    So, I have been watching Gundam Build Divers currently. Then since I have nothing to do right now, I thought "well I guess I'll make a thread about this" and here we are.

    Well back to the Gundam Build Divers, so for those that that didn't know what is it about. In summary, this is about a future where people can build gunpla and upload it into a some kind of MMO where they can battle with it. I will not go into the details of the Anime since it's not about that, if you want to know, watch the Anime!

    ...anyway, so what I'm trying to ask is. Suppose if you're trying to build a mecha to be used in a Game similar to the Gundam Build Divers. What type of robot would you like to build and control?

    Better have too much dakka than not enuf dakka.

    The anime is okay for me. Though I guess the MC is too much of a goody two shoes like in old kids anime for me which makes me itchy.

    A balance type that uses a sniper and twin blades. It would have wheels on the legs and arms, a pistol for a medium range, hidden missile turrent that can cause a small to medium AoE damage and a turnable torso that can be made as a dangerous cyclone strike.

    I like the anime. Still following it as a VR Game anime rather than a Gundam anime, to be honest.
    I will either go with Balanced, Heavy Close Combat, or Agile Long Distance.

    Da red Wunz Go FAstah

    But in relation to the thread I would like to make a mecha that has a lot of tricks like a hologram producing one , or tiny drones to destroy the joints, or one that produces an electrical field to blow up munitions before they reach me

    I would do an animal-based mecha, like a wolf or smthing. Personally, i would build a mecha with light alloys and basic close range weapons. Though i would prefer having strong defense to block long range attacks with close range weapons.

    Personally, one like in Supreme Commander, theres nothing like the ability to create your own army and turrets to keep that smile off your face.

    Basically as much firepower as possible with decent armor protection and better than average speed a possible.
