GBN 1.8 Gunpla Battle Nexus 1.8 | OOC

[Replicator 98]

Year 20XX. People around the world have taken to building and customizing their very own Gunpla (Gundam Plastic Models) as the world's #1 hobby. In Gunpla Battle Nexus Online, a Virtual Reality MMORPG which is often touted as ''the next-generation hobby attraction'', users from all around the world turn into Mobile Suit pilots (also known as Divers) by scanning their Gunpla and uploading their data to the game, allowing them to pilot their dream machine.

As if the content added by the game's administrators wasn't enough, they notice a wealth of very well made custom campaigns, individual missions and machines, made by experienced Divers with a knack for making their own original content. To acknowledge the newly formed modding community, they prepare Update 1.8, also known as the Community Update, where popular stages and campaigns can be submitted for the administrators' Endorsement, bestowing upon them the ability of giving clear rewards to the Divers who complete them, and where popular Gunpla builds can now be encountered as rare NPDs (Non-Player Divers), with either the personality of their Creator, or that of an existing Gundam character...

However, despite being nearly complete, Update 1.8 hasn't been actually released to the public, and is now on one of the final stages: playtesting and polishing. This is the story of a group of beta testers from all over the country, which team up to tackle one of the most ambitious campaigns bundled with the update...

Gunpla Sheet

To help everyone understand the machines each other made, and to establish what they can and cannot do, players MUST reply to this post with their own sheet to play. One sheet will be made per machine. For making sheets for new machines or upgrades to previous Gunpla, edit your original post and add the new sheet under that of your previous machine.

IMPORTANT: Players can give their Gunpla a secret system of any kind, but they must add "REDACTED" in all-caps under "Special Abilities/Features", and run their idea by the Game Master for approval.

Aida's Gunpla Collection

#1 - RGM-86J Airbatel GM / RGM-86J+FXA-05J Super Airbatel GM

Base Unit: RGM-86 GM III / FXA-05D G-Defenser

Operator: Aida

A Gunpla made as a joint effort between the hobby shop's builder and painter, it stands as a testament of their combined craftsmanship for users of GBN to behold, while customers get to gawk at a sister unit that has had its internals removed for public display. Based in the GM III, it is geared towards performance in medium to close range combat, making use of its Shot Lancer for high-speed impalement or physical damage at a high rate of fire. It also features a pair of elven-looking antennae that augment the operating perimeter of the radio transmitter and receiver. However, its stellar function is the ability to dock with a back support craft known as the GM-Defenser, featuring twin beam cannons and a simple atmospherical flight transformation, along with increased mobility in MS mode. After a decent, but unsatisfactory performance on the first mission of the campaign, Aida and the shop’s builder begin an upgrade plan for it to catch up to the enemy machines and challenges of every mission, aptly named the Airbatel Development Plan.

Defensive Systems: Conventional Materials - Lightweight armor, good mobility.

Special System: EXAM System - Increases speed, thruster output and decreases reaction times by disabling every safety limiter in the unit. However, this causes the systems to overheat, eventually exploding if EXAM isn't safely disabled. Safe deactivation reboots every system in the MS and leaves it immobile.

Melee Weapons: Shot Lancer - A weapon able to pierce heavy armor when colliding at high speeds, it saves up space and effective carrying weight by being both a melee and a ranged weapon. It was taken from a 1/100 Den’An’Zon, and modified to be used by the 1/144 Hyaku Shiki arms. It also has the capacity of being carried by the GM-Defenser to allow Airbatel to use a 90mm bullpup machine gun when not in Super Airbatel form.

Beam Saber - Standard Mobile Suit weapon, offers exceptional cutting power at the cost of power consumption. Two units are housed in the back skirt piece as a backup melee system.

