Redesigning the Warp Delta

After the success of the NX project with the launch of the NX-01 Enterprise is 2151, the United Earth Starfleet began work on a smaller, simpler starship design able to accommodate the warp 5 engine. This led to the production of the Yeager-class destroyer: a small delta-shaped craft capable of keeping pace with the new NX-class starships as Earth took a more and more active role in galactic trade and politics. Designed primarily for defense and patrol duties, the Yeager-class was a simple, durable design that served as the United Earth Starfleet's workhorse prior to the Earth-Romulan War, and after the war served admirably in the new Federation's starfleet for several decades.

The primary hulls of the Yeager-class starships were constructed on Earth, where they were fitted with powerful rocket boosters and propelled into orbit with the aid of mass drivers. Once in orbit, the rear components were gutted and replaced with the warp engine components, including a warp field regulator

Commentary

The Warp Delta only appeared very briefly in the latter seasons of Star Trek Enterprise, usually in the background part of a battlegroup defending Earth in the episode

One idea I had while trying to determine appropriate proportions for the warp nacelles is that the quantum slipstream drive would produce enormous stresses on the warp engine, effectively causing the reactor/nacelles to "burn out." So I connected the nacelles to a block-shaped pod at the bottom of the hull, with the idea that the entire warp engine assembly could be swapped in out as-needed. If you download the model for yourself, you'll be able to swap between three different nacelle configurations--the default nacelles, longer Sovereign-style nacelles, and shorter, stubbier, Intrepid-style nacelles.

The most dramatic change I made to the design is the addition of a secondary hull, loosely modeled on that of the hypothetical NX-refit class, which would have debuted in Enterprise' fifth season. My thinking was that this addition makes the "evolution" of the traditional Starfleet starship design (disc-shaped primary hull, cylinder-shaped secondary hull, nacelle pair) from aerospace craft a bit clearer. My thinking was that these ships would primarily be constructed on Earth's surface, then launched into orbit, where they could be outfitted with a secondary hull to accommodate components that could not be installed on the planet due to the necessary restrictions of maintaining an aerodynamic profile. Over time it's easy to imagine these basic forms evolving: the delta-shape eventually becoming circular, once orbital shipyards becomes more standard, the secondary hulls becoming larger, and the nacelle pylons shifting from the the primary to secondary hulls. Perhaps this is an unnecessary half-step, but I found it fun to model.

Of course, l never intended that this new version should replace the classic (if that's the appropriate word to use here) design depicted ever-so-briefly in Enterprise, so I made sure to build the model such that the secondary hull could easily be removed--resulting in the simpler, cleaner design we are all(?) so familiar with. (I know there are other people out there infatuated with starships--there may well be dozens of us!)

In my experience modeling starships, I've learned a great many things. And while it may seem too forward for an amateur like myself to offer any advice on this subject, I have discovered one universal rule that it feels appropriate to share here: smaller is always better.

To briefly explain, when designing ships I have tendency to overestimate scale. I've found, while browsing many the models and concepts from other starship aficionados, that this is an extremely common tendency. This is especially problematic when I redesign ships, as I did back with my Excelsior-class model and, indeed, as I am doing here. Essentially, the question to ask--constantly--is this: what is the minimum size these components need to be in order to plausibly function? And that is what the entire scale of the ship needs to be oriented around. With the Warp Delta, there were few elements of the model to indicate scale--only the bridge superstructure (which can be misleading) and the single row of windows along the edges of the hull. My solution will be more evident in the cross-section in the Gallery below, but to briefly explain it: I was able to "minimize" the design of the Warp Delta to a mere three decks. The result is slightly larger windows, or portholes, which in theory I ought to have shrunk a bit to reflect the more limited technology of a primitive era, but in practice I'd prefer to maintain parity with my other models--which means standardized window sizes across all eras and civilizations. It's much easier to determine scale at-a-glance when windows are all the same size, whether or you're looking at a 22nd century human cruiser or a 24th century Romulan dreadnought (though god help me if I ever manage to finish that model to my satisfaction).

This smaller size is much more appropriate to a starship that essentially begins its life as just a really big plane that needs to be slung up into space--the more mass a ship like this has, the less believable it'd be, yeah?

To Because the warp delta was only ever a "guest" ship, and had so little screentime, I ~~was free to make up up a bunch of details~~ had the opportunity to invent details that could plausibly exist. As I stated earlier, my headcanon for this design is that it would be constructed--at least partially--on Earth's surface, before being launched up into orbit. Probably via some kind of thrust booster more mass driver. In either case, this would require temporary components attached to the aft end of the hull which would later be removed. To reflect this, I made the aft hull "unfinished" -- which also serves as a stark contrast from the "perfectly smooth" hulls that characterized 23rd Century federation starship design at Gene Roddenberry's insistence.

The exposed pods (reactor cores?) on the secondary hull also reflect this more primitive technology, I hope.

So the aft end of the hull features several in-set details: large tanks (presumably fuel tanks, or some other kind of potentially hazardous material best kept contained outside the ship) as well as windows for a mess hall and hatches for cargo bay access. The idea being that containers with foodstuffs could be slotted into these bays and accessed directly from the galley.

Y'all may not be able to tell just by looking, but the hardest parts of this model? The nose. Basically, the bridge dome is a bizarre shape that required some... imaginative interior design (a capsule bridge and a small observation half-deck) and because it's positioned so far forward there was little room from the required registry text.

Many of the starship designs in Discovery suffer from a similar problem, and their solution has typically been to reposition the registry to the sides of the hull. This is... not a solution I'm fond of, but perhaps I should reconsider: it's certainly much easier! Instead, here, I tried to cram a small registry onto the very tip of the nose--and getting text to look nice on a curved surface is not easy! Ultimately I think I managed a passable job, but hoo boy, I hope I don't have to try anything like that again.

That just about covers everything, I think. The great problem in allowing a backlog to build up, as I have, is that it's easy to forget crucial details! If you're at all interested, I strongly recommend you check out this model for yourself! Nothing beats examining the thing in full 3D.

The "capsule bridge" visible from outside the hull.

Bridge interior, facing forward. The viewscreen is at an odd angle that wouldn't be ideal with modern display technologies, but hey, what is SF for if not hand-waving problems like that? Let's just say it's holographic.

Bridge interior, facing backward. There are six stations in addition to the captain's chair, making this bridge feel especially claustrophobic.

Just in front of the bridge is an observation deck, positioned halfway between decks 1 and 2.

It's also fairly cramped and doesn't have much space for anything beyond some simple seating standing room.

The aft end of the hull features a large mess hall. While not strictly necessary, I think it's important to consider large "sets" like this when considering Star Trek ships. Spaces where hypothetical dramatic scenes could play out among the crew.

You'll notice I neatly evaded needing to to model the kitchen by placing a shutter over the counter.

Directly next to the mess hall on either side are cargo bays where storage containers can be neatly slotted in.

Beyond which are the storage tanks, which by necessity come in several sizes.

The (optional) secondary hull features a additional pair of phase cannons, indicating that while the "refit" version is primarily about extending the ship's range, it also adds a bit of extra firepower. Perhaps a development of the Earth-Romulan War?

Nestled between the phase cannon ports and torpedo tube are a pair of triangular plates--simple navigational deflectors to protect the ship when the secondary hull is not attached.

Determining the appropriate weaponry was a bit difficult. The NX-class features four torpedo tubes, which seems like overkill relative to the photon torpedo tubes of later ships, but doesn't necessarily correlate to greater relative firepower. But the NX-class is also rather large. I ultimately settled on just the single torpedo tube, as I found that the other options made the hull look too busy, and it was already crowded enough with the phase cannons and deflectors.

In addition to the pair of phase cannons on the bottom of the main hull, there is an additional pair located at the base of the "wings" -- where the warp pylons attach to the main hull.

The secondary hull attaches directly to the point where the main reactor would be. My thinking was that the secondary hull would primarily function to provide a secondary power reactor to allow the refitted Warp Delta greater range and combat capacity. The new, large deflector dish would probably also correlate to better sensors.

Due to the small size of the Warp Delta, there's really no space for a proper shuttlebay, but I did make sure to place a pair of vertical-launch bay doors on the bottom of the hull to accommodate a pair of shuttlepods.

When I was a kid, I though the warp nacelles of the ENT-era ships features little glowing blue pods/balls rather than the warp coils of later craft. This is something I reproduced in some of my earliest models. But, in fact, that was just an illusion created by the bar-pipe that runs over the exposed warp coils. Oops!

I believe the "warp pod" in the TV show's original model is identical to that of the NX-class, but I chose to take some liberties with my revision. It's essentially the same shape, but simpler and streamlined.

Reimagining the Dauntless

2019-03-26T01:33:00.002-05:00

Introducing the Dauntless-class U.S.S. Clarke.

In-Universe Context

Registry	NCC-81303
Class	Dauntless-class
Type	Light cruiser
Active	2376 to 25^th century
Decks	10
Length	Approximately 236m
Capacity	400 humanoids

While stranded in the delta quadrant, the U.S.S. Voyager first encountered quantum slipsream technology in 2374, a new form of transwarp propulsion that promised travel through space at far greater relative speeds than conventional 4th generation warp drives. Attempts to retrofit the Voyager herself with a quantum slipstream drive in 2375 proved unsuccessful, but data on their attempt was transmitted back to the Alpha Quardrant, and by 2375 the Pathfinder Project hastily began experimenting with their own quantum-slipstream spacecraft. The first experimental Slipstream vessel, the U.S.S. Dauntless, NX-81300, launched in 2376, followed shortly thereafter by the U.S.S. Clarke, NX-81303.

As Starfleet's first attempt at a quantum slipstream-capable starship, only Dauntless-class starships were ever built, due to the design's inability to maintain a quantum slipstream for more than several seconds. Maintaining a quantum slipstream also produced incredible stresses on the warp drive, necessitating the use of a modular engine system that allowed the entire warp engine to be quickly replaced.

By 2380, the experimental Dauntless-class starships were commissioned into the fleet, and served as light cruisers and long-range couriers, with at least one Dauntless-class starship remaining in service well into the 25th century, where it fought at the Battle of Procyon V. Meanwhile Starfleet found much more success with the Dauntless' quantum slipstream successors: the Arbalest-class and Vesta-class, and was eventually able to retrofit limited quantum slipstream drives on the Luna-class and Sovereign-class.

Commentary

Building a model of a Dauntless-class starship is a bit of a challenge, as the Dauntless both is, and is not, a Federation starship. First introduced in Star Trek Voyager as an alien starship masquerading as a Federation vessel, the Dauntless' would later be incorporated into the fleet when its 3D model was used when Star Trek Enterprise jumped to the future Battle of Procyon 5.

