Interest Check - Battle Century G - Space Opera Mecha Action!

With Battle Century G just a few weeks from being completed, I wanted to see if anyone was interested in playing this system some time. The setting is not the one provided in the book, but a very dramatic space opera about two empires, one political incident away from brutal war, and the plucky misfit crew of the Horizon's Call , a mercenary ship that is caught in the middle of the coming struggle. I'll be running the game as GM, but I only have two people to play currently. I'm looking for one to three more players to join the campaign. The game will follow the crew of the Horizon's Call (a curiously advanced pocket carrier for such a small mercenary company to have) as they travel across the galaxy, taking jobs to pay the bills while not becoming total heartless murderers and hopefully not pissing off the United Federation of Stars or the Confederation of Free Planets. The game's tone will drift between lighthearted to serious drama. The setting is by no means grimdark, but sucky things do happen throughout the galaxy, whether it been in the Independent Rim or the Dust, so I would like player who are not squeamish about awful things they may have to grapple with happening around them. Both the system and me as a GM encourage narrative style play, so if you're looking for a game that lets you get super crunchy and detail your mecha down to every knuckle's load bearing capacity and the bore of your cannons and customize the box of dice you roll when you hit something, this probably isn't the game for you. But if you're the kind of player who likes to explore character concepts and plot while also punching a giant mecha in the face with a pretty easy to learn system, this is your game. Please keep in mind, though, that I'm not going to be running this immediately. The game's final rules are not even finalized, and I'm at GM capacity until one of my other games closes down. I don't know how long it will take for a slot to open up, but if you're willing to wait, so am I. Feel free to reply here or send me PMs about interest, question about the setting I am using, and the like.
I would be curious if you'll be using voice or text for the game.
As a general rule, I like voice because it is how I do characters the best and I think roll20 is a not the best for text based, but I am not strictly opposed to going to text if the group wants to.
Alright. I may be interested if your group decides on text, but I'm otherwise out.
