What's the best roleplaying system to run a game about mercenary

Bliss Stage or GURPS

AdEva ...in.. space?

>>46690088
I haven't played AdEva, but isn't it built around angst and sanity breaks?

>>46690105
true, but the mecha fight part is recyclable, also don't tell me mercenary children don't develop issues.

>>46690137
>also don't tell me mercenary children don't develop issues.

We both know Evangelion sanity breaks are a whole different category on their own. It's the difference between "War is Hell" and "I want to play an RPG about how hellish war is".

That said, I'll check out the rules.

This Bliss game seems interesting, too.

True, true,

Bliss Stage is very narrative, but about kids fighting a war they shouldn't be. Take that as you will.

Jovian Chronicles or Heavy Gear.
JC is Gundam with the serial numbers filed off.
HG is VOTOMS with the serial numers filed off.

And fucking twelve-year-olds.

>>46690490
....Yeah.

>>46690490
Seems like that stuff could be ditched fairly easily, though.

>>46690513
Ehhhhhhhhh I wish. A disturbing part of the game is about fucking you're underage friends. Not just fluff wise, but mechanically.

>>46690490

Yeah The fucking 12 year olds thing is a pretty key part of the narrative.

"I boned little Suzy so my dream mech has a stronger missile launcher, BOOYAH"

Don't forget the part where the game suggests naming operators, that you can role play fucking, after unrequited crushes.

So this is what happens when magical realm DMs write their own systems.

>>46690726
Yeah, pretty much.

Mech rules are vehicle rules and vehicle rules are grappling rules-tier in terms of being legendarily terrible everywhere.