Projectile Weapons: Shot Lancer - A weapon able to fire shells automatically for dealing physical damage with a high rate of fire, but limited ammunition. It saves up space and effective carrying weight by being both a melee and a ranged weapon. It was taken from a 1/100 Den’An’Zon, and modified to be used by the 1/144 Hyaku Shiki arms. It is usually stowed away on the GM-Defenser when said support craft is not in use, to be used as a horn the craft can ram into Mobile Suits with, but it can be taken away and used while apart from the craft too.

90mm Bullpup Machine Gun - A bullpup machine gun originally used by the first GMs, it was added by the Airbatel Development Plan. Airbatel sorties with it when not using the GM-Defenser and its enlarged Shot Lancer. Compact but effective, it deals physical damage and can provide cover fire. While useful at covering for the Shot Lancer when the Defenser is using it to impale enemies, it can also be switched and carried away by the support craft if the Airbatel needs the Lancer more.

60mm Vulcan Gun (x2) - Part of the Airbatel Development Plan, they’re operative only since Airbatel’s second sortie. A standard armament of mobile suits that belong to or descend from the Earth Federation Forces's RX series, this pair of head-mounted shell firing weapons have a high-rate of fire, but little power and are generally ineffective against mobile suits. However, they can damage lightly armored areas such as the sensors, and are ideal for shooting down small, lightly armored targets such as missiles, personnel or small vehicles.

Shield: Physical Shield (GM Command) - Reliable shield found on and taken from a 0083 GM Command, it has been given anti-beam coating as per standard procedure to allow Airbatel to resist a measure of beam damage with it.

Power system: Battery Pack - A lightweight power solution for greater mobility but limited supply, it was taken from an unidentified SEED unit's Mission Pack.

Special Abilities/Features: FXA-05J GM-Defenser - A support craft that is able to dock with the Airbatel, granting it extra propulsion in MS mode and the name of Super Airbatel, along with a very simplistic MA mode for cruising at high speeds and evading enemy fire. It includes powerful twin beam cannons, along with its own battery pack, taken from a SEED unit's Mission Pack. This allows the craft to fire its cannons a finite amount of times before having to put strain on the Airbatel's battery. A feature added by the Airbatel Development Plan is an alternate operative mode. When separate from Airbatel, it can act as a scout unit, controlled by Aida to survey distant areas, or use the Shot Lancer mounted on its front to ram and impale enemy Mobile Suits or aircraft, along with the usual dual beam cannons.

Name of the unit: Zero Savior Gundam

Base original design: ZGMF-X23S Saviour Gundam

Name of the operator: Marco Creed

The Zero Savior is Marco’s mash up of the Saviour Gundam with aspects of the Gundam Epyon. While the chassis is largely unchanged from the original Saviour it does have a noticeable difference in the beam rifle being replaced by Epyon’s beam sword. Two of the “super fortis” canons were removed in order to conserve power for the beam sword, as well as reduce weight. The two shoulder mounted beam sabers have been swapped out for additional thrusters instead. The “soul” as Marco puts it, is heavily influenced by Epyon with the addition of the Zero System. The Zero Saviour was intended to be used as high speed attack unit with high output, but risky drawbacks from high power consumption.

#1 – RX-179 Beta Gundam

Base Unit: RX-179 Beta Gundam

Operator (Diver Name): Hikaru Hiyashi

The Beta Gundam, in lore, is an upgraded and improved Refined Barzam built by the Federation after the fall of the Titans as a weapons testbed as well as a possible option for using hardware that was otherwise stigmatized by its association with the Titans. This was a similar concept to how some normal Barzams became the MSA-008 Bar-GM. It was called Beta Gundam because it was considered the realization of the Gundam Mk-II's potential, whose start preceded the Gamma Gundam (Rick Dias) and similarly named projects at the time.  Employing the Gundarum Gamma alloy that seemed to be ubiquitous in high-end products of the era, the machine boasts high durability as well as enhanced thrusters and verniers to improve its agility and speed. It boasts reverse compatibility with the Gundam Mk-II's and Refined Barzam's large array of equipment, with the addition of added hardpoints to become even more versatile. The rumor goes that this machine was also used to test new weapon ideas via its hardpoints rather than to make a dedicated machine for such purposes.

