Super-Gorilla Fortress One... (laughs) ...yeah, I suppose. The original Macross's ASS-1 wasn't designed to transform, either - variable geometry mecha (let alone ships, aside from the tuning fork guns) were an entriely human innovation - and developed by the Anti-UN coalition for the SV-51, after stealing the SIF from the UN. Lots of espionage all around, there.
Jumping back up the thread some... I always felt that the fanbase view of Kamjin was a little extreme, myself - he shot at traitors when they tried to desert, adopted the parts of human culture he felt were useful while retaining the warrior ideal of his own people, and even got his head around that wierd 'love' thing with Lap'Lamiz just before the end... I'm not seeing a really bad guy here. If he wasn't on the enemy side, he'd be a protagonist; it's like Isamu Dyson in a black hat.
Oh, and while we're on the subject, let's make the new Lap'Lamiz counterpart look like Megatokyo 2040's Sylia, just for giggles. Classic Lap'Lamiz

Quote:Well, there's three outrigger positions available... I'd put the ARMOR flight-deck-out on the bottom, inverted from the orientation of the rest of the ship, and just have it undock for landing operations.
And which we'd keep of the three currently proposed -- carrier, battleship, and ARMD