There was almost certainly no deep meaning behind this reappearance of the Dauntless: the Enterprise SFX team needed some futuristic-looking Federation starships for the battle, and they already had a model of the Dauntless they could use with little to no alteration. So they did.

Foundation Imaging's original CGI model, created for Star Trek Voyager: Hope and Fear (season 4 episode 26).

My goal with the U.S.S. Clarke was to take the general idea of the Dauntless, and convert it into something appropriately recognizable as a Federation starship. The original design (pictured above) was very alien, but I wanted to try and keep as many of the original proportions as I could, while adding in the necessary Starfleet detail.

I made three major alterations to the original Dauntless design: first and most obviously, I adjusted the size, proportions and placing of the warp nacelles to be more similar to conventional Federation designs; second, I took all of the concave curves of the original design, and made them convex; and lastly I reduced the height of the ship slightly and made the overall profile slightly more angular.

I also enlarged the shuttlebay, which was never well-defined on the original model (though it is still quite small), added in the weapon systems, lifeboats, thrusters, panel lines and so on. Using the Eaglemoss model as a reference, I noticed that there were windows inside the "lip" of the primary hull. This was a detail I liked (I love inward-facing windows), but it didn't make much sense on the original design as that "lip" was far too narrow to accommodate a deck, without ballooning the size of the Dauntless to an absurd extent.

I adjusted the shape and width of the lower primary hull to accommodate a single "outer" deck, and used this detail to determine the approximate scale of the Clarke (it's 236m length feels appropriate next to the 344m long Voyager).

Ultimately I never quite felt satisfied with the design, though I was fond of certain elements (I had a lot of fun modeling the "ridge" at the front of the primary hull) and gradually lost-interest. You may notice that the warp nacelles aren't quite as detailed as the rest of the model--that's why. I ended up detailing the ship starting from the fore and working my way aft, so the rear of the ship ended up being considerably less polished than the front. Almost immediately after finishing the Dauntless, I ended up throwing together a little over a dozen different study models to explore the possibility of replicating the wedge-shaped primary hull from the Dauntless in another design, at least two of which I plan on iterating further. So if you like all these triangles and pointy bits, keep an eye out for those in the future.

Redesigning the Centaur

Introducing the Centaur-class U.S.S. Chiron:

Following the successful transwarp experiments of the U.S.S. Ardennes, Starfleet designed the Excelsior to be the first of a new wave of starships built to take advantage of the new four fourth generation warp drive (which necessitated the adoption of a new warp scale). The first ship of the Excelsior-class, the U.S.S. Excelsior, was launched in 2285, and it was the first of many. The Excelsior-class rapidly became the "face" of the United Federation of Planets, as it proved to be one of the most capable starship designs in Federation history and was soon a ubiquitous part of the fleet. The Excelsior remained at the forefront of the Federation's exploratory and military efforts throughout the 23rd and 24th centuries, and the Excelsiors combined participated in more first contacts than any other starship class to date.

The U.S.S. Chiron, launched during the third Federation-Klingon War that precipitated the Dominion War in 2372, was the first Type-D Excelsior-class starship built. Assigned to the Federation's seventh fleet, the Chiron was one of only 14 ships to survive a disastrous counterattack operation in the early months of the war. The Chiron's secondary hull was lost in the battle, and the Chiron became one of the first Excelsiors to be refitted into a Centaur-class starship. As a centaur-class starship, the Chiron served the remainder of the war in a support capacity, and eventually restored after the war.

Commentary

After completing my Excelsior project, modeling a Centaur seemed like the next logical step: despite only appearing briefly in a single episode of DS9, the Centaur is a fan-favorite design, and arguably one of the only kitbash designs that feels unique or otherwise compelling. Generally, I don't like kitbash models--they're only ever the product of necessity, and it always shows. The Centaur model itself has a great profile, but like most kitbashes, suffers from having far to many minor details--bits of bobs of plastic glued onto the whole for no other reason than to differentiate it from the original model. (You can read more about the Centaur-class studio model at this Ex Astris Scientia article.)

As always, when I model a ship, the first thought in my mind is, "why does this design exist?" I've never been fond of the idea that kitbashes only coincidentally resemble the starships whose parts they borrow, so for me to justify the Centaur-class, I first had to explain why Starfleet would bother building such a ship using an Excelsior-frame, when it would arguably be better to simply build an Excelsior-class starship in the first place.

Ultimately the rationale I arrived at was perhaps the simplest, and most obvious: the Centaur is not a "real" starship class, but rather a temporary solution to a temporary problem. During the Dominion War, the Federation suffered enormous losses. They were losing ships left and right. Surely, then, their shipyards would be at capacity, busy building new ships and repairing old ships as quickly as possible. If an Excelsior-class starship were to suffer catastrophic damage to its secondary hull, with the primary hull remaining intact, it would be prohibitively expensive to construct a new secondary hull to affix to the old saucer. Likewise, as the primary hull of an Excelsior is not warp-capable, it possesses little to no combat utility. The solution? Simply affix a different, smaller secondary hull to allow the damaged Excelsiors to continue participating in the war effort, despite their diminished capacity.

This justification allowed me to be "lazy" and simply re-use the primary hull of my Excelsior-class Type-D model, whose new features already go a long way toward erasing the need to replicate some of the Centaur's more bizarre features, like the way the secondary hull is merged with the saucer to allow for a very small, forward-facing shuttlebay. My saucer, after all, already has a vertical-launch shuttlebay on the primary saucer.

As such I felt little need to adjust the Excelsior's primary hull; the new secondary hull would attach to the bottom of the saucer using the exact same "neck" apparatus as the Excelsior proper, though it would need to be much shorter in order to more closely adhere to the proportions of the studio model.

I also re-used multiple components from the Excelsior model on the Centaur's new secondary hull: the two forward-facing torpedo tubes are the kind of cylindrical launchers as the Excelsior's aft torpedo tubes, and the navigational deflector, too, is the same--but scaled down. In order for the new secondary hull to also be able to operate independently, I added to small engine pods on each nacelle strut, near the secondary hull. After that, it was merely a matter of adding all the other little necessary bits and bobs. My only change to the primary hull was to add some slight discoloration to the hull panels, to subtly indicate that sections of the hull were damaged and hastily repaired--a neat visual trick borrowed from the Millennium Falcon.

One of the stranger and more divisive aspects of the Centaur-class is the spacing of the nacelles. To some fans, they're too far apart. For what reason would Starfleet built a ship with nacelle struts so long, with so much empty space in between? Such a wide ship would require a much larger warp bubble, we can reasonably assume, so surely it would be more efficient to cluster the nacelles closer together. Well, herein lies the difference between the Excelsior and the Centaur: where the Excelsior is a heavily armed starship capable of operating on the front-lines in major combat engagements... the Centaur is not. The only time we see the Centaur, it's patroling a quiet section of the front lines (we can assume that in DS9: A Time To Stand, Sisko's route into Dominion space tried to avoid areas where it would be more likely to encounter other ships). The Centaur's secondary hull is much smaller, meaning a smaller warp core, meaning (presumably) less power to go around; never mind fewer auxiliary craft and fewer weapons systems. So, then, what is the point of the Centaur?

Front-line support.

To my mind, there can be only one reason why the Centaur is proportioned the way it is: to generate a very large warp bubble, capable of completely enveloping another, equally large or larger, starship.

To this end, I added a small superstructure to the bottom of the secondary hull, terminating aft with a large tractor beam projector. Ideally, this projector would be able to focus multiple beams simultaneously, allowing the Centaur to tow as many ships as could fit in its warp bubble. (Now seems like a good time to briefly discuss my approach to warp travel: I basically assume that the space within a warp bubble is motionless, with all of the movement occurring at the "skin" of the bubble. Therefore any and all matter within a warp bubble would be carried with the starship to its destination. This means that shuttlecraft, for example, don't need to actually land inside a shuttlebay before the warp drives engage--though they probably should, for safety reasons--they simply need to be very close to their mother ship.)

The powerful tractor beam and unusually larger warp bubble, coupled with the sturdy Excelsior-class components and its relatively high amount of firepower, would make the Centaur a very valuable support craft on the front lines: its duty is not to engage the enemy directly, but rather to make sure as many Federation ships survive each engagement as possible.

Redesigning the Excelsior

2019-01-29T04:14:00.000-06:00

Redesigning the Excelsior resulted in modeling not just one ship, but three.

Introducing the Excelsior-class U.S.S. Enterprise:

In-Universe Context

Registry	NCC-1701-B
Class	Excelsior-class Type-B
Type	Command cruiser
Active	2293 to 2329
Decks	26
Length	Approximately 581m
Capacity	1200 humanoids 3500 humanoids maximum limit
Max. Speed	Warp factor 9.2
Max. Cruising	Warp factor 7.4
Armament	Phasers (x12 phaser banks) Photon torpedoes (x6 launchers)

The third Starfleet vessel to bear the name Enterprise, the Enterprise B more than lived up to her storied legacy. Launched in late 2293 shortly after the Khitomer Accords ended hostilities between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, the new Enterprise--designed for combat--spent most of her service at the furthest frontiers of known space, venturing deep into the unknown. After four decades of service under five captains, the Enterprise ultimately disappeared without a trace in 2329, shortly after completing her last mission: escorting a Bajoran refugee flotilla to safe harbor after the Cardassian annexation of their homeworld.

In 2331 the Enterprise B was officially declared lost in action and presumed destroyed. The following year she was succeeded by a new, Ambassador-class Enterprise.

...Also introducing the Excelsior-class U.S.S. Avalon:

Capacity	800 humanoids 3000 humanoids maximum limit
Max. Speed	Warp factor 9.68
Max. Cruising	Warp factor 8
Armament	Phasers (x16 phaser banks) Photon torpedoes (x6 launchers)

Named for the mythical "Island of Apple Trees," the Avalon was launched in 2348 and spent much of her early patrolling the Federation's borders with during the bloody Klingon-Romulan War that ignited after the Khitomer Massacre in 2346. Despite the Federation's neutrality, the conflict frequently spilled into UFP space, and the Avalon participated in multiple combat engagements against both Klingon and Romulan warships.

By the Dominion War, the Avalon had successfully completed 6 multi-year deep space exploration missions, and established first contact with 40 new civilizations. During the Dominion War the Avalon was assigned to the Seventh Fleet, which saw some of the heaviest combat in the opening months of the war. She was one of only 14 ships to survive the disastrous Battle of Tyra, out of a fleet of 112.

...And finally, introducing the Excelsior-class Type-D U.S.S. Chiron:

Commentary

Building a model of an Excelsior is a very intimidating project: of all the classic starships designs, the Excelsior is among the most beloved. And for good reason: she is a gorgeous vessel, from every angle. But there are a few problems with the design, especially its scale. You can find an excellent and thorough write-up of all the issues over at Ex Astris Scientia if you're curious. When I construct a model, my #1 concern is keeping the interior and exterior scales consistent. The biggest problem I had to reconcile with the original Excelsior design (as usual) was the placement of the window rows and the decks they represent. The studio model is very problematic in this respect:

Excelsior-class study model in Star Trek: Generations.

