Must everyone fall in love these days....
To me the most realistic portrayal of a
love in war, was 08th MS team, with BB
and Miguel, it sucked but that's life.
The tragic love triangle of Char/Lalah
Lalah/Amuro is great, and bring's on the
rivalry fine, but she's my enemy but I
love her is TRITE and BEEN DONE TO DEATH...
Quess - Hathaway
Ayna - Shiro
Lalah - Amuro
Four - Camille
At least Bernie and Chris didn't know they
we're killing each other...

Ok, I have a weak spot for Gothic, Gaslight
Victorian Era stylings, and I think that as
a Manga book.
Steam Armor Gundam
Would be a great story... Even if we applied
it to MSG, kinda like the Gotham by Gaslight
story of Batman .vs Jack the Ripper...
Try this:
Amuro - Young middle class kid, tinkers with
machinery while his father the great
Inventor works on a top secret govt.
project, the Armored Giant Gundam.
Lalah - Very proper English lady, all prissy
in victorian garb, she's from India.
Studied with the mystics there for a
while and is the one who discovers a
weakness in the aliens.
Char - Very early prototype airplane pilot
red pilot's suit, and customized eye
slits in his mask. Dashing hero type.
Comes home to join the army after his
father's "great vision" seeing all the
alien motherships in his own backyard
telescope was too much for Char's dad
and Char wants revenge...
Chris - Yes McKenzie is one of the early ones
in the newly formed Earth Federation
Defense Forse. Formerly a stunt pilot
she's trying out for the Gundam unit.
Tight leather outfit, sash, goggles.
The solar system could be a bright polished
brass telescope, turned around, focussing a
light from a big solar collector, or lighthouse
bulb, ala Doctor Who... making a laser from
a lighthouse array.
Lalah's part of India could be one of the
"colonies" that is being invaded by the aliens.
As could Hong Kong, and the rest...
Since the characters need a way to get all over
the world fighting the bad guys, they would need
Bright - Noah is the commander of the Federation's
newest rigid frame lighter than air ship.
The new "White Base" is a derrigible, like
the "Hindenberg" only this one uses helium.
Hah a real reason for everyone elses ship
to explode like a balloon... The WB carries
three "Steam Armor" units...
