Hello! We noticed in your profile section that his mech looks like a dinosaur so we hope you enjoy this T-Rex!

There is a size limit, the eggs cap out at 25 meters tall (their size is quite variable, that's the thing about magical eggs!) Looking up the specifications for your character's Geno Saurer (which we presume would be the one you'd want to bring along?) we see that it just slides in under our requirement (23 meters!) and so would be allowed!

However: if you opt to bring the Zoid in, we do have a caveat for you. Given the nature of the game and the survivalist themes, as well as the harsh environment in which the PCs find themselves, there would be very limited opportunities for refueling — fuel cells would need to be taken from the Adamant's stores (which are not limitless!) and any repairs would need to be done using scavenged materials, which the NPCs may be unhappy about as they may see it as resource hoarding. Acid rain would still degrade the Zoid, and there is no guarantee it would be usable indefinitely as a result. We may also approach you at points to collaborate for ways that it could be unavailable for certain events where it may provide an unfair advantage in a given situation. While we would not take it offline as part of our setting development without your involvement as a player, we would likely also plan a timeline of resource availability out so that you know exactly how long we would expect repairs to be able to be made and general maintenance and upkeep to be done.

While that may sound scary — we have discussed it among the mod-team — and if you were willing to put in for AC bonuses and request shipments of the Zoid-material, spare parts or fuel we would be willing to extend this timeline in accordance with those arrivals. Without AC bonuses, we would expect Jamie would run out of resources to repair it or fuel it within roughly six months of his arrival.

Whew! We're sorry this got a little long-winded, but we wanted to cover all the possibilities going forward. Thank you for your question, and we hope this answers it satisfactorily!