The red-highlighted area represents the approximate size of the interior decks if we assume the window rows line-up properly. This results in an Excelsior that is far too big--a saucer four decks thick would result in an Excelsior larger than a Galaxy-class! Given that most Starfleet vessels with circular primary hulls are only two decks thick, and that the Excelsior's scaling relative to the Constitution-class Enterprise and MSD props reflect a saucer only two decks thick, I chose to dismiss the proximity of the windows on the studio model as an error. When I scale a model, I find it helpful to zero in on one or two specific features and extrapolate the rest of the model from there. For the Excelsior, I built my model around a saucer rim approximately two decks thick with enough space to accommodate the raised, third row of windows on the top of the primary hull (green-highlighted area on the above image).

To get the proportions to line-up better with the original design, I had to make the rim of the saucer slightly thicker, and add a bit of a slope going up to the "terraced" deck above. And while I'm talking about the saucer rim, the studio model features three horizontal lines around the saucer that are evenly spaced, but this is only possible because of the close proximity of the two outermost window rows. Because I fixed the spacing on my model, I could not evenly space these lines around the saucer: my solution, as you can see, was to widen the lines and have the top and bottom ones overlap with the window rows.

Scale-wise, my Excelsior-class model has an overall length of approximately 572m. This is perhaps a bit on the large size (that Ex Astris Scientia article, for example, estimates a most-likely length of only 467m) but I find it works well for a ship that bridges the gap between the relatively small vessels of the 23rd century and the relatively large vessels of the 24th century.

My attempt to build an Excelsior model began with the U.S.S. Avalon, the Excelsior-class Type-C, which I intended to represent the "default" Excelsior-class we see "guest-starring" in various TNG and DS9 episodes. Over the course of about a year, the project grew to include two additional Excelsior variants, and led directly to my Centaur and Helena projects, which both of which will be covered in separate posts. My primary goal with the Avalon was keep the overall proportions of the model as accurate as possible, while adjusting the various details to "fix" various issues I had with the original design.

From there, I removed some of my changes to create the Enterprise model (Excelsior-class Type-B, very appropriately), which adheres more closely to the studio model, and then made even more radical changes to create the Chiron model (Excelsior-class Type-D). In order to avoid explicitly "retconning" the original Excelsior design, I justified my changes with a simple headcanon: over the years, Starfleet adopted multiple sub-types of Excelsiors, most notably the Type-A, Type-B, Type-C and Type-D.

The Type-A is the initial model (see U.S.S. Excelsior NCC-2000).
The Type-B is a command variant, designed to accommodate more personnel and a much greater complement of secondary craft (see U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-B).
The Type-C is the most common Excelsior sub-type in the 24th century; a refit of the Type-A with modern technology, it features a ventral shuttlebay on the primary hull and a third impulse drive on the secondary hull (see the U.S.S. Avalon NCC-42024).
The Type-D is the most recent Excelsior variant, designed after Wolf 359 as the "ultimate update" to the Excelsior design. It is more durable and more heavily armed than the Type-C, and can accommodate both saucer separation and recombination.

Excelsior-class Type-D, one of the final variants of the Excelsior line.

As the version of the Excelsior seen in TNG, I imagined the Type-C as a relatively simple update or refit of the original design. As such, I made a few alterations as possible, resulting in only four major changes.

First, I changed the rear shuttlebay to a more conventional circular clam-shell design, similar to the Constitution-class (I could never understand how the shuttlebay doors were supposed to operate in the original design); I added a third impulse engine on the secondary hull, between the two aft torpedo launchers; I moved the second set of forward torpedo launchers from the upper part of the neck to just above the other set on the secondary hull; and I added a third shuttebay on the primary hull, between the bridge and main impulse engines, to allow for the Excelsior to operate secondary craft from the primary hull after an emergency saucer separation.

When I was a kid, I had this fantastic poster of the TOS Enterprise, cut-out to reveal all of the interior decks and mechanics. One detail that always fascinated me was a row of "explosive bolts" at the top of the neck--designed to suddenly, violently and permanently separate the saucer section from the rest of the ship. I preserved this idea in my conception of the Excelsior: the Type-A, Type-B and Type-C would all have similar explosives in the neck, designed to separate the primary and secondary hull, using the force of the blast to propel them in opposite directions.

Obviously this is an extreme and inelegant procedure, which would only ever occur in the most dire of situations. For the Type-C model, sauce separation would result in the total destruction of the neck component, but for the late 24-century Type-D variant, however, I imagined that the neck would consist of an independent module housing a complex docking apparatus more easily allow the two hulls to recombine after separation.

The U.S.S. Avalon's secondary hull after saucer separation.

Incorporating saucer separation provided me with a justification to imagine the secondary hull as an independent starship--further justifying the third impulse engine--but I found that keeping the top of the hull completely flat looked a bit bland. I therefore added a protruding section (2 decks) that would otherwise be hidden underneath the neck.

All of these changes are also present in the Type-D Chiron, along with a few others, but had to be removed for the Type-B.

The Type-B was designed to be more similar to the original studio model, which meant I had to undo those changes. Also, appropriately, the Type-B is designation for the Enterprise B, and at this point I finally thought my skills as a modeler had improved to the point where I could construct my own Enterprise. I tried to keep the Enterprise more faithful to the original studio model--which meant removing the third impulse engine, shifting two torpedoes back up into the neck, simplifying the hull paneling, and adding the various superstructures to the hull. In order to maintain my minimalist aesthetic, I refrained from modeling many of the "greebles" on the hull to present a smoother, simpler vessel.

The most problematic aspect of the Type-B is the pair of hull superstructures on either side of the saucer--what, exactly, are they? On the studio model they tend to glow red, indicating that they may be an additional set of impulse engines--but if that were the case, why design impulse engines to expel gas/waste/heat directly on top of the warp nacelles? Alternatively, the two superstrucutres are sometimes assumed to house an additional pair shuttlebays, a better explanation, but one that suffers from the same problem: the nacelles are in the way.

My solution was to make the shuttlebay doors relatively small, set on the outer ends of the superstructure, and angled outward, so that shuttlecraft could fly in or out w/out needing to navigate around the nacelles.

Moving on to the Type-D, which I designed as the "final evolution" of the venerable Excelsior-class. The Type-D is what Excelsiors built after Wolf 359 look like: same basic design as ever, but with a few modern twists.

Most obviously the Type-D has different nacelle struts, more in line with the aesthetics of other 24th century designs like the Sovereign-class and Nova-class. I tried to keep the back-swept struts simple in order to preserve the overall profile of the Excelsior--because why mess with perfection? Also, of course, I added all of the familiar TNG-era hull elements: phaser arrays instead of banks and visible escape pods.

The other changes to the Type-D are subtle, to the point where I doubt most of them are even noticeable. I smoothed a lot of the edges to better fit with my modeling style, and added a slight curve to the superstructure on the primary hull.

I also adjusted the top of the secondary hull to balance out the larger nacelle struts: the engineering pod has been moved forward slightly, and the square protrusion of hull at the back of the shuttlebay slightly elongated.

The new nacelle struts give the secondary hull a bit more of a smoother, organic flow, which I quite like. Speaking of which, I think that by the time the Type-D rolled out, the whole notion of using explosive bolts to separate two hulls would be a bit anachronistic. But at the same time, I don't want to keep the neck--so for the Type-D, I imagine the neck as a more-or-less independent module w/ its own docking systems, similar to the Galaxy-class. This would make saucer separation a bit of a clumsy affair (effectively resulting in abandoning the neck module), but because the neck module remains intact, it should be easier to recombine the two hulls post-separation.

One of the more appealing aspects of the Excelsior-class, to me, is the art-deco style "ribbing" along the neck, nacelles, and engineering pod. The negative space in the Excelsior's design does a great job at conveying a since of size and grandeur, and the ribbing furthers that by almost making the neck invisible, and "slimming" the nacelles.

For the escape pod hatches, I chose triangular lifeboats similar in size and shape to those found on the Sovereign-class, as it was easier to arrange them in a circular patter. They are slightly smaller than the square lifeboats found on the Galaxy-class, but I think the smaller hatches help add to the sense of scale--they make the Chiron feel a bit larger than it really is. The Excelsior design always felt very "big" and "intimidating" to me, and I wanted to preserve and elaborate on that feeling as much as my abilities would allow.

My Star Trek Modeling M.O.

2019-01-29T04:07:00.002-06:00

When I present my Star Trek models, both the original designs and my interpretations of classic designs, I'm often asked why I do some of the things I do. Well, here's my answer!

This may be heretical to some of my fellow fans, but I really don't care about Star Trek canon. What I do care about is consistency, and Star Trek is typically anything but.

When I build a model of a Star Trek starship, my goal is not to perfectly adhere to the original design of the studio or CGI models. Rather, my principal goal is to be as faithful as possible to the intent of the original design. Generally this means taking and maintaining the overall shape and profile of the original design, and altering (sometimes inventing) the details.

While modeling, I ask myself the following questions:

What is the historical context of this design? EG when was it built, and for what purpose?
What flaws with the design might lead to it serving a different purpose, or being replaced prematurely?
What feelings was the design meant to evoke in the audience?
(With a redesigned ship): what aspects of the original design are absolutely necessary? This is usually how I determine an appropriate scale.
(With a redesigned ship): what aspects of the original design are most problematic? This is how I determine the most radical changes.

The most common problem with classic starship designs is that the scale tends to be wildly inconsistent. Producers, especially in this CGI age, constantly tweak the size of a model in order to come up with something that looks "better" in-frame. Scriptwriters also often create story elements that require the size of a model increase or decrease (EG the B'Rel-class Klingon Bird of Prey needs to be able to be large enough for its cargo bay to accommodate two adult humpback whales). Canonical information derived from props (usually computer screens) and data books is often contradictory. Visual details, like window rows, are often placed haphazardly (too near or too far apart); sometimes the design will "cheat" by using skylights to give a single deck two rows of windows on the hull, creating the illusion of additional decks. Ex Astris Scientia is an excellent resource for cataloging all of the many scale problems and inconsistencies of Star Trek starships. When I re-imagine an classic design, my goal is to fix those issues and create a models that are wholly consistent with each other. To that end, I use the following standards (based off of the dimensions established by Andrew Probert and Rick Sternbach):

Average deck height is 2.5m with 0.5m between each deck.
Average deck height of large TNG-era craft is 3.0m with 0.5m between each deck.
Average (small) window is a circle 0.65m in diameter.
The top edge of a window is no lower than ~0.58m below the deck ceiling.
The top edge of a window on a large TNG-era craft is no lower than ~1.08m below the deck ceiling.
A photon torpedo's dimensions are approximately 3m by 1m by 0.5m, and each torpedo port should be able to accommodate these dimensions.
A turbolift shaft is approximately 2m in diameter.

