Have Al & Cherish distract Auntie...
-1. Like ShadowStrike said, too vague. Knowing ffs, they'd do something like stage a recreation of the Moon landing and alert Auntie to the fact that something's going on.

protip guys, just use mm for caliber measurements. It's actually acceptable according to wikipedia
Will do. Here's hoping that's the caliber measurement they intended.

....what did you use to roll? Those are definitely some at least mildly crazy rolls.

Not sure why infantry makes a difference, but alright.
Infantry always makes a difference. Combined-arms is pretty much vital to any realistic military engagement. You don't see armies sending in waves of nothing but tanks; why would they only send mechs? They have many of the same weaknesses (and strengths) as modern armor, and roughly the same as cavalry of earlier centuries.
TL;DR: One weapon will never win a war alone.

I think it's funny how half the weapons are highly-advanced, and the other ones are bullshittingly old.
Indeed.

Yay, I'm in! Sheet edited; since the mech's okay, I added in my (one, hopefully-minor) Trait. Let me know what you think of it.

2,3,3,4,2,2

I think that's about right. Feel free to disagree.
I get two? I need to think of another, then.
How powerful would a mech have to be for the owner to get only one trait?

*readies flamethrower*

Meanwhile in Australia, there's about 4 stereotypes: bogans, tasmanians, aboriginals, and everyone else.

Yeah, but America: A Wild West Darwinian nightmare full of war-mongering and ignorant morons whose infuriating prosperity is the result of their colossal greed and evil. Americans come into your country either as tourists or invaders, always acting like they own the place and letting you know how it 'should be' run. They're either obese (with a diet solely consisting of synthetic fast food and TV dinners), Moral Guardians, trigger-happy cowboys from their Deep South, criminals that rule the urban areas, or shameless anorexic rich bitches from Hollywood California.
You forgot the few sane men who've considered moving to Europe or Canada to escape the madness.

Gotta love Aussie drinking culture.
There are different drinking cultures?

((You're acting like they were destroyed a long time ago. They are being destroyed now. Or being taken offline - I believe there was mention of a power junction being destroyed or damaged. Either way, the result is the same - and no, there wouldn't be record, since it's happening in the present.))
((Hm. My mistake on the first part.
But yes, there should still be records of them being destroyed, because you have to destroy them before they stop sending information, yes?))

I think it's fair to say that none of us really understands what's going on. piecewise, could you give a detailed description of what we know of the issue with Aresteve's answer to Sean?

((Regardless, we should be prepared for the possibility that we would lose communications with robots there. Okay, I misunderstood the intent of that section, but still...seems like automation for the 'bots is a thing we should include. After all, if the cause was destruction, wouldn't we have record of them being destroyed?))

"Heh. Not really, been trying to figure out how to promote a more socially-responsible chip though. Remarkably, people don't want to pay half again as much for a computer just so they're not buying the chips from the most infamous dictator since the second World War. Hear anything interesting on the news lately?"

Icarus has not been gurpsed
I would like Grimrick to be gurpsed
Aye-aye.

... I have a robot template that can be used, though that requires we use racials and... yeah.
Do tell. Racial templates are, after all, just a bunch of traits bundled together.

"Must be the bootleg ones governments and stuff get."
...Huh? How does this explain anything?

Also, who needs GURPSing?

What, other countries make you keep your phone numbers? The concept behind that joke seems pretty universal.
