MAPLE FURY: UNDER CONSTRUCTION
CREW ON STANDBY
CARBON NANOTUBE CHAINAXE, PLASMA CASTER, LOW AGILITY, AVERAGE SPEED, EXTREME STRENGTH

'The Wall' currently extends across the entire western seaboard of the Americas, and down Russia's eastern coast, all of Australia, all of Japan, and most of China and southeast Asia. It's suffered extreme damage around Santa Cruz. The PPDC is scrambling to repair the damage. The London Event is being compared to a second K-Day. 8 million people lie dead, the Jaeger project is limited to a single unit at this time, and the UK's economy will likely collapse in the coming weeks. Things are rapidly deteriorating. What will you do? The next Kaiju attack is expected to come in 4 days.

>>26160370

Prioritise immediate repairs on Cherno, sell off the unsalvgable parts of Typhoon's arm and donate the proceeds to the UK.

Assist Maple Fury where we can, get a monitoring system around the capes.

See if we can begin building a MkIV production line producing Centurion Alacorn model Jaegers.

>>26160370
We need Cherno and Crimson online fast, and anyway to aid the UK, we don't need a financial collapse on top of this.
If possible make some sort of public announcement to reassure the public.

>>26160370
Make another public announcement. We're only acting as essentially mercenaries because the PPCD isn't giving us another choice. Encourage ongoing steady investment in the Jaeger program (with those doing so receiving 50% discounts on our interventions) and those who are actually constructing their own Jaegers (such as Canada) receiving a 75% discount on our assistance.

>>26160370
Oh and start construction on Japan's pet Jaeger. Encourage them to pick and train a crew from their own populace, offer Mako as she is fully trained and knows the ropes pretty well.

>>26160478
You donate the 20 million USD to the UK from the third arm, and begin massed repairs on Cherno. The world is in mourning. Nations originally thought to be safe from the Kaiju threat are now longer confidant. Even the PPDC has backed off of pressuring you. You begin to construct a pair of bare bones monitoring offshore platforms at the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Horn. The nations of Ireland, Germany, and Brazil have also donated a total of 14 submarines to you to act as an early warning patrol fleet.

You begin building Japan's Jaeger, Roll d20 for naming (I'll pick the highest of the first 5 rolls)

There was an initial 2 hits in the rift, and one obviously went for Santa Cruz. We sent two to attack it, didn't go amazingly, Cherno was damaged.

Hey, with the design of the Japanese Jaeger, what weapons are we going to include on it?

I was thinking, maybe some kind of underarm tank filled with Jaeger coolant. So the Jaeger can grab the Kaiju, hold it in place, then freeze/shatter the Kaiju before it can do so much damage.

>>26161084
>>26161098
This wins. Feel free to design fair winner: http://apps.warnerbros.com/pacificrim/designer/us/

Buuut i'm going to only loosely follow the actual weapons you put on since we've mostly advanced to becoming super tooled up war machines, more so than in the movie.

>>26161224
How about a Naginata that has a super coolant tube in the blade?
>>26161239
Can we put a team of researchers on about finding some way to get rid of Kaiju Blue? it's a huge issue, and totally useless for us in it's current state.

I was thinking something like Air Dispersal pellets, that suck up all the Kaiju Blue around it, and turn it into something else. Maybe even something useful!

>>26161239

Only one I know we totally need is pneumatic spike arms.

Maybe if you want to get crazy you could have them be slightly hollow and, upon penetration, shoot out filaments that spin and "whisk" the Kaiju insides. Like a jellyfish stinger, only a bit more brutal.

>>26161319
Have them be full of a supercooled liquid to freeze the Kaiju's insides and prevent the spread of Kaiju Blue.

>>26161362

How about it injects neutralizing fluid?

Not only would it eliminate the Kaiju Blue problem, but it would probably be excessively toxic to the Kaiju itself.

Of course if we had an artfag or two.. but I'm not gonna get greedy. Let's go with >>26161631

Is there anyway to develop some chemical or technological device that can "tag" Kaiju as the leave the rift so we don't loose sight of them again? I am thinking a minefield that disperses specific isotopes that allow satellites and AWACS to pick them up way easier. They can run/swim/fly anywhere but we KNOW they have to start at the Breach.

>>26161631
Could we have the cockpit built into the chest of the mech instead of the weak, exposed head?

SPECIAL ABILITIES: SPIKED FEET ALLOW ANCHORING TO THE GROUND TO BRING THE FULL POWER OF THE BASSDROPPERS TO BEAR.