And while I typically less careful when modeling interior components, I do scale everything around my uniform silhouettes to create an accurate sense of scale, which are sized to reflect the current average heights of a human male and human female (even though you may notice my female silhouette is vulcan)--approximately 1.71m (5.6ft imperial) and 1.59m (5.2ft imperial), respectively.

(Please note that while I've always aimed for consistency, I experimented a fair bit, and these standards only finalized with the 2nd version of my Excelsior-class Type-C model. IE older models may not necessarily meet all of my criteria after deck heights.)

You may notice that while I typically try to model most of the necessary external hull components (torpedo ports, phasers, impulse engines, warp coils, bussard collectors and so on) sometimes the RCS thrusters or escape pods and often the transporter emitters are absent. Honestly, sometimes I just get tired of a model and want to move on. Er, what I mean to say is that all of those components still exist, they just aren't modeled because they're hidden underneath hull panels.

On In-Universe Context

When I build a model, it's helpful for me to consider the in-universe context. My overall approach to continuity (or "canon") is too complex to explore here, but in general I view Star Trek media as historical fiction rather than historical fact--in other words, while the larger events are likely "true" in the continuity, the details are not necessarily true. This approach is handy because it gives me the wiggle-room to "quibble over the details," accepting most of what's seen on-screen into my headcanon, but abandoning aspects that I do not like or which cannot be coherently reconciled with the rest of the continuity.

For practical purposes here, I place my models within the "prime universe" continuity, including the expanded "LitVerse" continuity--which is where I place the "present day" of the setting. I do not include the 2009 reboot continuity or the Discovery continuity, though I may borrow certain elements in my imaginings.

On Style:

The other most-frequent question I receive is, thankfully, much easier to answer: what's up with my style? My earliest models don't have a discernible style because they were my earliest models, and I was learning how to model as I built them. My skills have improved, but I am still very much an amateur. I do not have the skills or the patience for a realistic modeling skills, nor am I sufficiently familiar with the software needed to render realistic models appropriately. Further, many other people, far more skilled than I, are already making very realistic models.

So I've attempted to establish my own, unique modeling style. I consider it a stylized/minimalist style, but others have compared it to animation (which I cannot deny is is an influence, hence the URL).

This aesthetic has several advantages: it makes my models more uniquely mine; it requires less detail, meaning I can produce models more quickly (and I am therefore less likely to get bored with a model and abandon it); it uses less geometry, making it easier to create, modify or view on less-powerful computers.

And on a final note:

If you like my work and would like to show your support, you can buy me a coffee at Ko-Fi! I'm sorry, but I do not have a Patreon account.
All of my models are created using Google SkectchUp and are freely available for download at the 3D Warehouse.
If you don't have SketchUp, you can download the free 3D Viewer. You can also use the web viewer at the 3D Warehouse (select 3D view) but it is very limited and often produces errors; alternatively the .skp files should be usable w/ other modeling programs, and relatively easy to convert to other formats.
Anyone may use and/or modify my models for their own projects only if they credit me (link to either this blog or my 3D warehouse page). I'd also appreciate an email/message/comment, just so I can see what you're doing! I do, after all is said and done, love starships.

Trails / Kiseki OST Tracklists (Updated)

2017-01-31T20:56:00.000-06:00

A while ago I posted some translated/localized tracklists for the Trails in the Sky and Cold Steel OSTs. Well, I'm back, and since I can't edit the title of the old thread, I'm making a new one. I now have translated tracklists for every OST in the series, sans the EVO ports.

I've currently translated the Soundtracks of Trails in the Sky, Trails in the Sky SC, Trails in the Sky the 3rd, Trails of Zero, Trails of Blue, Trails of Cold Steel and Trails of Cold Steel II into English. Sometimes this involved translating Japanese-to-English; just as often it meant translating Engrish-to-English. I've included links to the Amazon.com and Amazon.co.jp listings for each soundtrack; if you'd like to see the original Japanese track titles, that's where you can find them.

I have tried to make these translations as consistent as possible with XSEED's phenomenal translation. If you spot any errors (mistranslations or misromanizations) please let me know! For the case of the tragically unreleased Zero and Ao, I've romanized the "original" katakana nouns without changing them rather than try to guess at how they ought to be romanized. Some translations are fairly literal, others are... not. If you know how to render something like 空の謎は軌跡でポン！without it sounding really silly, please, lemme know.

I will of course be revising these lists in the future to maintain parity with XSEED's localisations as-they-appear (The 3rd is coming when!?!?) as well as to add tracklists for subsequent games: bring on Cold Steel III!

Macross Delta Scramble Translation Guide: Miscellany

2016-11-29T16:47:00.000-06:00

MISCELLANY

The Miscellany section is, well, a dumping ground for miscellaneous content that, while important enough to justify inclusion in the guide, is not important enough to necessitate its own unique section. Want to see the FAQ part of the FAQ/Guide? This is where you'll find it. Want to see what fine people have contributed to the construction of this guide? This is where you'll find them. Want to find my email address so you can forward me your questions/comments/concerns? Again: right here.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will this game ever be localized in English and released outside of Japan?

No. There is absolutely zero possibility of this or any other Macross game ever being localized.

Is this game import-friendly?
Yes and no. The game itself is very easy to play and many of the menu and UI elements contain English text... however it is on the PlayStation Vita, a console that is not import-friendly at all. If you want to play the game as-is, you're good to go... but if you want to get any of the DLC, you'll need to play on a Japanese PSN account—which means you'll either have to constantly reformat and switch accounts on your memory card, or purchase a second memory card for use exclusively with Japanese games.

I want to buy this game! Where should I import it from?

You have many options! AmiAmi and Play-Asia are two of the biggest import stores out there, but I'd recommend checking out Amazon.co.jp first. Amazon frequently discounts their games quite a bit, and many of their products qualify for international shipping. I bought Delta Scramble from Amazon.co.jp myself a few weeks after release... for approximately 45% off the MSRP.

Is this game compatible with the PlayStation TV / PSTV?

Yes.

I'm playing the game on a non-Japanese PSN account. Can I still update?

Yes, you can! Simply tap the update icon on the game page from the Vita's UI, and it will download no matter what region your PSN account is tied to. Please remember to update as soon as possible because the big 1.02 patch is not compatible with older save-data, and you'll have to start over.

Why should I update the game?

The 1.01 update will grant you a special one-time bonus of 100,000 credits; the 1.02 update will add in additional missions covering the remainder of the Macross Delta anime series as well as Extra missions from other Macross series, including Super-Dimensional Fortress Macross, Macross Seven and Macross Frontier.

Why shouldn't I update the game?

I dunno, man.

I just patched my game to 1.02, and now the game is making me start over?

Save-data from version 1.00 and 1.01 is not compatible with the 1.02 patch, so you will have to start all over again.

Is this game similar to the PSP Macross games?

Yes. The mechanics are virtually the same.

Can I play the DLC on a non-Japanese PSN account?

No, you will be able to download the updates but not the DLC. You'll need a Japanese PSN account for that.

Can you help me set up a Japanese PSN account?

No. Just Google it, there are many walkthroughs out there and it really isn't very difficult.

Can you help me set up an Amazon.co.jp account?

No. It's really very easy. When you do set up an account, you'll have to provide a Japanese address (just write in something random)... but once you've made an account you can add an international address and then delete the Japanese address.

I found an aircraft/pilot/support character that isn't in your guide, what should I do?

Email me, please. Mwulf.0079@gmail.com

How do I unlock a specific aircraft/pilot/supporter?

Playing the game thoroughly should unlock everything. If an aircraft/pilot/supporter is not included in this guide, it means one of two things: it is either not included in the game, or I have yet to include that information in the guide. Remember, this is a work-in-progress.

Why aren't all of your translations 100% accurate?

Two reasons. First and foremost, don't expect perfection—I'm far from fluent. Actually, my Japanese kind of sucks. Second, in many cases I avoid direct translations in order to best convey information as directly and concisely as possible. For translation guides such as this, clarity is paramount.

UPDATE LOG

Version 0.01: basic guide constructed and formatted.

Version 0.50: Did you know that OpenOffice can crash so hard it will uninstall itself from your PC? So, yeah, I've been delayed. Nonetheless the first version of this guide is ready to be made public. There's still a lot missing, but the most important (in my judgment) information is in—including photo-translations of all the menus and full data on pilots, support characters and all support set bonuses.

Version 0.65: reorganized and added support set bonuses; filled in all of the Chaos, Windermere and Extra missions; added basic info on DLC and patches; added mission clear requirements for all shop items.

Version 0.7: added in lots (nearly all) of mission and aircraft data.

Version 0.71: added in three missing photo-translations (hangar menus).

CREDITS and ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Macross Delta Scramble Translation Guide: Secrets and Extras

2016-11-29T16:46:00.001-06:00

SECRETS and EXTRAS

Macross Delta Scramble...?

TUNING LIMITERS

As you play through Macross Delta Scramble, you will steadily unlock special Tuning Limit items. These items allow you greater freedom to manipulate the stats of your aircraft. Each aircraft has three different tuning limiters for you to unlock (and then purchase from the shop). The kanji for each of the three limiters is identical, but you can tell which aircraft they belong to because they are listed directly below that aircraft in the shop menu, indented slightly to the right. The three different kinds of tuning limiters are as follows:

Tuning Limiter
Effect

Detune Limit Release
デチューン解除
Allows detuning of all aircraft and weapon stats—remove TP from any stat to add to the overall TP pool.

Tune Limit Upgrade
チューン限界向上
Increases the amount of TP that can be invested into all aircraft and weapon stats.

Tune Limit Release
チューン限界解除
Allows maximum amount of TP to be invested into all aircraft and weapon stats.

Note that once you obtain the Tune Limit Release, you can completely max out every stat on an aircraft, but doing so will require an enormous amount of TP. You are better off not purchasing Tune Limit Release items (or possibly Limit Upgrades as well) for aircraft you do not intend to invest much TP in.

Selecting multiple support characters can trigger support set bonuses, which confer multiple combat bonuses. See the Characters section for details.

Macross Delta Scramble Translation Guide: Characters and Story

Macross Delta Scramble Translation Guide: Menu Translations

2016-11-29T16:37:00.003-06:00

MAIN/TOP MENU

Please note that these photo-translations are modified/altered screenshots of the game: though many UI elements and menus contain English text, there is no in-game option to make everything display in English (if there were such an option, I'd have no cause to make this guide).

