Dammit Setsuna, I though I told you not to use Trans-Am.
This article, How to make a custom unit, is currently under active construction.


This page is a guide on how to make custom units, it is not meant to be copied, pasted and filled in. For creating a page please read through the guide.

The Infobox Template

There are two ways of building template:Mobile Suit Infobox/2, using the visual mode template that come with the wizard, or copying and pasting the coding on the template page. If using visual mode a box appears per field for you to fill in, both here and on Template:Mobile Suit Infobox/2 there are explanations on what to fill in and how to do so.

{{Template:Mobile Suit Infobox/2
|image =
|imagetab = 

Image of the unit, uses [[File: |300px]]
For example one of my suits would be

|image = [[File:RGM-79(GRS)CHB GM Broadstriker.jpg|300px]]
|imagetab = Front

All files are to be resized to 300 pixels and to be uploaded to the site, not "fetched" from another site (placing a link that goes out from the wikia).

|image =[[File:VMS-15 Realdo.jpg|300px]]
|imagetab = MS Mode
|image2 = [[File:VMS-15 Realdo Flight Mode.jpg|300px]]
|imagetab2 = Flight Mode

If the unit has multiple images both can be placed in the box by using this style.

|name =

The name of the suit, contains the full name (model number too).

|name = RGM-79(GRS)/CHB GM Broadstriker

If you are using a version of a mass produced suit and have not changed the name it will be changed to a variant involving the pilot's name so as not to cause identity conflicts.

|name = PS-X/1/NK Stinger Nathan Kron Custom

The standard option is to add the pilots initials at the end of the model number after a / and adding part of their name followed by "custom".
