Spoiler for Patchouli-sama!!!:

Spoiler for Eye am Cirno, yo!:

Spoiler for for all the DFCs out there...:

Anyway, for next instalment...

Spoiler for snippet:

She was stumped, but opted not to let him see the shock. "...yes, she was my mother." She looked back at him, noticing that his eyes' gaze became emptier. "Hikki, what's the matter? I-I'm sorry if I had hurt you."

He shook his head. "I'm fine, I'm fine. I was just touched by your story," he said with a smile that she noted was obviously forced. "I mean- come on! How can we not love our own mother after all the sacrifices she had done for us?"

She had to agree in silent. All the ordeals she had to endure, all the hardships her body had to painfully take, only strengthened her devotion towards the woman she called mother. It was true that Precia Testarossa had fallen victim to her own dream of having a family, yet even this did not deter her strong emotions for her. Deranged or not, Precia was and would forever be her kindhearted angel.

The only question she was asking was what in the name of heavens had she said to offend him? What kind of force that had made Hikki, the carefree Gale Whistler, so disturbed?

FYI, that would be my OC Thread Mother's Day Special entry.

[Wild Goose]

I'm in the process of formulating some crack. It'll be distilled and posted later.

USB making another OC fic installment . DO WANT!!!

and maybe one of my OCs to finally appear in one >_>

[Wild Goose]

@USB: The Librarian and Meganekko Princess? I may or may not introduce them... I really need to think where I want to go with Library Wars.

Also, a diversion I need, because I'm getting a bit tired of traditional OC stuff - and it was only a matter of time before I made this:

Spoiler for Long Crack is Long:

It is the year 2009. Humanity is taking its first steps to the stars. On Macross Island, the SDF-1 Macross prepares to be launched, a symbol of the UN might and power.

Then the unthinkable happens. A hidden defense mechanism is triggered. Alien ivaders are shot from the sky, but more come to take their place. The zentraedi, the alien giants whom the Variable Fighter series were intended to combat, have arrived.

Desperate, Captain Global orders a fold jump to the far side of the moon... and arrives at the edge of Pluto, with Macross City caught along with the carriers Promethus and Daedalus.

Now, the UN Space forces of the SDF-1 Macross are in the fight for their lives. They must travel from PLuto to earth, fighting a running battle while keeping the civillians inside the Macross safe and sound. With many pilots killed, they must rely on fresh, raw, untested recruits: volunteers from Macross City's civillian population. Upon the shoulders of these citizen soldiers rest the hopes of Earth's final defense against the aliens.

And standing alongside them, backing them up, are one group. They have written their names in the halls of Montezuma. They have landed on the shores of Tripoli. On the mountains of Iwo Jima they raised their flag high for all to see. And now, in Space War 1, they will add a new chapter to their long and distinguished history.

They are the Few and the Proud.

They are Marines.

Wild Goose presents
The Outer Cadia Macross Project

When the SDF-1 Macross folded, it carried with it not only UN Spacy squadrons, but also UN Marine Corps variable fighter squadrons, Destroid companies and infantry. The Marine Expeditionary Unit onboard the SDF-1 is commanded by Colonel Erick Long, and consists of the following elements:

* Ground Combat Element: 1 battalion of Infantry reinforced with 16 LAV-25 and numerous Destroid Tomahawks and Spartans, along with 3 Destroid Monsters for artilery support

* Air Combat Element: Consists of 3 Marine Variable Fighter squadrons. All squadrons operate VF-1M and VF-1Ns in the multirole configuration, with a number of VF-1Ds for training purposes.

* Logistics Combat Element

* Command Element: Colonel Long's HQ staff.

The Marine Corps uses 4 variants of the standard VF-1 Valkyrie: 2 variants are from the Spacy, while another 2 were designed for use by the Marine corps: the VF-1M and VF-1N. The VF-1M, aka "Marine Valk", is the standard Valkyrie in UNMC service, based off the VF-1B and enjoying roughly 85-95% parts commonality with its progenator. The VF-1N is issued to flight leads or Squadron leaders, and has 90% parts commonality with the VF-1J. The main differences between Marine Valks and their Spacy counterparts are that Marine Valks have their engines tuned to provide more power to their Energy Converting Armor; this results in a VF-1M enjoying better protection and armor than a VF-1B, at a cost of top speed. The second modification is a special housing for a purpose-built valkyrie-scale Ka-bar combat blade, the iconic knife of the USMC. The VF-1N is essentially identical to the VF-1J except for the additional Ka-bar and EC armor/engine tuning. VF-1Ds are used for training and recon, and one VF-1S is issued to Marine Lead, Major Glen Schattenmann, identical in all respects to the Navy VF-1S.

In addition to their Valkyries, the Marines also have several gunpod options unique to their service. Apart from the standard GU-11 55mm gunpod, a number of Marine Valkyries are deployed with the GU-12 65mm Designated Marksman Gunpod, a single-barrel long range gunpod with ammunition options for HEAP, HEAT, Depleted Uranium, tungsten penetrator and Fuel Air Explosive. The Marines also use the GU-5H gunpod, based off the 30mm GPU-5 gunpod used by the US Air Force, in the antipersonnel role, firing 30mm DU rounds.

Key cast members:

CO: Colonel Erick Long

VMFA-511 "Storm Riders"
CO: MAJ Glen "Shadow" Schattenmann (VF-1S)
XO: [Placeholder]
Storm 2: CPT Francis "Jack" Anderson (VF-1M)
Storm 3: 2LT Kha (VF-1M)
Storm 4: CPT Michael "Tempest" Zhang (VF-1M)

Storm 5: CPT "Low Gear" (VF-1N)

VFMA-461 "Heavy Hitters"
CO: MAJ TK "Total Kill" (VF-1N with GPB-1S Armored Valkyrie system)

* * * * *

And that's pretty much everyone I can remember at this point.

Basically, I'm writing crack about a UN Marine Corps onboard the Macross. Since I lack sufficient knowledge to make up new charecters I'm drafting OC authors into my fic :P

Signups are greatly welcomed. Please include the following details:

Name
Height
Weight
Eye Color
Skintone
Ethnicity
Nationality & Country of Origin
Short Bio
Role: Infanty, Destroid, Valk Pilot.

