[ORegan]

I meant ingame, but that works too

[Fritz Ashlyn]

but seriously, what is the AEUG doing at the moment?

The 4th is stuck pursuing Echo. We're 2 1/2 hours behind with a ship that can't strain itself to gain very much distance (the Hamburg) due to engine damage. At the moment we're content to fix what we can and keep following them towards L4.

[The Big Zabowski]

And in truth, Sajer IS building a franken MS of sorts to replace a lost Nemo on the Gela.

EDIT:

With Cardi's blessing (and relief) I will be taking the reins of Shin Yamamoto for the duration of the RP. Expect some character development to occur with him

[Cardi Doorl]

*nervous scratching of head*

Eh Big Z, I really hate to be the one raining on such a strong reintroduction/reinvention of a character, but Shin... isn't in the briefing room at all :/

He is, however, being addressed by Samantha over in the suit bay (as seen in this ancient RP)

Well, if all else fails there's always Shin eavesdropping outside a door, but as for Samantha...eheh, yeah, one of you'll have to hit that Edit button some time or another. =/

Wai-wait, so it wasn't strip poker?

*Celeine re-dresses*

DAMN YOU AND YOUR LIES, FRITZ!!!

Hey, I have no problem with that...as long as she isn't playing with the guys.

<Jonas> Straight.
<Celeine> Sorry, hun, heart flush. Now come on...
*Julian walks by room just as Jonas is paying up*
<Julian> GAH! DO NOT WANT! *claws own eyes out* x_x

Yeah, you get the idea.

[The Big Zabowski]

Mother-frack..

And here I was looking ALL OVER for his last interaction with characters.... -_-

I guess I didn't look hard enough..

[wonton bob]

Has it been announced that the fleet is pursuing and that we lost Von Braun? I'd think there would be a bit more reaction to that.

[mcred23]

No. The 4th hasn't been in contact with any other AEUG forces since long before Von Braun was lost, so they don't know of it.

Also, Zabowski, is there any reason why you quoted wonton bob's post in the RPG section?

[The Big Zabowski]

I hit the wrong button when I was posting a new RP post. It's fixed now.

[Fritz Ashlyn]

Has it been announced that the fleet is pursuing and that we lost Von Braun? I'd think there would be a bit more reaction to that.

Red is right. The Argama tried to contact the Dervish during our skirmish (because Von Braun had fallen under attack), but the message was completely garbled by Minovsky. The 4th hasn't been in contact with the AEUG or Von Braun since we left the city.

[jim1899]

Sorry to be MIA for a while . I start posting everyday now, or maybe every two day. I still need to say sorry. So actually AEUG is clossing up with the Titans or going further? So the Hamburg is dragging the AEUG 4th fleet behind?

[Fritz Ashlyn]

The 4th is traveling slower than we would be if the Hamburg's engines were at full capacity, but we are still gaining on the Titans thanks to our angle of pursuit based on their direction of travel. Luckily, Wade Wilson is a competent navigator and someone was paying close enough attention to track Echo as they left Luna.

[Fritz Ashlyn]

Since Wedge made reference to the situation in his post in the G Gundam discussion, I thought I'd bring it up in our thread. Until Cardi returns, we're stuck in a minor slowdown here. It's not a huge problem, and as soon as he's back things will accelerate rapidly if we can stick to the plan.

Shameless Plug: CAIB's/EZero8's One Year War RPG needs temporary goon players to make their Battle of Solomon an epic affair. If you think you're got the free time, then consider helping them out for a bit. Their latest post in the Advertisements Section has an explanation (Thread here).

[RGM-79G GM Command]

Gonna post later tonight.

[Cybaster]

Greeeeeat. Of all the pilots on the Kirov, I had to get the two that were most psychotically battered. =/ What the heck was Samantha's monologue even about, anyway?

[Cardi Doorl]

If I told you right away, where would the fun be?

[Fritz Ashlyn]

New unit stats, and an announcement:

First, we will be skipping ahead a few hours for the sake of avoiding idle monotony during the pursuit. I will be making a new thread.

Second, here is the mobile suit Sager has cobbled together for the Gela:

Model number: “MSA-106"
Code name: HiNemo
Unit type: field modification attack use mobile suit
Manufacturer: Earth Federation Forces/AE/AEUG
Operator: AEUG
Accommodation: pilot only, in panoramic monitor/linear seat cockpit in torso
Dimensions: overall height 19 meters; head height 18 meters
Weight: empty 38 metric tons; max gross 58 metric tons
Construction: titanium alloy/ceramic composite on semi-monocoque frame; gundarium α cockpit reinforcement
Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 1620 kW
Propulsion: rocket thrusters: 2 x 18200 kg, 2 x 16200 kg; vernier thrusters/apogee motors: 14
Performance: maximum thruster acceleration 1.19 G
Equipment and design features: sensors, range 10020 meters
Fixed armaments: 1 x beam saber, power rated at 0.4 MW, stored in recharge rack in waist armor, hand-carried in use
Optional fixed armaments: shield, mounted on either forearm
Optional hand armaments: beam rifle, power rated at 1.9 MW, powered by rechargeable energy cap

The HiNemo is basically a Hizack with a Nemo's guts. The combination of MS gives the unit acceleration slightly better than a Nemo, but mediocre operational time and no real source of spare parts. Use it wisely, Ens. Traubel, because once it's damaged too badly it won't be worth repairing.