>>26161903
The Plasma Caster is in the chest. If we put the pilots there, they'll roast.

(this is why a human head is separate from the body, to separate the brain's heat from that of the organs)

>>26161952
Can we remove the head, place the cockpit in the chest, and add the two cannons on the shoulders?

>>26161983
The recoil and leverage would knock the mech over if the casters were shoulder mounted.

>>26162014
False. Japan's Jaeger (the one Pentecost was originally in) had howitzers on either shoulder.

How much money and research would it take to develop flying jagers?
At least flight for a little bit, more height than the jet jumps give them.

>>26162085

Please don't tell me you're thinking of a Mario Mech.

We could play up the threat of flying Kaiju to our advantage.

Because the Wall can't beat flying Kaiju.

>>26162096
Dammit you seen through my plan

>>26162043
Horizon Blue?

>>26162043
Howitzers can have backblast. A plasma caster is magnetically focused, and can't have any backblast.

Along with that, having a chest cockpit and twin shoulder mounted plasma casters presents us with the same issue of overheating as with placing the caster in the chest. Heat can't be vented to air very effectively, so a liquid coolant would be necessary, leading to a higher body temperature. A higher body temperature for the Jaeger would reduce the effectiveness of the Ice-Katana, and could lead to heatstroke for the pilots.

>>26162085
Developing ways to force flying Kaiju to the ground would be a better use of resources.

>>26161952
Well then, we're gonna have to do something about the very prevalent threat of the Jaegar's head being ripped (namely the Typhoon). We may also wish to invest in sealed battlesuits and helmets for the Cherno pilots, wouldn't want them to drown in the event of a hull breach and they're submerged under water....

>>26162126
In all seriousness I just thought the be able to go up very fast might be useful.
>>26162139
So we should make like a grappling hook to drag them back down?

>>26162163
What if the pull us up with them though?

>Selling extra parts and donating the proceeds to rebuild London
>Agreeing that Japan should have sovereignty over a weapons platform that we need to increase not only global security, but also our own margins.

Jaegers aren't cheap. If we keep doing things like this we'll all be out of a job. And if we're out of job, who's going to be there to protect London next time?

Need I remind you gentleman, the last time we didn't look out for our own interests the PPDC dropped us for a ridiculous barricade? At the moment we're an international contracted security force, that is able to hold itself above sectarian and nationalist interests. We cannot compromise ourselves in the interest of being 'the good guys'. It hurts everyone in the long run. Our bottom line is of critical importance when that same bottom line is what's keeping the world safe.

As discussed in a prior meeting, we have enough cash for two Jaegers. One is now contracted out to Japan, which leaves Europe in the lurch. The second one should be stationed there. Ask Spain and France for industry, basing leases, and cash.

Sell Kaiju parts to China, use the money to repair Crimson Typhoon.

Step up our recruitment drives. We need teams on standby.

We need to get the naming drives up and ff the ground. Earlier we discussed a partnership with Coca Cola. Buy a bottle of coke, use the code to vote on a name.

The pilots of Crimson Typhoon won't be piloting for a few days. They should be frontlining PR. Also, they like Basketball. See if we can launch a Crimson Basketball Shoe Line.

>>26162139
Harpoons maybe?

Something similar to Coyote Tango's cannons, but designed to work in combination with another Jaeger that beats the Kaiju to death while the other pins it down.

>>26162139
>Developing ways to force flying Kaiju to the ground would be a better use of resources.

Methane canisters.

Causes a massive difference in air pressure that renders flying impossible. It's hypothetically what causes planes to crash in the Bermuda Triangle.

Also highly flammable.

>>26162172
I had the same thought when I typed that.
I'm not really sure what to do about it.

>>26162163
>>26162172
The first flying Kaiju demonstrated the ability to easily lift Gypsy Danger, so we know they can lift a Jaeger. Harpoons/grapping hooks not an option.

>>26162186
Liquid nitrogen filled missiles to restrict target movement. Or just the Ice Katana. Really, we should keep the chest-caster. It's a good surprise weapon during grappling. Gypsy Danger's chest blaster proved that well enough.

>>26162187
Liquid nitrogen missiles, launched from ships and ground bases, to freeze their wings.

>>26162099
Hell, a kaiju could probably JUMP over the wall. Or climb. The wall is a shit.

>>26162227
Or they could just do what the other did and just walk through it.

>>26162085
Probably a lot. Like, anti-matter reactors or cold fusion alot. Getting that much steel and titanium flying would... be impressive.

