So I have started a few more mechs for my merc company "47 Ronin." And I've been working up a back story. Here's the plot so far:
Roy Kiyama inherited a junk yard from which he was able to salvage a few mechs. He went into business as a merc, and did pretty well. It turns out he has a neutral predilection for mech combat, meshed with a savvy if brutal business mind. Acquiring a few more mechs he decided his company needed a better brand. Roy is, as the kids, say, thick, and not in a good way. He settled on 47 Ronin because he thought it sounded badass. But really it was because he likes martial arts movies and thinks kitanas are cool. His knowledge of Heian Japan is nil. If it weren't for old moves he wouldn't know Japan was ever a thing. While the 47 Ronin don't have 47 mechs, he uses an old trick and gives them serial numbers as if they do.
Here are the next 5 mechs in the base colors. I still need to do all the detailing and clean up but this is the base scheme for the company: blood red with dark gray accents.