The whole purpose of this is for the OCs to give a hand to the CCs, however. We aren't taking over their show. And also I want to write classic macross Crack.

Oh and Kha's the only person with contractual immunity; I'm using anyone can die since that's what Macross used. However, be assured that you will be informed in advance before you are killed - and that if you die, it will be at the very least a Bronze Star death.

Unless it's Death By Miriya, who can kill just with fanservice. -_-

And goodnight all. I'll be expecting your comments in a few hours from now...

Yes now Nanoha stuffs.... ergh coming later. <.<

I don't believe that SAFA members are all S+ or anything, but at the very least, I range their average from highly experienced AAs (( like that old grandma who decimated Fate/Nanoha )) to AAA+/- and such. And maybe one or 2 Zest-ish veteran S-rankers.

You've got to take into account that the Aces, while known for their skills, are also young, being the cream of the crop. AAA is extremely unnatural for a 9 years old, and S+ rank at 19 seems like a very high accomplishment even for geniuses.

Agreed.

Hmm, only Hikaru on my part, and she's going to be a mage, nothing extraordinary like a sentoukijin or some other 'secret weapon'

Though like I said, I haven't really found a role for her yet. I have to give her a clear purpose, otherwise I can't write with her.

Hmm, so you're basically doing the same we're doing here, only for the Macrossverse?

Sounds like a good idea, though my knowledge of Macross is very small, so I probably won't be much of a help. Grab and alter my OC's if you wish though.

Celica, the 143rd Non-Administered World

-From “Worlds in a Nutshell” by Kaylin Mathis, from Issue #286 of the Midchilda Geographic Society Monthly, April MC0075

Interesting stuff here, though IMO its a little too convenient for most of the crimelords in Ordered Space to end up in one perfectly Arc-able spot...

...though...

...this gives me some Khrack about where the League has tentacles next.

Like to see what comes of this. It being so toasted from warfare gives me Khrack to throw in SOPCC, Nod and the Shadow Clan onto the planet for an explosive summer movie.

They were supposed to protect the place, right?), and the general defenses got fragmented.

It was a textbook example of a successful raid with inferior firepower but superior brainpower.

Several fingers point to insider work for that fiasco to even happen, and I believe it is so.

What I found appalling was after that. During the run up to Cradle's launch, Midchilda forces mounted practically a non-existent defence. And whatever Aces were stationed there, were next to useless save our Mary Sues.

I look at this and I facepalm. How does an organization like this administrate Time Space? 99% of the villains and aliens I've created will WTFpwn these lassies. As much as I wish that the TSAB has maybe an ounce of a horde army to make up for the sorry lack of power, but so far, it looks hopeless.

I guess I was right that a small detachment of Necrons could hold the counter-invasion force at bay with ease in CrosyS. And TSAB forces get slaughtered at Meggido.

Which also brings me to the next theory being pushed forward that the TSAB actually controls only a handful of stars, not the hundreds and hundreds AWs that we may have thought possible. Most of the worlds they've know of fall under NAW status, and this giant ring of desolate worlds is what's cushioning them from the harsh realities of the greater multiverse that destroyed an Empire that once truly administrated these worlds.

Spoiler for MASSIVE 4-CHAN CLASS SCREAM:

The battle was nearing an end in the zenith of the sun. The two colossi, exhausted from their ordeal of fire and sword, readied their nicked, but yet keen weapons for their final assault, their glistening muscules tense from the lingering effects of their battle between lions.

Zarakiya flicked his hand outwards, drawing upon the ground a jigsaw of runes, their complexity unabated. The runes fell into place neatly, locking themselves into the titanic array painted upon the surface of the lividly scarred ground.

[Anglachel.]

Juste didn't even bother to waste that much time, his blank eyes seemingly flashing coldly in the bloody sunset. He flicked his wrist outwards, igniting a deathly aura around his spear, as the winds drew to him in whiplashing spirals, forming a sandstorm worthy of the Iblis, the very avatar of the great sand demon.

[Rhongomiant.]

"READY?" Juste's shout carried over the din and wrack of his own spell.

"YOU DAMN BETCHA I AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Zarakiya was in no mood to back down either.

Yes, there would be no backing down. There would only be a duel. A duel for glory. And proof of the best...the best of the best.

It began even before any could see it, with Zephyrus at full tilt trying to keep his winds in pace with the two as they clashed, the energy wave from their assault devouring the earth around like with the earthquake's may, their fearsome battlecry rending the skies apart like the lance of the gods.

JUSTE: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see.

...which is why the TSAB is actually much more hopeless than we've made them to be. They can take on NOTHING outside their comfort zones. Because given the amount of spellshaping needed to battle the likes of Necrons, Spawn, Chaos Belka, heck even Thrall and his Space Orcs, these guys either need more gear, or need more levels.

So far all I can see is that they can control the threat of Nod, and only just. Sad to say, when the crunch comes, the responsibility of defending Ordered Space would fall solely on SOPCC, the Saint Guard and whatever remnant of the old GDI that steps up.

Not when these guys are the commanders of said puny GF mages.

2021 post a month
70 Posts per day
2.7 Post and Hour
Or 1 post every 21 minute

That’s either something to be proud of or slightly scary…

Depends on how you look at it.

Chapter Eight—Rain and Sacrifice

Exprozion! A captivating read as always. I was expecting infernals, but a good old rain of rock works just fine for the occasion. It even took out the ley node the base was sitting on.

Right, that's about all ...

Not.

That's only half of the entire bluecheesium, I'll post the rest when I've gotten over this sore at my rear. Been sitting too long in front of the computer.

Enjoy!

P/S: Before that, I'll have to offer prayers and apologies to the God and the OC thread in general for purposefully sending a number of CC members from Escutcheon, Teana, and Signum to the guillotine. May their souls rest in peace.

*FLEES LIKE HELL!*

I grinned at the idea that a Sunstrider has survived to this day. :3

The plot thickens, and you're nowhere done. To the next scene!

I passed you what you've asked for, thought it's lacking in Traces, has too many of some tricks and too little of others.

But as far as I can say, I hope the Codex becomes worthy enough for anyone to create a Cleric-Knight, since most of the spells are shared.