3 days till next incursion. Cherno is now operational again. Typhoon is undergoing rapid repairs. Breacher Omega is 12% complete. There's unusually strong signatures from the rift, sighting worry. The UK's economy is rapidly deteriorating, despite international aid. London was their biggest economical focal point. Ireland has begun construction of their own Jaeger, codenamed 'Drunken Lass'

>>26162181
Where are we building our base in Europe?

I like that coke partnership ideia.

>>26162181
Economically, we have China and Russia kind of on our side.
We should focus on appeasing them, possibly getting some more ties to Australia since they developed most of the tech to go inside Striker Eureka (and we could use the advanced industry they must have).

In regards to Europe, lets get in good with western Europe, since we probably have a fuck ton of good will from Britain (which in turn is probably giving us p;lenity of good will among the various commonwealth nations), Ireland will probably be shitting itself and will be glad to help fund us if anything major comes up and mainland Europe (specifically France and Germany) are going to be tying everyone together and funding their own programs. Get in good with them, and we'll go far.

>>26161184
>French Jaeger

>>26162248
Well I didn't expect to have flying jaegers by the next attack or anything it was just a long term plan.

Advisor, I'm not exactly sure how we'll be able to train any new recruits we manage to get without proper facilities. Unless we can get the Europeans to lease us a military base to use as a training academy for their permission for us to build a Shatterdome, I don't think we'll be able to get our fresh-faced rookies ready for going up against 2500 tons of terror.

>>26162252
Straight of Gibraltar.

>>26162252
We don't have one secured yet. The Azores was looked at as a nice option. Lovely island. It's about 1/3rd of the Atlantic away from Europe, 2/3rds from America. Not ideal. Ideal would be a fleet of Jaegers on each coast, like in the good old days. But it'll do

Remember gents. When we were a fully funded organisation we were still struggling to keep our Jaeger numbers up. We can't afford to blow our funds on Humanitarian efforts. We need a damn nest egg.

>>26162259
Economically China is a great option, as is Japan. Russia we're a bit neutral with, I think. We have yet to maningfully interact with them.

If we could get Germany on the hook we'd be set. Luckilly, hey, there's an EU. If one country falters they all stumble. We should inform the EU we'll be needing space in the Azores for Shatterdome, as well as 400 million dollars (iel; two Jaegers. Or one Jaeger and alot of research.) That'll be the cost for providing overwatch for Europe. If they want to raise hell about it, remind them that London was a freebie.

Or a carpet bomber Kaiju.

>>26162248

Alright. Do we have funding to build the prototype mass-production model Jaeger, based on what we've learned (Use what we have left of Gipsy as a base, give it a single plasma caster, possible ability to mount the railgun)

>>26162263
I like this. Either Sacre Blue or Mon Dieu.

Call up the pope, ask him for a Crusade against the unholy Kaiju and watch the funds pour in.

>>26162248
Get a crew over to Ireland, and make some friendly contact with the drunkards.

If we can point out some key information in fighting Kaiju, along with at least attempting to establish a system to work in tandem with them during an attack, we could save a lot more lives rather than two hands not knowing what the other is doing.

>>26162368
I just imagined like 2 otachis coming through that are pregnant with quintuplets

>>26162345
But Ireland is part of the EU and it´s already building their own Jaeger. And im guessing Ireland can´t built it without EU help.

IF you'd paid attention, you'd know we only sold off the parts of Typhoon we COULDN'T return to duty, meaning we lost nothing and gained PR.

>>26162397
This. Let's get the religious leaders of the world on the line, have the Catholic Church spearhead a donation drive to the London Disaster, and to lend his full support to us.

We did just protect a South American location, and the current Il Papa is fond of his homeland.

>>26162411
One country developing one Jager is not sufficient security for a whole continent. We also have more expertise in these matters.

We give them our offer, and sweeten the deal by saying it comes with free consulting. This way Ireland can make a better Jaeger.

>>26162519
Bullshit. Catholicism is one of the world's biggest religions. If there was a holy war, people would fawn behind it.

>>26162504
Striker Eureka isn't exactly a bad design, and a Jaeger that's built for fast moving and rocket-assisted combat maneuvers should naturally draw a lot of inspiration from the fastest Jaeger ever.

>>26162490
Sorry bout that, they're all kinda cut from the same cord.

>>26162527

Who is a central figure in the Muslim world?

>>26162504

I...actually really like this idea. It'd get us a lot of backing and pull things a little closer to home for people who might not otherwise feel attached to the Jagers. I'm not saying they should be, but...well, if we're going to appeal to the masses, we might as well try to get them to admire us, I guess.

