>Player Name: What someone is called in OOC conversation. Frequently it’s either a preexisting Veeky Forums/IRC nick or the Callsign of their first PACYOA:TE character (this often leads to some confusion as to whether or not someone is saying something OOC or in RP). [Robert Downey Jr.] >Pilot Name: The birth certificate type name of the character who found and activated the pod. (I say birth certificate-type name as, since Suitfall, many pilots began using a different name than whatever was on their driver’s license.) [Tony Stark] >Suit Name: What the actual piece of hardware itself is called. Obviously if a pilot hasn’t given their suit a name its suit name is just [pilot name]’s suit. [The Mk-II] >AI Name: The name of your suits AI (shocking I know). Many pilots without uplifted AIs don’t differentiate between their AI and their suit and as a result they do not have separate names for them. (Jarvis) >Callsign: A callsign is what you get called on the radio (or whatever) during combat, however it is also used to refer to the “complete combat package” of the pilot, his suit, and the suit’s AI. (Iron Man)
This may seem dumb but without clearly defining name categories missions and RP get incredibly confused. Picture for example a player named Bob. Bob makes a medium suit and names it Bob. Bob also uses Bob as his call sign. Bob has a brain implant UI. Bob’s contempt for naming conventions has now made playing with Bob a fucking chore.
Bob posts: Bob hides behind the building and sends Bob charging around the corner and into combat with that Medium TA and makes three blade attacks.
Now the game is a pain in the dick as people have to constantly clarify if they’re referring to bob the suit, the pilot, the player or the suit and the pilot together in order to be understood. Bob himself, other players + the GM will forget to clarify which “bob” they’re talking about when they post shit: butthurt ensues. Fuck Bob.

Assuming I have my old suit's 230 points to play with, here's the build I've managed to clutter together:
>Bad War: a pike-wall of his own 230 points.
Dex 8 Dur 1 Str 3 Pow 8 Rec 4 Spd 5
>Sexy hopper -20 >Armour plating -10 >Capacitor I&II -20 >Spare energy cell -30 >Soldier AI -10 >Berserker nanites -10 >Sub-Armour Pistons -10 >6 pilebunker pikes -120, one of them Sierra Madre Specialed
I am terrible at maths and reading so please tell me if/where I've fucked up.
James Wood
Just warning you now, each Pile Bunker can only be used once before requiring a reload, and a reload is two turns.
Jack Thomas
Reposting to help me finalise the weapon loadout.
For someone aim to engage mostly at medium/close range as a GI: Guerrilla which loadout is more functional.
>2x Magnetic phaser or >2x Missile Pods
Andrew Collins
Missile Pods for pure damage, Magnetic Phaser for shenanigans.
Brandon Clark
I think missile pods are off-limits for GI.
What if we put a suit model in brackets, with the name of the pilot in parenthesis and the name of the suit normal.
Like so:
[ACLS-AS1] Silver Knight (William Wolfe)
Jeremiah Carter
Wait shit I thought it was a one turn reload time
fuck
It fits the theme too well.
Wait can you even attack twice with it in one turn then?
Carson Gray
Nope, melee fire rate is kind of useless with those.
I'm like, 90% sure.
Grayson Hughes
That means there aren't any good melee weapons, unless I'm missing something.
Alexander Adams
Well spotted, that makes it easy then.
Shenanigans it is. Though I mostly just want it for EMP.
Luke Cox
War lances are pretty neat: plasma damage level for 5 points less. And can be thrown.
Ryan Taylor
Plasma damage is too low, and has no additional effects like AP -- at least, that's what someone last thread said.
David Collins
It's still 8 damage, and the strength bonus would take that to 11.
Jayden Sanchez
Stop posting old IRC channels in the OP. Keeping them alive serves no purpose.
Adrian Moore
* With a dexy build, you can hit somewhere up to 12 times with 6 War Lances against a single target.
You could go from Pile Bunkers to lances and use the 30 points you save to buy a Spare Energy Cell.
Nicholas Roberts
But the damage is lower than shooty options, and it lacks further shenanigans like AP, and worst of all you can't use it for multiple targeting. I can only hit 6 times with 6 war lances before they all revert to blades. I'll probably just make a new build focused on shooting.
Spare energy cell -- I already have 12 actions, right?
Luis Flores
We need to go back to making things like pic related after missions
Jaxon Jackson
Agreed. I'll make one for any missions that I run from now on. Probably won't be as SDA as that, though
Bentley Reed
When I eventually have time to run my GI campaign, I'll do something similar. I'm not as good with photoshop as SDA though, so it won't be as pretty.
