A Bright Dawn to Come (SRW/ME)

I will admit, I screamed when I saw Asuka.

I screamed like a little bitch.

Out of fear. Evangelion is like, one of the worst settings to get mixed up in.

She's cute, tho. Wonder if Six has any friends her age?

And...wow, the Turians have no idea of the bullet they dodged that Kyosuke and Excellen didn't bring their Personal Troopers, do they?

Hm... The Gundam's beams would be nice, as very little the Turians have could stop them, but i don't think they would matter too much unless he gets into battle with a Big Vehicle of some sort. Kinda concerned about his defensive capabilities, there, though. But if they somehow nullify the Beams or go into water, it's pretty fucked.

The Drache II is interesting, and I have a guilty pleasure for the Hammers (is it a Warhammer or a Gundam "Hammer", I.e. flail?) But that has absolutely nothing precise and relies solely on brute force and saturation fire, which might be an issue, and both of it's weapons are "physical", which...might be an issue, possibly?

The Gekka has the least range between them, but seems to have the best mobility with the Slash Harkens. The "hand gun" is basically an emergency sidearm, so it's main weapon would be the pretty nasty Katen which is...basically a Heat Sword, and fairly powerful. It is, however, likely to be the most fragile of the bunch, which isn't the best for an "Infighter" like it.

All have their advantages and weaknesses.
 
I find Michigan and Iguazu very fitting here, given that Augmented Humans/Human Plus in Armored Core are given the same name as Cyber Newtypes in Japanese - 強化人間 (Kyouka Ningen, lit. "Enhanced Human").

Unfortunately, Experiment 4 Unit 6-21 has only ever had the chance to speak with her batchmates prior to her rescue by Nightfall and his operator.

Completely unrelated, but Kyosuke and Excellen have developed a deep loathing for the BioNet and something referred to as the Type Acceleration Project
 
Michigan is amazing. I want to say Iguazu is ungrateful, but I know I'd also hate anyone that made me run that many shuttles. Here's hoping that somehow he becomes a training nut and starts to enjoy it.

It's so chubby we have to.

The mono eye and no color means he can paint it red later.

Truly Char is raveling in his grave when just about everyone wants to copy his color scheme.

I mean, most people hate their drill instructors I believe, it's kind of literally their job to make you hate them with a burning passion. Respect and obey is an entirely different question.

Let's face it: every super robot and their literal super robot dog has a beam rifle and an energy sword. Yawn.

I want a big menacing round boy of a bot with a CHAIN GUN and a SLEDGEHAMMER.
 
What can we/Iguazu have done for the weapons? Is he stuck with say, the hammer and chain gun if he picks the Drakken? Like- what should we expect from how he can evolve/change/upgrade his mech as it goes on?
For the immediate time being he's stuck with the weapons that he has, but once the human fleets start arriving he'll be able to start looking into getting new stuff
 
This is the best option I feel.

1, he is pretending to a Bright student, and they all learned mobile suits, if he can't pilot the mobile suit well first shot that's a way to have his cover blown. He'd probably want to avoid that. He can use getting used to an older non mobile suit Frame as an excuse.

2, it's got no paint, meaning he can personalize it later.

3, chain gun, just aim in the general direction and unload, no perfect aim necessary. Hammer, just Smash, no finesse of a blade.

4, the mono eye is cool, and the armor means can take more of a beating.
Some downsides of the chain gun:

3) A fifteen millimeter chain gun, assuming that's not a typo, is probably an extremely light weapon for mecha-scale combat. It's heavy enough to keep turian infantry suppressed and I doubt their infantry-scale barriers can take more than a very few hits, but it probably isn't going to meaningfully affect Mass Effect setting vehicles. Which means...

4) It's well armored, but it needs to be, because (see previous) from the sound of it, it has no particularly viable weapons except that big sledgehammer. So it's going to have to constantly get in close, rush targets that are firing heavy guns at it from close range, and often have to slow down near its target to avoid getting entangled with obstacles or terrain, which in turn lets other enemy units line up a shot on it.

Easy to get used to though I think.
Being on infantry suppression is not a bad beginner position, and we do know that upgrades will be made later on.
The problem is that Super Robot Wars, no one's going to look at a mecha with basically a glorified .50 caliber machine gun and an anti-mecha hammer and decide that the main weapon is the gun. So both our pilot's likely training and the orders likely given to him based on their past experience of mecha combat will result in this suit being treated as a melee brawler, I suspect.

Hence my voting for the downrated Gundam.

However, the current conflict matters, and in this conflict the Turians should mainly have infantry type units not vehicles planet side.

Whoops, that is supposed to be 30mm, not 15.

That is fixed now.
 
without putting them in danger of being attacked ass they move
:V

The world's oceans didn't turn red during he Decade of Doom, so it's probably just a faceclaim from a mecha franchise that's not in this crossover tangle.
Type Acceleration Project
The name sounds like just regular Newtypes but developing faster, but any project that has experimental children with serial numbers and no actual names deserves some adoption by right of conquest done to them.

The Turians might still be that ignorant. :p

Could still be Eva TV, although 'Six's' behavior doesn't match up with that Asuka, and none of them are notably psychic. If that is a young miss Soryu or Shikinami, there's some SRW0 tier hinky bullshit going on with character combination.

(And I'd have used one of the girls from Eureka 7 if we were actually combining characters here rather than just using a faceclaim).

Okay, well, 30mm weapons, assuming roughly conventional chemical-fired ammunition, are definitely a lot more dangerous to things like light armored vehicles, so the mecha would be at least moderately effective against light armored vehicles. Still problematic against actual tanks and stuff, of course, but that means we'd at least be sort of useful without the hammer.

Given that she's a clearly traumatized redhead with blue eyes and looks like someone's been doing mad science on her, she's probably a Ple clone. :p

Well yes, but we aren't gonna be taking orders from the turians, now are we?

Oooh,
Honestly not very familiar with Bionet or GGG so a lot of that is flying over my head xjsng

Hrm, I wonder how that jealousy Iguazu has for Six will go here instead? Maybe this time they can actually be friendly instead of a one-sided hate-crusade lmao

Oh! There we go, I was wondering why it was so small- the next chain gun is the Gundam's 60mm vs 15mm, so that was a big discrepancy- if it was on the Gekka I wouldn'thave been too surprised

Got it, outta curiosity is Kyousuke's Nightfall part of a successor series to the Drache? He might have advice for him in using that- can it use or be specced to use a Beam weapon later? Like a beam chaingun?

Actually- how does one describe how he fights? I've fought him like over 30 or 40 times and I don't know if I know the words to describe it; in-game he's got a linear rifle (skirmishing to long range), pulse shield (more useful vs other players than in PvE but it might be especially helpful here if he ever has that kinda loadout), machine gun and a missile launcher- then he's not entirely unfamiliar with sweeping melee attacks later on, hrm,

So I guess- what's the word? Skirmishing? Medium-close range fighting? Not notably speed or dodge-oriented (midweight), definitely doesn't go down without at least trying to swing-

So I guess I'm voting for "soften up with a barrage as he charges in for a big swing" Drache II? Assuming his tendencies in-game even remotely translate here anyways

Decided to look at Celest's morale line...

[Jk]I am now concerned she isn't a Whispered... I'm concerned she's a Spark![/Jk]

Let's just hope she isn't a Heterodyne.
Might be fun lmao-
But anycase reaching out more might be a thing to do later- eh, when things come to it, hopefully they'll have time to be cute together later XD