@Kyral: Yep, the Belkan Scriptor's magic is showing here! Going to do a big backlog buster later. Haven't read your stuff yet, but from the outlook, it's superb!

Anyway, third round! BLUECHEESE NUKE, AWAY!

Yup AOE breaks stealth. And nice theme there; certainly fit the mood. :3

And that's it. All four of them. Truth is, it's actually as long as Chapter Six, but production cost was too high and things got toned down a little.

Now that my nuke ammunition is out ...

*flees from HAXX-busters and people crying for my blood*

P/S(1): The guillotine is a lie.
P/S(2): Please stop if you think your adrenaline is pumping too fast from the (ill-paced) actions. It's not good for your heart. :3
P/S(3): The author suggest Eye-mo in advance.

Once again, another amazing episode of great Justice! All that magic really tore the arena to shreds.

And while it was gratuitiously over the top, given the nature of things they were up against, I expected no less.

This further reinforces the theory that TSAB is frankly, not much of a administrator of Time Space as a whole. Not enough power density to able to exert control.

Again, thanks to PhoenixG and Aaron008R for beta-reading!

To everyone who read, thanks alot, couldn't be doing this without you guys and gals. I read everyone's comments even though i might not have responded to them, i also tried to make it a bit more clear to avoid needless confusion. But if i didn't succeed in that, then i suppose that confusion is just a part of my personality.

links to chapters 1 and 2.

About formatting: Davrams lines are always preluded by an empty line, and i usually don't have another empty line afterwards. But when i have two people talking and neither TALKS LIKE THIS, i use empty lines to indicate that the person who's talking has changed.

anyway, around 5500 words like the last chapter as well, here it is:

Moving towards the present at high speeds? I believe relativistic cuts it closer!

Some comedy desserts to go with PF's main dish. Great! More fun from the Tsundere Tower and Mr Grizzly. :3

...actually, the image of the poor mages walking into davrams tower and subsequently getting squished by a huge steamroller held by davram going WRYYY does sound epic... or atleast hilarious

Oh for Sankt's sake do calm down; we're tearing the thread apart with our hotblood already.

Also, I've said that to everyone and I'll say it again: There is no such thing as respect through veterancy in OC, only those who earned it. Frankly, pushing rank around is one thing I hate the most, and would definitely make the thread even more closed than it already is...

I admit many parties, including myself, had a part to play in this mess, and so once and for all, can we stop attacking each other? And sometimes, excessive talking just KILLS inspiration.

So everyone please, STOP TALKING, START WRITING!!!

On the SAFA thing, it's pretty much hinted that Nanoha is perhaps the most powerful or at the very least, among the highest tiers in her unit. That doesn't demean the strength of other SAFA instructors though, since they're supposedly the elite air mages among the elite air mages who are already an elite of their own. Presumably, they're all probably AAA rankers and above. Nanoha did say Vita would fit in quite nicely among the instructors after all. There's probably minimal gap.

All the more reason I'd say the threat levels in Nanohaverse is still :eyeroll: especially when the incidents can be solved by 10 to 20% of the elites alone.

More like the threat levels are non-existent. Heck the Nobles I created will steamroller TSAB like Davram did Kha's overzealous ancestors.

Well, I don't recall promising anyone that I'd keep from pwning Reiji. :P And calling him a Romeo November Charlie wouldn't even make sense because he's a white boy.

The truth of your statements are debatable, as they equally fall into delusions of grandeur, hypocrisy, silliness, and generally making you out to look like a fool.

Baka Reiji, you make this so easy.

Seeing the flamewars that show up, we can never have peace through fanfiction. Now, peace through power, on the other hand...

Just be mindful of the pros and cons of melee vs ranged. Still, as Ark and TK must be kicking themselves now, since Barrier Jackets work better against spells than melee attacks, that means that melee can be viable.

My melee tends to take place in buildings and shit. Notice in Five Minutes that Franz went with beamfire first, closed the gap, then went melee.


You were away? Really? No wonder it was so nice and calm! :P


Franz: "Not so much that I don't like him... rather it's the realisation that Hayate has her own life to lead and I'm her friend but don't have any right to interfere in her life.
Naomi: "Emili-neechan wouldn't stop kicking him until he swore that he would follow what he said just now."
Glen: "And you were trying to freeze his balls off."
Naomi: "It's not like he uses them."


No, you're chopped cow. :P (I probably should clarify: you write romance that I don't care about.)


I hate to be the one saying this, and like this, but Tempest, Reiji here has more anger management, ego, self insertion and hypocrisy issues than anyone else on this thread. I recall you attacking Aaron for no good reason other than your ego.

Also, my mentioning of Tempest is due to him being a 40k fan. Notice how in that context I mentiond Kha, TK and Kagerou and the 40k fans who turned Haruhi into the God-Empress (and Myssa Rei uses Inquisition schools of thought - Almathian, etx etc - to describe Haruhists). It was an eyeroll at 40k.

So can the hypocrisy Reiji - it isn't as if you haven't regularly thrown shitfits and tantrums on OC.

/facepalm

I'm a little late, but this post is as good as me siccing Terminator 00 on both you and Reiji:

Is this a challenge? Is this an indication that in case I can't do it you can brew trouble? Are you scoffing at me?

Please, Reiji, this feels like sabotage already. I made a warning because I have the firm belief that I have enough qualification to bring about the matter. Saying something that serves to compromise the status of such statement can indirectly cause the lack of impact for the warning. And we don't want that now, do we?

I am confident that I have sufficient reasons and evidence to ratify my position as someone who can notify the moderators for the closure of this thread if ever. As such, I am WARNING you not to cause trouble.

Do not take ME lightly THIS time, Reiji. This is no longer a joking matter. I may not have the direct power of moderators. But I CAN talk them into it. I AM serious about this. And I will NOT let YOU ruin this peaceful status quo right now. NOR anyone else!

And to answer your question. YES, I CAN.



You can figure it out. I believe in you.



Yes.



First you challenge my statement and then now you try to get chummy with me?

Reiji, I do not want your or anybody else's support here. This is my own unilateral action, in case you didn't read thru my post thoroughly.


