All will be explained in due time, SB. And by explain I mean glossed-over in favour of more giant robot fights. _{Unless you really push for an explanation.}

I don't know what's up with the other tile-based games. It's up to GM-preference obviously. Also I was thinking of having letters along one axis but didn't do so because that'd be too much work. Though ironically I was going to have them along the top, not the side.

[SOLDIER First]

I'm just kind of wondering. I mean, it seems you were pushing towards robo e robo combat, which is standard fare. I'm not sure where lizard-people fit into this 2kX timeline...

[kj1225]

Can we kill people with their own weapons for style points?

[SOLDIER First]

Style gets you sent home in a pine box, soldier.

It's a game inspired by 70s super robot shows, SB. Aliens and weird shit is practically a given. Mazinger Z had a villian that was literally a disembodied Nazi head. Is a double-headed Lizard/Human really all that more ridiculous? _{Don't worry, there'll be plenty of hot robot-on-robot action after this.}

Can we kill people with their own weapons for style points?

I see no reason why not. _{Though Style Points would be entirely different from Spirit Points. Unless you guys really want to flex your writing muscles and thus clamour for them being one and the same.}

[Rolepgeek]

Except in the case of gladiatorial combat, in which case style points prevent you from being buried in a ditch outside the Colosseum.

The first mission is up, guys. Please submit your actions ASAP!

Also: Stupid Elf, stealing the top of the new page.

B-baka....

Jake would have felt better if he had a rifle, but a good scrap wouldn't be amiss, especially if he can rescue his teammates. Jake moves to [12, 13] and backs up Ray against green SS

Tryrar, Jake is currently at (09, 15) and a speed of 4. He simply doesn't have the movement to go to (13, 12). Please change your action.

So I can't move diagonally is what you're saying? Otherwise by my count then yes I can

[USEC_OFFICER]

Yeah, no diagonals. I thought I specified that in the OP but obviously not. Sorry about that.

No worries, there's a blue SS in the middle I can knock silly

[USEC_OFFICER]

...

But you can't move on broken tiles so I don't see how you can reach him. _{I really should have laid out everyone's starting positions better. Sorry about that.}

.....*facepalm* I really didn't think you couldn't move over those, maybe make things like impassable tiles more clear next time?

Edit: I also take you can't attack diagonally? Because then there's nobody I can reach this turn

Edit Edit:Screw it, I'll head to 11 13 and sit for now, maybe intercept one of them coming around the corner from that broken tile

Aliens m8.
Haven't you watched Macross? Or for that matter, any mecha anime from the 70s/80s? Unless I'm wrong, it was really only around the time of Gundam that human v human giant robot fights became the norm over fighting alien (but strangely human) empires.

Although, mecha anime isn't really my area (Gurren Lagann, Eureka Seven and Code Geass notwithstanding) so bleh, USEC is better at that.

Elizabeth let out a laugh and moved forwards to (07,13), she then manoeuvred her mech into sending a punch at the black skull squadie.

We don't have our mechs yet.

[USEC_OFFICER]

Cabbage_Patch, Roundhouse costs 3 SP. You'll have to wait at least two more turns before you can use it. Try a different action instead.
