This is a series of photos of when I made my first version of the game, based on Pacific Rim at the time. I was hoping to get licensing rights, but it was a pipe dream. The symbols you see on some of the cards are from Pacific Rim when I was going to originally create the game that way.

 

At the time, I used my own printer to print the cards.

 

I bought circular adhesive labels and would cut 30mm wide circles and stick the printed labels on to the circle tokens.

 

Then I would cut out the cards from the sheets.

 

I used plastic sleeves so it was easier to handle the cards and of course not get too

much grease on the cards when handling then during game play.

 

Next I would cut out the square damage tokens.

 

Last, would be the character stand up tokens. When I was doing this for Pacific Rim, I had researched all of the jaegers and kaiju based on the books and movie, and put their images onto the standups. I had about 12 kaiju and 8 jaegers.

COMPANY LOGO OPTIONS

These are images of my company logo for when I publish the game and create expansion sets, and other game systems I have in mind. ATC means Advance To Contact. It is still a work in progress, but I will have a design by the time I do the Kickstarter in October. If anyone has any ideas, I am willing to hear them.

My First Mech Design

This is one of my earliest designs done almost 30 years ago when creating my own universe. The new mecha are a little more sleek but still battle worn.

COMMAND WARRIOR MECHA

 

 

 

 

 

Height: 60m

Primary Role: Command and control the battle of friendly forces.

Secondary Role: Act as frontline fighting unit.

Description: Two legged mecha. The colour scheme is based on its primary terrain. Usually gunmetal grey or woodland camouflage. Carries a magnetic rail cannon, two edged retractable forearm blades, disposable missile launchers on shoulders and legs.

Background: The UNRF Command Mecha, although not as streamlined and fluid as the Battlemaster’s Command mecha, was created as close humanly possible to the original design. The one main difference is that the Command Module is a three person cockpit with the Pilot and Gunner sitting side by side and the Commanding Officer sitting behind and above them. As the humans were not as advanced as the Djoreli, and it would take time to develop their technology to the same level, their alternate means was to allow for the Commander to command, the pilot to drive the mecha, and the gunner to control the weapon systems. Especially for a mecha this size. Before the arrival of the Battlemaster and the Sazzarran invasion force, the humans only had infantry power armour and mecha that were 5 metres tall, used as heavy support. Mecha of that size were easier to pilot for one person, and the humans has spent their own number of years gaining experience using the machines.

THE THUNDER DRAGON - A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH

Height: 160m from head to tail

Primary Role: Front line assault kaiju

Secondary Role: None identified

Description: The Thunder Dragon is generally chromatic in colour. Some will be a metallic purple, others will be green, and still others a mix of two or three colours. They have been upgraded with armour all over their body, which is removable at the right points. The armour does not limit their flight ability in normal Earth-like gravity, since they originally came from a world that had a higher gravity.

Background: The Bogra Drakka-zi is the second larget largest alien species the Sazzarran have encountered so far. It is also the best of their Setakrozi. The Bogra Drakka-zi are a nomadic race of creatures found at a giant gas planet located in the Gosamer system. The Sazzarran were siphoning the gas from the planet in order to refine and later fuel their ships. While doing so, they noticed strange six limbed creatures floating through the layers of gas and cloud formations. Upon closer inspection the Sazzarran were surprised to see giant dragon-like creatures of various colours flying through and apparently sucking in the gas occasionally. This seemed to give them a boost in speed. They rarely had to flap their massive wings to move about because the atmosphere was so light. The Sazzarran came back later to find some of the creatures still there. They created massive electronets to stun and capture the creatures. It was not easy considering how fast the Bogra Drakka-zi were, but in time a number of them were captured and taken back to a Sazzarran occupied world for study. The world was just over 1g, which was one-third of the pressure on the gas giant. This allowed the Bogra Drakka-zi to fly much faster. When fitted with Armour plating in vital parts of the body, the Bogra Drakka-zi were that much more powerful in combat. In fact, during one of the tests, the Sazzarrans discovered that when the creatures made any loud noise in a breathable atmosphere it became like a sonic blast, which would distort armour and cause massive internal bleeding and death of organic beings. In a matter of a 20 year span, Warlord Azzarro finally had an arsenal of kaiju prepared for battle.
