Iron Dragon vs. The World! (Pacific Rim/Godzilla Parody Quest)

[Portec]

That's now two people agreeing with me on the shield plates.

Anyways, I agree with Portec's plan, with the obvious requirement of changing Mark .74' repairs with something else.
*snip*
Bolded the change I made. ups the resource price from 7200 to 7500, so we'll be a tad strapped for metaphorical cash but maybe we'll see if we can stockpile resources these next few rounds.

As for where to go with our Jaegers? Kiryu in movie was a capable combatant at all ranges. Now that any missile packs we get for him will actually be WORTH SOMETHING he'll be even more terrifying. However if we focus on his ranged stat completely he'll start getting screwed over if bigger Kaiju (coughCat Vcough) rush him down.

Yukon's getting by so far with a pretty low speed. Hell, it's only recently that we were able to get him to start actually RUNNING. So... Mighty Glacier build for him? (not very fast but hell of a good defense with decent offensive stats so he doesn't just kinda sit there?) We can compensate for this in our formations by dropping Brawler Yukon off closer to the fight so that our Jaegers meet the enemy at approximately the same time.

Hagane meanwhile, since we've already poured all of his abilities into Melee on creation, should stay that way because we're already so heavily invested as Portec said. But while Yukon is slugging it out with Kaiju, Hagane should/will be dashing around, latching on to priority targets of opportunity via Grappling. This allows our Bio-Jaeger to also be Melee centric while also still being relevant, as he can serve as a single target Crowd Control machine. Kaiju that are grappling with him can't easily engage in combat with other jaegers. Further more he can peel Kaiju off any Jaeger that get's critically damaged with that same grappling ability, potentially saving the mech and its pilots' lives.

In short:

Kiryu: Jack of all Stats, Master of None

Brawler Yukon: Melee Tank with maybe splash of Range

Hagane Arashi: Melee Disabler via Grapple (As explained above could save lives and pin down priority targets, especially if he uses a point to Expose his target to a barrage from friendlies)

Click to shrink...

Melee Tank build. Completly forgotten that option.

First order is bringing all of our jeager to Thougness 3. They need to be able to handle a few blows.
Hagane is fast but Rocket Booster would be a nice addition. Improvements go into HtH and Strength. Dexterity should be increased to 2 or 3 as well.
Yukon would do with an overhaul of its ranged weapons. With Ranged 1 The Rocket Tubes still have d10-1. A ranged weapon that would get bonus out of something else than Range would be nice. Focus on HtH, Strength (For Carparence Armor or similar) and Dexterity to for hopefull ability to block attacks (ranged and close) with shields.

Question for @Fyrstorm. How big is the baby Kaiju and how accustomed is it to being around humans?

 

[AbZHz101]

What the hell does Dex do anyway? I've looked throughout the combat rules posted during Cherno and all I can find is that it modifies damage done by thrown range weapons.

Is that seriously it? If so, we can probably ignore it for now.

Also would still like a chest cannon for Higane at some point. As I've stated before I believe the Murder Glomp is the right of all semi-biological Jeager.

Murder Glomp is a good idea. We can invest into researching something suitable at a later date. Increasing resources and jeager stats is more important at the moment as far as I see it.

You are right that Dex does not really do anything if you read through the rules. Our GM has been notiefied of this and brewed together some additional uses.

Hand to Hand: Used in all close combat situations (attack, block, parry, start grapple, avoid grapple) except dodge and ongoing grapple.
Ranged: Bonus to attack dice with ranged. May give bonus to damage with ranged weapons as well (decided by weapon).
Strength: Bonus to ongoing grapple dice. Bonus to damage in close combat when specified by attack.
Toughness: I don't know. Indirectly compiles to make Durability and Structure.
Agility: 3+ This = Movement speed. Bonus to dice while dodging.
Dexterity: Bonus to dice for throwing stuff, manipulating things, holding items, anything that requires fine hand movement. Sometimes also used in grapples.

Click to shrink...

There are as well requirements for equipment. The Carparence Hull need Str3 or the Underwater Pistol need Dex2 to be used.
Than it is used for scanning actions (which we have never used exept passive to find kaju while underwater).
Dexterity can be seen as a stat that is used when all other seem inappropriate.

Is this correct @Fyrstorm ?
And some other stuff:

1. In the jeager doc is missing how many points Hagane can have before the need of a new reactor comes up. I am afraid it is 12.
   
2. You have stated that should Yukon get over 12 it will get automatically Kiryus old reactor to reach a max of 15. That is still correct?
3. In the Jeager Doc '74 has still 4 Strikes.
4. And would it be posible to develop this?

The speed of stat improvements is tied to the high of the state.

1. 0 to 1 cost 5
2. 10
3. 15
4. 20
5. 25
6. 30

What mark a jeager (or which category a kaiju) is is tied to the sum of stat points.

1. Cat1 Jeager up to 10 points
2. Cat2 Jeager up to 15 points
3. 20
4. 25
5. 30

Doing the math '74 has 21 stat points and is a Cat4 Jeager.

 

[AbZHz101]

*Numbers*

Click to shrink...

That is completely perpendular to what I was saying. Hagane's Upgrades in each stat are the equivalent to one rank lower than what a normal Jeager would have at that rank.

Example:
Kiryu Hand to Hand: 3. To get that to 4 requires 20 upgrades.
Hagane Hand to Hand: 4. To get that to 5 requires 20 upgrades.

And this is consistant with all of Hagane's stats. 0 need 5 instead of 10.

What I am wondering is if this holds true for any other Bio-Jeager we might make or if it is something unique to Hagane.

Upgrading Kiryus Ranged is kind of pointless as well. It has 5, its ranged weapon hits on 5 and get +2.
Kiryu add per ranged attack 7 to the thrown dice.
The lowest possible throw is 2 (because 1 will always miss).
2+7 = 9 - 3 (called shoot) is 6.
Kiryu can already shoot out its opponent eyes. We just have never done so or forgotten to call shoots.

I asked if the Jeager needed a dead body or a living one, Kiryu or Eva. He said Eva.

Also if we do mess around with turning corpses into Jeagers we might get slammed with a curse for disturbing the bones of the dead, like Toho!Japan did when they made Kiryu.

How alive is a kaiju after getting hit with AZC? Because that is the KBCS. It hits what is inside constantly with something similar to the AZC to keep it from decaying. It is its main function.

As far as I'm aware the AZC has always been fatal when used.

Edit: Then again, the AZC is supposed to freeze something to the point where it will literally crumble to pieces (Godzilla survived it because firing it in water is actually a VERY BAD IDEA)

It's based off of the tech in the AZC. It isn't firing an AZC at the thing and hoping for the best/admiring the new statue. Or right now, it might be.

Sending someone into a "cold coma" is something normal doctors can do but it isn't used frequently and is a delicate and expensive procedure. It also proves that it can be done to warm blooded animals.

Cold blooded animals become sluggish and lethargic in refrigeration. To a much larger degree than warm bloods.

So if a Kaiju is either cold or warm blooded (more than likely warm blooded based on where they appear) we can take a living one, and in theory put it on ice, and later revive it, and it's been alive the entire time.