>>26162529
Most catholics don´t see their church like that anymore. War is not a thing the church represents.

>>26162577
Hence why you have them spearhead the humanitarian efforts of our organization. Not only does it make us look better, it saves us the much needed funding, AND brings in new donations. If we're the good guys of the world, the people who call out against us (I'm looking at you, Fucking Israel), can't do shit to us!

>>26162559
I did. I'm just trying to say we should use more than the Pope.

>>26162575
Islam will be tricky. The problem with them (and Hindu) is that they don't have a central leader. Instead, the best thing would be to likely reach out to each individual government (as government and religion are closely intertwined) and try to convince them.

>>26162576
through what? Individualized Jaeger's per country?

>>26162577
less of a holy war, more blessings that basically mean religious people see us as sanctified by the Church to defend humanity.

>>26162605
I agree with that. Just not the crusade ideia.

Forgive me if this has been asked before, but "Why London?".

Seriously. Kaiju traveling half way around the world for a sneak attack? Something about that doesn't add up.

If they wanted to get around the Wall, there are plenty of closer targets that they could have hit.

>>26162622
The Pope is a greatly respected man, as well as a diplomat, have him do the legwork for us. There's no reason we need to spend our time on this when he's got the backing of the largest institutionalized religion in the world backing him.

Can we have the ISS focus on tracking things out of the rift? We could have a Global Satellite Uplink doing nothing but tracking Kaiju.

>>26162632
Ask that kid in biology and listen to him ramble. He'll make about as much sense as the damn Kaiju do.

>>26162575
Closest we get to is the King of Saudi, seeing as he's the guy who holds the keys to Mecca. That said, Islam doesn't have a central religious figure like the Pope- your best hope of engaging Muslims is to tie in the Kaiju to apocalyptic imagery, and sell said imagery to Islamic authorities. You might not need to sell it to every single Muslim, mind you- the concept of Ummah in Islam should ensure that if you can make it catch on in central Islamic nations*, the community should do the rest of the work for you.

*Middle East: Saudi Arabia
Southeast Asia: Malaysia and Indonesia
Asia: China

>>26162628
Well, the idea is moldable. We don't have to hold it to a single thing. Merely getting his blessing would be a huge boon worldwide.

>>26162632
Logistics is confused about this as well. The only viable explanation is it wanted to cause chaos and fear, and perhaps disrupt society. But they couldn't have the knowledge to do something like that... could they?

>>26162666
Have we done a quick scan to make sure another rift hasn't opened in the Atlantic?

>>26162653
Has a Kaiju attacked any Muslim country? Like Indonesia?

If so, there´s your fuel.

>>26162666
Do we have sanction on our design for Drunken Lass, shown here? >>26162477

>>26162632
>Forgive me if this has been asked before, but "Why London?".

Find out if someone's doing anything shady Kaiju-related in London.

>>26162666
'Let the nerd drift with the brain they said, it can't go wrong they said...'

Anyway, can we have an update on our current stats, what Jaeger's we've got/any new pilots and shit, bases and political connections, etc?

>>26162714
Add a power Sheleighly (Like the Adeptus Arbites) and the actual Blarney stone taken from the castle and built into it, and you've got a deal.

>>26162711
I'm sure Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore would want to get together and build a Jaeger just in case. I know you can definitely count on Malaysia to fund a Jaeger, if only to puff our chests up and say "Look, we're playign with the big nations now!"

Seriously, we bought two submarines. The heck are we going to do with two submarines?! Sink Singapore?!

>>26162666
>Logistics is confused about this as well.

Glad I'm not the only one.

>But they couldn't have the knowledge to do something like that... could they?

Well, what do previous attacks tell us? Is their destruction random and animalistic, or is there previous evidence of Kaiju intelligence and targeted attacks?

Let's get on the horn to Taipei and the major Tech centers of the world, offer them full support for a discounted price if they help us with tech advancement, building new tracking systems for Kaiju, and helping us advance our Jagers.

>>26162771
The straits of Malacca are on of the most critical shipping routes in the world.

Let's ask people with a vested interest in that route for some funding. The insurance companies would see reason. All it would take is one Kaiju to bankrupt the lot of them.

Nothing there it seems.
>>26162663
Come to a consensus on this religion thing and we'll see what happens.