CUSTOMIZING YOUR PLAYER CHARACTERS

When you first go into the Mission Menu, you will be given the option to customize the two Chaos PMC pilots—original to the game—and once you unlock the Windermere missions later, you will similarly be able to customize them. You can customize their name (first line) and their nickname/callsign (second line). These menus are fairly easy to navigate, but I thought I'd reproduce them here just in case anyone has trouble with them.

You can either leave the names as they are (written in katakana) or write in your own names. The two Chaos PMC characters (pictured above) are named Hans Schwalm (left) and Fan Vernalotte (right); the two Windermere Kingdom characters are named Victor Harmstadt and Dominic Udetto (not pictured). One issue you may have is that, since you are playing a Japanese game, text entry is configured for Japanese language—so you may be a bit apprehensive when the keyboard pops up, but don't worry, it's much less confusing than it may seem.

Essentially, what you need to do is input every character in one at a time and use the predictive text bar to select the proper character. For example, if you press the “A” key on the keyboard you'll want to use the predictive text bar to manually select either “a” or “A.” Otherwise the keyboard will assume you're typing phonetically in Japanese and will display hiragana, katakana or kanji characters instead.

Note: if you do not see the desired character in the predictive text bar, press the down-arrow (on the far right end) to see the full list of predicted characters. Once you've selected a few English characters, the keyboard will “learn” and start displaying English characters first.

MISSION MENUS:

Before you can access any of the Chaos PMC or Windermere missions, you'll first need to complete the first three tutorial missions in the the Extra Missions category. Once the first three tutorial missions are complete, you'll be able to start playing Chaos PMC missions; and once you've cleared the first two Chaos missions, you'll be able to access the Windermere Kingdom missions. Note that for both Chaos and Windermere factions you'll have two customizable player characters to use (see previous subsection for details on how to customize them) although eventually you'll be able to use characters from the various Macross animations.

Once you select a faction, you will see all of the available missions for that faction. Note that you can freely switch between the Windermere, Chaos and Extra mission screens using the L and R buttons.

The mission screens should look very familiar to you if you've played any of Artdink's prior games, as they have changed very little over the decades(!). To see more information on specific missions, please refer to the Missions section of this guide.

Once you've selected a mission, you will be redirected to the hangar menu, which can also be accessed from the main menu. Please refer to the Hangar Menus subsection for details.

Once you've cleared a mission you'll see the mission results screen, which should also be very familiar.

The maximum rank you can earn for a mission is SS, so please do not stress out trying to earn SSS-ranks! Note that the battle score is determined by how many enemies you destroy whereas the technical score is determined by various factors, including but not limited to your accuracy, remaining health, SP usage, and clear time.

After seeing your score, you'll go to the next page of the Results screen which details your various rewards for completing the mission.

Here you'll see how much experience, money and tuning points you've earned for the mission. And if your characters happen to earn enough experience to level up, you'll see one more window pop up before you're returned to the mission select menu.

Here you'll see your former level, your new level, as well as your old stats and new stats.

HANGAR MENU:

The hangar menu is accessed automatically once you begin a mission. Here you will select your player character and ally character, your aircraft, and any support characters. You can select up to five support characters at once—one primary and four secondary. The primary support character will determine the Special Attack you'll be able to use in-combat; the secondary support characters apply minor upgrades to the six pilot stats, and if you select certain support characters you can get set bonuses which confer additional benefits. Please see the Support Set Bonuses subsection of the Characters section for details.

The hangar menu is divided in two: on the left side of the screen are slots for pilots (green) and supporters (purple). Note that the larger slot in the support box is for the primary support character, who determines your support skill, while the four smaller slots determine your support set bonuses (if applicable). The right side displays the details of whichever character or aircraft currently selected.

Pressing the square button over an aircraft will allow you to spend TP to tune (read: upgrade) various stats on that aircraft, or to purchase additional TP. Pressing square over a character will show you that characters stats (pictured above). The six stats are are placed on a graph to give you a better idea of that characters overall abilities. Those stats are (in clockwise order starting from the top):

Japanese	English	Color
射撃	Ranged Combat	Green
格闘	Melee Combat	Red
機動	Maneuverability	Yellow
防御	Defense	Gray
集中	Focus	Purple
魂	Spiritia	Blue

The right side of the screen displays the aircraft stats. Press square to access and adjust these stats using TP. You can also adjust the color scheme for your aircraft (where applicable) as well as view and modify the stats for the selected aircraft's various weapons.

Note that unlike prior Artdink games, you cannot modify the individual stats of each weapon: instead, you invest TP into a general power stat that, in turn, affects each individual stat. Cycle between the aircraft and weapon stat screens using the R and L buttons.

The yellow bar indicates the general “weapon power” stat. Increasing or decreasing it will effect all other stats. Note that not every weapon will have stats in every category—for example: a gunpod cannot multi-lock, and therefore lacks the multi-lock stat.

Note that you can establish three different support units. Only one unit can be active at a time, but by setting up additional units you can more easily cycle between your favorites as necessary.

SHOP MENU:

To access new pilots, support characters, aircraft and optional equipment (like Armored Packs) in Macross Delta Scramble, you first need to unlock them by clearing the requisite missions (see the Missions section for details); once unlocked, you must then spend credits to purchase them from the shop.

There are four categories to choose from: pilots, support, aircraft and. Furthermore, you can filter items by faction using the R and L buttons. The total credits you have to spend are displayed in the bottom right corner of the menu. Note that if you update the game, you will receive a special one-time bonus of 100,000 credits.

OPTIONS MENU:

Unlike many other games, the controls in Macross Delta Scramble and fully customizable! Wonderful, ain't it? You can access the options menu either from the main menu, or in-game by pressing the Start button.

You have three options to choose from. The first two will allow you to change various settings (volume and controls) while the third simply shows you Artdink's credits.

This is the Volume screen:

Macross Delta Scramble Translation Guide: Introduction

2016-11-29T16:19:00.002-06:00

INTRODUCTION

Macross Delta Scramble is the latest Macross flight/action combat developed by Studio d'Artdink to tie in with the 2016 anime series Macross Delta. The base game includes missions based on the first half of the Delta anime (as well as extra missions), and downloadable updates also provide missions based on the latter half of the Delta anime as well as other Macross series (SDF, Plus, Zero, Seven, Frontier, etc.). It is my hope that this translation guide help Macross' small, but dedicated Western fanbase better appreciate that fine legacy by playing—and understanding—this fantastic game.

As per my usual mantra: I have attempted to assemble all of the information contained herein in as logical, concise and organized a manner as possible. This guide is currently (and perpetually) a work-in-progress, and as such cannot be expected to be a fully complete, infallible resource. Over time, I shall endeavor to help this document evolve into an ever-bigger, ever-better, ever more useful guide. Regardless of its current state, I hope you'll find this guide to be a valuable resource as you play the game.

Please bear in mind that this guide is written with the assumption that the reader has at least a passing familiarity with the conventions and vocabulary of both gaming as well as the Macross franchise.

As you navigate this guide, you will notice many screenshots of the game. In an attempt to make the various menu translations easier to follow, I have taken the liberty of editing screenshots of the game to replace the Japanese text with English text. It is my hope that these photo-translations will make the translation segments of the guide more accessible, thereby increasing the efficiency and utility of this guide as a reference tool.

Current FAQ/Guide Status:

The guide is still incomplete, but all of the most important information is complete. 100% of photo-translations are in! 100% of pilot and character information is in! 100% of support set information is in! The rest will be added in due time.

GAME INFORMATION

Macross Delta Scramble is a fast-paced action-combat game with a great deal of customization. It was developed by the hugely talented and experienced Studio Artdink, who have been responsible for a number of fantastic Macross and Gundam games published on the Playstation Portable, Playstation Vita and Playstation 3 gaming consoles over the past decade, as well as several other licensed games that have been localized in English including Dragonball Battle of Z and Sword Art Online: Lost Song. This title marks Artdink's second mech game on the Playstation Vita (after Gundam Seed: Battle Destiny) and their first Macross game since the phenomenal Macross 30: Voices Across the Galaxy (PS3) in 2013.
Macross Delta Scramble focuses primarily on the events of the first half (approximately 12 episodes) of the Macross Delta anime series. The player creates two custom characters for each side in the conflict (one male, one female) to participate in the conflict, though you can also play as “canon” pilots later in the game once they have been unlocked. The base game contains a fair amount of content, which is nearly doubled through DLC updates. The first DLC is free and covers the events of the latter half of the Macross Delta anime series, while the last DLC contains missions based on other Macross properties (Super-Dimensional Fortress Macross, Macross Seven, Macross Frontier and so on).

Release Date	October 20, 2016 (Japan)
Platform	Sony Playstation Vita
Price	¥6,558
Rating	CERO B*
Publisher	Namco Bandai Games
Developer	Studio Artdink

Note: CERO is the Computer Entertainment Rating Organization, which rates electronic games in Japan using the following scale:

CERO A	Suitable for all ages.
CERO B	Suitable for ages 12 and up.
CERO C	Suitable for ages 15 and up.
CERO D	Suitable for ages 17 and up.
CERO Z	Not for children under 18.

CONTROLS

There are three preset control schemes for Macross 30. The first is based on the controls used in Artdink's earlier Macross titles on the Sony PSP; the second is based on third-person shooter controls; and the third is based around the camera-aiming mechanic. You can switch between these three control schemes at any time through the System or Options menus.

When using the Options menu, you will notice that there are two types of flight controls available. Normal controls are, unsurprisingly, the default. Real controls allow you to fly your aircraft like a fighter in an Ace Combat game—rolling with horizontal analog stick movement—which gives you greater control over your flight path. Unfortunately, selecting Real flight controls also introduces multiple obtrusive HUD elements that are very distracting, so I do not recommend it.

Please keep in mind that Macross 30, like most Japanese games, does not invert the default confirm/cancel keys. This means that the circle button is (correctly) linked to the "confirm" command, and the cross button to the "cancel" command. Saving and loading the game, however, uses the same command buttons as the PS3 hardware's region. This means that gamers playing on European and American consoles should be aware that the confirm/cancel buttons will "switch" on them while going through the saving process.

	Default Controls (press square to reset)
Camera	Right Analog Stick
Movement	Left Analog Stick
Transform (Fighter)	D-Pad Up
Transform (GERWALK)	D-Pad Left
Transform (Battroid)	D-Pad Down
Primary/Main Weapon	R
Secondary/Sub Weapon	Circle
Cycle Sub Weapons	Touchscreen or D-Pad Right
Melee	Triangle
Boost	Cross
Dash	Square
Target Lock On/Off	Touchscreen
Cycle Targets	Right Analog Stick (only when Target Lock is on)
Guard	L
Center Camera	L
In-Game Menu	Start
Issue Orders	Touchscreen

While in GERWALK mode, you will need to double-tap in the Boost button (cross) in order to descend.

