Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Sentai Command Mecha

"Sentai Command assmbled!"

-Sentai Command Mecha

The Sentai Command Mecha is the epic unit of Ilsa, the legendary general of The Protectorate's Erune Command. This epic unit is planned to be voiced by Dawn M. Bennet.

Tactical analysis

 * Time to Combine: Formed from the combination of nine custom vehicles, the Sentai Command Mech allows the Protectorate commander to honorably lead from the front.
 * Sentai Mecha Activated: Aside from being able to step on infantry and light units, the Sentai Command Mech can fire upon its foes with its arm-mounted tank cannon. If the commander requires more firepower the Sentai Command Mech can charge at a chosen opponent and release a point-blank blast that is not only almost certain to destroy it but also allows the Sentai to copy its weapon for itself.
 * Season Cancelled: For all its power, the Sentai Command Mech is not unstoppable and a rather obvious target, being large enough that interceptors such as the Achilles can attack it. And its weapons are too slow to hit aircraft.
 * Certain Kill...: The Sentai Command Mecha can also equip itself with the prototype "Caesar" module, which unlocks the Mecha's "Blazing Sword", which not only cuts through anything but fires a beam of energy, and boost its capabilities to the max. Unfortunately, the module can only be powered by the pilot's energy, potentially draining them to death. Making the module a last resort.

History
"Form feet and legs! Form arms and body! And I'll form the head!"

-Sentai forming sequence.

The origins of the Sentai Command Mecha can be traced back to the early forties. With the new mechanized warfare units slowly coming in, the scientists attempted to find a way to combine these new mecha into a whole new unit: The Mega mecha. The plans would have called for it to be even more powerful than the sum of its parts allowing it to crush almost any opposition that came across it. However, this plan was eventually scrapped as the technology needed to do such a thing was simply too advanced at the time.

However, that didn’t stop the Anime writers in Ulthuan from making something that was similar. The show was called Super Morphing Sentai From Outer Space. The show, originally made for kids, only lasted for 12 episodes before it was temporarily canceled due to a lack of viewers, though in recent times it began to resurge, particularly in Aquila where it was adapted as Mighty Transforming Space Defenders. Eventually, a Protectorate engineer who was babysitting his neighbor’s kids tuned in to the show and was instantly intrigued by the premise. In reality, the show originated when its creator accidentally witnessing the Tacitus Rangers having defeated a Brotherhood attack force.

An advanced fighting force from outer space turning into spandex-clad warriors who fought monsters and towards the end of the episode, they called on massive machines called Super Robots to help them take down the tougher monsters, again this had unintentionally come from the creator having witnessed the Rangers formed their Megazord to fight off a Redeemer and managing to survive the ensuing battle. The key thing the engineer oversaw however was that the Super Robots only really existed to become the Turbo Ultra Bot; an even more powerful humanoid robot that could crush all before it. Fascinated by this show, he watched all the episodes and returned to work the next day with plans for Ulthuans newest and most powerful mech yet (aside from the Shogun Executioner).

The Sentai was to be made out of several existing Protectorate vehicles which were slightly modified to fit onto the frame. The waist and upper legs would be made from a King Oni. Its right leg would be made from a Type 40 Yonmaru. Its left leg would be made from a Raiden MPRS. A stabilizer would be made from the Tanuki Vector Assault and would provide a platform for the other vehicles to come and form onto. The torso was made from the Tedate Projector which would supply power to the whole Mecha and provide a layer of protection for when the Mech unleashed its finishing move.

A chest plate was created from a modified Mecha tengu and would serve as a vantage point for the pilots. Its left arm was created from a modified Tsunami tank and equipped with the same technology used to create the Tsukumogami Proto-Suit allowing it to take weapons from its enemies. The right arm would have the most amount of articulation and was made out of a Striker VX.

The only thing missing from the technological masterpiece was the head. Engineers debated for a long time as to what the head would be, but eventually, it was decided that the head would be a scaled-down Giga Fortress that could still fire the powerful God’s Breath, however, due to the power limitations, this could be done rarely.

Eventually, all the problems with the vehicles combining and powering the Sentai were solved and it was time to face another problem: mobility. In order to allow the Mecha to defend all of Ulthuan, the vehicles in their combined form would use Wave Force thrusters similar to those found on the Mushai to hover from point to point along the islands of Ulthuan.

Initially combined and armed with a tank cannon from the tsunami on the battlefield, the Sentai can also acquire new weapons in a spectacular way. After targeting an opponent, the Sentai charges forward, activating the shield from the Tedate to protect it. Smashing into the enemy unit, it scans its foe for new weapons and after it's done, it uses the Giga Fortress head to blast the enemy at point-blank range. With all the technical problems solved, the final version of the Sentai was presented to the Emperor and his son. While the Emperor was skeptical of the design until he saw its combat effectiveness, Prince Tatsu instantly fell in love with the Sentai because of him being a long-time fan of Super Morphing Sentai From Outer Space, and was actually one of the supporters that led to the show's revival.

Finally, the Sentai was accepted, however, because of the complex nature of the Sentai, only a handful of the custom-made units that transformed into it could be built. As a result, only the best commanders are allowed to have such a machine and despite commanding safely from the communications suites at headquarters, most Commanders typically take to the battle personally inside the Sentai, leading from the front and charging in to do battle with the new heavy mech.
