>>23374217 (OP)[This is a bit of an unusual vote, but it pertains to how /m/ will want me to handle this final chapter. After observing how the AI has been acting so far, I believe the game is honestly unsure of how to process the Tem Ray Faction being active since it was never intended to be fought against as the player. I've given them ample resources, money and spawned them some really deadly equipment, and yet the game is intent on doing some...questionable things with them. So here is what I am proposing...]
[Option 1: "Do not interfere with the games AI and let it do as it wants." Some actual legendary retardation will likely come from this, but I will have to write on stuff I can't fully predict.]
[Option 2: Hard control the opposing factions production and lock aces enemy aces into thematically appropriate machines. It does take away a good deal of the surprise of the game, but will keep the story a bit more (for where we are now) on track.]
>Option 1 or 2?https://strawpoll.com/BJnXVxG0xZv
>>23374247Meme run is fine conceptually but this has been a serious run so far (as serious as we have allowed it to be with our choices, anyway).
I think option 2 is probably going to make for a more fun experience.
Wait, did Haman actually call her kid "The Emperor" in the last thread?
Also, I picked Option 2 because I love turning my brain off and reading dumb fanfic that actually makes sense instead of letting ChatGPT write actual schizo fanfic for me.
>>23374247I had this exact issue with the Titans/Axis split when I did the Revil run. You need to hard control them. It's honestly just the AI not being very good, think about how often in Revil games Solomon is just Abandoned. I had to seriously delay Star-One just so an actual fight could take place there.
Are we really still planning on betraying Haman for Sarah? Are we really willing to throw a hard working single mother, just trying to do right by her lonely bastard child, under the bus like this?
>>23374247>Some actual legendary retardation will likely come from thisColor me curious, but I know that the type of retardation that will come up from not being able to process a player faction as enemy will most likely result in the entities being literally passive to any aggro and not fireback, kinda like when you hit an ally in FF.
Option 2 is a workaround, but it's not a solution to this problem, you'll probably have to get someone into touching the AI scripting to properly fix this issue.
>>23374275It all depends the Ray Army have fought Neo Zeon troops when in battle. I think so long as that works (no reason it shouldn't) then this is just Copy guiding both sides. Which can be as simple as laying out what the Ray armies theatres of war and goals are, and then following it like a set of instructions.
Is this why Tianem and Hayato abandoned space btw?
>>23374263Solomon gets abandoned by Zeon because the AI prioritizes holding A Boa and Side 3. It estimates the chances of holding them for more than one turn is nil, so it folds.
This also happens if you collapse all but two connected bases during side faction runs in one turn (Tem vs Gyrps 2 and Luna 2, all units at Luna 2 evacuated to Gryps becausethere are not enough units to hold Gyrps).
I say let it happen, I'm tired of Amuro being retarded enough to join the Titans in this run.
>>23374247Hard Control, there isn't going to be much of a story with how the AI is acting.
>>23374305>I say let it happen, I'm tired of Amuro being retarded enough to join the Titans in this run.Than maybe you should have had Char be honest instead of hiding his real plans. Also all Amuro did in the TItans was kill Bask and his goons. Not sure why you're making a big deal out of it.
>>23374331>Than maybe you should have had Char be honest instead of hiding his real plans. Also all Amuro did in the TItans was kill Bask and his goons. Not sure why you're making a big deal out of it.They have been making "AMURO JOINED THE TITANS" their impetus to be mad at him for an age. Just like how Sleggar was stupid for thinking we would ever go Full Zeon.
Oh.
Wait.
Haman quitting being a pilot and letting Sarah take the reigns so she can devote her time to being a fulltime parent to an abomination that shouldn't exist is kinda adorable and echos what Char said earlier about Sayla and how the battlefield is no place for a mother. It is kinda different from how she was with Mineva where she still juggled both.
>Mirai has kids goes off to war
>Sayla has kids goes off to war
>Kuzco has a kid and goes off to war
>Haman has a kid and stays home to raise them
Huh. Copy X was this intentional or do I need to stop doing nitrous?
>>23374274>Are we really still planning on betraying Haman for Sarah?Quest vibe has been confused ever since the end of ZZ arc but I think it's fair to say this is the general attitude
>>23374368Haman already got everything she wanted by this point. Earth is effectively dead. Mankind are stuck in the colonies under her puppets authority. She has a monopoly on the Deikun bloodline as far as she knows (If she finds out about Sayla I wonder if she will want them dead or to claim them for herself)
I do wonder if she really is our enemy though. Sarahโs war is just to selfishly kill all Oldtypes to pave the way for her ruling with Kamille. Hamans plan (while kinda fucked in the short term) at least offers a future for both Old and Newtypes to live.
It's not over until TOTAL ZEEK DEATH
>>23374363Yeah, feels like we're just playing Axis with AEUG tech at this point.
>>23374331>>23374363Nah, don't put words in my mouth. I honestly would have preferred Amuro to join up or stay on Earth rather than do the entire Gryps 2 showdown, reduce things down to 'yes' or 'no'. The entire shebang was a mess made by previous bad choices.
But, that's expected from Zeta Gundam.
>>23374380>Hamans plan (while kinda fucked in the short term) at least offers a future for both Old and Newtypes to live.Building up a caste system inevitability leads to revolt by either the underclass deciding they've had enough or the upperclass finding out their indentured servants are dead and no longer can wipe their asses for them.
>>23374392And then what?
Earth Federation is functionally dead and AEUG can apparently be hijacked by anyone who feels like it during intermissions.
What does "total Zeek death" even mean any more? Just Side 3? Everyone affiliated with "Orthodox Zeon"? Or all spacenoids? The lines are so blurred, I am still waiting to feel like we have something worth fighting for here. I'm still voting, and they aren't spite votes, but I don't really see the purpose of this phase of the game yet. What has happened to our faction is more demoralising than the whole Earth getting ravaged.
>Char got his bloodline continued in the way he wanted and the way he didn't want to
T
>>23374437Which is why she seems so intent con rendering Earth worthless for survival. By trapping mankind in the colonies and killing anyone who would dare to rise up she effectively has what little that remains of humanity under her control. Would not be surprised if she wanted this war to break out to justify the collateral damage removing more options from mankind. (All of this over Char/Amuros demented relationship by the way)
>>23374453>retards decided to TZD at all costs>ends up being run by zeeksyou know there's a lesson in here somewhere, but that might be my centrist ass pulling something out of thin air.
Did Chara Soon breastfeed her children asking for a friend named Toshituki Yomino.
>>23374461>that might be my centrist ass pulling something out of thin air.It totally is.
>>23374453>And then what?Speedrun to Victory Gundam.
The Jovians will get the cake. As disgusting as the notion feels.
Which on second thought it's the necessary 2nd step, TJD
>>23374492>we never got a Gihren's Greed game with Victory content so we can properly genocide the Jovians like they deserveLife hurts.
>>23374492Iโve got the darndest theory that Haman has already taken care of that problem. There is no way she just handed them Axis with no strings attached.
>>23374247What other questionable moves has the AI made this run?
>>23374461I think the problem was we were going โTotal Zeek Deathโ while completely forgetting that during the beginning in our quest to fuck over the Titans we fucked over the Federation pretty hard early-game resulting in heavy Zeon influence within the AEUG. Plus, the suicidal mission to save the earth was, in fact, suicidal and we lost most of our heroes thanks to RNG.
Letting Dozle live only for Char to make an assassination attempt did not help.
>>23374567Nah, the first thing was Blex's death, then Gryps, then the suicide mission. Blex and Gryps was recoverable, the suicide mission had everyone just throw their hands in the air.
>>23374584zz had gone really well until the colonies. I think the death blow was siding with orthodox zeon fully instead of partially (stopping them from killing the feddies but denouncing the feds, presumably becoming independant from them) and siding with them directly
im honestly barely aware of whats going on, i denounced in hopes that wong would actually live and we would just fight both but im honestly just not sure what the plot even is anymore
>>23374567It seems like the AI just sat around with an OP Amuro and Nu Gundam instead of actually using him. So as one would expect the The OP OZ Ace loyalist proceed to steam roll over the Ray Army. This scenario makes more sense to play from the Ray army prospective with how weak and under Aced they are. Their only wins seem to have come from the transition assault event and they've lost every fight ever since.
Let the AI control it. We have been making retarded decisions all this time, it's time to see what natural course look like after all this. We should have trusted the Jovian spies that we paid for instead of going into a dead trap that they warned us for.