Juan Morales
Don't beat yourself up. No one's as SDA as SDA is they need to put him on a Wheaties box or some shit
Mason Rogers
No I'm saying that it won't look like Stardust. I'm actually good with Illustrator
Cameron Ramirez
>It probably won't look like this >I mean, it'll actually look good I dunno why I laughed

SAVAGE
Jaxson White
Wow, you made me kek. Bravo.
Elijah Allen
>Model number
Shit, I completely forgot we came up with this bullshit numbering system.
First, Faction:
AC - Armor Corps MQ - Moqaddas HB - Hanse Behorde TE - Engineers GI - Green Initiative PC - Phoenix Collective
Next, Size Class:
XS - Mesh LS - Light MS - Medium HS - Heavy FS - Fortress
Then, combat purpose, followed by the first letter of the suit's name:
A_ - Attack D_ - Deffense S_ - Support
And finally, variant/version number, followed by any possible squad callsigns or such
Examples: White Falcon Kai - ACLS-AW6/G2 (Gravedigger Unit 02) Lightning Knight - MQHS-AL4
Feel free to completely disregard this, or come up with a better suggestion.
Samuel Richardson
>having model numbers >when every suit is supposed to be a unique design
Anthony Parker
This is incredibly autistic. I didn't know I needed it in my life.
Bunyip: GIXS-AB7/S1 (I'm still sad Spooks never got to do anything)
Ayden Cook
>not having model numbers so you can make your speshul snowflake suit even more speshul
Dylan Morgan
Eh, it's just something neat to feel more tacticool, nothing else. Also, because Gundam, where even the super speshul snowflake MS have serial codes.
Hanai, New Salt, Fucking white birds, Hazard pay, and bad war are the lucky pilots!
> 10 CST >PM? AM? And I forgot GMing was like herding cats. Oh well! Back to the ranch!
Also anyone can be on the reserves. Show up on sunday and you have a chance to be in the mission! Which means you play if somebody fails to show up.
Which bad war might not be able to join if 1pm CST is his end time and 1 pm is my start time. However I will start sooner if everyone is on before then.
Also as I continue to write for the mission know these three things.
1. you start on a stealth speedbarge that puts you within 9 range of the target without them knowing. 2. They are known to talk first before firing unless you approach them after hails. 3. Any long range fire that reached them after breaching their anti-air network seems to not be able to cripple the ship. It seems to be somewhat tough, but not outrageously armored. It got a big hull for you pilots.
Know that we know nothing... About the ship itself. They have only had it for about a month so far and we do not know how much they know about the ship and it's abilities.
Be careful pilots.
Leo Ramirez
>big hull >for you Would it hurt if I removed it?
Robert Foster
Bump for today's mission. What info do we have about it?
Daniel Harris
Bump
Jaxson Nguyen
>remove it Okay, what's the next step in your master plan?
Connor Garcia
Meant 10 AM CST to roughly 8 PM CST is when I can play
Mason Gray
How long does an ingame round take? Like a minute?
Colton Walker
Does anyone have the speeds chart?
Christopher Turner
Apologies for being late; unforeseen circumstances kept me from starting the mission when I had intended to.
OPERATION HELLJUMPERS
Greetings and congratulations on yor first simulated mission success, pilots. To test your skills this time, however, you'll be deployed into an active combat zone in the Middle East. Moqaddas HQ has reported a medium sized Puppet lair several kilometers away from God's Eye. However, there's several important files in one of the buildings in the area, so we can't risk a bombardment.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, will be to retrieve the files and plant explosive charges around the base of the main Vannai structure, to prevent the lair from growing and becoming a threat to Moqaddas HQ.
Do not worry, however. A veteran escort has been provided to ensure your safety during the operation, should the enemy prove too stubborn in their resistance.
Welcome to the Armor Corps.
>Mission will start at 1200 GMT-6 >5 slots, first come first serve. >An extra, sixth slot, has been reserved for the veteran player who'll be accompanying you on this deployment. >Dismissed.
Am newb and could take part if you end up short of people, but not too bothered, happy to just lurk.
Xavier Hill
There is a space.
Leo Wilson
Noted.
Mission post coming up soon.
Thomas Walker
Thread is UP. Erryone, get in!
Austin Moore
>press A to jump out of the plane
Aaron Garcia
How much points do you typically get per mission? How many missions are typically run? My build might work, but it'd require a lot of points down the line.
Sebastian Miller
have you guys thought of making a discord channel
Brody Reed
I think the IRC has enough discord
Lincoln Fisher
But not enough discourse.