And what you're doing is an attack too. So stop, please. I already stopped Reiji from attacking you in the first place in IRC. (made him delete some unsavory comments towards you before you read them) Please don't ruin my hard work in trying to maintain some peace and quiet at least for now! ><



Can I throw a shitfit/tantrum, then?

Considering how you two like each other soooooo much...

Reiji, Goose, can you two good boys take this large vendetta of HATE OUTSIDE THE OC THREAD BEFORE YOU TAKE EVERYTHING TO HELL AGAIN?!?!?

No buts.

I'm accusing you two of making trouble? Yes, I am. Because you two are.

You're correct? I don't care. Doesn't matter. You like to be at each other's throats, and we don't want that.

You two won't fight? YES, YOU WILL if I don't stop you two.

It's not bad? It IS bad for the OCT health.

I don't have the right? I think I do.

There's a really cute and useful system called PM's here in Animesuki Forums. That should work well enough as a playpen for the two of you.

Thanks for listening.

Spoiler for Hayvali:

Setting: MC 86, on the home planet of the Remnant Belkan Empire.

It was a long day for Yagami Hayate. She resented so much of this delegation mission - the length, the rush, the fact that the actual purpose of the mission was minor bureaucratic details that she really didn't care about...it seems like she was sent here just to give her some busywork...oh well.

She was suprised at the rulers of the planet...the Lords. For the most part, they were young mages, just like her...even the "Pontifex" was just a few years older than she was. He certainly had a captivating face...white hair, deep blue eyes, and a look of regality. I guess being a "king" does that for you...

As she washed up and prepared for bed, she thought of tommorrow - more annoying bureaucratic work. God, why wouldn't they let her just go back to Midchilda and relax?

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door to her quarters.

"Who's there?" Hayate asked, suprised. Who would want to come at...she looked at the time...6:00 in the evening? She definitely thought it was a lot later.

She opened the door...and looked directly into the eyes of Pontifex Vivali Zeltisberg.

"H-h-hello your Lordship. What is it you wish to see me about?" Hayate stammered, wondering why in the world he would want to see her.

"Hmm...nothing really. But you seemed like you didn't want to be here. Does my kingdom displease you?" Vivali asked.

"Not at all...but I'm just a bit tired." Hayate answered.

"From all the work I take it...I understand. In any case, may I come in?" Vivali asked.

Hayate thought for a long moment. His eyes...they looked so deep, she felt that he could see right into her.

"Okay then," Hayate said.

Taking place 5 years after StrikerS, and not part of any canon, the TSAB passes a law that allows it to censor anything it so wishes. The Infinity Library on the other hand, refuses to submit to the TSAB authority, and led by Yuuno, begin working to stop the TSAB's Media Cleansing Force by grabbing books and data that the TSAB wants before the MCF can get to them.

This war for the most part played out on Mid itself, as the Infinity Library forms the Library Task Force, librarians based in libraries throughout Mid, which act as firebases in the censorship war.

Sides are drawn in this battle; the Saint Chuch is almost totally on the side of the TSAB and the MCF, particularly Anita's Inquisition, which forms a sizable element of the MCFs ORBAT; the Navy is for the most part ignoring this whole censorship squabble, and the Aces are being good soldiers and following the TSAB.

This is where the lines of the OCs are drawn.

Now at this point this is just brainstorming, okays?

- Kay joins the ILTF as an independant observer, chronicaling their exploits
- The Belkas quietly support the ILTF with cash and stuff, covertly, since all three of them are filthy rich and it makes more sense for them to be on the outside supporting the libraries - I may or may not imply that the Belkas are bankrolling the libraries
- Since the Libraries don't have that many mages short of the mages who defected to them, they use guns. Because of that, Gil has ended up being a firearms instructor, using guns from earth.

- Alternatively, the Erusians, looking to give the TSAB a black eye for general principles - and because they don't like whily-nily censorship of children's books - covertly supply the ILTF with body armor, weapons and ammo.

- the OFM: I'm thinking of having them on the MCF side, training MCF troops in how to counter people with guns. They are doing it half-assedly, however, since they're not too happy with the whole idea of the MCF.

Anybody else wanna suggest/expand? This is what I get from a 4-ep marathon of Toshokan Sensou (Library Wars).

No objections here since we totally agree (in concept ), but I will not stop snickering at the person who once dissed the Wild Ferret of the TSAB and the Astartes Libranicus now proposing crack about militant librarians. :3

I don't believe that SAFA members are all S+ or anything, but at the very least, I range their average from highly experienced AAs (( like that old grandma who decimated Fate/Nanoha )) to AAA+/- and such. And maybe one or 2 Zest-ish veteran S-rankers.

You've got to take into account that the Aces, while known for their skills, are also young, being the cream of the crop. AAA is extremely unnatural for a 9 years old, and S+ rank at 19 seems like a very high accomplishment even for geniuses.

I get it now. Just need to scale the TSAB back to the Belka bronze age. Fixed, and now I've got even MORE room to run villains amok.

Though I got to stop bitch-slapping US Foreign Policy using the TSAB as an effigy.

Also, a diversion I need, because I'm getting a bit tired of traditional OC stuff - and it was only a matter of time before I made this:

Spoiler for Long Crack is Long:

It is the year 2009. Humanity is taking its first steps to the stars. On Macross Island, the SDF-1 Macross prepares to be launched, a symbol of the UN might and power.

Then the unthinkable happens. A hidden defense mechanism is triggered. Alien ivaders are shot from the sky, but more come to take their place. The zentraedi, the alien giants whom the Variable Fighter series were intended to combat, have arrived.

Desperate, Captain Global orders a fold jump to the far side of the moon... and arrives at the edge of Pluto, with Macross City caught along with the carriers Promethus and Daedalus.

Now, the UN Space forces of the SDF-1 Macross are in the fight for their lives. They must travel from PLuto to earth, fighting a running battle while keeping the civillians inside the Macross safe and sound. With many pilots killed, they must rely on fresh, raw, untested recruits: volunteers from Macross City's civillian population. Upon the shoulders of these citizen soldiers rest the hopes of Earth's final defense against the aliens.

And standing alongside them, backing them up, are one group. They have written their names in the halls of Montezuma. They have landed on the shores of Tripoli. On the mountains of Iwo Jima they raised their flag high for all to see. And now, in Space War 1, they will add a new chapter to their long and distinguished history.

