So, Nanoha x SRW, Nanoha getting Zeorymer, Fate getting a black Shin Getter 1, Dearche getting an edgier Valsion, allofthismighttakeplaceinPlaneptuneidon'tknow, and I'll provide stat sheets, and you guys can post mech suggestions, too! (warning: too much OC Gundam Wing or Gundam 00 mechs might create a very pissed off Hotblooded Author)

LYRICAL NANOHA ROBOT WARS INNONCENT
CHAPTER 01: ReRise, UP!
Summer 20XX...
A new hope arrived in the gaming industry...
A game about robots fighting under the control of the player...
It was known as...
Megama-
*THWACK!* OUCH! SCREW YOU, WHITE VIT-I MEAN BLANC!
* ahem *
It was known as...
Brave Duel.
"TELL ME WHAT DOES POT OF GREED DO!?"
Can you readers ignore this narrator and his problems, please?
"Come on! We've still got a long way to go!" Arisa Bannings, a (strawberry) blond girl with emerald green eyes shouted.
"Hurry up, Nanoha-chan~" Suzuka Tsukimura, a girl with long blue hair, called.
"Wait up, guys~" Nanoha Takamachi, the aforementioned girl, replied as she was catching up to her two friends.
It was opening day for the new VR game, Brave Duel, that everybody has been waiting for. It is not known for certain how many of them were fan of a certain teen novel that involved VR gaming, a shitty author avatar and one of anime's best (even if misused) female character. But we can all be sure that the amount is enough to invoke a certain meme.
Nonetheless, the game was still a marvel of modern engineering. Utilizing the Drift technology that was made to control mechanical humanoid bodies, the game can simulate the feeling of actually piloting a 50-ton warmachine (thankfully without the neural load) and the physics (or anti-physics, whenever it has anything to do with a Super Robot) behind it, yet maintain the (subjective) simplicity of playing an RPG game. The most marvelous breakthrough was the fact that for such a large game, it didn't require any in-game purchases at all! And we all thought only Nintendo can pull that off!
The three girls that we were focusing on before that little exposition are a trio of friends, who are all 4th year student in class 1 of Kansei Private Elementary School, with math teacher Amuro Ray as their homeroom teacher. Aside from now having the line "THIS FORMULA ISN'T JUST FOR SHOW!" burn itself into their minds through repetition, the girls are all wonderful people, mentored by wonderful teachers.
"We're finally here." Arisa said. "Hmm, this is the place! Hobby Shop T&H!"
Standing in front of them was a gigantic building. It was truly oversized for an hobby shop, and you would've been forgiven if you were to mistake this place for a miny-mall. The girls all let out the appropriate respond: "It's huge!"
Arisa was al giddy with excitement. "I can't wait to go check out that awesome mecha game right now!"
Suzuka and Nanoha was more composed. Nanoha addressed the first obvious issue "It might be hard to find it. After all, the place IS really big."
"Maybe we should ask one of the shop's assistant to help us find where it is." Suzuka added.
In a corner, a short girl with blond hair decorated with two ribbons was watching, her mouth slightly agape with joy. She immediately jumped out to greet the three girls
BGM: My Little Tromb-
not yet.
BGM: The narrator is an asshole.
"Welcome to T&H~ ! Are you looking for something? Onee-san will show you there!"
The girl wouldn't have had any problem replying to that greeting... if the girl in front of them wasn't about half a head shorter than them and was grinning happily. Arisa dragged Suzuka closer to discuss in private
"She's wearing an apron with the store logo on it, so she MIGHT be a store assistant. But she seems a bit younger than us..."
"Maybe she's...the daughter of the owners? I heard that people in a position of high power or is related to one often have rather high self-esteem... Like you, for examp-"
"H-Hey! When did I became the subject of discussion here?!"
As the two girl was talking, the petite blond girl tugged on Nanoha's sleeves slightly
"I'm Alicia! Alicia Testarossa. What's your name?"
"Huh?" Nanoha fumbled, as she was caught by surprise "Uh...er, umm..."
"I'm Takamachi Nanoha. Nice to meet you, Alicia-chan."
Alicia smiled brightly "Nanoha, right? What are you girls here for today?" she asked.
Arisa was the first to reply "I wanted to check out this awesome brand-spankin'-new VR game I heard about... Oh, and I'm Arisa Bannings."
