See as people been doing battletech conversions.
Was thinking of the Invid as an invasion force. |

I might see it if I had been doing Robotech crossovers instead of BattleTech, since the Invid's motivation is tied in with the protoculture that powers mechs in the Robotech universe. Without that, you'd have to come with something completely new. _________________ "No set of rules can cover every situation.

True, I was thinking the mecha stats for a swarm type attack. The motivations would have to be vary different for the leaders. |

Hmm. I don't think I'd use it in my SWU. I'm mostly using BattleTech Mechs to increase the available pool of Walker models, including some for the Alliance. I really don't see how the Invid would fit in. _________________ "No set of rules can cover every situation.

If you use the original Anime Robotech was mashed together from, the motivation is much simpler. The Invid invade the Earth to colonize and terraform it basically.
For references the original anime that the Robotech New Generation chapter was altered from is called Genesis Climber M.O.S.P.E.A.D.A. _________________ "There's a set way to gain new Force Points and it represents a very nice system, where you're rewarded for heroism, not for being a poor conductor to electricity." ~Jachra |
