I believe we were discussing the Federation and proping it up with some more tech

if I may ask; SRX and the R-Series?

Wingnut asked us not to throw MP units at him so I'm only talking R-1, R-2, R-3 and R-Gun

I would say no on the SRX team, or at least R-1, R-2, and R-3 as if we bring them in to the picture, it would be a major event and I wouldn't know where to fit that in at this point, or on what side.
However, if someone wants to use the R-Gun/Powered, that would be fine as it can operate independantly of the rest of the R series without any problems.

Umm I think everyone gives LC more credit then they deserve. Their remaining fleet force is only 4 ships and not even a quarter of the full combat strength worth of VFs...

Yes, it is. I think Gai has plans for the Huckebeins though, and he also modified a pair of Wildrabuiters to suit the short range/long range fighting pair stance of them as well so it would be another step in the design concept if the first one proves effective. (Which it eventually will once they start to see combat.)

Omega, you can do both Zaine and Dante in one post you know. You don't have to have their actions in seperate postings.

o...kay. (Sorry, not having an active list of what's taken and what's not really shats up the selection)

My proposal for potential prototypes for Federation. I've thrown out a few in-game, but here goes:

S-Gundam
S-Gundam[bst]
Ex-S Gundam
Plan 303E Deep Striker
ZetaPlus Hummingbird
Gundam Mk-V
Hi-Nu Gundam
Hydra Gundam
Gundam Griepe
Gundam Sandleon
Gundam Derringer Arms
Destroy Gundam
Strike E Gundam (all packs)
Calamity Gundam (and Sword)

Anyway, How about the Impulse (and all it's variations)?

Wing G-UNIT mechs I am holding off on and may not appear at all as they reportedly are even more powerful than the Wing Zero I'm using.
Teil's Impulse I am also not sure about right now, but they have a far better chance than the G-UNIT machines. It all depends on the average strength of the PC mecha in use.

I already have a character using an MP Nu Gundam so the Hi-Nu is not really a practical idea when the Federation already has a Nu type model in action. (They'd just simply make more of what already works instead of messing around with a new design.)

There also is a character on the Fandom side that is using a Rouge version of the Strike E with the Out Frame's multi pack adapter, so if that one is used, than you'd have to make a backstory about it being stolen tech from the Fandom.

Other than that, the list sounds just fine, and I was also thinking about having the Chaos Gundam as a limited production, newtype use(?) unit that would serve as a squadron commander for groups of grunts and be a general purpose type among all the specialized mechs running about.

Tell me what you plan to use them for. If someone else wants to use them now, and you're not planning on using them until some time later, than I'm going to let the other person use them.

For the record, I'm not planning to use the ATX for my characters. and I think three pilots for me is my soft limit right now. I'm merely suggesting weapons for the Fed to develop.

Um, Omega? You know how you just destroyed my ship's main cannon? Yeah, you can't do that. Severing the Thanatos' positron cannon is considered hit calling. You can't declare an attack and have it connect without waiting for the attack-ee to make a response.

For now, I'll just assume Exia is making a run on the Thanatos (which shouldn't have even happened considering the number of our troops you would have had to go through to begin with) and have a few Metal Armors defend against the attack.
