Jarval, I'd love too to be in this game, but I haven' got neither D20 Modern nor the mecha minigame yet. Let me know if it is too much of a problem.

GWolf,
Sir Osis of Liver,
The Black Kestrel,
mirthcard,
Mitchifer,
garyh, you're all in. I'll give you more details in my next post.
Sorry, I'll have to pass on you, creamsteak, Lichtenhart and Uriel_fire_of_Heaven, as I've already got six players (about the max I can handle). On the other hand, I really like creamsteak's NPC idea, so if you're interesting in acting as an NPC at some point, then please post again or e-mail me.

Would someone be interested is DMing another Mecha Crusade game? There seems to be a fair amount of interest.
On the mech front, you have 15,500 Build Points to play with. Build something suitable for general combat for starters, as I'll be running you all through a quick battle to get you (and me) used to the mecha rules.
You'll be part of the military hierarchy, so one character will be the commanding officer for the unit. If someone takes the Wing Captain advanced class, then they will be assigned that position, otherwise it'll be assigned randomly. I should make it clear that this shouldn't be used as a way to boss the other PCs around.

Is anything off limits or can we just get what ever we can with that many points?

All the players in the house, I'm callin' out to ya!

garyh,
What kind of mechas are you guys planning on building? I'm thinking a Huge Mecha, but if everybody else is going for Large, then I might change. There are so many options, I'm feeling a little bit swamped. Just thought maybe we could give each other pointers…
Edited to add: Should we consider making a Metabot? If so, it would have 74,400 build points!
Does Jarval have anything to say about this idea?

Constructicons, merge for the kill!!
I've had the mini-game for about 18 hours, 8 of which I've been sleeping. So, I'm not sure what type of mecha I'll be making just yet.
That said, I'll probably do a speed and maneuverability oriented mecha. As for size, I'm not sure. Probably Large, since I don't know if we can afford Huge yet. The sample mecha in our BP range (the 10,445 BP Reliant and the 17,700 BP Saber) are both Large, so I think that's probably the way to go. Otherwise, we may not have any BP to spend on weapons after buying the frame!!
I do like the idea of a metabot. If we go this route, I insist that the metabot be named Devastator.
Don't forget, if we do go with a metabot, someone should take the Metabot Leader feat.
EDIT: Further, the metabot route will give us a way to compete against larger mechas, which is all the more important since we'll individually be piloting the smallest possible mecha frames.
EDIT II: I might try to make my mecha transform as well.
