About the adventure
This is basically an introductory campaign to the system of Steel Hearts. The world is very much a blending of the default Steel Hearts setting with Gundam's Universal Century. It is designed to last 2-5 sessions, however is capable of expanding into something larger if the players are interested in continuing. You are pilots running military drills on Earth when events take place that quickly wrap you up in a governmental conspiracy, as humanity quickly tips toward yet another war.

About me
Hi there! Long time GM of my home group, as well as various online games. My interest with table top roleplaying really started when I was ten, and made a dice rolling mechanic to accompany a story that I had my friend play through. It wasn't too long after that when my sister gifted me her copy of the second edition Dungeons and Dragons Player's Handbook. From there, I got together with some friends, and started playing. Going forward, we eventually moved to fifth edition Dungeons and Dragons, as well as various other systems over the years. I generally consider myself a bit of a mega nerd. A lot of my childhood was spent reading things like “Star Wars: the Essential Guide to Characters” and other such books, and when I began to delve into the internet, reading various fan run wikis. Lately, Doctor Who and Gundam have been by major nerd spheres of interest.

Creating your character
We will be having a free session 0 where we will create characters as a group, and go over the major mechanics of the game, and possibly playing a short while depending on what time allows us. I also have a number of pre-made characters that are available for use if that is preferred.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will be expected to have the following: -A discord account -Decent Internet -A decent microphone -To be decently audible and not have a ton of background noise -A roll20 account will also be required for the purpose of maps Knowledge of the system is not required, nor is any real knowledge of mecha fiction.
What Char brings to the table
I have a fair amount of genre knowledge, and have years of experience as a GM. I tend to do some voices for characters, nothing professional by any means, but enough to distinguish between various characters encountered.
