Take mech suits, at first there easy to rule as a silly piece of science fiction but then you look closer at Project Hardiman, at the Hybrid Assistive Limb and the idea of a working mech suit is a reality.
Those are more of an example of an exosuit, and certainly arent 300 ft tall and armed with lasers.

Anyways, back to the game talking. Sounds good.

I got a little overwhelmed today, and am going to have to put off the launch. Sorry everyone! I am going hoe for Thanksgiving tomorrow, and will probably be able to think up the rules on my way. Ill try to publish tomorrow, or more likely, Wednesday.

Alright, any last minute comments or concerns? I am about to start the poorly thought out writeup.

I totally forgot to put a PPU on everyone's current design  :-[. Ill have to get it next turn, assuming nobody tries manufacturing large amounts. I am a little busy today.

Yeah. That is how the rotation works. The text isn't very important, but here is the one I think you mean if you really really want to see it.

Interested, made a sheet.

There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

Do all of the guns we have in our world exist here? Like the AK, M4, etc.

Yep! All weapons we have exist in some form, though some of them are difficult to get a hold of. You can't, for example, make nuclear weapons without devoting some time to developing them.

Does R&D cost money?

Not necessarily, it is generally assumed that any development area you have has all the necessary resources to properly develop weapons without extra money being spent. If you try something absurdly expensive, like testing out a gold plated anti aircraft gun that fires diamond bullets, your R&D is going to have to dip into your funds.
