For whenever I do end up running, whether it's the 7th or the 22nd, I'm working up a document with info here.  It includes character creation guidelines (using 6th edition) for those who want to write up and submit characters, or I'll write up pregens and have them available to choose from.  Mechs will be pregen, and will be written up using the 3rd edition Robot Warriors supplement, which is pretty different from standard Champions powers.

Love the body damage chart (3D6+body taken). Did you design that yourself?

I would like to request a sample character and what it would look like (military and non-military).
This way I can see the types of skills we need (such as WF: Laser guided missiles)

As for mechs -
Medium mech with two forms
mech and jet-fighter for me.
as for the type of medium mech - can the mech be close combat (sword) and the jet-fighter (or aerospace fighter) be long range?
*I can't image a jet being in hand to hand with a sword lol*
I think I'll go for all energy weapons, a sword along with maybe two heavy missiles (if this can be done)?

Nope!  That comes straight out of the old school Robot Warriors book.  🙂

Will do, probably sometime this weekend.  

Typically the way WF would work is you'd spend 1 point to buy it with one specific mech.  Beyond that is usually a GM call, but I usually go with 2 points for WF: EDF Mech Weapons Panels, or similar.

Certainly!  This is well within the system's capabilities. I should have something worked up for you by this weekend, as well.