They are the Few and the Proud.

They are Marines.

Wild Goose presents
The Outer Cadia Macross Project

When the SDF-1 Macross folded, it carried with it not only UN Spacy squadrons, but also UN Marine Corps variable fighter squadrons, Destroid companies and infantry. The Marine Expeditionary Unit onboard the SDF-1 is commanded by Colonel Erick Long, and consists of the following elements:

* Ground Combat Element: 1 battalion of Infantry reinforced with 16 LAV-25 and numerous Destroid Tomahawks and Spartans, along with 3 Destroid Monsters for artilery support

* Air Combat Element: Consists of 3 Marine Variable Fighter squadrons. All squadrons operate VF-1M and VF-1Ns in the multirole configuration, with a number of VF-1Ds for training purposes.

* Logistics Combat Element

* Command Element: Colonel Long's HQ staff.

The Marine Corps uses 4 variants of the standard VF-1 Valkyrie: 2 variants are from the Spacy, while another 2 were designed for use by the Marine corps: the VF-1M and VF-1N. The VF-1M, aka "Marine Valk", is the standard Valkyrie in UNMC service, based off the VF-1B and enjoying roughly 85-95% parts commonality with its progenator. The VF-1N is issued to flight leads or Squadron leaders, and has 90% parts commonality with the VF-1J. The main differences between Marine Valks and their Spacy counterparts are that Marine Valks have their engines tuned to provide more power to their Energy Converting Armor; this results in a VF-1M enjoying better protection and armor than a VF-1B, at a cost of top speed. The second modification is a special housing for a purpose-built valkyrie-scale Ka-bar combat blade, the iconic knife of the USMC. The VF-1N is essentially identical to the VF-1J except for the additional Ka-bar and EC armor/engine tuning. VF-1Ds are used for training and recon, and one VF-1S is issued to Marine Lead, Major Glen Schattenmann, identical in all respects to the Navy VF-1S.

In addition to their Valkyries, the Marines also have several gunpod options unique to their service. Apart from the standard GU-11 55mm gunpod, a number of Marine Valkyries are deployed with the GU-12 65mm Designated Marksman Gunpod, a single-barrel long range gunpod with ammunition options for HEAP, HEAT, Depleted Uranium, tungsten penetrator and Fuel Air Explosive. The Marines also use the GU-5H gunpod, based off the 30mm GPU-5 gunpod used by the US Air Force, in the antipersonnel role, firing 30mm DU rounds.

Key cast members:

CO: Colonel Erick Long

VMFA-511 "Storm Riders"
CO: MAJ Glen "Shadow" Schattenmann (VF-1S)
XO: [Placeholder]
Storm 2: CPT Francis "Jack" Anderson (VF-1M)
Storm 3: 2LT Kha (VF-1M)
Storm 4: CPT Michael "Tempest" Zhang (VF-1M)

Storm 5: CPT "Low Gear" (VF-1N)

VFMA-461 "Heavy Hitters"
CO: MAJ TK "Total Kill" (VF-1N with GPB-1S Armored Valkyrie system)

* * * * *

And that's pretty much everyone I can remember at this point.

Basically, I'm writing crack about a UN Marine Corps onboard the Macross. Since I lack sufficient knowledge to make up new charecters I'm drafting OC authors into my fic :P

Signups are greatly welcomed. Please include the following details:

Name
Height
Weight
Eye Color
Skintone
Ethnicity
Nationality & Country of Origin
Short Bio
Role: Infanty, Destroid, Valk Pilot.

The whole purpose of this is for the OCs to give a hand to the CCs, however. We aren't taking over their show. And also I want to write classic macross Crack.

Oh and Kha's the only person with contractual immunity; I'm using anyone can die since that's what Macross used. However, be assured that you will be informed in advance before you are killed - and that if you die, it will be at the very least a Bronze Star death.

Unless it's Death By Miriya, who can kill just with fanservice. -_-

And goodnight all. I'll be expecting your comments in a few hours from now...

I don't know if that was a mistake, but you really went and called the combat knife a K(h)a-bar...

And for great justice, I must mention that Anita is in this production too. Not in the Marines, but having a rather important role as well.




Concluding intervention. Good night.

EDIT: Oh I almost forgot to show Keroko this latest addition to the Genderbent movement.

General Grevia VS Obi-wan Keroko anyone?

[Kyral]

After I remade Rinya's ID Cardm I had the idea to make some improvements to Elric.

I replaced the two pictures of his Device in Range Mode and Sealed Mode with a single picture, like I did with Rinya's Device.

Spoiler for Carnage:

I also added two new pictures to help visualize some details of my character.

Spoiler for Other:

The armoured segments of the fingers are claw like, but can be retracted to allow manipulation of objects without scratching or piercing them.


Elric bandages his forearm to hide Carnages veins.

And I must say, this picture I found in the Image Thread pretty much fits my Dark Future Setting :3

You have to recall that the Cradle's launch only took several minutes, and the Cradle was a weapon of unknown capabillities. Scrambling what you have and throwing it at an unknown enemy looks like suicide waiting to happen even from my non-millitairy point of view.

Hmm, I think the key here lies more with the 'villains and aliens I've created' part rather then the TSAB's competence. What we've seen in the series were hardly average cases, maybe the first half of the first season would be 'average' but just like how very few mages in the TSAB get beyond B-rank, very few villains would too.

Besides, elite enemies are made to be taken down by elite heroes, not nameless grunts. :3

At the end, the B-ranks and below had risen to AA and A rank. That's pretty hefty for a unit that's not even an 'elite' unit by name.

The problem is that everything we throw at them is aimed to be solved by our heroes, which means our threats are above average. That's hardly the TSAB's fault.

Though... Thrall and his space orks?

The battle was over, it had been a fight that should not have been won. But in the end, we did.

But at what cost?

My heart wrenched, unable to accept the toll that was paid for victory.

I did not want to.

I would gladly pay any toll. I would kill myself on the spot, I would give up my soul to the grail if one had asked me to.

But not her.

Anything but her.

"...Looks like I did something stupid again."

My head raised to meet those sky blue eyes. Sadness tore through my heart again as I watched her raise a brave front.