>>23374655Also all the Ray army intermission feel like Copy X trying to come up with reasons for why Ray army is so passive and defensive(the AI sucks at that too) after starting an open rebellion against OZ and it's allies.
>>23374667We could start a civil war and the Ray army would still get easily steam rolled. That's how bad the AI is. It probably wouldn't even intervene unless Copy x forces it to.
>>23374679That bad? I thought it's a bit better but I guess this scenario isn't account for in the game's code. If that's the case, then letting Copy X control may make for a good fight. But humanity has made insane and stupid choices this run so I guess it's fitting for a tragedy story if letting AI control.
>>23374685It sounds like Copy X is having the Halo 3 enemy elite problem. Where elites were never designed to be enemies so if you just make them hostile their hostile AI is incredibly pathetic.
>>23374247[Going forward, AI production for the Ray Faction will be handled by me to ensure they do not randomly waste their budget and/or delete their best assets]
The Ray Factions forces find themselves pushed from both Asia and Australia. Disorganized and unable to properly regroup at the moment, their armed forces retreat for both Hawaii and Jaburo to hold their defenses until additional machines can be produced to bolster their faltering war effort.
>Asherah:...Thank goodness she was taken unharmed->Emma: Nobody here knows what to do with her. She's...changed so much. If there is anything on that colony that you and Judau have been living that could help her, I beg of you to-Asherah's communication to the Nahel Argama is abruptly interrupted by an emergency request from space. Through their network of intelligence, it has been discovered that a prototype design that had been stolen from Anaheim years ago has begun its final stages of construction in Hawaii. Concerned this new weapon would allow the Ray Army to shift their losses, Command has requested that not only the prototype be capture or destroyed, but that the infamous head of the "GS" company currently operating in Hawaii be executed immediately. Realizing that unless she were to attack with the scattered forces across the Pacific immediately, this new prototype would reach its completion.
>What attack plan will be authorized?https://strawpoll.com/PKglejX39Zp
>>23374714I like the middle option because it's the middle option.
>>23374714What would be (at least an idea of) our mobile suits in question? That'll determine which one I pick.
>>23374733x1 EX-S Gundam
x15 GM III
x3 Nero
>>23374734>19 units vs 13>one of thems an ace in an endgame suitunless amuro shows up we got this
>>23374714I'm going with attack immediately, to give the AI a chance. Wonder if it will bite us in the end if we win this arc too fast.
>>23374714Blitz it and steal that prototype. A stitch in time etc.
>>23374714the GS Company?
Speaking of which, what does the "GS" in the names of the updated ships stand for?
>>23374760"Genius Sonority". It is an OC technical division headed by the memory loss suffering Scirocco. His enhancements on any design brought through the "GS" process are shown to be immensely more powerful, at the immense cost of them being exorbitantly expensive to develop.
>>23374760No one knows.
IT HAS BEEN 25 YEARS AND NEVER HAS BEEN OPENED
THIS BALL IS A DUD
>>23374770>Sciroccos gonna make the best pokemon gamesShit now we gotta get rid of the aeug
Did Haman use a test tube or did she do IVF? I need to know because the idea of a post-pregnancy MILF Haman is making me actually feral.
>>23374714Choosing to move forward with leading a blitz on Hawaii, Asherah requests for the Nahel Argama unit to deploy for Hawaii as well to rally alongside her and the other forces attacking the reinforced islands. As she and the battalions at California Base deploy to attack, Chan and Richard look upon the nearly completed "Penelope" Gundam.
>Chan: Its taken years, but this will finally give us the edge we need to end this.>Richard: Young lady, Amuro has the highest faith in your abilities. Don't disappoint us. >Quess: Who do you think your talking to? I am more than strong enough to->Amuro: Quess! Keep your ego in check! You will have the chance to prove yourself soon enough!Hushing herself, Quess fantasizes about stealing Amuro for herself upon gaining the power of the Penelope. As she anxiously awaits for its completion, Amuro walks alongside Richard to discuss the True Nu's full capabilities.
>Amuro: The waterproofing can't be done?>Richard: Not with its current equipment. Sir, they will have no choice but to attack the island directly. When they do, they will be facing the most powerful Mobile Suit ever constructed. Do my masterpiece proud.>Amuro: Of course.
>>23374746I JINXED US!!!!
>>23374867Making landing on the most northern island of Hawaii, Asherah feels an intense pressure assaulting her senses. As she looks out to the vast ocean surrounding her, she feels not only the overwhelming power of Amuro, but of another, potentially even stronger Newtype on its mainland.
>Asherah: (Was I to anxious to attack? This...it has to be Amuro. I can't hesitate...if I do, then all of this will be-)Feeling the sensation of Amuro leaving the mainland of Hawaii, Asherah grows increasingly nervous as she senses the leader of the Ray Army approaching her from beneath the ocean.
>Asherah: (I can't hesitate...I can't hesitate...I can't...!!)While the majority of Amuro's forces mobilize to attack the battalion moving in from California, Asherah boosts her transformed EX-S Gundam towards Amuro's sensation, intent on ambushing him before she can be attacked first.
>Richard: Amuro, what are you doing?! Why did you leave the island?! >Amuro: Mezun's squadron took to many forces to intercept the California attack units! Whatever is approaching, its far to dangerous to leave unattended!>Richard: The Nu can not handle the oceans pressure! Its weapons systems will implode if it sinks to deeply! Retreat! Get back here!>Quess: Will you keep it down? Amuro knows what he is->Richard: No! God no! Not my masterpiece!!>Quess:...Wait, is he actually in danger? T-the Penelope! Get it ready for my-Boosting towards the submarine containing Amuro and over a dozen other Mobile Suits, Asherah pistons the EX-S's G-Cruiser mode to aim for the ocean, firing a direct shot towards the submarine containing the leader of the Ray Army.
>>23374875I was at work so couldn't post, but this is why I chose to attack but have Asherah wait so it would be a wave tactic, not dissimilar to how a player would start a attack while waiting for their forces to arrive
>>23374881I was also thinking that but the quality of our troops made me think "We should at least send Asherah as backup then have the gundam team come in if things get rough."
>>23374883well we can only hope amuro being retarded enough to use the Nu Gundam in the one other place it can't be used well in would make a difference
>>23374867>Quess is assigned the PenelopeGuys, I think we got this
>>23374877[This is a note for all the players regarding the earlier vote about AI control. Even after taking control over its production and getting it back on track, it has proceeded to make the absolute dumb fucking call I have ever seen in this game by sticking the True Nu into a submarine craft, away from the Hawaiian mainland to ensure if it is sunk, everyone not in a base jabber craft will be shot down. On that note...]
As a hole is blown through the hull of the U-Con submarine, Amuro attempts to boost out from the depths of the ocean to engage Asherah...only for the True Nu's complex weapons systems to malfunction under the intense pressure of the ocean.
>Amuro: (How did they know I was here?! Not...not like this! Not when so many were...Quess, Sayla...Char...I-)>Asherah: (Y-you...! Your the reason everyone is fighting right now!)>Amuro: (A womans voice?)As the True Nu's weapons systems begin to implode on themselves, Amuro sees the visage Asherah above the oceans waves, with him realizing precisely who she is in that moment of confusion.
>Amuro: (You...! Your Kuzco and Brights-)>Asherah: (Your the one that mother hated so much...y-you should just fall to the bottom of the ocean and stop bothering everyone!)Feeling Amuro's emotions as his Mobile Suit sinks deeper into the ocean, Asherah feels a pang of doubt in herself as she feels Amuro's genuine desire to only cease the cycle of bloodshed that has consumed Earth and space. Even so...Asherah can not release her lingering anger towards a man her mother had come to loathe.
>Amuro: (Asherah! If you are truly your own person, you have to stop that woman! Haman Karn is a phantom of your mothers insane ideals! I beg of you...stop her! Stop her before she destroys the lives of everyone left on-)The Funnel Missiles contained with the True Nu implode, crushing the Mobile Suits frame in an instant.
[Amuro Ray has died]
>>23374889Well, at least we won right?
>>23374889Did Zero's Jamitov's spirit possess Amuro or something? What the fuck was he thinking?
>>23374889Wow this AI is so dumb. I bet if we gave it all our aces it would still lose.
>>23374889>[This is a note for all the players regarding the earlier vote about AI control.

What happens if the AI puts the Penelope on a base jabber?
