The year is 13,037. The Earth has long been stripped barren of all ores and so Mars was made fit for habitation and colonized. On this New Earth, combat with giant robots is the wave of the future and is done in a large domed arena for sport. Year round, people gather for the Combat Mech PvP Arena Madness GRAND BATTLE ROYALE. You and five others are the lucky contenders this year, and you enter with your respective mechs for the GREATEST THROWDOWN THIS WORLD HAS EVER SEEN.

I'm gonna assume everyone knows the RtD rules by now, but just in case...

Spoiler: Them Dice (click to show/hide)

[1] Supreme Failure: You failed. Hard. You sucked so bad you made things worse for yourself than they were before.
[2] Fail: You couldn't do whatever you tried to do.
[3] Minor Success: You succeeded at what you were trying to do, but not without failing in some way or shape.
[4] Success: You accomplished whatever you tried to do. Hooray!
[5] A Winner is You: You succeeded in a completely awesome and over the top fashion.
[6] Overshot: Whatever you did, you did it so cool, you have unintended consequences.

Spoiler: DA RULES (click to show/hide)

There are a total of Six players, and it's every man for himself! You're free to attack whoever you want, whenever you want, pretty much. You can make alliances, gang up on people, the entire deal. However, the main rule is no godmodding. You're free to be as over-the-top and silly as you want, but godmodding isn't fun for anyone. This goes for your mech creation as well. Be as silly as you want but don't make your machine impossible to beat or I WILL find a way to defeat it.

In combat, the attacker and defender both make a roll. If the attacker rolls higher, he hits, if the defender rolls higher, the attack misses. If the attack hits, another roll will be made using the dice rules to gauge the amount of damage done. None of that sissy HP business.

As said before, in combat you're allowed to literally do almost anything your mech allows. You can make your mech a Gundam, fly into the air and execute a spinning aerial dropkick. Be as extreme and over the top as you want, it'll probably be more fun for all of us.

Spoiler: Character Sheet (click to show/hide)

Mech Name: Insert the name of your mech here!
Mech Appearance: What will your instrument of death look like?
Special Skill: Is your mech faster than a speeding bullet? Can it tunnel under the ground? Does it have some sort of energy barrier? Etc etc.
Mech Equipment: Your standard weapons. Can be anything from rifles to heat legs. Maximum of three.
Mech SPECIAL WEAPON: An EXTREME weapon that defines your mech. Maximum of one.
Pilot Name: Optional.
Background: Optional as well.
Misc: Anything else you wish to add.

You have free liberty to add whatever you want. Take note that whatever you add will affect you in combat somehow, so if you equip your mech with a shield, that may equal a +1 to all defense rolls from the front. If you have heavy armor, that may equal -1 to all dodging rolls but you can take damage better.

Signups are over!. We have hit the maximum of 6 people for this round. We can have an additional 6 people on the waiting list if anyone wishes. These 6 will participate in their own round when this current one is over.

[Krath]

There are six doors on each side of the six-sided arena, and each one opens at the same time. Out of each, a giant mechanical robot steps, a contender for the championship for this year. The crowds cheers get loud enough to drown out everything else as an announcer on a loudspeaker asks for silence.

It's time for the 274th Annual Combat Mech PvP Arena Madness GRAND BATTLE ROYALE! Contestant, prepare yourselves for combat! Are you ready?

Three...

Two...

One...

BEGIN!

The arena itself is large and domed, and the floor is covered in grass and the occasional rocky outcropping tall enough to take cover behind. Flight-capable mechs can easily move around and those stuck to the ground will have ample cover.

You are all located in your own corner of the arena and start roughly 50 feet away from each other. Mech skills like the Infernal's incredible agility will be factored into the combat rolls accordingly. Nothing larger than +1 or -1 per buff/ailment. The combat is ready to begin so...Input your actions and let's rumble, and lets have some fun with this, people!

Thr Rush skitters into the nearest cover, and launches cannon fire at the mech to its left.

[Keita]

Run to Mech on the right spraying fire at it from pistols

[MagusBlack]

Get into range of the foe on my left and use the anti-mech cannon. Instruct Angel to watch my back.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Fire the Heavy Gauss and SRM-6 at the mech directly across the arena, prepare to dodge incoming fire.

[Jetsquirrel]

So wait this goes in rounds? so if everyone dies then a new round starts with new sign ups right? anyway sign me for a waiting list

[maxicaxi]

I make a massive jump trying to land on another mech, shooting all the way

[Krath]

So wait this goes in rounds? so if everyone dies then a new round starts with new sign ups right? anyway sign me for a waiting list

Yeah, pretty much.

Just waiting on MrNuke now.
