[LFP] LANCER RPG, GM looking for players interested in playing a Mech RPG; Sunday, Pacific Standard Time[GMT-8] (tentative)

Long time player here, with alot of experience GMing and playing games of all types. I am looking for 4-5 players who are interested in playing a Mech/Sci-Fi/Cyberpunk style game.  Using the Lancer RPG settings and rules. I love narrative games with cooperative party driven story telling, my idea is that you are all a special mech unit sent on special assignments for the main faction of the Setting, The Union.  However those specific details can be changed if the party comes up with their own group idea(subject to my approval and input of course). I am proposing a Sunday session just for the session zero unless you all agree to a different day/time. Lancer RPG is a very rules light game, most of the rules are just for the mech combat and they are no where near as complex as say Battletech or Warhammer, so if you want to get your Gundam on(that's the general vibe of the setting) this is a fun game to do it in. Please PM me the following: Name: General Experience: Favorite Mecha or Cyberpunk: Your availability Sunday, and if so what time (please identify your time zone):
Update, start time will now be 12-1pm Pacific Standard Time Sunday(GMT-8), at least for the session zero
The mech rules are quite crunchy.  I'm in U.S. EST time.  I might be interested, if you all decide on Sunday evenings my time.

Update: I am now up to 3 potential players, for the Session Zero we might do it on SATURDAY, 6/21, at 1:30PM PST (GMT-8) It is looking like the game will be run on SUNDAYS, weekly or bi-weekly, around the same time (12pm PST).&nbsp; Still looking for 1-2 more people Here is a nice overview of Lancer in case you are curious what the setting/system is about <a href="https://youtu.be/V2FSg-5sKPM?si=9-deMcfUgYmkgYf8" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/V2FSg-5sKPM?si=9-deMcfUgYmkgYf8</a> <a href="https://youtu.be/1RVVx4AutkM?si=-nj6KyrzFrp_6tyh" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/1RVVx4AutkM?si=-nj6KyrzFrp_6tyh</a>
Still looking for 1-2 players: For anyone put off by this being a more tactical battle game, as a long time DnD and TTRPG player, this system is very easy to learn and uses more aspects of traditional TTRPG combat mechanics than hardcore wargame mechanics. It has turns, HP, saves, uses a d20 and d6's in a&nbsp; Advantage/Disadvantage system&nbsp; that is very much like TTRPGs.&nbsp; It also relies more on action economy, what types of actions and how many you can do, than things like combat phases from Battletech/Warhammer. If you love mechanics synergy and power gaming this game has alot of that to offer. Session Zero will be held on SATURDAY, 6/21, @1:30pm PST(GMT -8), but the game will likely be on SUNDAYS around 12pm PST (GMT -8)
Party is full
The rules are indeed fairly simple.&nbsp; It has several moving parts, but once you start playing, it all starts to make sense quickly.