She was never good at hiding emotions, only expressing them.

The figure was no longer human. In appearance, yes, but even then one could see that she wasn't like any other human.

The red hair, the blue eyes, the black outfit, all seemed faded.

And in reallity, they were. Translucence does that.

"Heh, guess this time it was one mistake too many, huh?" she grinned.

"..." I tried to speak, but no words would leave my mouth. She had sacrificed herself to allow us to live.

"Hey, come on, its not like we won't see eachother again, all you have to do is summon me in the next battle!"

A bravado, as usual. But not without a core of the truth. Her actions in life had made her a hero, and in her death, she had accended to the Throne of Heroes.

"...Yeah, I will summon you next time, I promise."

Finally words could leave my throat again.

"Heh." Her bravado faltered, and her body began to fade more. But before she vanished completely, a bright smile made her way to her tear stained eyes.

"Till next time!" she shouted before a gust of wind blew, and the Ace of the Skies was no more.

To be honest... I'm quit proud of it, so it would piss me off to see a slighty modified copy of my design.

But as long it dosn't look too much like Carnage you're pretty much free to go.

Well... Carnage is based on a Predator's Wrist Blades/Forearm Computer mixed with Midchilda Device typical characteristics.

I'm sure you can come up with your own Equip Device easily.

[Comartemis]

To be honest... I'm quit proud of it, so it would piss me off to see a slighty modified copy of my design.

You should be quite proud of it, it looks very nice.

I'm sure you can come up with your own Equip Device easily.

I'm sure I could (what's an Equip Device? Did I miss that somewhere?), but as it so happens, Carnage or something like it would work very nicely as Vivio's weapon (on second thought, not Gurren. G's supposed to be somewhat clunky and drill-oriented), complete with the claws from the gloves she wore on the Cradle.

Also I'm not much of an artist either in or out of photoshop, so it'd be really difficult for me to whip up this kind of reference image on my own... unless you know of a repository of high-tech/fantasy weapon images somewhere on the net....

[Keroko]

Actually, Vivio's weapon is less of a claw, its more of a duster knuckle. Perfect for getting close and punching (which is why I gave a device like that to Syn :3)

It's the form of the Device.

On the official ID Cards I saw that Mach Calibur and Blitz Calibur are descriped as "Intelligent / Equip", and Kerykeion as "Boost / Equip". While Raising Heart and Bardiche for example are both "Intelligent / Rod".
So I figured that Equip means that the device is worn like a glove or shoe.

I once saw a picture of Sankt Kaiser Vivio with some kind of Claw Device that gave her these pretty scary big clawlike fingers. So I pretty much know what you mean.
I also once had the Idea to give Vivio Carnage in the future... but I dropped that again.

Originally Posted by Comartemis

Ah sorry... can't help you with that.
I draw most of my stuff myself and don't have much need in searching the internet for something like that.

[Comartemis]

Eh. I've had all kinds of ideas for Vivio's device. I'm still hashing out what I want to do with the story I'm working on (though I think my latest idea is a pretty solid one), but I've got most of the devices for my characters set in stone.

Rico gets Gurren, which is basically the forearm unit of Gurren Lagann. A standard dual gauntlet-style device like RK coupled with a pair of boots, its' first boosted form consists of drill units that come out the sides of each gauntlet to enhance penetration on Rico's punches, and Flier Fin-style wings on the boots to provide a speed boost. The Full Drive form causes the armor of the boots and gauntlets to extend up Rico's legs and arms, and the units sprout a bunch of Strada-style rocket boosters to enhance Rico's speed even further and render him flight-capable. His control over the rockets coupled with a bunch of tricks, spells, and special maneuvers he invented make him a match for most dedicated air combat mages in this form.

The other devices are somewhat less developed but I still have general ideas of what I want from the other characters... except Vivio. I'm really not sure what to do with her. I don't want to take the obvious route and give her an RH knockoff, so my initial thought was a double-ended halberd/RH hybrid. Then I got to thinking about hand-to-hand combat and thought of those gloves, and from there I somehow jumped to giving her a pair of Riot Zamber storage devices. Gah, need guidance much.

That's the whole point for them being scattered to the winds. Also Kha, seriously, which has more firepower: a single Obelisk supporting laser turrets, or a fucking wall of Obelisks?

Kha, you do realise, don't you, that the Gespenst is at best a C to B-rank unit? The only reason it's viable is because 1) Kai is fucking BADASS and 2) the Gespenst variants are A/AA-rank equivalent. Gespensts are puny cannon fodder. Until Kai gets his hand on one, that is, but then Kai is like the God of Gespensts.

Interesting drabble, though where did all the gunmen get their guns from?

Magical gun devices.

No objections here since we totally agree (in concept ), but I will not stop snickering at the person who once dissed the Wild Ferret of the TSAB and the Astartes Libranicus now proposing crack about militant librarians. :3

I still find that a bit hard, but I might be faster than you if I ever reach the Nanoka series. So go ahead, my good dragonette!

I still diss your libranicus and Wild Ferret. :P In Library Wars, Yuuno's role is as leader/symbol paperwork dude, because with the loss of his leg he's no longer as comfortable about going out into the world and fighting anymore. Besides, as I mentioned, the Library Task Force for the most part acts defensively, unlike your Libranicus which intervened wily-nily.

I don't know if that was a mistake, but you really went and called the combat knife a K(h)a-bar...

I looked it up. The knife is typically pronounced "K-bar", but is spelt "Ka-bar". I pwns you.

And for great justice, I must mention that Anita is in this production too. Not in the Marines, but having a rather important role as well.

That's right. She's having hawt yuri sexxor with micloned Meltran pairotto.

I look at this and I facepalm. How does an organization like this administrate Time Space? 99% of the villains and aliens I've created will WTFpwn these lassies. As much as I wish that the TSAB has maybe an ounce of a horde army to make up for the sorry lack of power, but so far, it looks hopeless.

I guess I was right that a small detachment of Necrons could hold the counter-invasion force at bay with ease in CrosyS. And TSAB forces get slaughtered at Meggido.

