Super Robot Total War?
Super Robot Wars, a game that I very much enjoy, is, to put simply, like this:
What if we can make a robot-era mod for MIITW, replace the trait/ancilliary system with one more familiar with Humongous Mecha fan, for instance:A Massive Multiplayer Crossover franchise, based off almost every Humongous Mecha series ever made in Japan. Also known as Super Robot Taisen if you're looking for the US releases (retitled to avoid a trademark conflict with Robot Wars) or just feeling particularly Japanophilic. In western terms, imagine if The Avengers (both teams of that name), the Justice League, Spider Man, the Scoobies, the Fantastic Four, the X Men, the Doctor, and The Incredible Hulk teamed up with GI Joe and SG-1. Now imagine the threat it would take to bring them all together, and imagine them pounding it flat.
Example Trait:
Newtype: This character is one born in space and gifted with Newtype abilities. He doesn't benefit from the distrust of Earthborn humans, however. +1 Command, Management, -1 Influence.
Hot-Blooded: More often than not his hot temperament works against him instead of to his advantage, but sometimes it may turn the tide of battle. Often awesomely. +3 to the morale of all troops, -1 to Command, Management and Influence.I know such an idea as a SRW mod for RTW is stretching it too far, but this is just an idea for thoughts.Example Ancilliary:
Experimental Fin Funnel: "If Amuro can do it, I can do it too!" + 1 to the valor of general's bodyguard.
Loli Companion: Why this noble man keeps a young girl in his list of close associates is best not discussed. -2 to Influence. 40% reduced cost to bribe.
Please pardon me if it sounds too out-of-this-world.
