Love this. I just started a campaign with a homebrewed fantasy egypt setting. Just gave a huge way to flesh out more details about the setting. Thank you very much

Look at mythology. Norse has a lot of "Elvin" creatures associated with elements

That works for me. I also want my players to make any race easily enough. Setting doesn't apply to my needs for what I want to do with this steam punk game.

So same core and dice mechanics just quicker jump in

whats the difference between fate core and accelerated?

Really treasure planet is just the visuals I'm trying to capture. Any steampunk genre rpg will probably work but I hardly have played anything but dnd and pathfinder. I like solid systems that give player choice..so really any system that allows a fair amount of character customization is good...

Yes, but those games cost 10's of millions of dollars. Which is a problem if they just hand the game over to someone else by selling a license agreement.

Have yall heard of the game Dragons Crown? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon's_Crown fits right in I think

There are lots of systems that have this. Also, how powerful and prevalent are these mechs? that will determine their damage. look at scale damages for spells and traps
