will enable us to buy things more quickly as we do not have one. Also you could make it into a Communication Array that can recieve orders and stuff <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

343_guilty_spark · January 2004

No you don't build a CC. You buy from shops and your in a base so yo uwon't need anythign besides there aren't any parts for you to use. Also some of you seem to be confused, to drive a mech you need a license thats why you signed up to the G.A.C to get one, also the water wars were in 2070 not 2300 so that makes some of you ancient.

*Raises a eyebrow at Xect but ignores what he said.*
"Well Bill if i ever buy a Jackal or a Pault i'll show you how weak tanks are when they are versing a mech with a thruster ability, the mech will thrust it's self out the way even before the shell has left the tank. I'm telling you now a experienced mech driver will own any tank, the only huge threat to a mech is a plane and a EMP bomb."
*Finishes up his breakfast and leans back in his chair staring at the clock in the canteen, he thinks for abit then annouces.*
"In 4 hours we will be getting our licenses so we may finally drive a mech for the first time and not in a crappy simulator."

Demiguise · January 2004

*puts down tools, goes to cafe to get summit to eat

Ok then No CC
Just wanted to do summit <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

p.s. Please have a look at my new RPG
SPACE-WARS

xect · January 2004

"Have any of you had a look at that engine system? That's good stuff, almost makes me want to take it apart to have a look at it. Might not be a good idea right before the license test though."

*finishes eating*

"How about we go for another look at them? Just to check out the cockpit you know"

P-Khan · January 2004

"Got that right Xect."
*finishes off with the toasts and starts to drink the coffee*
"Ya know, when we get our mechs, I want a booster for my engine. Go faster."
*takes a drink of coffee*
"Of course, I'll need to get some decent amount of money first...."

Nuub · January 2004

"I got a problem between slug and assault rifle, but think ill stick to assault rifle"
*Gets a cup of coffee at cafe and sits down to the table*

Argh, damn yellow so hard to see now <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' />

I'd say they've got some very good rejuvination processes then <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /> .
Ok, guess I'll scrap that bit of backstory.

"I'd like to see you try and dodge a mach 3 shell at 750 metres! Thats 2 and a bit seconds to reach you. Nothing accelerates that fast. Dodge the aim, not the bullet, my friend."
*Starts muttering to himself about bunnyhopping mech pilots and the annoyance they caused him in a tank.*

P-Khan · January 2004

Wrong post. Sorry

P-Khan · January 2004

"Well Bill, also consider one thing. It takes 3 seconds for a tank to aim properly at a still object. In 3 seconds, with a normal engine, you are already moving at 200km/h, and accelerating."
*drinks the coffee once again, and finally finishes it*
"Hey, does anyone here know where I can get a job, or something which gives money?"

xect · January 2004

*Turns to P-Khan*
"Really, if you boost that engine any further you'll end up blowing the thing apart. The engines already impress me, going any faster will kill it. Oh, and I thought the money was what were here for. Patience kid, can't be on jobs all the time."

Demiguise · January 2004

*Comes out of simulation pod after 3 hours training, goes back to sleep*

"Thats what I was saying. Don't let them get time to get an aimed shot off. Move and engage."

Demiguise · January 2004

*Wakes up realizing that we get our linsences soon. Grabs a wrench and begins looking over his mech to make sure that everything is in tip-top condition. Then begins Waxing*

343_guilty_spark · January 2004

"Bill how can Walkers jump ? Sure some can use jump packs but a constant hopping will break the legs, besides Walkers have much better sensors than tanks, so the Walkers always know where the tank is, then it's a simple case of a Reach bombing the tank, besides we can simply walk up to the tank cloaked and blast it with a slug thrower."

"Khan the corp gives us missions but they can't right now seeing how we aren't qualified, hey Xect what gun did you choose ?"

*Listens to nuub talk about what weapon to choose.*

"Well dual LMG would be handy seeing how these wimps using SA-800's are gonna run out of ammo to quickly."

"Yeah Xect is right, put a stronger engine in the Hummer and it'll overheat and melt, thats why Titans have the big engines, what i would do to ride in a Titan."

"Besides the mechs counter measures will probably kill the shell before it reaches you, what i'm trying to tell you Bill is Walkers are so high-tec they can pratically see into the future hehe, besides tanks equal cannon fodder it's those frigging planes that get you if you aren't careful."

BTW has anyone heard or talked to Epoch lately?

Demiguise · January 2004

* over hears the Conversation, "Sa-800's are good, you can take out people from long distances. It may have a small clip, but it aint gunna take that much to take out a tank. anyway, as soon as i find a better Sniper/Machine gun i am gunna buy it. Maybe a small pistol for my mech just in case."*

SOMEONE HELP ME IN MY RPG PLEASE?<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' />

Nuub · January 2004

"Yeah sure, ill be glad to change for LMG's to give some backup firepower when you guys are running away <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />"
*Finished the cup and goes to get a doughnut*
"Well, of course the tanks have sensors to see cloaked mechs, but their firepower/speed isnt enough to beat a mech on open ground. Tank might stand a chance if the mech is damaged from legs/engine/weapons or the tank is near good cover."

Hmph, wish they change the background to the dark blue soon.

ZeroByte · January 2004

Character Name: JL
Age: 19
Colour: Brown
Mech Name: Blight
Mech Colour: Brown
Logo: Gas Mask

Profile:
JL comes from the Philippines but little else is known about him, just like everyone else who survived the 7th coup d'etat, the bloodiest change of power the Philippines had seen, which caused much of the countries infrastructure to be brought down, including Central Records.

JL came to Saudi Arabia as a refugee when he was 16, making his way through life by using his broad knowledge of computers to conduct illegal activites. However, just one year later, one of his hacks brought him to the attention of the authorities, leading to him being made to choose between a prison sentence or a chance to serve in the G.A.C.

Faced between imprisonment and the chance to play around with some serious hardware, JL chose to serve in the G.A.C. His adeptness with computers and love of gaming allowed him to score high in the walker sims. JL is a bit of an introvert. Although he does joke around, he keeps mostly to himself and does not reveal much about his past.

Demiguise · January 2004

* Sees the New recruit coming in from teh Desert."hi there, names Demiguise, i am the crazy one round here." Finshes Waxing his mech and awaits his Lisence*

xect · January 2004

"Picked the slug, always liked the idea of blasting things that way. It's worked wonders before ... In the simulation you know."

*turns subject back to mech-tank debate.*

"Let me break something to you sparky. The tech systems on walkers aren't that superior. The same guys making walker systems do the same things to tanks. Those things are smaller, so they cloak better. They also have the advantage of speed, since bipedal accelleration is nowhere near as easy to maintain. Finally, their armor beats ours by far. What we have is manouverability, tactics and brains. Go for the brain game, it's the only way you survive out there. Don't trust your tech, trust yourself.

And for gods sake, don't try to walk cloaked right into those things. No cloaking can save you from those scanners, I can tell you that much. They know what will be hunting them, and they know how to stop it. Cloaking is practical, but remember: Play the brain game, you'll win that one because your 'chine lets you, while their 'chines limit their possibilities."

Mech Army.