Suzuka followed up "My name is Tsukimura Suzuka. Would you happen to know where we can find it?"
"Oh, thaaat! Well floopity doo-dah, you should've said it sooner!"
A while later...
"Our store most famous VR game is set up on the top floor. It's called Brave Duel!" Alicia then showed them the massive room with a ton of people surrounding what seems to be a big transparent box. Around the machine were a series of tubes (hopefully it isn't the physical manifestation of the Internet)
Arisa exclaimed "There's so many people here. This game must be really famous."
Suzuka added "Seriously...I haven't seen this many people since the premier of that Gunpla game..."
Nanoha asked "What kind of game is it?".
"It's a game where you are put in a virtual cockpit of your choice, whether it's a motion-sensing cockpit or a regular one, of a machine selected to fit you through our complicated algorithms."
"I-It's seems complicated. Will we be able to play it?" Suzuka asked. She was met with Alicia's peppy reply.
"Don't you worry a bit! My sister is GREATASTIC at the game! Just give it a go!"
"Well then, Alicia-chan, can you show us how to play?" Nanoha asked.
"Sure thing! But i'm going to need a helper..." She then turned over to one of the store's assistant. "Amyyy!" Alicia hollered, which got the girl's attention.
"Yesss? Amy here, at your service!" The assistant introduced herself.
Alicia then introduced the trio "This is Arisa, Suzuka and Nanoha. They want to try out Brave Duel!"
"Hiiiiiii~" the trio greeted.
"Oooh! What enthusiastic kids! Nice job, Alicia-chan!" Amy then exchanged hi-five and thumbs-up with Alicia, with both of them grinning happily.
"I want you to help me show 'em around, is that OK?" Alicia inquired
"No problem! I'm free right now." The energetic assistant replied.
"Awesometacular! Then the two of us can show you everything! So listen closely, girls! " Alica said, which was met meet a collective 'YEEEEAH!'
"First thing first, everybody gets one of these. "
Each of the girls was given a small USB-like device (albeit with much prettier decorations) and a deck holder that seems to be able to fit a 40-card deck. Whether or not the cards can be play on motorcycles is uncertain.
"The small flash drive is called a 'Data Cartridge'. It acts as your player identification and keeps a record of your data. It's very important! The deck holder is called a 'Duel Holder', which is used to keep your mech's ability and weapon skills. Think of it as skill tree, but the skill on there can be customized to your liking!" Alicia explained.
Amy then chimed in "And you know the best part?"
Followed by Alicia "You get both of them for free (amount of free giveaways are limited, only 77 set remains) as part of our grantastic opening celebration! In return, I hope you'll come and play a lot! That'd make onee-san very happy! "
"Thank you!" Nanoha exclaimed in joy.
"Since they make money of playtime per individual using the free ad that is basically the whole game for the various company that make mech-related content, which sorta reminds me of Youtube's monetization methods a bit, they can easily pick up new customers and profit from them... such a smart business move..."
"Arisa-chaaan." Suzuka tried snapping Arisa out of her deduction mantra.
But all of their their attention was caught after one single phrase was uttered:
"GETTER SPARK!"
All of them turned over to a screen, which was currently showing a gigantic black and yellow robot with bulky shoulders, a black and red cape and what seems like a 20-foot (in-game) tomahawk-like weapon in it's hand. It's opponent, what seems to be an airplane with legs and arms, was trying to get away from the black and yellow machine that was at least twice as big as the airplane mech was.
"Guh! I'll try THIS, then! Barret Shoot!" A voice, presumably the voice of the airplane mech's pilot, shouted, followed by what seems to be multiple glowing projectile from it's railgun-like arm...Only for each and every round to be cut down by the tomahawk-wielding Super Robot. The black menace then raised it pointing finger towards the sky, which conducted lightning from the black clouds above. The pilot of the airplane mech seems to have realized what is happening, and tried desperately to raise some sort of barrier around the airplane mech.
"Oh cra-"
"SHIN THUNDER CRASH!"
[Warp Field, raised]
*BOOM*
The thunderbolt struck the barrier, which raised up a cloud of smoke. After the cloud cleared, the airplane mech was heavily damaged, with gaps and exposed electronics on the surface of it's armor, with the right arm completely blown of during the raising of the barrier. Before the pilot of the unfortunate aerial assfagot can catch a breath, he saw electricity starts cracking around the black mech's belly button, followed by a calm, yet strong and determined female voice from the black mech.