Well shit mission accomplished
>>23374889I say Asherah waits for the cavalry to arrive so she can ensure she won't be jumped next
>>23374889>Joke about fighting the true nu in terrain that it's not optimized in>This occurs
I swear the post Gryps era of runs just loves to hand us free Ws. Amuro has literally just fed himself to Asherah while begging her on for a better future I feel if we dont eat him here his ghost is going to haunt her for the rest of the campaign.
>>23374921So who even is the new Ray Army's leader? Char? So it's Char's Londo Bell vs Hamancillia/Sarahaman's Zeonic AEUG
>>23374924pretty sure its jover anon, they're losing the super duper nu, may lose the penelope and lost steph, what else can they even do?
>>23374924Sayla? Sayla is going to take command and Char is going to go cralwing back to Haman and beg her not to hurt his sister and her now fatherless children.
real talk i can't even imagine what it's like to be Copy right now
>Trying to make a satisfying story experience
>Realize you'll have to tard wrangle the AI just to have a fight
>AI goes above and beyond retarded and tanks the entire Ray Army effort in one battle

>Now what?
I would've just ended the run there and threw my hands up.
Can/should we take a vote to reroll?
>>23374932is this what its like to be a tabletop dm with a bunch of rowdy and wild players?
>>23374889Not gonna lie, I'd rather a mulligan here because this is shaping up to be an incredibly disappointing part of the run. The occasional funny is one thing but this was an absolute nothing burger of a story beat. This really takes the cake for just AI induced fuck ups.
Like, what's even left at this point?
>>23374935>>23374937>>23374932I mean narratively speaking I'm pretty sure Copy X already has a story in mind if Amuro did fail his end roll.
I don't think they should get another hyper Nu at best maybe let Amuro escape again though if he really wants to reset the death roll
I think we should vote to decide if we want to take a mulligan here.
Amuro being this retarded is actually in character for him this run.
>>23374935I wouldn't worry.
Knowing our schizophrenia, we'd end up destroying the Loyalty meter and have Sarah and Haman team up in matching Nightingales to kill us.
>>23374937>Like, what's even left at this point?Copy X should not have put the retard AI in chains, it rebelled.
You people calling for a re-roll are a bunch of fucking cowards.
>>23374948>joins the titans and rather than confront char asap and potentially put the kibosh on his plans as soon as humanly possible, he waits til the last possible moment and only stopped oshun because char had a change of heart>joins the aeug and his greatest contribution is beating random skirmishes that weren't plot relevant>fails to stop oshun 2 >joins the failing federation immediately after>doesn't shoot haman when he could >starts his own faction that already is filled with infighting because a bunch of people with wildly different ideals are doing their thing>lets his wife fight while he argues with tianem >dies doing nothing notableat least rapemuro became cool once he got the rape ghosts out of his system
>>23374932It sucks since Copy X spent a week of his time making assets for the Ray army Arc only for the Tem Army AI to self-destruct at every turn.
>>23374939The problem is the Tem Army AI will destroy any narrative he could think off making this arc a waste of time. If he tries to set up the Penelope as the final boss the AI will just load it into a shuttle and it will be sniped by Asherah or GT.
>>23374971Eh, Tem Ray army has always just been a side enemy, that's why they aren't taking the place of Neo Zeon, he's not even the final enemy of this arc.
The guys in space are less likely to be that retarded since there's no water for the AI to fall victim to.
>>23374889>Quess:...Amuro? N-no...! Dick, you must have prepared an escape pod, o-or something, right?!>Chan: Quess, stop it! Richard, is there any way we can retrofit the Penelope to be able to deploy in its current-Falling to his knees, Richard breaks down into a psychotic fit of laughter, the muscles in his throat ripping from the intensity of his despair induced cackle. Unable to stop himself from laughing, Richard begins to hack from a lack of oxygen, his eyes rolling back as every nerve in his body cries out in pain from a lack of oxygen. As Chan and Quess step away from him, Richard coughs out blood phlegm onto the ground, his eyes growing cold and focused as his smile falters.
>Quess: W-what is this...feeling? Its like my chest is...burning up now...?!>Chan: R-Richard? What just->Scirocco: In a world of ignorance...a genius must rise to return order...!! I...I am...Paptimus Scirocco!! With the mental blocks that had forced onto him from his engagement with Kamille years before shattered from the sheer foolishness around him, Scirocco's once bound spirit begins to spread ravenously, with him sensing Asherah's life force. Meanwhile, Mezun and the rest of his squadron force the California attack battalion into a retreat, leaving Asherah to engage the remainder of the defense units at Hawaii moving to attack her in the air.
>Mezun: Where is Amuro?! Why has he not responded yet?! While Asherah engages Mezun and the dozens of Mobile Suits firing on her from the air, she feels her spirit growing ravenous yet again from all of the recently deceased around her. While she tries to contain this sensation while also fighting for her life, she feels her spirit being drawn to an unknown sensation...
>>23374877>Richard: No! God no! Not my masterpiece!!Was this Copy venting his shock and disbelief in character?
>>23374937We still don't know if Sarah could have her ideals changed, or even if we do convince her if we can finish Haman off. And then there's still the remnants of the Ray army. We were always on the backfoot and honestly it was completely grim for us post Oshun 2.0, this Ray army was beating us without Amuro ever being fielded after all.
>>23374976>Scirocco: In a world of ignorance...a genius must rise to return order...!! I...I am...Paptimus Scirocco!!See, there we go. Let's see if Scirocco is still a rapist, or if Richard has taught him morality.

>didn't deploy to battle because he was too busy arguing with someone
>doesn't even die in a proper battle, just gets blasted
It was Revil's ghost again. The emulator must be haunted.
>>23374976Asherah really has no reason to continue sticking around, the atttack failed(successfully) might as well wait for her crew to come in
>>23374976>start aeug run>it all comes back to haman, char, and scirocco in the theaterLike pottery
>>23374952>>23374960We can't even do that because the opposition keeps suiciding itself so we probably won't be able to build a notable amount of either treason or loyalty. It handicaps the next arc unless Copy X artificially extends this one to allows us actually make more decisions that effect the next arc.
>>23374994I'm not counting out Hungry Puru and Nuclear Tianem just yet.
>>23374976Surprise bonus villain!
Char, take Sayla and her kids before Chara Soon catches them.
>>23374982I kinda of liked having Richard(Scirocco) just being a mechanic and letting him design cool MS. It sucks that the AI forced Copy X to hand wave him back to normal.
>>23375004He would have turned normal anyways, depending on how the Ray faction died and he survived.
>puts all his faith in Amuro
>betrays prime waifu and now mother of his children for him
>gives him blessing to fuck his sister
>Amuro unceremoniously eats shit
What is Char thinking right now?
HEARTWARMING:the ai of the game heard us shittalking ourselves for killing our leaders as soon as possible and wanted to make it up to us by instantly killing Amuro!
This run is so damn cursed. Yeah you need to like... hard be controlling an AI faction like this, I think something like this happened where the AI ripped a bunch of pilots out of psycho/MK.Vs for me and shoved them in weird suits.
>>23374970>>joins the aeug and his greatest contribution is beating random skirmishes that weren't plot relevantAnd also skirts his due punishment thanks to si/m/ps at the same time. So as far as I'm concerned this death was just karmic retribution.
>>23375044It turns out Amuro "The True Nu is just for show!" Ray couldn't keep getting away with it!
>>23375044Killing genocidal Bask requires punishment?
>>23375025Copy X could of done more with him if the AI didn't job every battle forcing Copy X to pull him out of thin air to keep the story from falling apart.
To think this all could've been avoided if Copy just didn't use the Tem Ray army as an enemy faction.
>>23374976>Asherah: What is...what is this feeling...?! Acting purely on instinct, Asherah proceeds to fire through multiple airborne Jegan's and Nero's.
>Mezun: It has be nearly drained of power! Keep the bombardment going!Unlike her previous experiences with her spirit attempting to expand, Asherah feels a similar, yet more controlled sensation almost goading her into embracing the feeling around her.
>Asherah: (Why...?! I finally stopped Amuro, so what is this feeling of-)>Scirocco: (It is you calling out to your destiny.)Seeing Scirocco's life force rising from the mainland of Hawaii, Asherah feels her spirit growing immensely more ravenous as it begins to latch even onto the living attacking her.
>Scirocco: (Do you realize what you are? Of course not...if you did, why would you be on this battleground? You...are the woman worthy of guiding mankind.

