Tactical RPG Mecharashi Pre-registration Begins

The pre-registration window is officially open on PC, iOS and Android for Mecharashi, a free tactical RPG that lets you take charge of garment and deploy a machine pilot.

If this is your first time hearing from Mecharashi, it was developed by Blackjack Studio and focused on strategy and tactics. Each mecha of you and your enemies consists of four parts: body, legs, right arm, and left arm. Each section has its own independent HP, and reducing each section to zero will lead to different results.

“The core game of our game was inspired by the front mission,” the development team told IGN. “When we reviewed the brilliant design of the front-line mission, the most striking revelation came from the groundbreaking choices in 1995: And then Other strategy games are fixed to the rock paper-screwed anti-system style (>Spear”, which boldly abandons this rational approach, which introduces part destruction to create a truly meaningful battlefield.”

In Mecharashi, destroying each enemy's body is the ultimate goal, as this makes them permanent. But that doesn't necessarily mean you should focus all your attacks on that area. Take out the legs so that they can’t move, and with the arms of each mechanical weapon equipped, destroying these weapons can greatly reduce firepower and prevent powerful charging attacks. You need to evaluate the threat posed by each enemy, find out the best way to neutralize them, and take advantage of each member of the squad to achieve this.

“We adopted the fascinating tactical chess logic of Front Mission because it fits exactly as the mecha+tactical chess theme,” the development team said. “The strategic dimension has been significantly enhanced: players now rely on more realistic logic to remember attributes,” he said. Counters, instead rely on more realistic logic – destroying the legs to limit mobility, breaking the weapon pods to eliminate threats, and hitting the cockpit to disable the comb capability. Every decision should have a tangible tactical benefit.”

Destroying different parts will not only have strategic effects on the battle, but also see visual differences based on which part is destroyed.

“We use this generation of 3D standards to create machines with realistic metal textures, dirt and scratches. Spark short circuit – visual depth that is difficult to achieve under the limitations of 1995 technology.”

Each pilot in your crew falls into the role category that defines his role in combat. Warriors are melee experts, with powerful attacks but limited range. Raiders use assault weapons to cause high burst damage. Sniper attacks from range and can target specific parts of the enemy. Tacticians can also attack from longer distances and hit multiple targets immediately. Guardians protect allies and limit the movement of enemies. Last but not least, mechanics can repair Allied machinery.

You can customize each pilot's mecha (including their individual parts, weapons and color schemes) and can assemble a variety of bodies, arms and legs, affecting the appearance and statistics of the machinery. Different weapons provide different types of attacks in different ranges. The color scheme gives you the option to choose from over 120 colors, and you can mix and match several colors at once to completely customize the appearance of each mecha.

“For years, the front mission has had new tactical chess games, and the mecha is a visual genre,” the development team said. “The realistic texture of mechanics and metal has a strong visual appeal. So we A large amount of artistic resources have been invested in the construction of mechanical design and the world atmosphere.”

Once you have equipped your squad to your preference, it’s time to deploy. You will be questing in the firm environment of Milkhama Island where a new mineral (called Arashium) is found causing factions to form and try to protect it on their own. What caused that? You guessed it: violence and war.

The mercenary lineup you play is recruited into the government’s defense force to help put down a rebel group known as “Ash,” but you will soon realize that not everything is. As the story develops, you will deal with corruption, complex politics, deception and betrayal, and you may become a key player in the struggle to change the course of history.

This story is developed through full performance chapters and sub-chaps, each of which sends your team on missions. Before each mission, you will have the opportunity to select a battle party and its starting position on the map. The battle is round-based and progresses step by step until you complete the designated goal of the mission. These targets can include eliminating all enemies, destroying a specific enemy, or reaching a designated evacuation zone.

Each mecha has a motion limit and attack range, which is displayed as different colored blocks on a grid-based map. Some character classes and weapon types provide unique abilities that require a certain number of APs. Each character starts the battle with 3 APs and adds some attacks on each turn, but many attacks require more APs than a single turn of the unit means you need to take time to strategically Establish AP reserves.

Destroying the enemy's mecha will grant AP to those who suffer the final blow, so part of your strategy will revolve around AP management to ensure that every party member can contribute consistently without wasting any turn. You also need to pay attention to the enemy's mechanical type and weapons, as they may strike back if you hit them from the range you are equipped.

Once your goal is completed, you will receive a reward and each member of the fighter will receive an EXP. Rewards include Arashium, Mech parts, weapons, recruitment tokens, money and items you can give specific party members to give them experience immediately. Arashium is a special currency, and the recruitment token is used to recruit new members for your squad.

Between the battles, you will return to the base where you can upgrade the mecha and the pilot. During the story, the pilot will unlock a bionic computer, which is essentially its personal skill tree. You need to collect specific items to unlock each node, which can provide things like statistics, passive skills, and combat abilities.
