* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Military service is a prerequisite for holding any public office in the Earth Federation, the higher, the more service. In an aversion, government office can also count towards this, but since it's impossible to hold even the lowest public office without a minimum years of service, every public official requires at least some military service.

Originally known as Roleplay/GalacticSoldierTroperion, Roleplay/MythrilAces is an RP on the Wiki/TVTropes forums. It was created by @/{{Lockonlockon}} and GM'd by @/{{Hydrall}}, with parts of the setting provided by pretty much anyone involved. The original iteration ran solidly for about two years until the game developed creative differences between the players, leading to decreased input, several people leaving and an eventual stall from which it never recovered.

Gameplay was be somewhat turn-based using RollToDodge as a template. Actions were rolled for by each side's GM, with bonuses depending on the situation. Combat will be generally at somewhat long range, but depending on players' actions it could really take place anywhere. Each frame started with 100% health, with an additional amount of health depending on armor class. Heavy is another 100%, medium is 50%, and light is 25%. The trade off was that lighter armored frames get more actions per turn. Heavy armor frames can only perform two action per turn, mediums can perform three, and lights can perform up to four, but one of them can only be used to move. Damage done by any attack was determined by the dice and the GM's discretion. Battles can be in space or on planets, with the majority being the former.

involved. The original iteration ran solidly for about two years until the game developed creative differences between the players, leading to decreased input, several people leaving and an eventual stall from which it never recovered.

The essential premise was a century long conflict, shifting between tense cease fires and open warfare, between the Earth Federation and the Centauri Confederacy (later Redubbed The Solar Federation and Centauri Commonwealth respectively). Conflict was fought out largely between Mecha in deep space with a tone reminsicisent of various Gundam series. The specifics of this conflict have developed and changed over the years but this much has remained constant.

During its prime, it sired 3 spinoffs of varying success, one of which, named Aeris Gaiden, would become a notable game in its own right, although it died only a month after the original.

Two years later, however, a band of old players launched [[Roleplay/MythrilAcesReunion Mythril Aces (Re)Union]], as a follow-up sequel game which takes place ten years after the original.

Included on this page are the three major iterations of the story.

[[folder:The Story Up Till Now]]
After the devastating ambush by unknown forces at Lamia, the two countries resumed their galactic war with renewed fury, swearing vengeance for those who died in the attack with no knowledge of the third party. The Aces of the Federation and Knights of the Confederacy have joined in this war effort, lending their skills to a variety of battles in the Lambdadelta sector.

On one side, the Bannikberg Regiment, led by Trio Knight Lorraine venne Bannikberg. On the other, the Federation's 195th Aces Squadron, led by Commander Calven Hobbes. Both are powerful- if small- forces in the war, and the only ones alive who have any inkling of what occured at Lamia. Many are newly Knighted or promoted, unused to the strain that their rank bestows and the responsibility placed upon them. Yet they have risen time and again to face the enemy and crushed them utterly, without a failure yet.

But their knowledge has earned them powerful enemies. When the ever-belligerant Ace Jaedong Lee attempts to defect to the Centauri and is denied, he narrowly avoids execution at the hands of his former allies by joining up with the shadowy group known only as ROZUM. They appear several times before the Bannikberg Regiment, once briefly kidnapping their leader in an attempt to silence them. It appears a conspiracy of some kind runs deep in both the governments and their militaries, and only a select few have any knowledge of the truth.

Now, as the war begins to heat up further, as the conspirators become more bold and the heartlands of both nations are threatened... How long will it be until something gives?

A spin-off of Roleplay/MythrilAces, also known as Roleplay/GalacticSoldierTroperion, Roleplay/MythrilTroperionAerisGaiden is an RP on the TVTropes forum. It was created by @/{{Fauxlosophe}} as a GaidenGame to the original RP, and as such many of it's tropes and details on the setting can be found on that page.


Like it's predecessor, Mythril Aces: Aeris Gaiden is set in our galaxy almost a thousand years in the future, where the two galactic superpowers, the Earth Federation and the Centauri Confederacy, war with each other in a massive, galaxy-wide conflict with no end in sight. Both factions use specially made mecha called Armored Mobile Frame, dubbed [=AMFs=] or Frames for short, which run off of a mysterious substance dubbed [[GreenRocks Mythril]].


Unlike the original RP, which focuses on high-skill Aces and Knights operating on special missions, Aeris Gaiden is based around the trials and tribulations of ordinary pilots on the contested world of Aeris, a Federation world taken by the Centauri for many years, as a Federation fleet invades. It is notable for having a far less forgiving difficulty, as opposed to the original in which combat was considered fairly easy. It is also much shorter than it's sprawling, hundred plus page parent.

It [[http://mythrilaces.wikia.com/wiki/Mythril_Aces_Wiki shares a wiki with the original RP.]]

Located [[http://mythrilaces.wikia.com/wiki/Mythril_Aces_Wiki here.]]

''"Try not to die"''

[[/folder]]

[[Folder: (Re)Union]]

A failed treaty conference sparks a way, where characters much like those in the original, form up respective sides of a three year war. The scales and specific locations of combat have changed but otherwise the story remains the same, with the players arriving at the planned conclusion; Veillard (successor to Lorraine's Regiment) and Hobbes prevent coups on their respective governments by a mysterious ROZUM organization. Midgard is eventually regained after years of bitter fighting by the Federation, though pockets of resistance remain until the end of the war. The two governments agree to a ceasefire and commit to internal investigations while keeping under wraps how close the Humanity came to a major collapse and bitter civilwar, however the ROZUM threat has not been eliminated but rather lies weakened and dormant, waiting for a new chance to strike...