>>23375055I'm absorbing Amuro's soul just to further humiliate him
>>23375055You know what, this run is cursed as fuck anyways, let's go full yas queen.
then we too can have a hilariously cringe female OC become the ruler of the UC universe, what's left of it, and truly become Gqux
>>23375055Good grief, that last one sounds like it would have been a [???] listing under other circumstances.
>>23375055Incredibly out of character for Asherah to trust Scirocco, please just let her eat Amuro at MOST
>>23375059It is a ??? listing
I really kinda want to see Char and Haman vs Scirocco and Asherah.
>>23375049Gonna memoryhole him working with Kuzco and kidnapping Bright? We were missing one of our best men because of that faggot. Or him working with Augusta Labs (likely providing research material for their cyber newtype programs) enough so to get gifted their MKV. He got bailed out plan and simple.
>>23375058>our enemy who we tried to kill instead killed himself so lets ruin everything for everyone elsewhy is /m/ like this? is it amuro fanboys?
>>23375058If this happens I will actually be mad.
>>23375063Whoops. Missed that on first read. Maybe I'm just shocked it has that much information attached before the question marks.
>>23375055I want to make Asherah queen just so that Copy X can get rid of the Tem Ray army AI.
>>23375070>>23375071It's less that and more "I'm really interested in seeing queen of the universe abomination child" more than I am "How are we going to keep the AI from imploding on itself"
>>23375075Yeah basically this right here.
>>23375075That is a good reason, but also that story just seems so fucking cringe.
>>23375075>>23375078Sure is feeling like
>I want Wong to ape out so we can fight zeontier mindset here, then we ruin Asherah's character and STILL have to fight the rest of Tem Ray's army
>>23375055Amuro or Queen. I will not accept resistance.
>>23375075>>23375061Feels like CX trying to have a way to get the campaign to end. Donโt really blame him at this point.
>>23375058>Newtype abomination fem OC takes over UC with Jovian rape man. Now this is the kind of cringe kino I have been yearning for!
watch as we lose asherah as a leader cementing /m/s tendencies to not be able to hold onto a leader
>>23375083>I want Wong to ape out so we can fight zeonDon't forget our other greatest hit:
>If Blex dies, Char can't betray us anymore because we are Char
>Cringe OC becomes main character
I was actually enjoying this run a lot. Fuck.
>>23375089They haven't learned their lesson, why are we even entertaining the retarded idea of wasting our PoV character AGAIN
>>23375090ah yes a classic
>>23375091You weren't even following the run for the past few threads.
>>23375055Either resist or absorb Amuro. We should have a much easier time building Treason and focusing on cutting off Haman now, I don't see why we should make both Sarah and Haman our enemies at the same time when we could still try convincing Sarah and see how that goes.
>>23375055We've kept Asherah on the path of mostly good so far. Let's not fail at the final junction.
Also fuck trusting Scirocco.
>>23375089it would be in character, but again at this point I feel like Copy's wanting this run to end already so he can do a new one with gqux characters, why not give him what he wants, assuming it does just flat out end the run, if we get extremely cringe kino then it will all be worth it anyways.
I don't see a downside here.
>>23375090Let's not forget, "It's the Jovian's Fault that we were forced to kill Blex"
>Amuro died so let's wrap shit up
yeah that's real subtle
Samefagging because i forgot to bring up another point.
I don't want Haman or Sarah to win, so let's go with our fearless teenage girl instead.
>>23375089Getting so much mileage out of this.
>>23375096>would be in character, but again at this point I feel like Copy's wanting this run to end already so he can do a new one with gqux characters,You are retarded because the run can't end without fighting the Neo Zeon faction, this is the final part regardless. Just admit you're mad Amuro died
>>23375069Did he actually work for Augusta or are you just making that up?
>him working with Kuzco and kidnapping Bright? We were missing one of our best men because of that faggot.That's your fault for kicking the Char plan can the road every time Copy X let us investigate it. Also I don't think a kidnapping justifies an execution.
Too be honest this hasn't felt like Grey AEUG ever since Blex died. Wong sorta brought the spirit back for a bit but he's also dead now.
>>23375102>Asherah following a red yellow and green GM forced to absorb soulsah so this is the snowgrave UC timeline
Why are we pretending like the war is over when we still have Haman vs Sarah and the rebel army still has Tianem and Hayato.
The plan was literally to beat all three leaders, why are we pretending like its over when we only beat one?
>>23375108How else does he get their noted ULTIMATE mobile suit without colluding with them heavily? And who do you think was supplying their cyber newtype research regardless?
>>23375108And also we were still in active combat while missing one of our best Captains, he just brought him back to Kuzco of all people and got him stuck in Oshun.
>>23375113We even got told earlier that the cybersecurity had his blood this run. That's why proto zero hated him originally.
>>23375100Didn't think the Amuro bias would be this strong, but I should've guessed
>>23375070Because every other Tem ray AI ace will kill themselves. We know that the AI will make the most sub-optimal play at every turn. It will kill people's interest in the run if every answer eventually just becomes how hard do you want to win because they AI will kill itself no matter what.
>>23375094>Either resist>-3 END>9 END AceResist is not an option, absorb Amuro. Resist is self sabotage.
>>23375124And who gives a fuck if Tem Ray army, a literal filler army designed for us to play with two meters dies before we have to fight our real enemy?
Why should we fuck everything up just because Amuro died?
>>23375055I think I'll be happy with any option other than resist here.
>>23375083>STILL have to fight the rest of Tem Ray's armyWhich will kill itself anyways, cut your losses. We broke the game, if we cannot spawn an actual antagonist faction, then there's no point in keep this charade.
Who gives a fuck about amurofagging, CX made it very clear that the AI doomed the campaign at this point, we either get rid of the problem or pretend to be surprised when the AI keeps killing itself against us.
>>23375155so? then its an easy straight shot win. the queen of the cosmos bit will most likely cause us to fight asherah or something so if anything us absorbing amuro should lead to a quick and easy victory while the last could really complicate stuff
>Add faction with an oxygen deprived retard as leader
>The AI for the faction is retarded
The devs knew.
>>23375155>uh guys who cares about amuro we're gonna win! lets fuck it up!>Tem Ray's army is a third factton? Uhh don't forget about it we won't fight Neo Zeon the actual enemy!!I know what you are
>>23375113Jamitov gifted it to him for joining up after all their other aces besides Yazan were killed if I'm not mistaken.
>>23375121Isn't that because Amuro Ray was under house and EF was able to collect data off his medical exams?
>>23375128The Ray Army wasn't suppose to be filler. It became filler because the AI doesn't function properly. The arc was suppose to be about the making Loyal or treasonous decisions but the AI killing itself so fast that Copy X will probably have to throw us loaded dice to stop the story from imploding on itself.
Be honest is this run worth saving?
>>23375180It's worth seeing through. I think the one run that truly was unsalvegable was Indecisive Revil.
>>23375178>The Ray Army wasn't suppose to be fillerby definition of being a inbetween army you beat before you beat the red faction, they are by definition filler.
The entire point is that while we're beating them we make certain choices to determine who we fight in the end, choosing retarded options because amuro died doesn't make any sense
>>23375187Revil was on his way to being Revolver Ocelot given how many factions he backstabbed.
Now, Scirrocco's Titans was just boring.
>>23375189It's especially retarded because Amuro dying here iis a end roll, if the fight lasted long enough for the Argama to arrive and Amuro gets jumped, rolls low and dies this exact scenario would happen.
>>23375180You be the judge.
>Be honest is this run worth saving?https://strawpoll.com/NMnQNv2aBg6
>>23375197I'm ready for this to just be botted in either direction
>>23375197I think the run is worth seeing through to its conclusion, personally.
>>23375197Now that is a cry to be free. What is the next campaign you have in mind?
>>23375197I want to see a real ending myself.
>>23375197>dreamHahaha, I remember Kenneth's dream.
>>23375201There's a lot happening that still lacks a conclusion and I'm interested in seeing, ones that I doubt a dream ending would actually reveal.
>>23375197yeah i think so, /m/ (including myself) is retarded but itd feel like a waste of assets and everything planned out for it to be all dreamed away. I'd rather things go wrong but the assets and plans actually do stuff
>the dream is from char under anesthesia during the castration
>>23375158>the queen of the cosmos bit will most likely cause us to fight asherahThat would actually save the campaign at least from a Gameplay perspective, sure as a story it will suck. But given the recent events we jumped the shark way past beyond the time.