As is the case with other mech combat games from Artdink, you have an SP meter that gradually fills as you take and receive damage; this meter can be depleted to use special moves and attacks.

Note that you can freely customize every control in the game (see the options menu photo-translation for details) and can always reset controls to their default settings by pressing the square button in the control customization menu.

Action	SP Cost	Command
AMS Anti-Missile System	0	Guard + Primary Weapon
Reload Weapon	0	Primary Weapon (double-tap)
Activate Support Skill	1	Dash + Boost or Touchscreen
Charged Ranged Attack	1	Guard + Secondary Weapon
Charged Melee Attack	1	Guard + Melee Attack
Charged Boost	1	Guard + Boost
Activate Support Skill	2	Triangle + Circle
Special Attack	2	Circle + Cross

Note that I gave the function-name of SP actions instead of the buttons to better accommodate custom control schemes.

GAMEPLAY TIPS

Macross Delta Scramble should be very familiar to anyone who has played any of Artdink's prior mech combat games (especially those on the PSP or PSV). The mechanics in Delta Scramble are largely unchanged from their prior games, though there are a few additions (chiefly that you can now select multiple support characters who can form link bonuses) and, sadly for any M30 fans out there (which should be every one of us) a few ommissions (no more RPG elements, simplified controls and combat mechanics, etc.). If you're already familiar with Artdink's games, you can safely ignore this section. If, however, you are new to Artdink's Macross games, I'd like to use this section to point out some tips to help make your time with Delta Scramble a little bit easier and a little less confusing.

General Tips

Don't forget that, like most Japanese games, the default confirm/cancel commands are opposite the default confirm/cancel commands in Western games: circle is confirm and cross is cancel. Try not to forget it, or you're in for a world of minor inconvenience and annoyance.
Remember to visit the store regularly! As you play through missions, you will earn rewards—new chacters, new aircraft, new equipment packs—but you will NOT be able to use them until you purchase them from the shop (accessed only from the main menu).
Don't stress out about SS-Ranks! As you play through the game you'll be able to tune your aircraft's weapons and base stats, as well as obtain optional equipment (like Armored Packs) and other aircraft, so it's much easier to hold off on those SS-Ranks until post-game when you can bring much more powerful aircraft to bear.
If possible, never take two of the same model aircraft together on the same mission! Both your aircraft and your partner's aircraft will earn tuning points, so assign an aircraft you don't want to play with personally to your partner to help grind TP.

Combat Tips

Your primary weapon (usually gunpod) can dish out a great deal of damage, but (especially prior to tuning) is not very accurate. To increase your accuracy, try staying in either Battroid or GERWALK mode and get as close as possible to your target by dashing.
Alternatively, while airborne, you can increase your accuracy by switching to GERWALK mode once you're close to your target and hovering while you unload all of your ammo. In general, Fighter mode has the least accurate guns as they have the narrowest firing arc.
Missiles have two basic firing modes: all-at-once (hold down the Sub Weapon button to lock-on multiple missiles at once, and release it to fire) and one-at-a-time. Firing missiles one-at-a-time is best for attacking single enemies as you have a better chance of scoring hits, while all-at-once is best for attacking groups of enemies and enemies at long range (where their capacity to maneuver away is diminished).
While in Fighter mode, dashing causes your aircraft to roll to in the direction you hold the analog stick. This is very useful for breaking, as well as avoiding enemy weapons fire. Also keep in mind that for situations where you cannot avoid incoming fire, you can use your AMS (Anti-Missile System) to shoot down incoming missiles (Guard + Main Weapon).
Different weapons have different firing arcs. A gunpod can typically only fire in a very narrow cone directly in front of the aircraft, but the head-mounted laser cannons (on most vehicles) have a wider arc and can rotate 180 degrees backwards, making them very effective against highly mobile enemies.

Tuning Tips

Though you have the option of purchasing tuning points (100TP for 500 credits), I would strongly recommend against doing so. I think it's important to get a good feel for an aircraft before deciding which stats and/or weapons you want to upgrade, as well as to get an appreciation for an aircraft's base stats.
Use your AI partner to grind TP for aircraft you don't like. This is especially useful for optional equipment that requires a massive amount of TP.
Your primary weapon (usually a gunpod) is extremely effective in all thre transformation modes and at both close and long range, which makes it absolutely essential to your survivability during missions. I would, therefore, recommend tuning the primary weapon(s) before anything else. Remember: a strong offense is better than a strong defense.
Every aircraft can only be tuned so much. However, as you play through the game you will unlock special Limiter Release items in the shop. Each aircraft has three different limiters: a Detune Limit Release; a Tune Limit Upgrade; and a Tune Limit Release. The Detune Limit Release allows you to remove base TP from an aircraft. If you want more TP to spend on one stat but don't want to grind, it's handy to transfer TP from a stat you don't care about. Tune Limit Upgrades increase the maximum amount of TP you can invest in any one stat, and the final Tune Limit Release will allow you to tune every stat on your aircraft to the absoute maximum. See the Tuning Limiters subsection of the Secrets and Extras section of this guide for details.
When you apply tuning points, you extend a green bar marking the increased stats. Eventually this bar will turn red. When you reach the “red threshold,” each additional upgrade will cost more TP. Red tuning is called “over-tuning,” and should not be done until after you have fully tuned all of the aircraft and weapon stats to their maximum yellow value unless you are specifically setting out to make a specialized build.
Most aircraft have multiple weapons. Generally speaking, it's better to choose whichever primary weapon suits your play style best, and only tune that weapon—at least until you have TP to spare.
When upgrading weapons, make sure to evenly spread out TP to cover speed as well as accuracy in order to maximize the chances of your hits landing. (The faster a projectile moves, the less time an enemy has to move out of the way).

Is Dragon Quest really that unpopular outside of Japan?

2015-07-04T11:28:00.009-05:00

Originally posted July, 2015. It's that lovely time again: a new Dragon Quest game is coming, and Square-Enix is making asinine comments about the viability of the franchise overseas. "We're thinking about it," Horii says again: meaning, of course, that Square-Enix has zero plans to localize any Dragon Quest titles outside of Japan.

Some fans pin their hopes on the upcoming Dragon Quest spin-off, Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below. Its localization, they cry, is possibly indicative of changing attitudes over at Square-Enix, and positive sales may encourage further localization of the venerable RPG franchise.

These desperate hopes ignore the fact that the new Dragon Quest Heroes game is more a Musou game than a Dragon Quest game, and that EVERY Musou game (no matter how niche) has been localized overseas for the past decade or so. Even the really bad ones.)

While these hopes may be misguided, they DO speak to an increasingly common assumption among Western fans of Dragon Quest--that these wonderful games, despite their profound popularity in Japan, simply aren't very popular overseas. If there was a market for Dragon Quest outside of Japan, surely Square-Enix would work tirelessly to meet that demand. That is, after all, how a free market is supposed to function.

But is this assumption accurate, or misguided? Keep in mind that for all of its ubiquity in the industry, Square-Enix has a history of making rather harsh judgments based on outlandishly overoptimistic expectations. To ascertain the validity of this common assumption, we must determine two things:

1. How well does Dragon Quest sell outside of Japan?
2. How much does a game need to sell to be considered a success?

Obviously, there are serious problems with both points. For the first, accurate sales data is something of a White Whale in the games industry; and the second is mostly a qualitative point, and thus dependent more on subjective variables than objective ones.

Nonetheless, I believe it is possible to test the hypothesis that "Dragon Quest games sell poorly outside of Japan" even with our limited means--and what's more, I believe it vital and necessary to do so in order to better understand just what is wrong with the Dragon Quest franchise, and who is to blame. Is Square-Enix at fault for failing to appreciate its Western audiences, or are we at fault for being too paltry a crowd to be worth appeasing?

Well, as I stated earlier, accurate sales figures for games are... not really a thing that exists (aside from the few rare instances where developers or publishers divulge such details of their own volition). The most popular website for games industry sales-tracking is undoubtedly the notorious VGChartz, which is notorious both for the unceasing ammunition it provides fanboys of all flags, as well as for conjuring hilariously inaccurate figures from the ether. But, unfortunately, VGChartz is the only source we have to go on.

I have taken the sales data from every Dragon Quest game and spin-off released overseas since the year 2000 and compiled it into a simple table. While I must again caution against placing too much trust into the sales figures, they should be sufficient to determine a rough idea of each games' overseas sales.

Year	Platform	Game Title	NA Sales	EU Sales	Total Overseas Sales
2000	PS1	Dragon Quest VII	200,000	140,000	360,000
2004	PS2	Dragon Quest VIII	650,000	750,000	1,600,000
2005	NDS	Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime	120,000	N/A	130,000
2006	NDS	Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker	220,000	20,000	260,000
2007	NDS	Dragon Quest IV	300,000	20,000	350,000
2007	WII	Dragon Quest Swords	180,000	10,000	210,000
2008	NDS	Dragon Quest V	160,000	20,000	200,000
2009	NDS	Dragon Quest IX	620,000	670,000	1,430,000
2010	NDS	Dragon Quest VI	200,000	110,000	340,000
2010	NDS	Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2	80,000	60,000	160,000

*Note: I've color-coded the titles: Red is for original main-series Dragon Quest games, Blue is for remakes, and Green is for spin-off titles.

As we might expect, the main entries in the series tend to sell much better than the spin-off games or remakes. And the last two main-series games to be released overseas both saw sales greater than one million--a staggering accomplishment by any metric. Of course, it's also worth noting that the two worst-selling games listed (Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime and Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2) both have sales figures greater than 100,000.

Perhaps the most important games to look at are the three remakes (of IV, V and VI) on the Nintendo DS--which sold an average of around 300,000 copies.

And, recently, Square-Enix has started porting many of their older games to Android and iOS. There is no solid sales data available for these titles, but we can make certain extrapolations based on user-reviews. In general, fewer than 10% of consumers are likely to review a product--meaning we can determine a (very rough) approximation of a given game's total sales by multiplying the total number of reviews by a factor of 10. For the purposes of this article, let's only examine the seven Dragon Quest ports currently available for Android devices via the Google Play Store.