1 DAY - Typoon is again operational, Breacher Omega is at 30% readiness

>>26162848
I think the consensus is 'begin working through religious leaders, while not trying to get anything so polarizing as a crusade.' We have the Anglican church loving us right now. We therefore have good relations with the Pope, who is in the running for 'most influential man in the world'. Indonesia is a Pac country, and has the worlds largest muslim population. We can use this as an in with Muslim nations.

Don't bother with the Dalai Lama. It'd just upset China. He doesn't have the best income net as it is.

>>26162848
Alright.

OFFICIAL VOTING FOR RELIGIOUS ACTIONS
---
---
Here's my proposal; we approach the religious leaders/closest thing to religious leaders of the major global religions (The Pope, the Clergy in places like Egypt, the Dalai Lama) and we ask them for their blessings in this war. Perhaps name a Jaeger or two we get with funds after their religion (I.E. Knight Templar). This would get us greater funds through donations and greatly increase our popularity amongst the more religiously inclined of the world.

RESPOND WITH A SIMPLE YES OR NO, THEN VOICE ANY CONCERNS.

>>26162848
So, as far as the religion thing goes; Call the Pope up and ask him for his support, and to get the major leaders of the world's religions together in 15 days time (Have to be respectful) and to spearhead the humanitarian efforts of our organization. We need them to make us look like the squeaky clean good guys instead of just a bunch of mercs who'll let people die by the millions before we're getting paid.

>>26162931
>>26162936
Aye on those.

>>26160234
What do they have to be sad about? Oh sure, they lost a bridge, but Breaking Bad is on that night! Have they no priorities?

>>26162848

Status on the Canadian Jaeger?

Get with Japan and China together to see if we can get the land near the Hong Kong shatterdome to set up a Jaeger production line, with options for them to purchase part of our run for their own defense.

I'm hoping we'll be able to produce a new design from scratch at a rate of at least 2 per week, with the ability to upgrade the line to produce either a MP version of Striker or a new MkV Jaeger once we have enough MkIVs up to sustain losses while we convert the line.

Check on R&D to see what they have, if anything.

Include biological research on this.

>>26162926
Agreed. China is too valuable of an ally, especially considering how our only Shatterdome is on their turf. We can't piss them off.

Mechlab division doesn't have any opinions on religious affiliations, except the note that we don't want to have to build angel wings onto a Jaeger.

Is there any reason we can't have jaegers just waiting at the rift before the kaiju have a chance to come through and then beat the shit out of them when they do?
Also I'm casting my vote for the religion plan

>>26162993
While it would bring in funding, we understand what the issues would be.

>>26162936
>>26162926

Both of these.

No on the naming anything remotely religious.

We can´t have Divine Justice or Unstopable Jihad be destroyed, thats bad pr.

>>26162831
Yeah, but we've got more than enough boats to patrol the place with Indonesian cooperation. Unless the pirates are packing battleships, I don't see the need for subs.

>>26163021
Having Jagers on constant alert costs money. Money we don't have. Add in pilot exhaustion for being constantly jacked in, and it's no bueno, plus, we're vulnerable around the rift. Add that to possibility of another one opening up...
>>26163034
We could have something a little more subtle if needed however.

>>26162931
YES

>>26163048
The subs are for tracking, and not what I'm talking about.

I'm saying we can be funded by businesses, not just governments. Let's get Maersk NYK and Exxon on the line.

>>26162725
Crimson Typoon, Cherno Alpha, and Striker Eureka are fully operational. Breacher Omega is 30% constructed. Status on Maple Fury and Drunken Lass is mostly shadowed from us by their respective nations. We have 16 Submarines on patrol in all waters, 300 heavy lift helicopters, a Shatterdome base in Hong Kong, a half built Shatterdome in Tokyo, 342 million USD, and a massive merchandising effort underway. Nation status:
Japan, China, Mexico, UK: Excellent
All other Pacific Rim nations: Good
All other global nations: Moderate
Israel: Bad (Oy vey!)
PPDC: Low

>>26163034
I have to agree. Plus, if we were to name them something more subtle (Like the aforementioned Knight Templar), then that would incite anger in the Muslim communities due to the part the Knights had in the Crusade.

Nay on the naming them after religious figures. I doubt a Robo-Jesus would be popular with the Muslims.

>>26162931
100% AFFIRMATIVE

>>26162931
No. It seems like we're grasping for straws. With all the "networking" we've been doing with the world governments, It's already getting hard to shake the mercenary image.

Its time we started thinking outside the box. Golbi desert, its quite a whole lot of hot nothing. Lets use it to our advantage.

financial advisor, how much money we got to get a decent base going? Nothing to house Jaegers just people and a modest factory. We should think of building rockets.