Ten years of peace pass but tensions mount in the neutral Bodhi system as the two Powers support different factions within the system. Simultaneous attacks by both Federation and Centauri forces on strongholds made on mysterious orders suddenly escalate the war. Now, the Protagonists, previously expecting to be serving as instructors and auxilaries, are thrust into the centre stage of a new war.

[[Folder: Aeris Gaiden Tropes]]

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Subverted and played straight. On one hand, kills can earn pilots quicker promotions. On the other, it's been shown that skill in a Frame doesn't make a pilot a good officer and just as often end up joining [[ElitesAreMoreGlamorous special forces]], while those in command often avoid piloting if they can.
* AMechByAnyOtherName: The AMF (Armored Mobile Frame) and it's predecessor the ATMC (All-Terrain Mobile Chassis).
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Played straight. Commanders and officers are often former pilots with high kill scores, and many of them have significantly upgraded Frames.
* BlueBlood: Vestigial from the original game however on a much smaller scale. A couple players hail from old money, while only one holds a title [which is technically entirely honourary]. Also an insult used by Federation soldiers.
* BrickJoke: Many. Most notably "The Fighting Flying Electric Squirrels" arose from a complaint three months prior to their appearance about a gym leader in Pokemon Black in the discussion thread for the main RP. Many other attributed elements of Aeris from before the RP were subtlety pulled in, both serious and joking. But most make an appearance. Eventually.
* CriticalExistenceFailure: Averted. Frames take realistic damage and suffer from it's effects as they drop in health.
* EternalEnglish: Played with. Colonists speak a Franco-English creole invented for the purpose of the colonisation while various dialects of corrupted English, Mandarin and Swedish are spoken in various areas but the soldiers of the Federation and Confederacy speak standardized English based on what was spoken prior to the Centauri/Sol split only a hundred years from present day.
* ExpandedUniverse: The wiki, which extends the content seen in Aeris Gaiden and the original RP vastly, with heavily detailed worlds, languages, and cultures for both superpowers and several minor powers not yet mentioned at all in either RP.
* [[FrickinLaserBeams Frickin' Laser Beams and Swords]]: The Centauri as a whole, although rapid-fire weapons and snipers are also very popular, they use them much less in Aeris than in the original RP, replacing them with good old-fashioned firearms.
* GreenRocks: Mythril, in the expanded universe.
* Franchise/{{Gundam}}: Heavily influenced, just like the original RP. Draws more inspiration from ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamThe08thMSTeam'' and similar series than the original.
* LastNameBasis: Played straight and averted. Fairly common among higher level officers, what with it being a military setting, yet many low-level soldiers, particularly the players and their squads, refer to each other by their first names.
* LowerDeckEpisode: The entire series as a whole, to the main RP.
* MildlyMilitary: For the most part averted, though there is some allowance for the [[RuleOfFun sake of the narrative]].
* PutOnABus: The mass desertion of about half the Centauri PC's after their players dropped the RP.
* RagTagBunchOfMisfits: Both squads of PC's, with the Feds dipping into Rag Tag Bunch Of Mentally Unhealthy People [[AndZoidberg And Phil]] on occasion.
** The Federation squads include a pyromaniac alcoholic with a tenuous grasp on reality, a shameless womanizer with a worrying attachment to his Frame, an insubordinate jaded ex-lawyer, an overly idealistic and enthusiastic by-the-book recruit, and... one fairly normal guy with a tendency to quote [[Literature/TheBible the Old Testament]] during battle.
** The Centauri include an [[SmallNameBigEgo honourary noble with an ego the size of a small planet]], a wanna-be FilmNoir detective who narrates things in a dramatic InternalMonologue, a fresh-faced new recruit with a love of strawberries, and a stoic sniper.
* RealRobotGenre: Played straight to the max. Frames are useless without teams of engineers, pilots and equipments are expensive but replaceable, and trying to be a hero will get you killed ''fast''.
* ShoutOut: Many, to the point where the entire planet of Aeris is a BrickJoke ShoutOut to VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII from the original RP. Creator/MontyPython, Franchise/{{Gundam}}, and Franchise/FinalFantasy have numerous shout outs.
* ThemeNaming: Quite a bit. Metals and Stones for Federation equipment made by the Metallurgy Corp, English Weaponry circa WWI and II for many Cents, Mythology for customs, and FFVII/Norse Mythology for Aeris itself.
* SpaceMarine: Subverted. They exist, but they are just regular soldiers who happen to perform boarding actions and fight in space. Regular marines and other infantry also exist and receive significantly more screen time.
-----
[[Folder: (Re)Union Tropes]]
*Artificial Intelligence: Significantly limited compared to the first; Robots and Computer programs have not obtained Human level intelligence and response times, [[JustifiedTrope justifying]] why Humans are still piloting rather than drones.
*AdaptationDistillation: Years of ThrowItIn World building both in and out of game, lead to wierd and sometimes contradictory Canon. In order to make it more comprehensible and appealing, a lot of elements were merged, cut or downplayed.
*ContinuityLockout: The GMs have done everything in their power to minimize this, cutting the rather substantial 50+ world factions into 15 clearly developed worlds for both sides.

*ContinuityReboot: Planets were renamed, figures removed or made more important in order to suit the needs of the GMs. It's generally best considered as an AU to the first.
*DarkerAndEdgier: Not to the point of Grimdarkness, but the game hasn't shyed away from death and grey morality and sheds far more light on moral ambiguity than the original.