Game Title	User Reviews	Estimated Sales
Dragon Quest I	6,400	60,000
Dragon Quest II	1,600	16,000
Dragon Quest III	924	9,000
Dragon Quest IV	1,000	10,000
Dragon Quest V	600	6,000
Dragon Quest VI	600	6,000
Dragon Quest VIII	5,200	50,000

These figures may not seem to compare well to the sales of Dragon Quest games on dedicated gaming platforms, but it's worth keeping in mind that the mobile market is a very different beast, and that Square-Enix prices their games much higher than the vast majority of their competition. It's also worth noting that these ports suffer a number of major problems, such as the forced-portrait perspective that makes them unsuitable for play on a tablet, as well as missing text (IV) and missing voice acting (VIII). To see these mobile sales in a better context, let's similarly estimate the sales of other Square-Enix titles via the Play Store:

Game Title	User Reviews	Estimated Sales
Final Fantasy	5,600	56,000
Final Fantasy II	1,900	19,000
Final Fantasy III	20,500	200,000
Final Fantasy IV	18,200	180,000
Final Fantasy IV: TAY	5,100	50,000
Final Fantasy V	13,400	130,000
Final Fantasy VI	18,500	180,000
Final Fantasy Dimensions	7,000	70,000
Final Fantasy Tactics	1,700	17,000
Chrono Trigger	7,800	78,000
Secret of Mana	3,800	38,000
Chaos Rings	6,700	67,000
Chaos Rings II	4,700	47,000
Chaos Rings III	1,300	13,000

While it might be tempting to compare these two sets of numbers and say that Dragon Quest games simply don't sell well in the mobile market compared to other Square-Enix properties, there are a few very important things to keep in mind:

The Dragon Quest ports are almost all newer than most of the other Square-Enix games in the Play Store.
Despite selling relatively less than their counterparts in the Play Store, and selling MUCH less than their counterparts on dedicated gaming platforms, Square-Enix has localized 100% of their mobile ports of Dragon Quest.

If these sales are sufficient to justify Square-Enix' investment in their localization, one can only wonder (with bitter, bitter incredulity) why the consistently higher sales the Dragon Quest series sees on dedicated platforms are insufficient. And with the rising prevalence of digital-distribution across all platforms these days, physical production is no longer a necessity--and the costs associated with production and distribution, therefore, are no longer a valid excuse.

Even assuming a (very) large margin-of-error with these figures, it's safe to say that the Dragon Quest games routinely sell at least 150,000 copies (on consoles) outside of Japan--and, more often than not, will sell much more.

Now that we have determined how much Dragon Quest games sell overseas, it's time to figure out--in greater detail--what kind of totals might constitute a success.

Unfortunately this is a very murky area, but I believe we can find some information of meaning and value by examining a similar game: The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. Like Dragon Quest, Trails in the Sky is very much a traditional JRPG game, and like Dragon Quest, it has an extremely dense script that requires a great deal of work to adequately translate from Japanese due to the convoluted NPC storylines, quirky humor, and frequent references and call-backs.

XSEED Games released Trails in the Sky on Steam during the middle of the summer of 2014. The game made headlines a year later after it exceeded 100,000 owners on Steam. (Note that ownership statistics do not necessarily reflect sales). XSEED's Thomas Lipschultz later stated that "If we ever reach a point where 100k sales isn't a success, I think we'll collapse under our own massiveness."

It is important to note that developers/publishers reap a much greater portion of the profits from digital sales on Steam than physical retail sales, while at the same time avoiding the costly processes of production, distribution and licensing.

According to Larian's Swen Vincke, the typical digital distributor will take 30% of a game's sale, while the remaining 70% goes to the developer (or publisher); for physical games, there are many more people who get a cut of each game's sale--roughly

The breakdowns look something like this:

	Physical Game	Digital Game
Taxes	20.0%	20.0%
Retail distribution	25.0%	0.0%
Misc. Publisher Costs	12.5%	0.0%
Production Costs	4.0%	0.0%
Digital Platform Fees	0.0%	25.0%
Net revenue	38.5%	55.0%

Therefore we can determine that if Trails in the Sky sold 100,000 copies at its initial price (approximately $20 USD), it would generate approximately $1.1 million; whereas a Dragon Quest priced at $40 selling the same amount (100,000 being, as you will remember, a very, very low estimation for potential sales) would generate approximately $1.54 million.

Of course, games do not always sell at their initial MSRP, but I would argue that the incredibly low estimates for potential sales of this theoretical, future Dragon Quest adequately account for any deviations in price.

Now: how does 100,000 sales compare to other Japanese-style Roleplaying Games on Steam? Using SteamSpy, we can get a pretty good idea of how much games of various genres end up selling.

Game Title	Steam Ownership
Final Fantasy VII	428,000
Final Fantasy VIII	428,000
Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale	413,000
Final Fantasy XIII	413,000
Ys Origin	223,000
Final Fantasy XIII-2	222,710
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;1	143,000
Ys: The Oath in Felghana	136,000
Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky	117,000
Final Fantasy III	109,000
Final Fantasy IV	98,000
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;2	70,000
Ys: The Ark of Napishtim	10,000
Toukiden Kiwami	5,000
Akiba's Trip	18,000

With all of this in mind, I think we can safely say that Dragon Quest games tend to be fairly popular overseas, and always have been.

So, then, why does Square-Enix consistently fail to see any viability in the franchise outside of of Japan? While the games may never have been blockbuster successes, it is clear that they consistently sell very well. And if the problem isn't with us, the consumers, it must lie with Square-Enix.

What's their problem?

Ultimately, it seems that Square-Enix simply no longer cares about simply "selling well." Instead of investing a comparatively small amount of money in developing or publishing comparatively cheap games that could reliably reap consistent profits, they would much rather invest a comparatively large amount of money developing a comparatively expensive gave that could potentially reap enormous profits.

In other words, they're only interested in playing at the high-stakes table these days.

This is why they abandoned their series of low-budget, but (very) faithful remakes of classic games (which included Dragon Quest IV, V and VI, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy I, II, III, and IV) and are instead pursuing much more expensive and ambitious products like the recently-announced Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Dragon Quest VIII sold 1.6 million copies outside of Japan.
Dragon Quest IX sold 1.4 million copies outside of Japan.

And those are really, really good sales figures--by ANY metric.
But the problem--Square-Enix's problem--is that they don't want good sales, they want absurd sales. They seem to think that if they can't sell as many copies of a game overseas as they can in Japan, that they shouldn't bother selling any. They want either three million sales, or zero sales.

Dragon Quest VIII sold 3.6 million copies in Japan.
Dragon Quest IX sold 4.3 million copies in Japan.

There is a serious problem here: Square-Enix's two greatest franchises are Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. Final Fantasy is an incredibly powerful brand outside of Japan but Dragon Quest, for a myriad of reasons, is not. And so long as Square-Enix insists on an All-Or-Nothing approach, that's unlikely to change any time soon.

UPDATE: 06. June 2015
Rumors abound that Horii, in an uncharacteristic fit of forthrightness, announced (albeit in an unofficial capacity) the overseas localization of 3DS remakes of Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest VIII. While this would be fantastic news, at this point its still a rumor. I would dearly love to believe that Square-Enix has recognized the enormous potential of the Dragon Quest franchise worldwide (especially if they bothered to actually advertise the games), but without an official announcement of some kind, Dragon Quest's Western future remains undetermined.

PARTS and WEAPONS

Having trouble finding a specific item? Well, I hope this chart will help you out. I'll try to make it as simple and easy to follow as I possibly can. This list is 100% complete, so if you can't find what you're looking for... keep looking until you do!

Don't forget the meaning behind each of the following abbreviations:

CAP	Capacity
AP	Armor Points
GEN	Generator
MEL	Melee Combat
RNG	Ranged Combat
SPD	Speed
BST	Boost
RAD	Radar
EFSF	Earth Federation
MERC	Mercenary

Note: while perusing the tables in the following sub-sections, keep in mind that the prices listed for individual parts and weapons is the default price: MERC players must pay twice as much for every part, weapon or mobile suit. So if an item is listed as costing 4000 points, it will cost 4000 points for EFSF and Zeon players, but 8000 points for MERC players. Also: when you sell excess parts from your inventory, you will only get 50% of its price, new. Therefore be very careful not to sell off any items, suits or weapons that you may want later.

Certain parts also require a particular rank, which is dependent on the amount of levels your pilot has gained. You gain levels by applying experience points to upgrade your pilot's stats.

The ranks and their requirements are as follows:

Warrant Officer	Level 1
Ensign	Level 20
Lieutenant	Level 40
Captain	Level 60
Major	Level 80
Lieutenant Colonel	Level 100
Colonel	Level 120
Brigadier General	Level 140
Major	Level 160
Lieutenant General	Level 180
General	Level 200

Finally, you will notice small number (ex. --4-)- contained within parenthesis after the mission location for each individual item. This is the item's number. Each mission has five items, but you can only earn a selection of three items in a mission on any given difficulty. Normal difficulty yields items 1 to 3, hard yield 2 to 4, and hell yields 3-5.

	Normal Difficulty	Hard Difficulty	Hell Difficulty
1	> Chance to Obtain! <
2	> Chance to Obtain! <	> Chance to Obtain! <
3	> Chance to Obtain! <	> Chance to Obtain! <	> Chance to Obtain! <
4		> Chance to Obtain! <	> Chance to Obtain! <
5			> Chance to Obtain! <

The order is always constant, so when you complete a mission on HARD, for example, the items will be ordered 2, 3 and 4, in that order. If you did not receive the item 3, for example, the middle item on the list will have nothing (just a bunch of question marks). Remember the number of the item you want, and you'll be able to tell whether or not you earned it or not without having to dig through your whole inventory.

CUSTOMIZATION PARTS

These charts should be fairly self-explanatory. I name the part, what it does, and where to find it. If there's a price, you can buy it in a store, if not, you'll have to get it from one of the free missions. If the free mission must be completed on a certain difficulty, I have noted it as such in parenthesis. If no parentheticals are present, that means clearing the mission on normal difficulty will suffice.

Remember: You can only play free missions on Hard and Hell difficulties when online.

