Valiant 96 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 We are still a little short of the minimum number of players but let's kick start the discussions. With something concrete, we might be able to attract more players to join in. Here's the roster based on the interest check thread: Valiant @Acidic @Saigō_Slade @FrostyFoster Timeline We have a rather large range of times to choose from. I will use the standard Gundam Canon as the reference for what's the canon timeline we are looking at. We can set the RP between or during these following conflicts. I have added my comments regarding the times. Pre-OYW - primitive mecha, but there's the Zeon rise and internal conflict One Year War - Federation vs Zeon; In-fighting between the Zabis Post-OYW - Gryps Conflict, Titans vs AEUG vs Zeon remnants vs Axis Zeon <-- this throws the conflict wide open, especially if Axis comes in earlier. First Neo Zeon War - AEUG vs Axis Zeon Between the Neo Zeon Wars - we can remove Char and have Neo Zeon regroup under a different leader, perhaps one that isn't bent on causing nuclear winter, but what fun is there? Second Neo Zeon War - Londo Bell vs Neo Zeon <-- given that this conflict is also known as Char's Rebellion, it's hard to cover this without him as a central figure. LaPlace Incident - Mecha is too advanced and I would prefer not to do this. Alternatively, instead of starting from a point in time and then overwriting the events that happened after, we can do side stories that go along with the main timelines. Doing so would open up a lot of opportunities to go parallel with the events, with canon events acting as progression points we can move along. Thoughts? Maybe we can share our UC familiarity to see what's the better place to set the RP in.

FrostyFoster 474 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I am very familiar with UC. I've seen everything from MSG to Unicorn multiple times. I think doing side stories that go along with the main timeline might be easier, but the "What If" stuff where canon events change might be more fun. I'm new to this stuff, so whatever everyone else decides on, I'll be fine with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it'll be more fun with original content, but it also needs to be relatively easy for new players to join and integrate. We just need to weigh the pros and cons. I'd love to hear what the others on the list think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acidic 40 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Any time pre unicorn would be fine with me. After Unicorn newtypes are suddenly magical and its kinda weird. Any of the Zeon wars would be fun to have a side story in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostyFoster 474 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I think we should do side stories during the One Year War. A lot happened during it and I think it would easy for new players to create their own Federation or Zeon squads. Maybe we can do canon changes after the OYW ends if people want to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there fighting in Russia and/or Alaska during the OYW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only clip that involves winter fighting. An Arctic side story would be great to RP because there wouldn't be much interference from other things that happened during the OYW. I vote for this too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of room during Gryps Conflict and the First Neo Zeon War to play with. My suggestion is to do post Gryps Conflict. Here's an idea: the Earth Federation recovering from internal strife with the downfall of Titans. Neo Zeon drops a colony on Dublin and begins a full scale invasion of Earth. Meanwhile, Titans remnants continue to engage AEUG forces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that place. 19 hours ago, Valiant said: There's a lot of room during Gryps Conflict and the First Neo Zeon War to play with. That sounds like it could work! I'd like an interesting environment (Arctic, Desert, Tropical Islands, my mom's house) to add onto that because most of the Gundam series I've watched touch and go on Earth (I know about the spin offs I just haven't watched them).

Valiant 96 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Dublin is canon. We could have a balance between Earth and space. Looking forward to comments from @Saigō_Slade and @FrostyFoster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to comments from @Saigō_Slade and @FrostyFoster We could do that. It does give us a lot of different options with factions and stuff like that. Plus, I'm a big fan of Zeta so it'll be cool to use those mobile suits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roromi 437 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I might be interested in joining. Depends on the setting and what not. My UC knowledge isn’t as great as CE but I might be able to work a character into something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valiant 96 Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 This narrows it down to UC 0088, right after Gryps Conflict when the First Neo Zeon War started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostyFoster 474 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I've done some research and found what grunt suits we should be using at the beginning. They're weaker mass production suits that I think every faction would have tons of. A.E.U.G. https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/MSA-003_Nemo https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-099_Rick_Dias (This one is powerful, but it's still a grunt suit. I don't know if we should use it at the beginning.) https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-179_GM_II Karaba https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RGM-86R_GM_III Earth Federation https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-179_GM_II https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-106_Hizack https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-117_Galbaldy_β Titans Remnants https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-106_Hizack https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-108_Marasai https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RMS-154_Barzam (also powerful.)

Valiant 96 Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Let's get this going. With the Earth Federation reeling from the destruction of the Titans, the AEUG forces had to deal with the Zeon presence in the Earth Sphere. We will start with AEUG and Neo Zeon as playable factions. Here's the brief directions for the factions. More details will be supplied to the factions later on. AEUG - wants to establish peace between the Earth and Spacenoids in the Earth Sphere Neo Zeon - wants to regain Zeon territories and unite Spacenoids in the Earth Sphere Choose your sides: Valiant - Neo Zeon @Roromi - Earth Federation attached to AEUG? This is based on your feedback on Discord @Acidic @Saigō_Slade @FrostyFoster Please help to spread word of this RP so we can have more players to make this RP grow.

FrostyFoster 474 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I'll be apart of the A.E.U.G. Also, I'd recommend posting on the Gundam subreddit when the RP starts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roromi 437 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I just wanna be part of the federation occupying force. It’s basically gonna be 3 way right? Federation vs AEUG vs Neo Zeon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