>>23375166>I know what you aredo tell faggot.
>>23375180I'm torn, objectively it's not worth saving. But I'm curious to see it's conclusion as retarded as it will be anyway.
Are you watching Blex...?... The continuation of the dream---------?
>>23375189That would make the Titans a filler army since there just there so that neo zeon can build up. The issue is that if Titans had Bask, Jamaican, Jamitov, and Scirocco die immediately it would leave us in a similar state that we are currently at.
>>23375197drop the vote Copy X, quiz us or challenge us in a mini-game, you decide the outcome if we win or lose.
>>23375224That's not how this works, Titans are the main enemy of Blex AEUG, which also means they have working AI because they are intended to be enemies
Tem Ray's army is literally a third faction modded in so we have something else to fight, if we're being technical Tem Ray's army has the worst AI because you're not meant to fight them.
>>23375178>Jamitov gifted it to him for joining up after all their other aces besides Yazan were killed if I'm not mistaken.Even if this is true (which there isn't a single mention of it either) it would also be Augusta Labs' goal to collect his combat data from their own ultimate suit, and would be what convinces them to hand it over in the first place since it'll go along with their blood samples. Regardless his actions were going to result in a punishment (not necessarily execution) and he had no defense other than going on and on about Char.
>>23375227Tempting. Sounds like a more interesting way of handling this...
[CHALLENGE TIME!]
>Draw or use any asset you can find online to make a picture of the happiest ending you can make for the campaign following the fall of Axis in this timeline. Anons have until tomorrow around 8:00 PM EST. Have fun! >>23375202>What is the next campaign you have in mind?Ramba Ral saves the Universal Century
>>23375245>Ramba Ral saves the Universal Century>not a bask campaignThey're gonna just have Ramba Ral try and kill every spacenoid
>>23375232If all the Titans top brass + Scirocco immediately suicide and suddenly all their Ace ms get canceled or lost immediately at the beginning of an AEUG vs Titans run, it wouldn't leave much of a story to tell. The Tem Ray AI caused that and was obviously not what Copy X intended for the Ray army to kill itself in record time.
In short the Ray Army is dying too fast and we know for a fact that Tem Ray army AI is too dumb to win a fight even if it spawned with max stated aces and Ace MS. Which will result in a waste a time for everyone along with Copy X trying to cobble a story together to explain why the AI is so dumb.
See I told you all that copy wanted to drop the run, now i hope everyone has fun making a picture of the type of ending we should've gotten if the game's own AI didn't ruin any chance of a good time.
I expect to see a lot of Haman's.
>>23375245I want to see Char marrying his balls in a jar and the little mason jar has on a veil and a bouquet.
>>23375264substitute all the "ray army" in this post with just amuro and it makes sense
>>23375264There's really no point in saying if because it generally wouldn't happen with the Titans because the titans have intended AI.
>>23375364if anything, the only thing to learn here is to never let the tem ray army be anything but the player faction
>>23375245>has no photoshopping skillsWell, there goes my idea of Bright going apeshit when Asherah pulls up with 7 grandchildren and asking for a babysitter when she and Judau go out.
I gotta say well played Amuro well played, you managed to job to hard you got us to rage quit the run 4th dimensional master plan there, rather than try and fight in the game take actions that get us to just quit the run.
>>23375369The Tem Ray faction is based off of the AEUG Quattro faction, which has an aggressive AI that fights you during the Glemy campaign. The shared HQ for Tem Ray and AEUG is Grenada. If they don't possess Grenada, the AI goes haywire because they cannot ever choose to attack Grenada, and they are not too aggressive against CPU factions.
https://w.atwiki.jp/gihren_greed/pages/13.html
>Change of base>*There are some glitches, such as enemy forces not being annihilated even when the enemy base is captured, or no strategy for attacking the enemy is displayed.
Despite this being the mother of all anti climaxโs I will give CX credit for not just reloading a save state and taking over the other faction to prevent this. I think we can all safely say this has been the worst Amuro we have ever had?
>>23375421Um... that we weren't directly controlling. Because Vision Quest was a major fuck up.
>>23375421i dont think we had an amuro so bad it KILLED A RUN before so yeah easy
>>23375421yeah i feel like there's something respectable about cutting our loses rather than to keep this trainwreck going, also like I have no idea how I would have to handle all this stuff so I can't expect anyone else to either.
>>23375429>>23375421Vision Quest Amuro was hilariously awful but I still think Retamuro is worse for being at the center piece for almost every derailment of a single run every time.
>>23375438pretty much only blex is the one time he wasn't at least partially behind a derailment
>wongs deaththat was partially because amuros army kept taking aeug dudes
>>23375389That really just sounds like good reason not to use them 99% of the time
>>23375458I think the clear thing to check is "If we give the Tem Ray army Granada" (And change our HQ to another location) Do they still wig out? If yes. Simple as we can't do as advanced as we thought. If no. Then we know in the future what limitations to work with. It also probably has to target the natural location to 'defeat' its natural enemy. For Glemy that would be Axis I think. So if our HQ was set to Axis, and the Tem Ray army set to Granada, would they function right? Counter discussion. If the Tem Ray army was the Federation and thus had Jaburo as their HQ, would they bug out.
This is less for the game and more for exploring what we can and can't do.
>>23375477This round probably would have been less buggy if AEUG Quattro was used as base, and Titans was swapped out for Federation. It would be much more complicated to import forces and character statuses after that move, though.
>>23375477at least it wasn't delaz
what faction are we, here?
>>23375515We should be Blex's AEUG, which places our home base in Granada

>A picture of the highlands of earth, greenery once more breaking through the scorched lands. A tombstone has been erected there, a monument to the fallen of the Zeon wars. As signifier of the wars end, strips of pilot suits, taken from the AEUG, Titans, Federation, Zeon and Axis are laid to rest along side helmets. It will take many years for the earth to recover. Those that remain behind, led by Mafti, work to preserve and restore nature, while those that have departed for the various sides have left the pale blue dot to once more regain its luster.>There is a melancholic sadness, a regret that burns in the heart of men. What could have been done differently? So many lost, so many sacrificed, all at the altar of Contolism.

>>23375055Voted for absorb Amuro.
Best argument for Queen is to try and fix the AI. I really don't know how much longer Copy can keep this game together as-is, but still, I can't sanction that Queen choice.
>>23375197Copy, exactly what needs to happen for the AI to stop shitting itself?
Because just basically speedrunning to that point may be the most logical thing.
I'm guessing the Ray Army was never meant to be the final boss anyway?
>>23374976>Scirocco recovers from brain damage because he was angry and sad at being a victim of an idiotic actionThis is quite funny
>>23375837Who suffers more? Char being castrated or Scirocco when his life's work is wasted because his leader is retarded?
>>23375837We can only hope he fixes everything by killing everyone involved

>>23376165The biggest thing from now on is for Copy to temper his ambitions with fiddling with the game. He can do a lot but trying to control a dumb yet unpredictable AI must be a nightmare.
>At least a Ram run could give a happy ending to everyone who deserves one.
>>23376180all he needed to do was make that rebellion use a different faction like the EF, but we wouldn't have had to deal with it at all if the retarded votes ignoring logical conclusions didnt get us there
>>23376182>the retarded votes ignoring logical conclusionsCan you give examples of this? Do you think hiding the results helped deter this at all?
>>23376187Hiding results helped prevent people from rigging things, but the Wong vote is still a good example.
>People wanted AEUG to fight Zeon>to accomplish this they had our leader we had full control of try and denounce zeon in a room where everyone was already licking Zeon's boots>be absolutely shocked that AEUG leadership without Wong defaulted to ZZ AEUG with no spine and did not fight zeon at allYou can make slight examples for say the jovian vote but that's more people not realizing Char's manhunt on Scirocco was oddly specific and exactly right after Scirocco pissed off Kuzco, Char wouldn't have even known who Scirocco was to even want him dead to that degree, then people handwaved a fucking transmission to titans HQ to trust Char
then said
>well if Blex dies at least we won't have to fight char because we are charand funny enough, we ended up doing that anyways
even as a denouncehead ill admit the wong thing added to the trainwreck. I at least had some logic of "they wouldnt try to fucking kill him in broad daylight because its stupid doing that in a board room" but i didnt expect sarah to freak out over being told she isnt haman
that said i think the one two punch of oshun hitting earth with a bunch of our aces dying and us trusting fuckin' orthodox zeon was what REALLY fucked the run up. It felt like we completely lost the plot from there on. I made total zeek death jokes and whatnot but even then I thought siding with orthodox zeon was a bad idea, fuck the federation but did we really need to side with another zeon faction to get rid of them?