"Built-in Attack, Trigger! Elemental Boost, Type-L!
GETTER SMASHER!"
A gigantic golden beam of energy struck the airplane mech and quickly ended the match. The girls was in awe.
"Ah, that must be an exhibition match. Looks like my sis' Super Robot still got it~ " Alicia chirped happily.
"S-She won..." Arisa was in a lost for words.
"...even though she was up against an adult!" Suzuka was also similarly amazed. Amy took this chance to gloat a bit "She's our ace~ we're so proud of her! Isn't she cool?"
Nanoha was looking at the pilot of the mech, now shown through the "cockpit view". She was a girl with blond hair tied into twin ponytail with black ribbons. Her pilot outfit was...special, to say the least.
Nanoha was totally in love with her
'datbootydatbootydatbootydatbootyholycrapthatperfect77/10bootydatbootydatbootydatbooty'
Alicia noticed the obvious yuri-riffic gaze that Nanoha was giving the pilot of the black Getter machine. "It looks pretty fun, right? "
"Yeah!" Nanoha replied happily.
After a bit of data gathering...
"These 'Card Loader' machines are pretty amazing!" Arisa exclaimed.
"With only the player's birthdate, bloodtype, sex and a Myers Briggs test, this machine can put together the perfectastic matching skill set and machine for the player!" Alicia explained.
"Nanoha-chan! Can you please show us your card?" Suzuka asked politely.
"Ah, here. It's..."
Nanoha Takamachi
[Nature: Hard Worker] [Melee: 135] [Ranged: 145] [Defense: 135] [Skill: 170] [Evasion:175] [Accuracy:180] [SP:50]
Skills:
-Prevail LV6
-Focus
Spirit Commands: [Focus:10] [Sense:20] - - - -
Spirit Commands remaining: [Spirit:40] [Guard:25] [Valor:40] [Zeal:60]
Terrain: A-S/G-A/W-B/S-A
It was a image of Nanoha, apparently holding some kind of magic staff (though the genre savvy would call it a "Mega Beam Cannon in disguise"), with data box overlayed upon the edges of the card. On the back was a generic red nebula-hurricane thing with a magical circle and the word "Brave Duel" overlayed upon it.
"That's your most fundamental card: your Personal Card. In BD, the skills and statistics of your character- also known as your 'Avatar' -are influenced by this card. The "N+" thing in the corner of the card is the "Card Rank", which indicates the power of a card. There are four ranks: "N", "N+", "R", "R+". It is rumored that there are higher ranks, but I have never seen anyone with one, though.
Also, remember that N cards are pretty much just cards for collection or cosmetic changes. Most card you use to fight will be N+ or above." Amy explained.
Alicia continued "Also, as you win matches and defeat foes, you will get PP-short for "Pilot Points"- to purchase skills and increase your stats. Also, if you combine other cards together, it will create cards with higher ranks and different abilities. Through raising your stats and fusing your cards, you can win games much more easily!
Now...I think it's time for you girls to meet your mechs in the game. You all look like you can't wait! " As Alicia finished her little intro, the girls looked like they are about to combust with joy.
After a load more technobabbles...
"So girls, ready to step into the world of chicks diggin' giant robots?" Alicia asked. The trio are currently in some sort of virtual hangar, pointing out towards what seems to be a desert.
"Ready!" Nanoha replied in her Grungust Type 2 – a Super Robot built with a transforming function that stood over 50 meters tall. It got two gigantic jet engines in it's shoulders, a bulky, cartoony build and a white and blue color scheme.
"If my mech have an extensive audio system, I'm in!" Arisa cheered within her Gespensts MkII Type SA – a Real Robot built for melee combat, and it just happens to possesses a... "interesting" attack, along with it's red and pink coloration. It got a pointy horn for decoration, a somewhat thick build and two sets of Plasma Stakes on it's arms.
"I'm ready if everyone else is ready." Suzuka said calmly within her Huckebein MkII – a Real Robot that have a strong emphasis on long-range assault and a look that basically invites Sunrise to throw at least 100 DMCA take down notice at it's face. The Titan-esque dark blue and purple color scheme doesn't help.
"READY...
...SET...
...GOOOOO...SHOOOOT!"
