Is there a system that can be used for running a Front Mission RPG?
I'll admit up front this is mostly idle curiosity on my part.

Chrome Hounds, or if you want to go less finnicky, Strike!, or if you can't divorce yourself from d20, 4e.

Have you thought of the setting? What would the story be?
If I was patient enough to sit my ass down and digest the book, I might could recommend Gurps Mechs.
But lay that story on me, alright? I've thought about how cool Front Mission would be, but I couldn't think of a good story.

Like I said, this is currently just idle curiosity.
I'm thinking about maybe running it sometime, and figure having a system to use is the first step.

Heavy Gear, the game you are looking for is Heavy Gear / the Silhouette system.

When I was playing Front Mission 4, I was constantly thinking to myself "Wow, this plays like a slightly watered down, Japanified version of Battletech"
Hit location system, emphasis on positioning, Robots with guns?
Not bringing up the customization system, but tread carefully with that. It's kind of a slippery slope carte-blanche for powergamers.
Pulp action mech or something more grim?
How does Front Mission usually go?
>Someone gets attacked
>Don't know who attacked
>Find out who attacked
>Players put on task force to bring in obscure faction noone has time for
>Bad guy had more funding than originally planned
>Save world from new weapon prototype
Like that? Suggestions?

Front Mission is "Votoms: The Game" and Heavy Gear is "Votoms: The RPG".

Well, the first Battletech-like games are from Japan. But I think it takes more from JRPGs than anything else.
Welp, now I gotta play FM4 again. Thanks a lot OP

I have to refrain from playing FF7. Watching Tifa in all her battle-graphic glory just makes me lose all self- control. I don't know what I'm going to do now that the remake is coming out.
