   1.  Briefing - FAQ for blading designs.  I'll post anyone's design on here,
so just e-mail me with your design, and make sure to tell me it's for the
FAQ.  Please use my key, it's much easier to apply then.  Some of them are
overweight, and may not work so well with non-plus.  These may contain secret
parts.

Comment:        The middle-weight that made me find a new passion in
middle-weights.  Probably the best one I pilot with, but everyone pilots
differently, so you may not be able to use him the way he was intended to
be.  Good AC nonetheless.

Comment:        The AC that I made many changes to over the years.  He used to
be much lighter.  My oldest AC, so he's been around for quite awhile, but
he still keeps up with the new creations

Comment:        My struggle for finding a decent AC with the ELS-7880 has created
this...thing.  I like him, mostly because he's fairly mobile with good defense.
I just can't seem to make Moonlight work with him, so with the strongest he'll
be.

Comment:        One of the latest installments in my collection.  Nothing really
special about him.  With the right colors, he can look pretty good.  He also
fights decently for a downward hacker.

Comment:        My beefed up version of Rayo.  I kept the good speed, but I
increased his defense slightly.  Probably too quick for it's own good though.

Comment:        The only reason I kept this thing is because he killed the first
Nine-ball in three hits.  He hasn't done it since, but he can usually do it
in five.

Comment:        My recent favorite.  Something about his style of fighting fits
well with the way I pilot.  You can have your own opinion.

Comment:        Somewhat similar in weight to Mage, but his mobility in the air
is excellent.  Due to his legs, he can cut through the air like a chainsaw
through butter.

Comment:        Named after the name I call my cat by.  Her real name's Penny,
but that isn't a good name for an AC, in my opinion (then again, neither is
Baby Kitty).

make him extra powerful.


8.      Other Things

My e-mail is [email protected] .  You can e-mail me with any suggestions,
designs, questions, or even just for someone to talk about armored core.


Special Thanks:

[email protected] - only other person around here that plays AC.
Don't know what I'd be doing if he wasn't around.  He also contributed the
ACs made by Bolt.

www.gamefaqs.com - great site for letting me put this filth on their site.
I think they have some good stuff here and there. (they have lots of great
faqs)

My family for buying me the computer I needed to type this thing.


One last thing.  If you want to post this FAQ elsewhere, please e-mail me
with the link to your site and I'll probably approve of it.  I'll write you
back and then we'll have milk.  (1/19/2002 3:07 AM)
