Right then. I'm bored and want to draw something.
I figured creating a new and original Gundam manga would be something fun.
Part 1 - Brainstorm.
Universe - ORIGINAL SETTING
Time - Early in MS development, in conflict, or post conflict with infighting?
Units Available - What are currently used to fight battles?
Please note, I will IGNORE any suggestions for Gundam Wing. It has a fully fleshed story from start to end, and i'm not going to ignore the "NEVER SEEN AGAIN" comment.

b/c you have pretty much good understanding of most MS/MA and how they work, the physics behind it, maybe you should just create your OWN.
Like original MS/MA, original timeline
I believe, for you, it is possible to create a whole new era.
If I was to do one, mine would be something near Macross Zero
Like before MS, and when it was going to be first rolled out.
Time would be something near our time
technology is something near our time also
Like if you were going to stick with UC, my story would essentially be turmoil on Earth, and the development of space colonies and moon colonies. But I guess there weren't enough battles then with MS that time....

Well, i'm personally tempted to do a destiny sidestory, or re-write it so it's less sucky, and does more of what the fans want (less athrun, no kira, heine alive, cagalli piloting an MS, mwu staying dead)
That's why I want guild members to suggest it.

Ophiuchus Well, i'm personally tempted to do a destiny sidestory, or re-write it so it's less sucky, and does more of what the fans want (less athrun, no kira, heine alive, cagalli piloting an MS, mwu staying dead) That's why I want guild members to suggest it. How would I rewrite Destiny,,,, I would stick with the same characters however, a.) no changing the story from Shin to Kira b.) stay on one side always (and in Destiny, that is ZAFT) C.) Hiene alive (I am actually leveling him up in G-Gen Portable. it sucks that he has no cut scenes) I can agree with the Mwu dead though.... but side story like Stargazer? what do you want to branch off too?

Well, the side story would either be:
1 - The struggle of ZAFT forces for acceptance after the junius 7 drop
2 - The struggle of EA forces against ZAFT in the war
3 - A story about those Patrick Zala loyalists.
But those ideas kinda suck.
I totally don't know what to do.
Hence my asking people here for story brainstorming.

sweatdrop That's REALLY an area for the show designers to make up.
So far, the only rule we have is "they always come in threes"

well from all the series that we got from Seed were mainly focused from the point of view of ZAFT and EA. have you ever thought of shifting the focus into a neutral side? ex. a neutral colony or even Orb? just a random thought.
for the main characters that is mentioned, I don't think we need to stem from them. we can slightly mention it, but I think it will be a good idea to keep it as original as possible.
It is also interesting to look into the program of human extending. Would there ever be a chance for EA to succeed in extending natural human to the point where it surpass coordinators? you can focus on the dark side of the politics behind the project... I think.... that'd make an interesting theme.... is it really a good thing to alter what nature gives human? rolleyes
just some random thoughts and comments... ignore me if you want mrgreen

I think a destiony sidestory would be cool. Keeping Heine alive is a must, and I'd keep Mu alive, because he is the person who makes the impossible possible. But on the otherhand an original story would be pretty cool, with it being early in MS development, with perhaps two standard MS types.

There are only TWO colonies in Cosmic Era, and they both got destroyed. However... what if one of the PLANTS wanted independance from ZAFT? They no longer wanted to follow those rules? Think we can go anywhere with that?

Think we can go anywhere with that? know what? getting all these colonies mixed up again... gotta learn more before talking. mrgreen well, those are good ideas! I bet there's definitely a sense of rebellions after all these wars. I mean, there's battles almost everyday, people must have had enough. also, in a time of chaos like this, there's definitely people who wish to rise into power that try to manipulate the crowd for their own sake. Go for it! 3nodding

Okay, so the choice is between:
Original Story
Seed Destiny Side Story
Destiny Altered Story.

which one do you want most? It sound to me that all of those have some advantages...
well for the first one, you are not restricted to any topic and you can create a story of your own.
the second and the third one you are more like stuck in a background, but then you don't have to worry about those stuff and concentrate in the characters and the plot instead... rolleyes

Actually, if it were a side story, you'd have to make NEW characters as well as a plot. A re-write does not.
Re-Write is the easiest.
Side Story is the mid difficulty.
Original Story is the hardest.
Now, which does the guild wish to undertake?