Which also brings me to the next theory being pushed forward that the TSAB actually controls only a handful of stars, not the hundreds and hundreds AWs that we may have thought possible. Most of the worlds they've know of fall under NAW status, and this giant ring of desolate worlds is what's cushioning them from the harsh realities of the greater multiverse that destroyed an Empire that once truly administrated these worlds.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...which is why the TSAB is actually much more hopeless than we've made them to be. They can take on NOTHING outside their comfort zones. Because given the amount of spellshaping needed to battle the likes of Necrons, Spawn, Chaos Belka, heck even Thrall and his Space Orcs, these guys either need more gear, or need more levels.

So far all I can see is that they can control the threat of Nod, and only just. Sad to say, when the crunch comes, the responsibility of defending Ordered Space would fall solely on SOPCC, the Saint Guard and whatever remnant of the old GDI that steps up.

Or you could just you know NOT make wanktastic villains with no basis in canon and then whine that they’re too strong for the TSAB to fight... Really IMO this is stupid instead of making these wanked out villains and then having to derail canon EVEN MORE by inventing shit to try and stop them why not I don’t know make villains the TSAB can reasonably fight to start with. You keep ranting about how the universe is full of big bad scary stuff, but the fact is canon shows none of this which forces us to conclude that you know maybe the Nanoha verse just isn’t that dangerous and the TSAB army is adequate for what it has to deal with most of the time. Canada doesn’t need a fleets of nuclear carriers, missiles, and bombers for instance and perhaps, just PERHAPS the TSAB knows more about the space it lives in then we do and doesn’t need massive numbers of heavy weapons either. An insane idea I know, and one I’m sure you’ll merrily ignore to keep whining about how weak the TSAB is compared to your latest superpowered evil doer.

At some point it just gets to be that the issue isn’t with the TSAB or Nanoha it’s with all of you ramming stuff from other universes which is WAY overpowered into the setting and then realizing “huh you know I don’t think the good guys could really stop this…” This is YOUR fault and frankly not canons. I built the villains in my fic around what we see in Nanoha dangerous, but in universe and of a level that the TSAB and the good guys can reasonably fight. You’re approach meanwhile seems to be “take random super powered evil doers from another universe, apply only most vague Nanoha trappings, proceed to whine that resulting force is WAY too powerful for the TSAB to fight.” Well NO SHIT if I took say the Daedalus from Stargate and rammed in into Marcoss it would be hideously overpowered and basiclly unstoppable just rampaging over everything. Which is hardly Macross’s fault! It’s also coincidently a damn good reason why you shouldn’t do it…

Interesting drabble, though where did all the gunmen get their guns from?

What part of “machine gun shaped device” was unclear? I don’t mind questions, but I’d prefer they not be questions with bleedingly obvious answers right in the text.

Also, a diversion I need, because I'm getting a bit tired of traditional OC stuff - and it was only a matter of time before I made this:

Spoiler for Long Crack is Long:

It is the year 2009. Humanity is taking its first steps to the stars. On Macross Island, the SDF-1 Macross prepares to be launched, a symbol of the UN might and power.

Then the unthinkable happens. A hidden defense mechanism is triggered. Alien ivaders are shot from the sky, but more come to take their place. The zentraedi, the alien giants whom the Variable Fighter series were intended to combat, have arrived.

Desperate, Captain Global orders a fold jump to the far side of the moon... and arrives at the edge of Pluto, with Macross City caught along with the carriers Promethus and Daedalus.

Now, the UN Space forces of the SDF-1 Macross are in the fight for their lives. They must travel from PLuto to earth, fighting a running battle while keeping the civillians inside the Macross safe and sound. With many pilots killed, they must rely on fresh, raw, untested recruits: volunteers from Macross City's civillian population. Upon the shoulders of these citizen soldiers rest the hopes of Earth's final defense against the aliens.

And standing alongside them, backing them up, are one group. They have written their names in the halls of Montezuma. They have landed on the shores of Tripoli. On the mountains of Iwo Jima they raised their flag high for all to see. And now, in Space War 1, they will add a new chapter to their long and distinguished history.

They are the Few and the Proud.

They are Marines.

Wild Goose presents
The Outer Cadia Macross Project

When the SDF-1 Macross folded, it carried with it not only UN Spacy squadrons, but also UN Marine Corps variable fighter squadrons, Destroid companies and infantry. The Marine Expeditionary Unit onboard the SDF-1 is commanded by Colonel Erick Long, and consists of the following elements:

* Ground Combat Element: 1 battalion of Infantry reinforced with 16 LAV-25 and numerous Destroid Tomahawks and Spartans, along with 3 Destroid Monsters for artilery support

* Air Combat Element: Consists of 3 Marine Variable Fighter squadrons. All squadrons operate VF-1M and VF-1Ns in the multirole configuration, with a number of VF-1Ds for training purposes.

* Logistics Combat Element

* Command Element: Colonel Long's HQ staff.

The Marine Corps uses 4 variants of the standard VF-1 Valkyrie: 2 variants are from the Spacy, while another 2 were designed for use by the Marine corps: the VF-1M and VF-1N. The VF-1M, aka "Marine Valk", is the standard Valkyrie in UNMC service, based off the VF-1B and enjoying roughly 85-95% parts commonality with its progenator. The VF-1N is issued to flight leads or Squadron leaders, and has 90% parts commonality with the VF-1J. The main differences between Marine Valks and their Spacy counterparts are that Marine Valks have their engines tuned to provide more power to their Energy Converting Armor; this results in a VF-1M enjoying better protection and armor than a VF-1B, at a cost of top speed. The second modification is a special housing for a purpose-built valkyrie-scale Ka-bar combat blade, the iconic knife of the USMC. The VF-1N is essentially identical to the VF-1J except for the additional Ka-bar and EC armor/engine tuning. VF-1Ds are used for training and recon, and one VF-1S is issued to Marine Lead, Major Glen Schattenmann, identical in all respects to the Navy VF-1S.

In addition to their Valkyries, the Marines also have several gunpod options unique to their service. Apart from the standard GU-11 55mm gunpod, a number of Marine Valkyries are deployed with the GU-12 65mm Designated Marksman Gunpod, a single-barrel long range gunpod with ammunition options for HEAP, HEAT, Depleted Uranium, tungsten penetrator and Fuel Air Explosive. The Marines also use the GU-5H gunpod, based off the 30mm GPU-5 gunpod used by the US Air Force, in the antipersonnel role, firing 30mm DU rounds.