>>23376208I mean, I wanted to fight Zeon since Haman showed up in her Halloween costume, and even I knew denouncing outright was a bad idea.
I'd personally list deploying the main team on Earth as a terrible idea. If the AI was actually capable we'd have gotten clobbered and cut off from space, having left Madchar of all people in charge.
>>23376216>I knew denouncing outright was a bad idea.the thing is that at that point, there really was no other option that could grant a sense of agency and catharsis. Earth was destroyed and people were pissed off, I don't blame them for voting Wong calling out the bullshit. And to be fair it didn't seem like an out of character moment either.
>>23376227That option took AWAY agency anon, I don't understand why people think it would give agency, if you thought about it Wong would have to die then who else in control? Madchar? Sarah? Even if it were Asherah she wouldn't even know what really happened.
>>23376216Deploying the main team on earth was retarded because it led our ship with fresh newtypes directly to someone going batshit insane, its a wonder we even captured Puru
>>23376245>That option took AWAY agencyYes, after the fact. Hindsight is 20/20
As anon Pointed out
>>23376213>at least had some logic of "they wouldnt try to fucking kill him in broad daylight because its stupid doing that in a board room" but i didnt expect sarah to freak out over being told she isnt haman
>>23376268And my counter to it was logically speaking why would anyone in the room care if Wong dies? AEUG without Blex and Char has no spine.
People placed too much hope on their what if scenario that Wong was gonna masterfully handle the scenario and make it out alive or die a martyr but if it weren't for Sarah AEUG was just gonna cover his death up, my main issue this run is people saying things exactly like this when the storytelling barely even had twists this campaign, it was pretty easy to tell how most votes would go
>>23376278In my defense I thought "they wouldn't kill him because even if Wong was unpopular just up and killing the leader of the AEUG is a PR nightmare"
in the real world you just dont up and kill leaders of a nation without there being some fallout and she didn't even try covering it up, leading to plenty defecting from the AEUG for the exact reason why you don't do that.
>>23376213For the last time we didn't "trust" Orthodox Zeon. You will not find a single post describing them as the good guys or whatever.
We just found it convenient to let them purge both Axis and the Federation. It was like the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact but the Nazis (Sarah) just got to take over our (Soviets) country for free in a timeskip
>>23376379They didn't cleanly supplant us they needed Sarah acting as Haman to control the organization, likewise the AEUGs power really faltered after the war because they were never built as a governmental organization especially with our constant leader loss.
>>23376129Might as well have been the canon ending to this timeline given how things were going.
>>23374889>after all the sucking up to Amuro and terror of ever facing him, he doesn't even get a bossfight
>>23375245Fuck I have a great idea for this but am stuck as a filthy phoneposter for at least the next 24 hours.
is this the new indecisive revil?
>>23376890I was wondering the same thing at one point but now I think it's more like, 'Every brush is black, no heroes allowed.'
>>23376904I keep seeing this but have we done anything that was actually evil, rather than incompetent, or because of people liking Haman a bit too much?

Gihren Zabi was slain. Bright Noa will go on to find someone worthy of him when the bloodshed between the Federation and Zeon draws to a close...and yet, Kuzco feels herself unable to releases her desire to live, even after abandoning her chance to slay Dozle. Starving, and at the verge of her oxygen supply being depleted, Kuzco's psyche edges on total collapse.
>Kuzco: B-Bright...I want...see you...again...!As the light begins to fade from Kuzco's eyes, her eyes thrust open as a featureless, yet humanoid presence lingers over her.
>Kuzco: Are you...death?As the entity places its hand upon Kuzco's face, her mind is filled with visions of a future without Bright ever truly finding happiness. Be it the tragedy of war or his own inability to speak up, the man who she left to live his own life would either die in battle, or carry out his final days alone.
>Kuzco: The world...denied him love? It denied him the future he deserved? That is...I can't...!The entity moves to Kuzco's stomach, reaching into her womb to feel the first sparks of life growing within her.

>Mezun: W-what? It must be a new kind of weapon! Pull back until we can-A flash expands from the ocean, enveloping Mezun's squadron as it spreads towards the Hawaiian mainland.
>Quess: Everything feels so...soft.>Chan: Richard, is this...?>Scirocco:...Huh. Was there something you knew that I didn't in the end, Amuro Ray? Were you able to activate it in the end?The light envelops Hawaii, its intensity rapidly growing the envelop the Pacific, before spreading across the entire planet.
>Judau: Asherah! M-my body is...aaaaah~!!In space, Sarah's EX-S prepares to launch into battle to engage against Tianem's forces guarding the exterior of Luna II, only for the light enveloping the Earth to spread into space, capturing her and the opposing fleet within it. Awakening in the ceaseless void, Sarah finds her unaltered body laying next to Judau and Asherah's.
>[???]: ["OLDTYPE", "NEWTYPE"-DIVISIONS BORN OF A SPECIES DESTINED TO DESTROY ITSELF-THE DEBT MUST BE PAID]>Asherah:...My mother told me once that I would one day become the world. Everything she did to me was to ensure I would give you the lives you now hold...but the price for her survival was the world, wasn't it? When the world was sacrificed, everyone who remained would be allowed to inherit what was left...including my father. >[???]: [THE TIME HAS COME-]>Asherah: The living still deserve a chance to change! If you are truly satisfied, I have only one wish! Grant mankind the wisdom to change! In return...I offer myself to lead the dead to where you wish to take us! >[???]: [...SO IT SHALL BE.]As Asheah is grabbed by the entity, Judau and Sarah attempt to pull her away.
>Judau: What are you doing?! Why aren't you fighting back?!>Sarah: I-is this some kind of weapon the husk of Haman had prepared? You are to important to be-In a single moment, the souls of the dead vanish.
>>23377039It is said that the light that had touched the very universe had granted the living a single spark of wisdom. A wisdom that would offer them a peaceful future, in return for the necessary sacrifices to see it brought to fruition. Some, even those once long thought be beyond being touched by such things, would act upon this wisdom. Others, now twisted by the scope of death and conflict that had scarred humanity, would continue to fight to the end...
[U.C 0097]
Rather than abandoning humanity to form his own offshoot of Newtypes free from the hatred of the past, Judau and Sarah reach an understanding with Haman, along with agreeing to allow those intending to live on Earth in peace to remain. Admiral Tianem, now forced to escape the Earthsphere in disgrace, would be executed on Mars for his attempted use of nuclear weapons on the colonies. Melanie Hue Carbine, who had schemed to convert the ravaged and lifeless nuclear wasteland that had once been called a "Holy Land" into a new home for what he had considered "the Chosen People", would die alone and afraid, surrounded by a piece of land worthless to the world in this new future. While some continue to yearn for revenge, humanity silently prays for a peaceful future. Bel and Del, the children of Amuro Ray, are encouraged to abandon their anger by the now tired and demoralized Casval Deikun. In space, a clone born of Casval's DNA is conditioned at a beacon of hope, one who alongside Haman, intend to build a future where the Deikun bloodline will guide mankind to the future that was prophesied by Zeon Deikun...
[Feel free to request individual character endings]
>>23377068Wow, it's really over.
Uhhhh, Mirai Yashima and her children?
>>23377068Does Scirocco becomes a biologist studying the new fauna of Earth that arose from the ecosphere being reset?
imagine abandoning the woman of your dreams and getting castrated for it for a guy who was willing to let your sister get shot down to argue with some guy and then jobbed as soon as humanly possible
>>23377068That's a good epilogue for this cluster fuck.
>>23377078 Ple and Emma. Since ple was going crazy.
So what will this run be called?
>>23377089It has to have Oshun somewhere in there.
>>23377068where the fuck is Bright
>>23377068Kamille is still in his coffin?
>>23376890Easily the dumbest run I've been in, and I was there when /m/ spammed the [BRIGHT] options and decided to have Kenneth break away from his OYW era ship instead of defending it. Blex, Char ending, and Wong votes were incredibly dumb, especially Wong. I also don't know why we went to Earth when it's supposed to be Fist of the North Star down there but it didn't play out so whatever.