In actuality, the Beta Gundam was built by Hikaru because he didn't know what to expect in GBN Online and wanted an adaptable machine he could tailor to his own needs and developing style.

Structural Defense: Gundarium Gamma Alloy - well balanced endurance, at the cost of weighing down the unit.

Special System: INCOM System – modified to allow for advanced fire control with compatible hardpoints, not yet able to execute all-range attacks. Somewhat burdensome, but less than funnels.

FXA-05E G-Defenser – modified G-Defenser that can fly as a Mobile Armor while the Beta Gundam is docked and also operate via remote control, serving the same role as the Back Weapons System of the Re-GZ series. It can adopt the Beta Gundam's shield as a crude fuselage, and also has a Linear Rifle that doubles as an electromagnetic field emitter to alter the machine's aerodynamics to improve flight characteristics. It is also compatible with Gundam Mk-II, Refined Barzam, Nemo, and GM-III inspired systems, albeit password protected. Remotely controlling the machine while controlling the Gundam is difficult.  It is possible to hand control of the G-Defenser over to another pilot and control it via a secondary cockpit in the G-Defenser or a jump seat in the Beta Gundam.

FXA-00 Flying Armor – A re-entry capable flying armor based on the Zeta Gundam's waverider mode, this functions much like a Dodai or Base Jabber in allowing non-transformable Mobile Suits to fly. Unfortunately, this particular unit is unarmed. It is chiefly retained for the benefit of allies for them to use as needed.

Melee Weapons:.

2 x A・E-Br・G-Sc-L Beam Saber - standard mobile suit weapon, offers exceptional cutting power at the cost of power consumption; small enough for multiple housings on the unit.

Saber Claw (Arm Hardpoint) - Arm-mounted hardpoint with two Beam Sabers pointing forward over the back of the wrist, connected at the base. Used for slashing at foes as well as catching and parrying enemy blades. Has exceptional cutting power at the cost of power consumption.

Heat Saber Type 2 (G-Defenser Armament/Handheld) - Taken from an MS-09B Dom, the Heat Saber is an effort to better resist Mobile Suits that have an anti-beam defense.  It was chosen for its high length compared to its weight.  It is typically stored on the pylon opposite and mirroring the Beam Smart Rifle.

Projectile Weapons:

2 x VCU-505EX-V・B/Ver.012 Vulcan Gun (+ 4 in G-Defenser) - Head-mounted CIWS guns for shooting down missiles and unarmored targets. Not very effective against Mobile Suit armor. 700 rounds per gun.

(BOWA) XBR-M87A2 Beam Rifle (Long Beam Saber) – A beam rifle with a Long Beam Saber mode which is normally found on the Zeta Gundam, intended to be a better match for the increased reactor output of the model. Can deal high energy damage at the cost of power consumption and rate of fire. Can mount on side skirt armor, backpack, or side of G-Defenser when not in use. Shield carries two spare energy packs.

AE/ZIM.C-BAZ-531 Clay Bazooka – Can launch various types of ammunition including immobilizing adhesive shells or explosive shells at the expense of very limited ammo. 7+1 rounds, can be stored on rear skirt armor or on side of G-Defenser when not in use. Extra or different types of rounds can replace an E-Pac slot on the shield.

2 x Point Defense Beam Gun (Hip Hardpoints) - INCOM-controlled hip-mounted point defense turrets to improve the machine's ability to respond to threats at almost any angle. The INCOM system is used not for all-range deployment, but simply controlling the axes of movement by thought to trim response time. Comparable to a lower powered Beam Rifle, capable of destroying or damaging a Mobile Suit at the cost of power consumption.