Key cast members:

CO: Colonel Erick Long

VMFA-511 "Storm Riders"
CO: MAJ Glen "Shadow" Schattenmann (VF-1S)
XO: [Placeholder]
Storm 2: CPT Francis "Jack" Anderson (VF-1M)
Storm 3: 2LT Kha (VF-1M)
Storm 4: CPT Michael "Tempest" Zhang (VF-1M)

Storm 5: CPT "Low Gear" (VF-1N)

VFMA-461 "Heavy Hitters"
CO: MAJ TK "Total Kill" (VF-1N with GPB-1S Armored Valkyrie system)

* * * * *

And that's pretty much everyone I can remember at this point.

Basically, I'm writing crack about a UN Marine Corps onboard the Macross. Since I lack sufficient knowledge to make up new charecters I'm drafting OC authors into my fic :P

Signups are greatly welcomed. Please include the following details:

Name
Height
Weight
Eye Color
Skintone
Ethnicity
Nationality & Country of Origin
Short Bio
Role: Infanty, Destroid, Valk Pilot.

The whole purpose of this is for the OCs to give a hand to the CCs, however. We aren't taking over their show. And also I want to write classic macross Crack.

Oh and Kha's the only person with contractual immunity; I'm using anyone can die since that's what Macross used. However, be assured that you will be informed in advance before you are killed - and that if you die, it will be at the very least a Bronze Star death.

Unless it's Death By Miriya, who can kill just with fanservice. -_-

And goodnight all. I'll be expecting your comments in a few hours from now...

Yes now Nanoha stuffs.... ergh coming later. <.<

Meh I prefer the Colonization era myself more hooks and areas for OC adventuring, I acutally have OCs in that era already and OC ships (and thousands and thousands of words of fluff)! I think the 35th Galaxy Deep Patrol Fleet and the 7th Special Operations Group of VF-17s, 22s, 19s, 11s, and VAB-2s might be slightly out of place in 2009 though…

That said this gives me and idea... Macross OC thread?! Spread teh madness for the lulz!

I don't quite like the idea of sit-back-and-watch-them-overrun-you-before-intervening either. Knowing bureaucracy, chances are when the full scramble goes out, there'd be a chance that even the elites would be overwhelmed given their small numbers and the loss of the spam units. I learnt that the hard way in 40K, after playing my Commander agressively while the rest of the army lagged behind. Hotblooded yes, but sometimes Shas'O Ka died without doing significant damage.

Besides, elite enemies are made to be taken down by elite heroes, not nameless grunts. :3

Elite heroes can't be everywhere at once. I curbed the Necron threat by severely limiting their numbers and forcing them via lore into a corner. Even then, they still put up an amazing fight.

Once the Wanderer is prepared however...

At the end, the B-ranks and below had risen to AA and A rank. That's pretty hefty for a unit that's not even an 'elite' unit by name.

I'm not quite sure what you mean here, but from my understanding of canon, Riot 6 had to take limiters because of that overwhelming firepower in a non-elite unit. At least in a unit with dubious political alignment, and so were not likely to be granted the same level of trust as one of the higher-up's pet elites.

My inference from that is:

1. Average units with proper power distribution needs no limiter.

2. It is possible for said pet elites to bypass the Accumulation of Power restriction. Given the nature of their work, what they routinely come up against, and their very strong allies high up in the administration, I believe that is so.

The number of elite mages in the general population then become a limiting factor in the proliferation of such units though...

If TSAB had more tanks, armor and support craft, and throw in a Comissar or two, maybe they'd have the firepower to backup all that Leadership 10 while waiting for the enemy to fail a test.

Unfortunately, with the revisions to the other races other than Spawn and Necron, Leadership is less of a problem to them, which means the TSAB isn't at much more of an advantage. And that's assuming their crappy strategy is just because of the defenders being messed around by the Brains, and only after the wannabe Aeolias got the bump were they able to scrape together something. If not, it shows that the TSAB doesn't even have Leadership 10... How much more gimped can they get in our abnormal multiverse?

Finally words could leave my throat again.

"Heh." Her bravado faltered, and her body began to fade more. But before she vanished completely, a bright smile made her way to her tear stained eyes.

"Till next time!" she shouted before a gust of wind blew, and the Ace of the Skies was no more.

Crack hammers are heavy when they hit you on the head.

Kha summoned Alistina instead of Vivio I guess?

But I was talking about changing the KhaxNanoha alternate ending for Fate that I created for Cente Gravia that has no equivalent in FSN. Have Keroko instead, or Kha winning both sisters. :3

But I'll give it a thought. Heck, ideas start bubbling already...

And yes, maybe I should give Keroko a scenario with a magical beam-blade fighting this terror.

I think both are frost-spec'd actually, just that while Rein is a true Mage, the Belka Discipline tree for Confessors included choices for magical specialization like warriors do.

0_0 Holy damn. For me, its when I got a spot for Gruul's it didn't drop when it dropped for other raids.

The terror that resided in Northrend has been defeated...or so they thought.

As the old saying goes: "Behind every great man is a great woman."

A new threat has arisen.

Wrath of the Lich Queen

Prepare to be...befriended

Though given the mess we've created, I'd call it Warcraft Galaxies.

Depends on the laser turret density.

Though I must admit, even with their combined firepower, that rarely penetrates the high Invulnerable Saves of elite villains, and I'm not even talking about those who Feel No Pain on top of that...

And I'm weighing the political risk of the unit going on a rampage VS the unit being unable to cope with the power level of the threat. Not like the US is worried of her Marines turning on her, despite Bush's stupidity, doesn't it?

Gespensts are puny cannon fodder. Until Kai gets his hand on one, that is, but then Kai is like the God of Gespensts.

Hmm... Damn.

That's only because I haven't bothered to give that Khrack first pass metabolism into something more reasonable, which you have definitely done.

I first learnt its name, now I learn how to spell. Like I said, I'm no mil-otaku, or I wouldn't be rebelling. :3

Oh yes this again.

@TK: Yes I'm complaining because I thought of them to be better and now I got to change things. But it's minimal; just shrunk TSAB area of control to match its power.