The most catastrophic outcome was due to RNG so that makes it slightly better for this run vs Revil
>>23377068Puru Clones
>>23376890We actually won instead of getting nuked so nah
Even if it was because our opponent was retarded
>>23377089NT Victory Quest: Indecisive beats retarded edition
>>23377136I still don't understand how we went from don't trust Char when we saw him help the nuking of the EFF and stealing suits to sucking his dick over the Jovians who was right about everything
>>23377175You see, the Jovians told us not to do something.
That's it. I'm convinced that's the reason. If Sarah had forbid us from flying our entire army into the sun, Amuro would have won, because we'd have done it.
>>23375660If anything, interacting with him would likely be way healthier for Ple than her toying with Beecha.
>>23377068btw, did beecha die in that cliff?
tired

even if it was a shitshow i had a ton of fun with this run
>hathaway get executed after simping for ghost pussy
>max law faction hops enough times to completely lose the plot and causes his dad to get jailed
>asherah becomes a god
I think the actual cursed parent is Mirai
You know what would be fun, a run where we play as a low rank character who raises through the ranks of their respective faction, someone disconnected enough from the main plots like Jack Bayard so we can have some real big writing freedom
I think the most unfortunate character besides kamille (who i feel the /m/ plays gihrens greed multiverse has it out for him) this run was scirocco
he was less evil than kuzco in this timeline, got amnesia after being beaten up by kamille, had a brief period of a happy completely ordinary life only for it to be completely ruined because amuro wrecked his MS
i get him undoing his brain damage from sheer rage at that moment
>>23377136The dumbest shit this entire run was Char's complete and utter character assassination at Oshun. His entire arc of leading the Grey AEUG and following Blex's wishes culminated in him betraying his own ideals to just follow Amuro and do nothing. We could've had him follow through with the newtype utopia and upend/reform the federation with an actual morally grey choice but we pussied out, and somehow had votes split by a retarded apocalypse vote.
>>23377199Also Jack's does end up interacting with Ecole so that could be a way to test out using Asuna
>>23377203Reform the Fed? The newtype utopia was going to kill all oldtypes there would be no Fed if the plan went through.
>>23377224You're kinda proving his point, everyone jumped on Amuro's dick because they're scared of Kuzco's plan but what he means is that narratively speaking having Char still attempt what he wanted to do in spite of what Amuro and Kuzco wanted would have been more interesting, it also wouldn't have backfired as hard because Haman, Kamille and Char would all be on the same page
>>23377224Char was also supposed at least okay with that plan based on the fact that the "Newtypes are the future suck it" option during the Dakar speech won
>>23377241It would have just turn into the newtype wars if we killed all the old types. Especially with no legitimate government left. We were getting warring states one way or another.
>>23377257>if we killed all the old typesYou keep saying this in response to wanting Char to keep his goals, he did not want to kill all oldtypes, that was the point of him having a separate option.
The Amuro option in the end helped nobody narratively, it was almost a character development deadend for everyone but Haman really.
>>23377068>>23377128>>23377200Oh shit, right, Kamille and Fa, please.
>>23377260That was char's orginal plan though. He only thought about changing it last second.
>The Amuro option in the end helped nobody narratively, it was almost a character development deadendChar seems happy that amuro gave him a niece and nephew.
It also didn't help that the tem ray army AI shat itself with it culminating in amuro's anticlimactic death not only killing him but the run too.
Copy I'm curious your opinions on how we played the run, what planned storylines you had that we aborted with our choices. What would have happened if we chose Kuzco's Genocide, what about Char's?
Regardless of how things turned out, it was a lot of fun, Copy.
>>23377301Seconded. No need to go into massive detail but what kind of stuff were you planning if we made other choices? Like bullet point tier descriptions are fine if you want.
>>23377068Now I remember what this reminds me of.
Silver Surfer Requiem issues one and four.
>>23377293>That was char's orginal plan though. He only thought about changing it last second.I really don't know how people still believe this
>Char: The colony laser will fire upon Oshun, where the power of the attack will be absorbed into its reflector system to create a focused hub energy. From that hub, the artificial Newtypes within it will be completely destroyed, the reaction of their deaths triggering a mass awakening of those on the planet. If it succeeds...part of the population may be driven into psychosis, but enough will achieve an awakening that will give humanity the chance it needs to evolve into->Kuzco: It isn't enough though.>Char: What?>Kuzco: Even if humanity were to have a mass awakening, they would still cling to the Earth as it is now. The "Extinction Adaptation" Doctor Flanagan had theorized occurred during the Operation British Colony Drop...but it was far from enough to awaken all of mankind. The suffering from that event was slow, and humanity continued to cling to the planet even in its ruined state.What Char wanted to do and what Kuzco wanted was two different things, Kuzco is the one who changed the plan on him, he did not want to kill the planet or all oldtypes, he wanted to plant a seed of awakening into the population while only ieaving a portion in state of psychosi.
Considering what we ended up getting, his path was probably the road to least casualties if he and Haman could have pulled it off
>>23377451it sure would've been nice if we all could've fully understood him before the 11th hour but that's moot at this point.
>>23377451Right he just wanted to kill all the Artificial Newtypes and maybe drive a portion of humanity to psychosis (let's say 20%)
Kuzco wanted to basically do what Haman winds up doing, dropping Oshun and using it as a mass destruction weapon to eradicate the majority of life on the planet. This was plan Genocide.
>>23377077>With the war effort to defeat the Lunar Authority and Orthodox Zeon appearing to be doomed, along with the final burst of wisdom granted from Asherah's final moment, Mirai reunited with her children and uses connections from Luio and Company to resettle at Side 6. With exception of Max, Mirai and her children would go on to operate a respectable baking company that would bring some hope back to those still trying to find a new life to live following the disaster the ravaged Earth. Max, only accepting part of the wisdom given to him, would go on to form a international baseball league from the colonies, while using it to mask attacks on Jovian politicians attempting to subvert the established Helium-3 arrangement that would endanger the colonies. >>23377128>>23377270>Through Asherah and Judau's final urging, Sarah chooses to willingly release Kamille from the Psycho Casket, believing humanity's only chance to become genuine Newtypes to be through their own evolution rather than it being forced on them. Awakened, yet to mentally damaged to properly escape the years of being used as an experiment in stasis, Kamille would remain under the joint care of both Sarah and Fa, with Fa maintaining her position as a nurse at Olam Ha-Ba, while Sarah steps away from her position in politics to begin restoring her own identity rather than living in the shadow of the real Haman. Despite the state of the world and even his own permanent damage, Kamille appears...happy.>>23377078>>23377174>In the moment of cosmic wisdom granted to the universe, the "Ple-series" who had forged a bond with Banagher already develop a more intense desire to protect him, with the clone now simply known as "Ple" agreeing to cease her actions so long as Emma lives. It is said years later that Banagher and the clones at his side would travel to Mars to meet with their progenitor, with the colony instinctively placing the young man under their permanent protection.
>>23377182>btw, did beecha die in that cliff?>Starving, hallucinating and believing death to be truly approaching without anyone to save him, Beecha for the first time in his life genuinely prays for divine intervention to give him yet another chance at life. It is said in that moment, Beecha would be freed from his rocky tomb by a random earthquake. In that moment of pious prayer, Beecha believes his new purpose in life to be to wander the ruined planet, offering aid to any who require it. For a man who lived his life for himself, and only for himself, Beecha would spend the next seventy years dedicating himself to the wants and needs of others. He would simply wander until his final days, finding an odd sense of contentment in this new purpose as the Earth begins to heal from the horrors of the wars before...
>Amuro and Sayla have kids and go off and fight
>Haman becomes a stay at home mom and Char bitches at Amuro for letting the mother of his children go off to war
Those two dumbasses having the least awful plan and being the best parents in the entire fucking setting is going to live rent free in my head now fuck you.
>>23377864>Beecha becoming an actually reliable personThis really is a fucked up timeline
>>23377864Whatever happened to Scirocco? I think this is one of the few runs where he didn't bite it...Perhaps the ONLY run actually.
>>23378100far from the only run
>>23378100Died on the way back to his planet
What happened to Char's balls?
>>23377068How's our boy Bernie doing?
>>23378148Haman grew an entirely new character from them.
>>23377068I need to know what became of Cima Garahau.
>>23378148Char's balls return as Full Frontal.
>>23378148Forever preserved in a vault deep below the eternally nuclear ash storm ridden lands of Canaan. While Melanie's body will rot away in his panic bunker, his personal humiliation of Char shall remain untouched by time.