2 x 4 tube Grenade Racks (Hip Hardpoints) – Each hip can hold a 4-tube grenade rack similar to those of the RGM-89 Jegan's three tube models. These can be used to attack enemy targets with explosive damage. They can be shot down, and it is also possible for them to damage the very machine that threw them if the pilot is careless.

Long Smart Rifle (G-Defenser Armament/Handheld) - High energy weapon with high power draw and limited shots; can deal massive damage. Typically equipped when the G-Defenser is attached.  Employs Beam Smart Gun functionality using Quasi-Psycommu System to support aiming and a barrel that uses an I-field to curve the shot up to 30 degrees off-axis for last-moment aim correction.  Has a two-pronged fold-out shield with supplemental sensor elements to assist in aiming computation.

120mm Linear Rifle (G-Defenser Armament/Handheld) - Linear Rifle with one 120mm barrel based on that of the SVMS-01 Union Flag.  This is stored on the G-Defenser's centerline under its mounted shield 'fuselage'.  It is used not only as an alternative to beam weapons, but also to provide an electromagnetic field that is used to support aerodynamics to improve flight characteristics.  It was chosen over more powerful options for its lower weight and mass while still assisting with the performance in flight mode.

2 x 14 tube Missile Pods (G-Defenser Armament) - Dual 14 tube missile pods are located in the G-Defenser's armament units, and can be used to attack enemy targets with explosive damage. They can be shot down, and it is also possible for them to damage the very machine that launched them if the pilot is careless.

Shield:

RX・M-Sh-VT/S-001 Shield (Arm Hardpoint) – Standard Gundam Mk-II shield with anti-beam coating and a viewport, carries two spare E-Pacs for Beam Rifle.

CIWS Shield (Arm Hardpoint) – Shield with two E-pacs, anti-beam coating, and a viewport, with CIWS on either side of the viewport for simultaneous defense and light attack.

Missile Shield (Arm Hardpoint) - Shield with anti-beam coating and a pair of missiles that launch out from underneath the shield.  Less durable than normal shields.

Composite Shield (Arm Hardpoint) - Shield with anti-beam coating on surface and a beam shield underneath its surface layer.  Can toggle plasma on and off for contained I-field only or Beam, latter allows for a beam cutting edge and "Beam Lance" mode if desired.  Has viewport with CIWS on either side and two E-Pacs on rear.  Can attach to G-Defenser as well as either arm.

Power System:

Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor - offers unparalleled power at the cost of expense and environmental danger if damaged. Fusion is not hindered by N Jammers like fission is.

Special Abilities/Features:

Can use hardpoints and existing Gundam Mk-II equipment for a vast array of configurations.

 

#2 – MS-14JR Regelg R

Base Unit: MS-14JR ReGelg R

Operator (Diver Name): Hikaru Hiyashi, Nana Hiyashi/Puru Seven, Ellen Hiyashi/Puru Eleven, Puru Clones

Built from a MS-14BR Gelgoog High Mobility R Type, the MS-14JR ReGelg R has more mobility and acceleration than the standard ReGelg. Its thrusters and other systems have been rebuilt to be more modern to help compensate for the added fuel that would otherwise be required by the machine. The lore is that its relatively low cost (being based on an existing unit), the skills its weapons help build, and its profile make it a good trainer for the Puru clones before they are assigned their Qubeley Mass Production Types. Its Wing Binders, thruster placement, and its propellant tanks all help give it a shape and flight characteristics similar to the Qubeley, even if inferior in several respects.

Structural Defense:

Titanium Alloy Composite - offers lighter armor weight for greater mobility, with no added benefit.

Special System:

Magnetic Coating - offers exceptional mobility at the cost of being harder to control.

Forearm Modules - allows for the swapping of forearm armaments to improve versatility at the cost of increased weight. Arms are faster for melee if the modules are omitted or ejected.

2 x External Propellant Tank: The external propellant tanks used by the ReGelg as well as the Gelgoog Marine are also used by the ReGelg R. In addition to extending its operating time, they serve to make the ReGelg R's flight characteristics, shape, and profile a closer match to the Qubeley. As such, pilots practicing for the more powerful machine may retain the tanks even if they are unnecessary. The downside, however, is that a lucky shot can detonate the propellant tank if it isn't empty when struck.

