Jovian Chronicles
Jovian Chronicles is a science fiction RPG published by Dream Pod 9 which tells the tale of a time in which Mankind has expanded into and settled the solar system, but all is not peaceful as the various colonial states vie for independance and/or power. (Trivia: It was originally published as two sourcebooks for the Mekton anime/mecha RPG, the "green" books, to provide a campaign world with a distinctly Mobile Suit Gundam feel. It has now been re-released, and expanded greatly, as a stand-alone RPG, the "white" books, using DP9's silhouette RPG system.)

NMMB "Net Mekton Mecha Book" Archives
The Net Mekton Mecha Books are compilations of mecha designs by various authors, for use in the Mekton anime/mecha RPG. (Note: I didn't compile any of these, but I've got them archived here to keep them from disappearing, because even though they're getting old they're still a great Mekton resource, not to mention being a nice bit of anime/mecha RPG history on the 'Net.)- Complete NMMB Archives [v1.0 - v7.1] (ZIP archive) [780 KiB]
