What's this OMS thing? Isn't it some mind control thing for boomers? I'd
like to know more about it, like whether or not the KS know about that
project and how it works.
Over Mind-control System
The OMS is essentially a massive override device for *every* Boomer on the
face of the Earth (and in orbit, as far as I know). If the OMS is ever
used, the person (or persons) controlling it would be in command of every
single Boomer in existence.
The OMS is also Genom's most closely guarded secret; if the governments of
the world ever found out about it then they would tear Genom apart -
assuming they were around long enough.
Also, can't Largo be brought back to life? I kinda wanna bring him to life
so he could fight against Ranma in the cossover I'm doin'..
Heh. Largo HAS been brought back to life, even in the anime - and don't
forget the sheer number of fanfics out there that keep bringing Largo back
for more . . .
Largo is the Boomer reincarnation of Brian J. Mason. First appearance in
(April?) 2033, destroyed (in May?) by the Knight Sabers - or so everyone
thought. Largo re-appeared in 2034 during the events of Bubblegum Crash!,
but physically was still very vulnerable.
If you want to bring Largo back, just have his personality downloaded into
a fresh Boomer body. He seems to like the idea of being immortal.
How many kinda boomers have Genom made? There's the 'Doberman',Bu-55c, the
prototype C-99x, Bu-33s sexaroids, Bu-15b, and those C-series women...is that
all?
Good lord . . . ^.^;;
Those are almost alll examples of combat models (Although I think you
meant the Bu-12B, not the Bu-15b). Genom makes *ALL* sorts of Boomers:
combat, battlefield, domestic servants, heavy construction, maintenance
and repair, security guards . . . heck, even waitresses. Look at the BGC
role-playing game from R. Talsorian, pages 96-97 . . . and then use your
imagination.
How fast is Priss' bike? Not that one she thrashed while tryin' to catch that
Griffon, Revenge Road...which is an episode that doesn't seem to fit in with
BGC.
The speed given in _Before & After_ for Priss's BGCrash-period bike is
listed at an improbable 400 kph. The Pro Racer in the main BGC RPG book is
a more sensible 230 kph.
On last thing...has the KS ever been into Genom Tower? If so, how much of it
have they seen, and why did they go in there?
They've been up the outside on two occasions: BGC 3 (Sylia fights Mason at
the summit) and BGC 6 (Priss challenges Largo, the other Sabers arrive in
time to save Priss and (supposedly) destroy Largo). The most any of the
Sabers have seenof the inside is Priss's view of Quincy's office (then
completely trashed by Largo's battle with several Bu-55Cs).
This is assuming they haven't been inside on other business . . .