>>26163099
What is the status of poison research and rods from god, rename the project to Thor's hammer.

>>26163097
Use Drones, not actual people. The loss of life looks bad on our part if we have available technology.

>>26163099
>PPDC: Low

What are these fuckers even doing without our machines. Surely they can't be wasting more money on new walls. If they are, I suggest we call them out on it.

>>26162931
I believe pacifist religions are not likely to help. That being said, having the backup of militant Catholics...THAT could be useful.

>>26163097

If we're trying to gain the support of companies, why not get on the horn with PMC's? Not for their small arms, but for help with logistics--helicopters for airlifting our Jaegers to problem areas, tankers and cargo ships for easier transport of supplies to and from the present and future Shatterdomes, stuff like that? In return, we give them our breakthroughs in some of our science fields, since we can't readily give them anything else.

>>26163099
Priorities:
Recruiting more pilot teams.
Construction of a European Shatterdome
Construction of a training facility
More income.See if Nike wants to sell Typhoon Basketball sneakers.
What if Pilots did podcasts? Could be a good vehicle for ad revenue, as well as publicity.

And whatever the research boys want to focus on, as long as it helps Jaegers, instead of detracting from them.

>>26163149
Use whatever. Just ask these industries if they'd be interested in our security. They're loaded.

Israel can suck a Jaeger sized dick.

Who the fuck are they to insult and accuse us. Next time they do, make a point about how you're there to guard all people, not just a 'divine' group of people who refuse to even try and defend the world from a fucking apocalypse.

Also, lets get in good with the Commonwealth Nations, bouncing out off the UK. If we can get in good with AUS/NZ, Canada, any number of african nations, we'll have an excellent net of support if anything goes drastically wrong.

>>26163099
Since we still need money something fierce, and the *ahem* questionably legality in trade of Kaiju parts is being done by mostly criminal organizations, we should get in touch with the CIA for a full dossier on everyone who's scavenging the kaiju's and demand a cut. But let's do so quietly...

CREATE ANOTHER JAEGER. We are critically under staffed.

Fairy Grace

High speed, high mobility Jaeger.

>>26163185
Yes, that would be a good idea. Give them the ideas we can't support, and get support from the things they have.

Why should we be building a space based weapons program (Because I' sure the USA will have no problem with that.) When someone else can do it better, and cheaper? etc.,

>>26163220
How about No because:

A) that name sucks

B) we're already constructing, what another 2?

>>26163189
Financial, Mechlab wants to know the practicality of using Advanced Materials like Aerogel-X in Mech construction. We've worked out that a given Jaegar could move about 25% as fast if we had access to Aerogel, but is it financially practical?

>>26163220
We're already working on building Breacher Omega. We only have the factory capacity to build a single Jaeger at a time at this rate.

Mechlab recommends opening contacts with North Korea. They can provide all the unskilled labor we could possibly need for welders, construction workers, and the like.

>>26163138
Are we calling the project Thor's hammer or Mjölnir?

>>26163220
Fuck that.

So far most of our Jaegers are based around quick movement but unable to take a decent hit. Get another heavy hitter like Cherno, but updated, and use it in tandem with lighter mechs.

>>26163185
I hope this doesn't become like NASCAR, with jaegers plastered with advertisement stickers.

>>26163291
>Mjölnir
We should ask the financial advisor if we can market Mjölnir.

That would alienate the "Hetero-normative" community. Should go with something generally considered speedy, but without identifying with particular groups. Like Alpha Thunder or First Strike.

>>26163202
Yes, we understand Isreal is being retarded, however we're doing our best not to antagonize. If they get worse, we can point out that most of the other nations approve of our existence and how we go about our business, and they're acting much like how Iran treated them. That'll put a bee in their bonnet and make us look better.

>>26163290
What are the possibilities of Mechlab using Helium 2 based Pneumatics (Nearly frictionless from what I understand) to make a faster Jager?

>>26163138
The Poison research is going very poorly. It seems that Kaiju Blue counteracts anything we throw at it on the biological level. We even tried a run of nanobot tech and it ate it up. The Rod of God program is running into similar problems. Getting into space will require an absurd amount of support and funding, and it won't be too accurate with newer, faster Kaiju.

In addition, Advisor, we might be able to make use of any training areas they already have, possibly expanding their academies for our benefit. Conn Pod simulations, tactics classes, fighting style training--say, we still have Gipsy Danger's old pilot sulking around in his bunk, don't we? Why don't we get him to train the new rookies, do something useful?