Melee Weapons:

2 x Beam Lancer - Much like a Beam Saber, it offers exceptional cutting power at the cost of power consumption. The ends can be merged together into a single double-ended blade, but this requires more skill to wield.

Beam Naginata - a double-ended beam saber with two ends, much like the combined Beam Lancer but a solid piece. It can cut nicely, but also consumes power to do so. Structurally stronger than the Beam Lancer due to its construction at the cost of less versatility. Can sometimes be used as a momentary beam shield by being spun at high speed, though at the risk of failing or cutting one's self.

2 x Heat Anchor – Located on the knees, the Heat Anchor is a heated metal spike which can be used to ram into and gouge or impale an enemy with one's knee. It can also be launched on a rocket while mounted to a retractable cable. This rocket can be used to strike or ensnare an enemy at range. The use of this weapon is less precise than other melee armaments, and its rocket form's direction can only be controlled by a single small joystick per anchor near the pilot's thumb. As such, controlling the rocket's flight precisely is difficult. This weapon is as much for training a pilot's spatial awareness and skill in preparation for funnel control as it is for active combat.

2 x Hyper Beam Saber (Forearm Option) - a thick and long energy blade with exceptional cutting power, consumes a lot of energy.

Projectile Weapons:

Eight-tube Missile Pod – Launches up to eight infrared/laser guided-AMS-11S Small Missles from the backpack. These explosives can cause notable damage, but can be shot down or even damage their wielder if used recklessly.

Custom 2.18 MW Beam Rifle - Can deal high energy damage at the cost of power consumption and rate of fire. Has an underslung single-use grenade launcher which can cause explosive damage...even to the unit wielding it if too close. E-Pac fed, E-Pacs can be stored behind the Zulu Shield.

Variable Output Beam Cannon- Can modulate its discharge between Beam Rifle strength and a stronger Beam Cannon at the cost of high power draw and limited shots; can deal massive damage

2 x 4-tube Forearm Missile Launcher (Forearm Option) - Based on the original forearm of the Gelgoog, albeit with more smaller missiles, each Forearm Module fires up to four AMS-11 missiles. The explosives can cause notable tamage, perhaps even to an unwieldy user. Once used, the launcher becomes dead weight and can then be detached to speed up the arms for melee combat.

2 x 110mm Machine Cannon (Forearm Option) – An option from the Gelgoog Marine, these machine guns can deal physical damage with limited ammo capacity but high rate of fire.

360mm Bulpup Rocket Cannon - can deal high damage at the expense of very limited ammo. Magazine fed, magazines can be stored behind the Zulu Shield.

12 x Space Mine/Grenade – The Space Mine is an explosive which can either be deployed as a proximity-based mine or thrown like a discuss as a grenade. It is possible for a pilot to damage themselves if it detonates in too close a proximity or is shot before it can be thrown, however. Up to six can be stored in each Wing Binder.

2 x Chain Mine Pack - The pack of Chain Mines used by the MS-18 Kampfer or AMX-101E Schuzrum-Galluss can also be stored and employed by the ReGelg in place of the Space Mines. These explosive mines are connected by flexible cable and have magnetic claws on the underside to grab onto objects. The user can select exactly how many mines they wish to employ, be it one at a time or to throw a line of up to seven mines at the enemy. They can also be used to set traps on floors or in buildings, and the flexible line can even be used to send an optional detination signal rather than being solely proximity-based. It is a high versatility weapon for a pilot with sufficient understanding of their battlefield and planning capability. A pilot who is careless or unlucky, however, may simply blow themselves up. A single pack of Chain Mines can be stored in each Wing Binder.

