Rawl.

HighEndNoob
Pierre Berguard [8]: Vlad seems to be throwing a hissy, so you go see what's wrong.
"What happened to you?"
"Bastards see me soon as I hop in the turret, shot me to hell. Damnit."
"Huh. How many are there?"
"Three mediums, all high-end looking bastards. One has a bigass cannon for an arm."

Abilities:
Inventory:

Conditions:


Tomaster
Vladimír Shurla [9]: Pierre walks over, interested in you raging.
"What happened to you?"
"Bastards see me soon as I hop in the turret, shot me to hell. Damnit."
"Huh. How many are there?"
"Three mediums, all high-end looking bastards. One has a bigass cannon for an arm."

You decide that sitting around moping isn't gonna help. Maybe you can go get in your mech, it was just in for recalibration and restocking ammo. You head back out into the Mecha Bay, leaving Pierre behind, and see your mech at the end of the row. The missile pod is clearly empty, but there's no cables or anything hooked up to the cannons, so you figure they must have finished recalibrating em. And hey, there's even a cart parked in front of it!
Abilities:
Inventory:
- Field Medical Kit
- Field Repair Kit
- 9mm Glock
Conditions:


Roast Veg
Aark-han [4]: You continue your climb up the ramp, reaching the top quickly. Upon walking up past the lip of the opening, a loud boom fires across the deck, and something slams into your mecha's left shoulder. You stumble backwards, almost falling over, but luckily JJ's quick thinking pushes you back upright. You walk up onto the deck and behind one of the huge steel doors for cover.
"Dayum, what the hell was that?"

Amazigh
"Amazigh" [5]: "Okay... that went a whole lot worse than I could of expected... Hey, you look important, do you know where my mech, Barbaroi, is?"
"Hell if I know. Try asking Erroni, she's in charge around here. Might wanna put your shirt on first though..."

No ♥♥♥♥. Well that was helpful.
Abilities:

Inventory:

JJA79
James Argus [5]: You finally reach the top behind the Van Han. You're surprised when a shot hits it in the arm before he can even get out of the damn bay, but you manage to put your mecha's arm out and stop it before it falls. Good thing you're in biped mode, or else that would've been messy. You pilot your mech over to behind one of the big metal blast doors for cover. Those bastards have some BIG guns.

Tokochiro
John Kosloswa [4-1=3]: "This little girl here sure gets angry for someone her size"
You notice someone important looking walking by, so you go up to him for help.
"Hey, you have any idea where my mech is? It's kinda chameleon-y?"
"No, I don't know where anyone's mechs are! Jesus, people need to stop asking me! Why would I know, go ask Erroni, dammit!"

;__;
Abilities:
Inventory:
- Field Medical Kit
- Field Repair Kit
- 9mm Glock
Conditions:


Game Events: Up on deck, the standoff continues. It looks like the enemies aren't really attacking, more of waiting for someone to come out from behind cover so that they can shoot them. Aark wonders why the one with the bigass cannon doesn't just shoot through the cover that they're hiding behind. He's certainly got enough gun to do so.

I'll whip up a map for the top of the Exoneration in a second.
Shitty map is go.

Man, what would I have done in this kind of situation?

Afterall, I would already know where my mech is, since my character IS the mech.

Whut? Caek, you need to have a real pilot.

Glowstick, a few things.
Your EM Combat Rifle IS a railgun.
The shoulder mounted rail cannon, ok. The virus it launches, not gonna happen. So many reasons it won't work. So, so many.

Post Re: Roll to Dodge - Mecha
Yeah basically. Albeit with a fancy name. I was thinking somewhere along the lines of using a magnet system to propel stuff Machine-gun esque, but without the piercing power of a standard railgun. Essentially a magnetic assault rifle. if thats uncool I'll just make it a rifle of some-sort. Alright, Thats fine with me. Can I buff the shoulder a little if the virus needs to go? Explosive rounds maybe?

Grah. I don't think you guys understand the concept of railguns properly.
They are meant to hit ♥♥♥♥ hard, once. It takes a ridiculous amount of electricity to fire even a smaller projectile, but it fires it very ♥♥♥♥ fast, making up for the smaller projectile size with speed (higher speed combined with smaller surface area also means more penetration). You don't make a full automatic, 600 RPM rail-machinegun, you make a single action 6 RPM Rail-Sniper Rifle. Heat is also a major problem for railguns, so using them multiple times in succession could literally cause the rails to melt.

TL;DR if you want a gun that goes ratatatata, just get a goddamn gun. If you want the best sniper rifle in the world, get a railgun. Otherwise, just get a gun.

Haha I understand how railguns work, I just wasn't sure what the exact tech limitations are considering were driving miniaturized fusion reactors. But sniper rifles fine with me, whatever works .

But earlier you did not mention that, even when I first PMed you the character sheet or when I posted it twice in this thread. The only comment you ever mentioned was that I would need a physical object for when everyone goes inside a building, which is what that small detachable robot is for.

Do you not realize the inherent silliness of everyone else having pilots and you having a robot? The reason a pilot would be necessarily is because remote control and AI aren't sufficiently advanced yet.
♥♥♥♥ A. Let's rock some ♥♥♥♥.
Hop up into my Mecha. Run diagnostics after booting to make sure my railguns are properly calibrated.

Then I got caught up in other things or whatever. You still need a human pilot.