We had been discussing something of the sort, with a Mini-Jager competition during the Supebowl to increase funding. It wasn't viable at the time but it could still bring in quite a bit of revenue.

>>26163189
>Priorities:

If I can interject, we need to figure out why the Kaiju hit London.

They could have struck anywhere else in the world, even in the Pacific, and we still would have had such a slow reaction time that the target city would have been devastated.

Our priorities should be:
1) Improving response time. - Having our only world-wide base in Hong Kong means lengthy reaction time to a vast majority of Pacific coastline.

2) Figuring out why the Kaiju swam halfway around the world to attack an Atlantic city. Any why that specific Atlantic city?

>>26163390
That's the name of the two HGRs that make up the Fafnir.

>>26163364
Equip Jaegers with Laser-Designators, the ability to aim an orbital cannon manually would increase accuracy immensely.

>>26163411
Real Steel here we come.

>>26163414
To strike terror in the human population?

To inflict the most damage against human lives?

They could have easily attacked NYC though. Or Rio. Cape Town. Barcelona.

Why London?

>>26163414
Chances are not only because it was a populous city, but it was to test our response time, and just how effective diversionary tactics would prove to be.

Sadly, the answer is very.

I'm pretty sure we should move to plan two. Then, build an orbital shatterdome. We house one Jaeger in orbit and drop it on emergency situations.

>>26163381
I think the golbi desert to be the best launch site, it is inland and is in the middle of nowhere, it will take some 15 launches before we get the place set up.

But we could send a jaeger in parts, (limbs.)

Which brings me to the next plan. Interchangeable limbs for jaegers.

>>26163333
Helium-2 pneumatics would make a faster Jaeger but would also increase maintenance costs beyond what we consider practical.

>>26163307
Mechlab is now working on a new heavy hitter design. We may be producing a Mark 4 equivalent to Cherno. Back with the design in a bit.

Because if a Kaiju closes the distances a long-range damage dealer will be useless. If you look at the most successful Jaegers designs--Cherno Alpha, Striker Eureka, even Gipsy Danger--they were brawlers, with any long-range weapons being a complement to fists or blades.

>>26163711
its funny because in the book that has this image as its cover, an old guy sells toy versions of Titans.

It is time. The alert sensors ping. Another double event. Something big this time. Looks like one of them is the first ever Class 5. They both appear to be rapidly heading towards Vancouver before they seem to disappear from sensors. Canada offers 130 million USD to have a Jaeger or two moved to Vancouver till they're accounted for.

THE MARK 4 "HEAVY HITTER" IS AN ATTEMPT TO COMBINE EACH OF THE BEST FEATURES FROM JAEGERS OF THE PAST. CHERNO ALPHA'S "REACTOR ON LEGS" DESIGN, GYPSY DANGER'S TWIN SWORDS, AND STRIKER EUREKA'S WINGED PROFILE. THIS RE-USE OF EXISTING DESIGN ELEMENTS ALSO MEANS THAT EXTANT FACTORY SYSTEMS CAN BE RE-USED, AND MACHINERY AND PERSONNEL TRAINED TO WORK ON EXISTING JAEGERS CAN TRANSFER OVER TO WORKING ON THE NEW MODEL IMMEDIATELY.

THIS DESIGN IS AS-OF-YET UNNAMED. MECHLAB HAS DECIDED TO ALLOW MEMBERS OF THE PROGRAM TO NAME THE NEW JAEGAR.

Go ahead and vote. Let's use the same system we used to name Breacher Omega

>>26163737
Class 5? Shit. Send Striker and Cherno. Have Crimson scrambled and ready to defend the homefront. I don't like the idea of going up against a Class 5.

>>26163099

Begin prototyping and production of a Jaeger we can build on an assembly line, at the same time pitching to China, Japan, and maybe Australia for assistance in building a facility.

It'll be a Mark IV Jaeger, an all-rounder with a mount for the Japanese type railgun.

>>26163673

If the Imperium can have massive success with titans that use both long range and close range weaponry

why cant we build jeagers that can do that too?

>>26163740
Many of the past Jaegers didn't have names that specifically matched their home nation.

That said, it's a good way to get a funding. 'Oh no, Freyas Folly has fallen in battle. Donate now to see your namesake back on her feet!' Not a bad strategy at all.

Get Crimson and Striker out to Vancouver, and leave Cherno on standby if things go sideways.

Yup. Good book IMO.