Shield:

Zulu Shield – Large and heavy shield which is standard for the Gelgoog series of Mobile Suits. This version has a viewport, anti-beam coating, and can store two E-Pacs or Magazines.

#3 – ZAKU Warrior Light Armor

Base Unit: ZGMF-1002 ZAKU Warrior Light Armor (often uses Slash WIZARD)

Operator (Diver Name): Hikaru Hiyashi

A merging of the ZAKU Warrior and the GOUF Ignited built from wrecked Gunpla found discarded at a Gunpla Duel station, the ZAKU Warrior Light Armor is a merging of the two which has notable potential for melee combat and a decent capacity for mid-range beam fire. Its ability to attack from behind its shield with beam fire or heat spike ramming is one of its more notable aspects, and it is balanced for high mobility with its trimmed down armor and added verniers. It typically uses the Slash WIZARD, which both enhances it in its given role and is the lightest of the WIZARD Packs. The in-universe backstory for the machine is that it is a melee-based variant of the ZAKU Warrior built initially to help train pilots for the upcoming GOUF Ignited, but eventually became a favorite for certain piloting styles as well as an effective way of employing some of the GOUF's unusual armaments into a more standard and cost-effective machine.

Structural Defense:

Conventional Materials - Offers lighter armor weight for greater mobility, with no added benefit.

Special System:

WIZARD Pack Compatibility - Modular backpack system for the addition of weapons. Commonly employs the Slash Wizard.

Melee Weapons:

4x - 8x Hand Grenade - The hips of the ZAKU Warrior Light Armor can store one E-Pac each or two Hand Grenades each. The Assault Shield can hold two more E-Pacs or four more Hand Grenades. It is common to employ a total of two spare E-Pacs and four Hand Grenades on the machine at any given time. Types of grenades include Fragmentation, High-Explosive, Thermite Incendiary, Flash, and Smoke.

2 x Heat Spike - Superheated metal spikes on the face of the Assault Shield, used for ramming attacks.

MMI-558 “Tempest” Composite Beam Sword - A physical blade from the GOUF Ignited which has beam emitters on both sides. Stored in the Assault Shield when not in use, it can be handheld or extend from the bottom of the shield like a lance for added reach.

MA-MR Falx G7 Beam Axe (Slash Wizard Only) - A pole-arm version of the beam tomahawk with more reach than most beam sabers. The beam axe has two beam blades at the top and a metal scythe attached to the bottom. When not in use, the beam axe will retract and is stored on the back waist armor.

Projectile Weapons:

MMI-M633 Beam Assault Rifle - Has a high rate of fire but replies on external drum-shaped E-Pacs with limited shots. Somewhat mitigated by optional added E-Pacs on the hips or rear of shield.

M181SL “Draupnir” Two-barrel Beam Gun - One of the GOUF Ignited's forearm Beam Guns has been installed in the face of the Assault Shield. While having only two barrels rather than the standard four-barrel version, the firing rate and cooling system have been improved in an attempt to somewhat compensate. This is still a fairly destructive option, but notably a short range weapon.

M68 "Cattus" 500mm Recoilless Rifle - Initially used by the ZGMF-1017 GINN, it is similar in design to a bazooka and can fire various types of rounds depending to the magazine used. It is used when heavier firepower is required or when an enemy employs anti-beam technologies.

 

MMI-M826 "Hydra" Gatling Beam Cannon (Slash Wizard Only) - Mounted on the Slash Wizard are two gatling beam cannons with a very high rate of fire in exchange for weaker beams. These are mainly used for suppressive fire and for intercepting attacks, and are directly powered by the suit's battery.

 

Shield:

Assault Shield - Physical shield that can be handheld, arm-mounted or shoulder-mounted. Contains two Heat Spikes for ramming and a “Draupnir” two-barrel Beam Gun. Also stores a “Tempest” Composite Beam Sword inside and up to two E-Pacs or four Hand Grenades on the rear.

Power System:

Battery Pack - offers a light weight power solution for greater mobility but limited supply.