A quick note on abbreviations:

CAP = Capacity
SPD = Speed
GEN = Generator
BST = Boost
AP = Armor Points
MEL = Melee
RNG = Range
RAD = Radar

EVOLUTION PARTS

Upgrade parts are used to evolve certain mobile suits into different mobile suits. Again, this chart should be fairly self-explanatory. The original suit is the mobile suit you'll have to equip the part to in order to evolve it to the new suit (which, obviously, is the new suit). The quantity is the number of those parts you will need before you can evolve the original suit and the availability, again, is where to find 'em.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this game worth importing?	Do you like Gundam games? Do you like playing online? If so, you'll probably find it worth the cost of importing. But, ideally, you should watch some gameplay videos and decide for yourself if you think the game looks fun. Personally, I thought it looked fantastic, so I bought it, and I've never looked back.
Is this game ever going to come out in the United States or Europe?	No. Gundam Senki is nearly two years old already, and we haven't seen anything to give us even the slimmest glimmer of hope for an overseas localization. It's too bad, but predictable.
Will this game work on my American/European Playstation 3?	While Blu-Ray movies do have region coding, no PS3 games have region coding. This means that you can play ANY Playstation 3 title on ANY Playstation 3 console. There are NO exceptions.
Is there a translation for the game?	Not at this time, no. Most of the menus are in English and the controls are fairly standard, so you should be able to play without much trouble. While it's true you won't be able to understand the story of the game, The Japanese PSN store does have an OVA based on the game, and it's entirely possible that this OVA will eventually be (illegally) subbed.
Is there any Downloadable Content (DLC)?	Yes, there is a variety DLC available for Gundam Senki at the moment. At launch, players will be able to download two mobile suits to additional to add to the game, as well as an OVA-rental covering the story of game. First-printings of the game will all contain codes to freely-download the OVA from the Japanese PSN store, and the special edition bundles (the game packaged with a new slim PS3) will feature codes to download the first two DLC mobile suits for free. Numerous additional mobile suits are also available for download, the details of which you can find here in this FAQ.
How do I buy the DLC?	First, you will need to set-up a Japanese account in order to log-in to the Japanese PSN Store. Then, you will have to add funds, which can be rather tricky. You have two options: you can either use a Japanese credit card, provided you have one, or you will have to purchase a Japanese PSN money card from an online retailer. Sadly, The Japanese PSN store will not accept funds, credit-card or PSN-card, that do not originate in Japan itself.
I got a code with my game to download the OVA, but I can't figure out how to do so. Can you help me?	Sorry, but the code for the free rental of the OVA from the PSN store only applies to people accessing the PSN store from Japan. And if you're in Japan, you really don't have much use for this FAQ, do you?
Is there a mandatory install?	No. You do, however, have the option to install the game's data to your HDD謡hich will use up about 3.5GB of space. Installing has a mild-to-meager effect on how quickly the game loads. Personally, I haven't noticed much of a difference.
How do I play online?	In order to play Gundam Senki online, you simply need to have an active internet connection. You do not need to create a Japanese PSN account. You may experience lag online depending on a variety of factors, first and foremost being the strength of your connection. The servers are also quite busy during the weekend, so if you do have a limited online connection you may want to think carefully about when you play.
Why can't I join an online match?	Certain matches are closed. If you're unable to join a specific game, try either finding a different game, or hosting your own.
Why can't I accept my friend's invitation?	There are a variety of reasons why you can't enter a match you've been invited to. The most common would simply be that the room has already entered a mission, and you can't join while a mission is in progress. The second most common explanation would be that the factions do not match up. Federation players can only join rooms hosted by other Federation players, and the same is true for Zeon players. Mercenary players can enter a room hosted by either Federation of Zeon players (as well as other mercenaries, of course) but ONLY other mercenary players can join a room hosted by a mercenary player. The final and least common explanation would simply be that the game's servers are enduring too much lag, and your connection times out. When this happens, you will enter-the room, but will not see any other players. After a short while, you will automatically eject from the room.
Why is online multiplayer so laggy?	While not always the case, some online games will involve significant amounts of lag. Why? Most commonly it's because either you have a poor connection, or the game's host has a poor connection. It's also possible that the game's servers are overtaxed. I've also hear reports that physical proximity plays a role (but I've not been able to verify this) which means that, essentially, the further apart the individual players are, the more likely the game is to lag. Personally, I have not seen this happen and have had no trouble playing with other players in the East US Coast, West US Coast, Western Europe and Japan (simultaneously), so take this last bit with a grain of salt.
Is this the best Gundam game?	At first, I thought, almost, but not quite.-But, to be perfectly honest, the more I play Gundam Senki, the more I fall in love with it. I can now say with a good deal of confidence that, in my opinion, Gundam Senki looks better and plays better than any other Gundam Game ever. It is lacking in terms of mission content and mobile suit variety... but those are paltry concerns, at best, for a game that is so much fun to play.
When will the next gundam game be released?	Two new gundam titles are coming in 2010: the first, Another Century Episode R is due out in July of 2010—think a crossover game with plenty of Gundam, Macross and even a bit of Full Metal Panic tossed in—and the second is actually an arcade game, titled "Extreme Versus," and is the next generation of the popular "versus" series of gundam games. The arcade hardware is modelled on PS3 architecture, so it's likely we'll get a port before too long. The arcade version will be released in Japan in Q3 2010.
Why isn't this FAQ finished yet?	You mean it's not? Well, that's news to me—email me whatever you think is missing and I'll do my best to add it in. As far as I know, this FAQ is done. Barring whatever mobile suits and missions might be added as DLC in the future, I don't really plan on updating this FAQ again any time soon.
What are the shield and beam rifle for the RX-78-7 called? Where are they?	The shield for the RX-78-7 is called the "Gundam Shield+" and the beam rifle is the "Beam Rifle+." Please refer to the item tables for information on how to obtain each item.
Will there be any more DLC?	It's 2011 already, and we've seen nothing new for more than a year, so... what do you think? No, we're not going to see any new DLC, sadly.
Would you write a FAQ for any future Gundam game on the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 or Wii?	Definitely not for the Wii, but if no one else steps up to the plate, I'll probably tackle a FAQ for future games. I've ended up writing a partial FAQ for ACE:R, but given how godawful that game was, I think it best to qualify my potential future plans with, "only if it's a decent game."
May I copy this file, slap my name on it and claim it as my own work?	No, you may not. Despite being just plain rude, that's also illegal. I should hope no one would have such poor judgment....

Gundam Senki Translation Guide: Mobile Suits

2014-08-09T10:56:00.002-05:00

MOBILE SUITS

Gundam Senki has over seventy mobile suits to choose from, many of which seem very similar to other mobile suits. This guide is designed to help players determine how each mobile suit compares to the others, and to help them decide which mobile suit best fits his or her playing style.

You obtain new mobile suits one of three ways: they are either given to you automatically, you purchase them with the points you earn after each successful mission, or you evolve them by equipping various parts and weapons on already owned mobile suits. It pays to tinker! The stats listed in this fact are only the basic, default stats. The game allows you to customize your machine with a variety of equipment and parts, which can allow you to drastically alter the performance of a mobile suit.

FEDERATION MOBILE SUITS

The Earth Federation developed mobile suits late into the One Year War by reverse-engineering Zeon's iconic Zaku I mobile suit. The resulting machine, the prototype RX-78-2, and it's mass-production line, the RGM series, retain the same basic internal structure of the first Zeonic mobile suit, but with far superior performance and weapon systems. Cheap and easy to produce in large quantities, the GM is the backbone of the EFSF mobile suit forces. It is supplemented in battle by various artillery-type suits (Guncannons and Guntanks) as well as powerful limited-production Gundam-type high-performance mobile suits.

Please note that the environmental affinity lists each mobile suit's ability to maneuver in each of the three environments in the same order as they appear in-game: on land, under water and in space. Therefore, an environmental affinity of 3-2-1 indicates a land maneuverability rating of 3, an underwater maneuverability rating of 2, and a space maneuverability rating of 1. Also note that the point cost listed in these tables is the normal point cost—players who choose the Mercenary faction in free mission mode will find all of these point costs doubled. Therefore a mobile suit that costs Zeon or Federation pilots 700,000 points will end up costing Mercenary pilots 1,400,000 points.

ZEON MOBILE SUITS

Mobile Suits were first developed by the Republic of Zeon as multi-purpose construction vehicles, capable of operating well both within the confines of a colony and in the void of space. After the assassination of Zeon zum Deikun and the reformation of Zeon as a principality, mobile suits were quickly repurposed as combat machines. The first combat mobile suit, Zeon's MS-05 Zaku, proved itself devastatingly effective in the early days of the One Year War: the advent of Minovsky-particles forever changed the face of modern warfare, and ensured that the Zaku—and all its descendants—would reign surpreme over the battlefield.

DLC MOBILE SUITS

For a fee, you may download certain additional mobile suits and play with them (in Free Mission mode only). These suits are drawn from the same general era as the game, so 0081 up to 0086. No matter which faction the mobile suit "belongs" to, you can access DLC mobile suits from any Free Mission faction. Please note that even after you buy DLC mobile suits from the PSN store, you will still need to purchase them inside the game before you can use them.

Will this game ever be localized in English and released outside of Japan?	No. There is absolutely zero possibility of this or any other Macross game ever being localized.
Is this game import-friendly?	Yes and no. The game itself is very easy to play and many of the menu and UI elements contain English text... however it is on the PlayStation Vita, a console that is not import-friendly at all. If you want to play the game as-is, you're good to go... but if you want to get any of the DLC, you'll need to play on a Japanese PSN account—which means you'll either have to constantly reformat and switch accounts on your memory card, or purchase a second memory card for use exclusively with Japanese games.
I want to buy this game! Where should I import it from?	You have many options! AmiAmi and Play-Asia are two of the biggest import stores out there, but I'd recommend checking out Amazon.co.jp first. Amazon frequently discounts their games quite a bit, and many of their products qualify for international shipping. I bought Delta Scramble from Amazon.co.jp myself a few weeks after release... for approximately 45% off the MSRP.
Is this game compatible with the PlayStation TV / PSTV?	Yes.
I'm playing the game on a non-Japanese PSN account. Can I still update?	Yes, you can! Simply tap the update icon on the game page from the Vita's UI, and it will download no matter what region your PSN account is tied to. Please remember to update as soon as possible because the big 1.02 patch is not compatible with older save-data, and you'll have to start over.
Why should I update the game?	The 1.01 update will grant you a special one-time bonus of 100,000 credits; the 1.02 update will add in additional missions covering the remainder of the Macross Delta anime series as well as Extra missions from other Macross series, including Super-Dimensional Fortress Macross, Macross Seven and Macross Frontier.
Why shouldn't I update the game?	I dunno, man.
I just patched my game to 1.02, and now the game is making me start over?	Save-data from version 1.00 and 1.01 is not compatible with the 1.02 patch, so you will have to start all over again.
Is this game similar to the PSP Macross games?	Yes. The mechanics are virtually the same.
Can I play the DLC on a non-Japanese PSN account?	No, you will be able to download the updates but not the DLC. You'll need a Japanese PSN account for that.
Can you help me set up a Japanese PSN account?	No. Just Google it, there are many walkthroughs out there and it really isn't very difficult.
Can you help me set up an Amazon.co.jp account?	No. It's really very easy. When you do set up an account, you'll have to provide a Japanese address (just write in something random)... but once you've made an account you can add an international address and then delete the Japanese address.
I found an aircraft/pilot/support character that isn't in your guide, what should I do?	Email me, please. Mwulf.0079@gmail.com
How do I unlock a specific aircraft/pilot/supporter?	Playing the game thoroughly should unlock everything. If an aircraft/pilot/supporter is not included in this guide, it means one of two things: it is either not included in the game, or I have yet to include that information in the guide. Remember, this is a work-in-progress.
Why aren't all of your translations 100% accurate?	Two reasons. First and foremost, don't expect perfection—I'm far from fluent. Actually, my Japanese kind of sucks. Second, in many cases I avoid direct translations in order to best convey information as directly and concisely as possible. For translation guides such as this, clarity is paramount.
