I'd like to dispute that a little. I may only have 16 tons worth of weapons, I have a damage potential of 240(average is gonna be a bit less, but hey). That's on the higher end of all the mechs here :P

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Heh. It IS still somewhat squishy, though, and it's right up with the Exalt in terms of glass cannon-ness.

ADAMANT and ASR are tankier and deal better average damage, I believe.

heh, yah. The TDS-1A Thor was built like a fighter jet; fast, lots of dakka, but a bit fragile(though I do have decent defensive systems)

I expect to see many a bullet hell when you're fighting other mecha.

Eh... ASR-066 could be better. If I switched all of its weapon tonnage to close-range, its DPS should double before armour is considered. So unless armour reduces damage by more than half, more dakka is the way to go. Except ASR-066 is a Super Robot, so it has to have a melee weapon of some type. So I guess I'll change stuff around a bit when tonnage isn't so tight.

I'm trying to gear mine as a super robot too, hence the appearance and the BFS. :P

Obviously. Why else would you take the Heavy Frame? Besides the fact that it's better than a Medium Frame if you give it the speed booster.

The difference, Elf, is that I control my character. :P

And while it might be a thing where Sam's okay with 'helping', they're not actually going to enjoy it, not really. Just not how they work. Love=/= sex, for them. But this is getting a bit redundant to be arguing about, so instead I'll complain about Sam only appearing once on the tropes page. :P

It's probably just because I haven't made them overwhelmingly badass on first impression.

On the other hand, I'm like the only person who likes to fight at long range.

I should have made a heavy mech and given it like eight long range weapons and just artilleried everything to all hell. Made some mistakes when designing my mech in terms of stats. Ah well.

Added a bit more backstory to Trevor, since before, it seemed bland.

I added a trope for Sam.

Also, I've realized that Sam and Kyle are axe buddies.

Maria is an Expy of Sniper Wolf. And her Mech is a Expy of Crying wolf's mech suit...

Well, just because it's not canon doesn't mean I can't write fanfic about it. Just ask everyone who was in KS. :P

IT IS DONE

Welp. I added in a few more tropes, and edited some of the existing tropes to better reflect Luzia and the ASR. I hope that you're happy Elf.