Cooper James
no, like the application, Discord.
Ethan Cox
I think it's 15 for side missions and 30 for main missions.
>how many missions are run Depends on how many people feel like being GMs. Though I can confidently say to expect way more side missions than main missions.
Matthew Powell
I decided to give Clownfish double up. Anybody wanna brainstorm how their character might be able to do some extra ridiculous stuff with her?
>inb4 "ecchi stuff"
Kevin Murphy
Remind me what "double up" means?
Jaxon Bennett
clownfish?
Henry Hall
Remind me what "clownfish" means?
Chase Adams
One of Wing Jaeger's characters
Sebastian Price
iunno. Its a ball with every black market weapon available packed into it.
Noah Clark
Uh, I could make her into a rolling hedgehog. Beyond that can't do shit. Melee + ultrashooty doesn't seem a killy combination.
Well We'd only have to be really really close so I could loan you +4 STR and like all the DUR in the world without actually going into melee
Alexander James
Aw, I thought it was a gattai type transformation.
Wait does it last indefinitely? That could get fairly killy. I'm sure there're other, better-suited, shooty suits though.
Grayson Sullivan
its similar but instead of actually combinibg you just share stats/damage/some class ability buffs
it only lasts a minute and a half sadly. Clownfish is designed as the kind of heavy assault unit that charges in and seriously destroys the shit out of stuff then falls back as her allies charge in to exploit the devastation.
Cameron Thomas
That might work pretty well then. That's exactly what my dude's meant to do. Role-wise it'd work great, but stat-wise neither of us could help the other too much (4 str is pretty cool but I don't think my build could do much for you).
Eli Scott
pastebin.com/QABb05TE First time doing this. Some of the stuff's based from an older version of the PDF, but I did fix most if not all of them. Looking for some feedback on this and see exactly what I'm missing here.
Leo Gonzalez
what class is it?
Carson Turner
Light. It's , but I'm currently in the process of fixing it up. Namely, making sacrifices so I can eventually have twelve pile bunkers.
Liam Price
>super-villain laugh Your suit can share Celerity via Double-Up.
Even discounting the bonus dodge that would give her the bonus to fire rate gives her another shot with her Cross. Also it guarantees she'll be able to benefit from your Crossfire and let me tell you what, ultra-sooty luff crossfire
Jacob Howard
hmmmm I dont think you can has sierra madre special
James Wood
Well I'm up for it. Especially given they're the same faction. Worth noting that any Light could do that though. It's the reward for Unlikely Heroes, no?
Ryan Hall
Yea, I didn't realize you was a vet >f- forgive me senpai
Jaxson Murphy
>I didn't realize you was a vet I'm a bit of an unlikely hero, yes.
Josiah Lee
>all those characters as tabs on one page Fucking stupid.
Christopher Lopez
Tis the law of Fool, and we must abide
Joseph Ortiz
I never asked for this.
Michael Parker
>Tis the law of Fool Fool didn't make that rule.
Gabriel Lopez
so much has changed since I was last around, but not the rolling system huh?
Ryan Anderson
Why haven't we changed that yet, anyways It's still just a D20 but with much more complicated interpretation and bonuses
Julian Morgan
are you certain? because when I played it was a d100.
Juan Ross
I mean in a mechanical sense, it's a D20, but we still use a D100 for some reason
Nathan Walker
Not when you account for the DEX roll bonuses from your dex stat or the 0.5 dodge per point of SPD.
Anthony Jones
For the STIG, do Hawkeye and ASS count as one thing to get for free?
Joseph Cooper
Yes. The options are:
>EC 2/3 >Hawkeye and ASS >Night Vision >Kinetic Stabilizers >Levitation >Skates >Flight
Michael Sanders
Because d20 system is pretty good as a system.
100D in my eyes makes it harder then 5% to get an auto success though.
Lucas Jones
Big numbers are fun.
Liam White
How tall are the elven-infused guys? I'd guess decently so because of their fruity DNA. Just need some confirmation
Juan Barnes
They can be the same size. Elfs get the pointy ears, enhanced bods, and a pen to CHA.
Ayden Jackson
And a very special place on the watch-list of a certain faction...
Levi Wood
So, uh. If I choose a Variable suit, can I have one form being a hybrid? Effectively having two other suits combined into one form of the suit overall?
Luis Morales
That right there is some really cheeky shit. But I imagine it's possible to be able to switch between a hybrid and another body type
Connor Jenkins
You can also have sexy/bio/&c. suits to collect 'em all.
