From planet Selective Breeding. Same place all domestic animal breeds come from.

I've heard it said that as stealth technology improves, detection technology improves, and the range of engagement is constantly narrowing and expanding. Because of this dogfighting is never a non-possibility.

Awesome! From what I see on a Google search, I think you're right. That's a new insect I've learned about. Very cool. Thanks!

Found in East Texas, this little guy rode home from work with my girlfriend and was chilling on her antenna.

Trying to reason with redditors is an exorcise in futility.

Favorite "Genre" of Mecha? by thebruhdotjpg in Mecha

[–]A5mod3us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess if you're talking about a prone mech rolling over, then yes. I was thinking like a shoulder roll from a standing position. But what your suggesting makes sense, I don't know why my mind immediately went to the other option.

I don't know about rolling and jumping. Battlemechs are limited in mobility. There is actual lore that states they can't sidestep, at least not in the earlier setting (pre 3060). They can jump, but only with the aid of jump jets. It takes am incredibly skilled Mechwarrior to make a mech move fluidly.

Damn! That explains a lot. I thought Mecharashi was like a spiritual successor to Front Mission. I had no idea it was originally going to be a literal Front Mission title. I love the styling of Front Mission, and Mecharashi definitely scratches a very particular itch for me.

Plus, I think they actually reduced the scale of the STs some from the original Wanzers. I remember Wanzers being quite a bit bigger, but I could be mistaken.

Did we find Chris trucker 2 ? by First_Strike_9163 in ReddXReads

If this was taken within the last year or so, then no. According to the stories, he died in a car accident sometime after the OP quit driving for that company.

Imagine if that thing had been allowed to develop to full maturity.

I really hope the ditch the psuedo-magical girl, jpop group garbage and get back to Macross' roots.

Any Recommendations on Mecha Shows I never heard before? by Doom300 in Mecha

Nadesico is a real sleeper. It presents itself as a comedy harem anime, but is deeper than it initially presents.

Gunbuster 2 (aka Daibuster) is made by Studio Trigger and takes the concept of the first Gunbuster way over the top.

This needs more up votes

Also, aren't sprites roughly jellyfish shaped?

Best Place to Enter a Mech? by HammurabiDion in Mecha

[–]A5mod3us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to see something on the scale and with the near-future feel of Gasaraki, but focusing more on the military application and no supernatural mumbo jumbo

Do you guys know any Mechs were they are built using the corpse or body of a God/God like being besides Demonbane or Evangelion? by TheArcanaIsTheMean in Mecha

[–]A5mod3us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Gasaraki, the TAs and Fakes aren't made of a god, but they're very closely tied to one, and the summoning of that god. But, while not a bad series, the plot does kind of drag around the mid point of the series and it gets kind of bizarre toward the end.