With a shout, Alicia pulled the lever and launched the mechs into the desert battlefield. The mech was launched into the battlefield rather roughly, so the cockpit shook a bit. The girls was caught by surprise by the realism from the simulator. Then they saw the environment outside the cockpit, felt the heat of the sun that are being remedied by the temperature control in the cockpit, and felt the slight rumble of the machines that they were piloting on the ground.
"W-Whoa!" Arisa almost jumped out of her seat from the initial shock.
"Amazing!" Suzuka was amazed when the contents of the panels in the cockpit changed rapidly after receiving the new data in it's surrounding.
"So THAT what BM Selector does..." Nanoha muttered to herself as she played around with the BM Selector- short for "Background Music Selector" -and discovered a few cool tracks "Hey, this is Amuro-sensei's ringtone!" Nanoha commented as she select the track named "MSG:CC- MAIN TITTLE".
BGM: MAIN TITTLE
"So, how is the Drift percentage, girls?" Amy asked.
Arisa remembered seeing one of those military documentary during the older days when the Drift was in army use and tried copying one of the reports, complete with faux-American accent and magnificent Engrish "LOCCENT, two hemisphere calibrated, Drift's holding strong at 80% and fluid synapse system currently stable with Grade A flow strength."
"When did we become the PPDC?" Amy helpfully pointed out. Alicia, however, played along
"Fufufu, this is Marshal Testarossa speaking. Pilots, please refer to your top-secret "Intelligent Devices" for further instruction on what to do." Alicia then tried furrowing her brows and frowning to emulate a military hard-liner, but only ended up looking more adorable as a result.
"Okayyyy? Now, how do I-"
[Do not worry.] A mechanical voice spoke up, originating from the staff that lies in the middle of the dashboards. Nanoha curiosity for the object raised at she thought it was only a decoration of some sort.
[Hello, Nanoha. Welcome to the world of Brave Duel. People calls me the Pok-Sorry, wrong file loaded.]
"H-Hello..." She's taking the whole "talking magical staff" pretty well, don't you think?
[I'm RH-01, your man-machine control translation interface, or Device. Shall I guide you through my basic operations?"
"Y-Yes, please!" Nanoha replied enthusiastically.
[Your mech possesses a aerial mode. After engaging it, you can move the unit through a Ace Combat-esque control scheme. If later on, you somehow managed to equip a flight-enabling parts on the mech, the control scheme will be automatically switch to an Armored Core-like one, which isn't too different from the current control scheme]
"I-It seems kind of difficult. I'm not as good at Ace Combat as I am with Armored Core's aerial units." Nanoha exclaimed
"You beat me at least 10 times in Ace Combat 2, you know!" Arisa shouted, probably because she don't want the person beating her to put herself down. Then, her lost would seems infinitely more shameful.
"L-Let me try..." Nanoha said at she had the hulking machine run forward to gain momentum for a jump, then triggered the transformation mid-jump, with the mech's legs doing the split, the arm fold back into the shoulder engines and the head lowered. Before gravity can even call the gigantic hunk of metal down, the thrusters came to life, boosting the mech into the air. In no time at all, Nanoha's Grungust Type 2 was flying freely through the sky in it's G-Hawk configuration.
"Nanoha-chan can already fly! That's so cool!" Arisa exclaimed. Meanwhile, Suzuka was looking over her mechs Isometric Radar Interface. "Hmm...So, enemy units will be marked with a red cursor when selected, while allied units will be marked with green cursors and neutrals will be marked yellow, right?"
[That is correct. You learn quickly, Suzuka] Suzuka's Device, a glove with claw fingers, commented.
Just at that moment, Arisa has finally mastered the basic combat commands "There's "Attack/Counter", "Guard" and "Evade", right?"
[Yeah! Get 'em, Arisa!] Arisa's Device, a whip-like sword that also manifested itself as her mech's weapon, cheered. Then, the head of Arisa's Gespenst turned upwards at the G-Hawk's direction, it's visor seemingly gleeming in the sunlight.
"Awwright, I'm coming for you now, Nanoha!"
Nanoha was suprised "Eh? Whaaaa?! Wait a second, Arisa-chan!"
"There's no stopping me now! I've already pulled the trigger..." The Gespenst charged up it's Flame Whip. The hilt throw out a spent catridge, raising up a bit of smoke. The blade suddenly changed it's color from orange into a vivid crimson color.