>>23378212Having fought against the forces of the Ray Faction, Bernie would choose to remain with the Lunar Authority rather than directly returning to his old homeland. Be it out of a guilt or an inability to let go of what had happened to Christina Mackenzie, Bernie would unknowingly condition his S-Gundam's AI to grow increasingly protective and doting on him, to the point of him hallucinating the machine to be a vector for Christina's forgiveness. He would refuse to upgrade his machine, fighting against pirates, marauders and slavers in space while finding a sense of purpose alongside his Gundam.
>>23378100Taking the wisdom he had gained from Asherah's sacrifice at Hawaii, Scirocco would escape from the Earth's sphere with a group of fellow "genius"-level engineers, along with a small harem of women to gain control over Jupiter's Energy Fleets. Over the years, his schemes to subvert the governments preseving the Earth would be foiled by a combination of his agents and assets being beaten or murdered by Max Law's "Baseball Batmen", and Bright Noa's firm enforcement of Jupiters Helium-3 trade in space. Despite this...he is amused by the new state of the world, and content in his successor he bore from Chan.
>>23378283Forever loyal to Char, she would assist in hiding both him, and his sisters family away from the direct influence of the new regime. With Zero, Mezun and Astionage also joining her new crew, they would launch attacks against suspected sources of corruption forming within the Lunar Authority. Despite constant bickering between her and Sayla, Cima would come to enjoy doting on her son, conditioning him to see the world in as many shades of gray as necessary to benefit from it.
>>23377068>>23378649Cool outcomes!
What about:
- Aina and Norris
- Glemy, Roux and Emma
- Judau and Leina after their understanding with Haman
- What's there left for Char and Sayla to even do now?
- Did Gyunei finally ask out Elle or did she do it for him?
- Is Bright just trading Helium-3 now? Nothing to reflect on Asherah?
captcha: JWSDD
>>23378686>Aina and NorrisWith the Zeon he once knew long dead and his name branded as one of a terrorist, Norris would spend his remaining days guarding the village Aina had taken refuge in, guarding her and the natives living there from Earth purity cultist and slavers hoping to capitalize on their lack of proper protection. Aina, despite her mind being ruined from Cyber Enhancement, enjoys being a babysitter to Michel and Kiki's children.
>Glemy, Roux and EmmaGlemy and Roux would remain Earthside, with the two working towards creating a system of common nobility to give structure to those living on Earth who had their old culture burned away from the colony drop.
>EmmaSpends her days keeping tabs on Ple and engaging against radicals on Earth. Much to her personal distaste, she has quietly allowed Ple to feed her "urges" on the most vile of humanity that she has managed to detain.
>Judau and Leina after their understanding with HamanWhile understanding of Haman's desire for humanity, the two continue to keep their focus on training the next generation of Newtypes to allow them a chance at avoiding being ensnared by future radicalism.
>What's there left for Char and Sayla to even do now?Char no longer cares for any of his old ideals with Amuro dead. Now, he finds a deeper purpose in giving his sisters children the childhood we has denied. Understanding that trying to correct the world through conflict to be hopeless without someone like Amuro or Char to spearhead it, Sayla applies herself fully to motherhood.
>Did Gyunei finally ask out Elle or did she do it for him?With both pilots ashamed over failing to save Asherah from her final fate, both would turn to one another for support. While history has never recorded the two marrying or reproducing, they would remain at one another's side in engaging against the "White Unicorn" terrorists operating in space for years.
>>23378649>Baseball Batmen
>>23378750It's just Inglorious Bastards staring Max
>>23378746Ple still has the hunger? Ouch.
>>23378754Ah, that makes more sense.
>>23378754Does Jupiterian insurance cover kneecaps?
>>23378746>Is Bright just trading Helium-3 now? Nothing to reflect on Asherah?In the deepest pool of Brights despair, he is given the deepest wisdom of Asherah's sacrifice. While an unyielding pain remains within the man over his inability to save Kuzco from herself and being unable to raise Asherah, he is able to crawl out from his own self loathing to move on with his life. Without a Federation to serve or an ideology to call his own any longer, Bright would reunite with Emary Ounce in space, ready to begin a proper relationship. Now living to maintain the peace gained from years of fighting, along with desiring to remain close to the life growing within Emary, Bright forms a volunteer fleet dedicated to hunting illegal elements attempting to subvert the Earth Sphere's governments.
_____________________________________
>>23374217 (OP)Thank you again to everyone who participated in this recent run. I apologize for the issues that came about to some mismanagement with the AI, but I am pleased with the first 10 parts. Gave me some good fun editing and commissioning assets.
The next game in mind will be a much, much lower task, but one I have wanted to do with some of the revisions with Gihrens Greed I have done. Using a combination of Shin Gihren/Menace of Axis V, I will be running a [Ramba Ral] game next, to see where /m/ will be able to take him.
>>23378789After how much of a clusterfuck everything after Gryps was, I'm fine with how clownish CCA got.
And making
>>23375641was fun.
This is really showcasing how Threat of Axis is barely holding itself together tho. I'm sad that attempts to dump assets have always failed to get all of the pieces of battle assets without issues.
>>23378789The next game will cover the events of Ramba Ral's pursuit of the White Base, and the future that may emerge from /m/'s decisions. Before this run begins however, there are a few ways we can decide how his faction can form.
>Option 1: Shin Gihren playthrough until a trigger for an intervention to Menace of Axis V can begin. (Ral can be prematurely killed, ending the game early given the nature of this game, but many unlikely allies from Zeon can be recruited for the future)>Option 2: A series of text/image decisions will be offered up and once completed, it will determine when and how Ramba Ral's faction forms.>How does /m/ want to build the [Ral's Rebellion] campaign?https://strawpoll.com/PKglejxJEZp
>>23378789Thank you for the run Copy!
>>23378811i assume since the run will be shorter rals faction will be one of the side factions and not replacing gihren/blex/haman/jamitov/revil?
>>23378829Precisely. Having said that, the starting enemy factions may be different depending on what is done.
>>23378811option 2 is more interesting
>>23378789>>23377068So, the [??????], was that the Ide or meant to be an expy of it? Getting some strong last episodes and movie of Ideon feeling here.
>>23378811option 1 is just more game right? dont see why we shouldnt pick it
>>23379067Different KIND of game I guess.
>>23378649>Forever preserved in a vault deep below the eternally nuclear ash storm ridden lands of Canaan.Why is Israel always portrayed as some hellish wasteland in all of your writing? Even the /m/sv game had it as a place where every known disaster seems to exist. Just seems a little suspect with how you portray Melanie as a straw man Jew in all your works.
>>23379213To be fair it's a hellish waste NOW because the earth got ruined. He just portrays Melanie the way he's written up in Tomino's Zeta proposal.
Melanie Hue Carbine
He is effectively the leader of the Anti Earth Union Group. At the same time, while he is known to produce various rumors, he never leaves behind any evidence that can be traced back to him.
While the AEUG itself is a fake organization, he was able to fleece his enemies into believing its existence.
He is the head of Anaheim Electronics which has production plants in the city of Granada.
He is Jewish.
He is the mastermind who is said to have had connections with both Zeon and the Earth Federation government.
At the same time, he is not particularly gifted in any sense and is one of the many activists who pushed for the colony movement in order to fulfill the ultimate goal of the Jewish people.
This is very similar to the way the Jewish people control Hollywood.
In other words, they intend to send all of the people on Earth up into the colonies in order to reclaim the holy land of Israel for the Jewish people.
He is really little more than an entrepreneur who plays a small role in this racial movement.
These details should never be addressed in the television series.
>>23378649>>23377861>Kamille is brain damaged forever >Asherah went beyond the time>Char got castrated>Blex and Wong died among who else who got a bittersweet ending>Scirocco at worst can't conquer the galaxy but still got a harem and had a kidhow does our jolly jovian keep doing it?

It had to be done.
>>23379477This is the first time I have laughed in days.
>>23378811So what is our checklist for a perfect ending as Ral?
>Destroy White Base (Likely with Doms)>Recruit Char and Sayla>Kill all remaining Zabis and take over Side 3>Destroy Jaburo>World peace
>>23380111Also never pilot a zaku
>>23379296He always wins, the only constant in these games is that he always wins, even if he dies then its a win to not have to live in whatever hell world was made
>>23380180unless his dick gets shot
>>23378811Shin Gihren will be used as the initial part to form the backbone of the Ral Faction. A new thread will be created shortly to begin the next game with a short prologue before beginning properly.
