Hey, does anyone know of any good Battletech/Mechwarrior fics? I found The Littlest Elemental earlier today and fell completely in love with it, but the author seems to have sporadic update periods and I want to get into this (previously unknown to me) fandom.

The Divine Champion., an Elder Scrolls fic. Another alternate Dragonborn, this time Talos himself, who has chosen to step down from being a Divine in order to stop Alduin and save Nirn. Already many side plots have been done by different people. The Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild quests have been completed by an Imperial OC, there is another Harbinger of the companions, the whole Winterhold/Eye of Magnus deal has been completed by another recruit, etc, etc. The world doesn't just revolve around the Dragonborn, which is something I really like about the fic. Currently at the siege of Whiterun.

Seconding this. It's an excellent story, well written and the author has a good beta by her side.

Damn. I thought it was a true update. Only the last third of that is even new, the rest was something that he had out months ago.

Warhammer 40kStarTrek crossover

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8959466/1/Without-War-to-Guide-Me

In the grim darkness of the future there is only war. But what happpens to a Space Marine when he is stranded in a place where his unique set of talents are neither needed, desired, or valued by humanity? What is a weapon's purpose without a war to fight in?

This has potential. Save for a few geeky criticisms that I can ignore it appears to be developing ok.
 
Nice find. I have to admit, my first thought of which Legion the arstates belonged to was the Angry Marines but now I'm thinking Imperial Fist.

Because I absolutely know the section is going to be filled with 98% buttsex and tremble with fear at combing through it on my own, any Phoenix Wright fic recs?

I suggest Complete Turnabout (if you don't already know of it, that is):
Waking up in an unfamiliar room one morning, Phoenix Wright suddenly finds a Prosecutor's Badge in his possession. With most of his allies suddenly acting hostile towards him, will he figure out what truly caused the world he knew to suddenly change?

Why did I never think of linking this before?

Stand and Watch Them Fall (Final Fantasy Tactics Quest)
"I had lived my life the only way that I had known. But when the pillars of that life came crashing down, I did not stand and watch them fall. I turned, and walked away."

FFT Quest on SB. The only FFT quest I know. Probably the biggest quest many of us will ever see. It reaches 100k word before even reaching half of everything written so far.


We are Ramza. We started right after that fateful fight. And of course, once the choice was given, canon was disrailed. And already, we are making some waves with the changes...

I recommend it. If I had to rank quests I read, this is top, top tier material here.

Currently at Arc 8. In a certain monastery, fleeing and fighting a large force of assassins with certain companions we meet there.

Also, there's an index with every post linked there.

Of course it's good. It's written by Kei who wrote Exoria. Did you expect anything else but quality?

Far as I know we don't have a recommended Mass Effect thread.

Wish I had seen this one before. Interstitium. One of the best character works I've seen, for the entire crew in ME 2. It has EDI and Grunt discussing control and Thane and Jacob discussing loyalty and orders, that should give a sense of how extensive it is.

As a regular member, I would support this idea. Don't have enough recs to start anything though... :(

Traveler by The Straight Elf Ash Ketchum has been determined to become the best since he was a toddler. He has his eyes set on a charmander, but a twist of fate led him to the humble Nidoran. Note: Mix between anime and the games.

600k words and steady updates*. I actually like it more than Game of Champions overall, although I think GoC is superior in some aspects. Ash is good, probably even great but not god-like. The battle strategies used are more anime than game and the 4-move limit is completely ignored. I can't imagine everyone liking it but it's definitely worth a shot.

*Thinking about it, it could possibly be nearing the end of the story. The author hasn't mentioned anything of the sort though. I'll ask him next time I review.

Ok, since you said you like it more than Game of Champions, I'm going to give it a look.

If it's not in some ways better than Game, I'm going to be judging both you and your taste so, so very hard. Because Game is awesome.

Ok, finished Chapter 1.

No, Game of Champions is vastly superior. This is a mediocre story, written in a mediocre way, and has nothing non-mediocre about it to make me give it another look.

I'm judging you.

Yeah nah that doesn't even touch Game of Champions. I actually read quite of few chapters of it a while back because I was bored and didn't go back to it when I stopped specifically because it was just not very interesting.

Speaking of GoC, the new chapter's done on DLP, and it is amazing. FF version should be up soon.

Traveler suffers from a weak start but significantly improves once it hits St. Anne.

Which gets blown the fuck up.

May or may not be good. Persona 4 fanfic Righteous Justice.

Seems to be decently written, unfortunately I have no idea what the plot is beyond "Chie and Yu work together as police and it's probably a Chie/Yu fanfic".

Children of War

ME 3, post ending fanfic that looks at different side characters you meet during the war. Not great, but it is different and decently written.

Interstitium has finally updated! Author is saying that the last chapters are pretty much done, and expects to put out another update sometime next week.

Huh. They pm'd me once to say that it was still alive, but I thought that was just average "I'm not admitting I've given up" stuff. Nice.

Another update! Oh, happy days!

Interstitium
Okeer... you were cut down before you could live up to your interesting character design.

Don't really get why they don't post 30 and 31 if they're done. Drawing it out to keep people from asking where the last chapters are?

Anyone know any (good) Kingdom Hearts fics that aren't about dudes boning or High School AUs?