"Lash out like a whip... then SLICE!" The Gespenst swung it's Flame Whip, sending a wave of flame at the G-Hawk...only for the wave to miss the gigantic airplane completely.
"Jeez, Arisa-chan! That's dangerous!" Nanoha cried. The Gespenst stomping it's feet angrily should be a clear indication of Arisa's current mood. So too was the case the countless slash from the Flame Whip. Thankfully, none of the attacks hit, as Arisa continuously telling Nanoha to stay still so she can hit her. Frustrated over the chain of misses that probably raised her Will up to 130 already, Arisa have her Gespenst draw all 5 of it's Plasma Cutter along side the Flame Whip.
"Sure-kill technique! Flamvell Talon!" Arisa shouted, followed by the Gespenst slashing all of it's melee weaponry at the G-Hawk, sending a storm of fiery death at the flying machine. "Followed by this! Mega Blaster" The Gespenst chest immediately open up to reveal a cannon that unleashes a gigantic beam of energy.
**BOOM** "Maaaaybe I went a bit overboard." Arisa wondered, her Gespenst scratching the back of it's head. As the smoke cleared, she saw Suzuka's Huckebein standing in front of the G-Hawk, it's left hand stretched out and conjuring up what seems to be an ice barrier.
Don't worry, I'll pull up the ban list if she try to summon Brionac or Trisula. Maybe Gungnir too.
"Jeez. Stop that, Arisa-chan." Suzuka said, her Not-A-Gundam still holding up it's barrier and hovering in mid-air. Apparently, Suzuka got the [Type R] model that comes with a built-in flight capability.
"B-But it's a FIGHTING GAME! WE CAN HAVE PRACTICE MATCH, Y'KNOW?!" Arisa desperately tries to justify herself.
[Those two seems to have special attributes on their cards] RH-01 commented.
"Attributes?" Nanoha asked
[In their cases, they got the Fire and Ice attribute. They should have a good connection, whether as allies or rivals. If they were to obtain an Elemental Machine, their attributes will be further enhanced] The Device explained as Arisa's [Type SA] tried furiously to hit the now grounded Huckebein with her Flame Whip, but barely any attack landed a hit, and any that did bounced off the ice barriers- i swear I'm not ACTIVELY trying to make a YGO joke here.
Nanoha asked enthusiastically "Do I have a special attribute ?"
[No.]
"None...at all?" Nanoha was dejected, the feeling of inadequacy raising inside of her heart.
[However...The way you evaded your friend's attack and controlled your machine in the air earlier was magnificent, worthy of your S-rank in the "Aerial" terrain type. You may have a special gift for flying. ]
"A special gift for flying? Thank you, um...RH-01. It's kinda hard to say your name."
[Is it?]
"You're RH, so... How about I call you Raising Heart?"
[Thank you for the wonderful name. I hope I can serve you well, Nanoha]
"Yeah! Thank you too, Raising Heart!" Nanoha said happily.
[In any case, your play time is not unlimited (we still need to make money somehow), so you should play with your friends soon] Raising Heart said. Just then, a stream of light came from the sky and crashed down onto the ground, getting the girls attention. There was a holographic sign saying "A new challenger appears!" above were the light landed. As the dust cleared, they all saw the heavy object that landed...
|The Alteisen pierce its way into the field!|
BGM: Iron Beowulf
Standing slightly taller than the Arisa's [Gespenst MkII Type SA] was a red machine. It have a horn that seems a bit bigger than the Type SA's, suggesting functionalities other than "looking cool", complemented with two gigantic shoulders that look likes it's hiding something, while the left arm was equipped with a three-barreled machine gun and the right arm was holding a hammer.
The bulky design and the big honking calf suggest it was a Gespenst, but instead of spotting the slightly feminine red-pink colors of Arisa's Gespenst, it spots a red, white and black color scheme. It also loaded to the brim with an insane (as in, "you have to be mentally unstable to equip this much") amount of thrusters. It looks like a Real Robot that was trying to outdo a Super Robot...
...and it succeeded. Well, in the intimidation factor, at least so far.
"Never seen you guys before. Are you guys game testers?" a voice came from the angry-looking crimson rhino stag beetle mech, which was a bit off-puting when that voice sounded like a young grade schooler's voice.
None of them know the event that was about to transpire on this battlefield...