Do we know yet that the jaegers need a kaiju to get through the rift?
I doubt taking the portal would stop the aliens from opening a new one but when we get the chance we could take the portal down to give us some down time to make more jaegers.

>>26163453
Listen to yourself!

Testing our response time...
Diversionary tactics...

Biology, is there any evidence that this kind of higher-level thinking is possible from a Kaiju?

Because we're talking about actual use of strategy and tactics by the Kaiju if PR is right about this...

'we' have tried sending Jaegers through the portal during our PPDC days. For some reason they never work. Bombs don't work either.

Nah, it lacks the short, sharp and most importantly, ever so slight silliness punch of a Jaeger name.

Two syllables in a name mainly.
CHERNO-ALPHA
GIPSY-DANGER
STRIKER-EURE-KA

etc.

Crimson Typoon can suck it.

We need something big to fire at range along with what we have

we have a sword, fists, feet and whatever

But at range all we have is missiles and a shitty plasma gun, we need a heavy laser or mega bolter or railgun or something

>>26163925
Assuming it's not there will get us killed. Assuming it's there doesn't cost us anything, keeps us on our toes, and might just save the world. It's just a little extra effort.

Of the names thrown around lately, Mechlab thinks "Gungnir Defiant" is the best

What have we heard recently from research about Kaiju biology?

>>26163973
My vote goes to this.

>>26163952
How about a net? Something to hold the Kaiju down for a bit. If it can be restrained then it can be moved or even captured.

And if we are building giant robots I'm sure we can build a giant net launcher. Hell, even bolas would do wonders.

>>26163991
It's got the right sound to it at the least. That sort of awkward and heavy thing.

Jaegers aren't poetic, their names have, traditionally, not been that either.

>>26163991

I second this.

>>26163973
>>26163991
I like both names but Borealis Stalwart seems to fit this jaeger to me.

Logistics is right. Based on past attacks and their locations, it can be proposed that the Kaiju are trying to eliminate the human race as a whole. They have been whittling our Jaeger fleet down ever since that first retaliatory strike made by Brawler Yukon in Vancouver all those years ago; I guess it only makes sense that they send their biggest, newest beast as an answer.

>>26164037
How good has the world gotten at making carbon nanotubes?
I say we make a net out that stuff. We might as well electrify the net while we are at it.

What is the pan pacific defense force doing right now? Building more walls? Can we get them to help us in any way?

>>26163952
Japan is working on a railgun. Mechlab is working on possible ways to mount it to a Jaeger.

Everyone, we need to focus on the Category 5 that's heading for Vancouver. We should send Striker and Cherno, they ought to work well together, and we'll need our best on the job if it's gonna be a Cat 5.

>>26164093
Carbon Nanotubes don't conduct electricity.

>>26164093
Yes. A big electric net. Might subdue it long enough for a quick kill. At the very least it should buy us some time.

>>26163762
>>26163814
You deploy Cherno and Striker to Vancouver, Just outside the wall. You ask about Maple Fury and get a 'we'll see what we can do' back. Crimson takes an overwatch position at the Shatterdome and waits. After several hours both Kaiju lifesigns are picked up approaching Vancouver rapidly. Roll d20 for combat!

Thats fine. Just put a conductive mesh around it. We have the space. This is going to be a big net

Be sure to have subs and helis in the area for tactical appraisal. We need to work on better interfaces. If subs could act as a separate eye with some sort of long distance dirft? No more blindspots.

Anyways, strategy should focus on safety first. See if we can hold these things off until Maple gets into the fray.

Do not suppose anyone has proposed creating a sort of satellite zeus weapons system that can be used by Jaegers for a sort of indirect fire system.

Incorrect, sir!

Scroll down to the "Carbon Nanotubes" section.

What about mounting the railgun on the back, and then have the mech go down on all fours? Railgun+Cannons for launching Nitrogen Containers or the freezing agents we discussed earlier, advanced targeting arrays, and expert marksmen?

FUCK THAT FUCKER IN THE FACE.

Call for Naval gunfire support from the russians and any stand-off guided muntions from the air forces around, SCALP EGs (Storm Shadows) and/or Slammers and/or JSOWs should at least cause SOME damage, especially the cruise missiles.

We'll need ever iota of firepower to win.

See if the Russians can send us a Bear squadron with AS-15 "Kent" with conventional warheads for support, and/or American B-1s or B-2s with air-launched stand-off weapons.

500 pounds of shaped charge isn't much to something this big, but it SHOULD feel it.
