Hm... my favorite would be Kim from the original Macross version, where her name was Kim Kabirov. She was the only one of the trio who stayed in the service, and made quite a name for herself there after Megaroad-01 left.

Her surname was Kabirov in the original... she was the token Russian. 's a shame she was the only one not to have any kids, though I suppose Shammy (RT: Sammy) made up the difference by having eleven.

They aren't "Bridge Bunnies", which refers to enlisted rating techs on the bridge. Besides, the voting for Claudia would be waaaaaaaaay over the top. I like a lady who will butt heads with me. I might even make several accounts just to vote her into the win. :fl:

Well... "enlisted" was never part of the usual definition of "bridge bunny", just that they're the female bridge operators who practically live on the bridge. That means Claudia, Misa/Lisa, and the others are bridge bunnies. (Misa and Claudia are the TVTropes pic for that trope.)

If we're only counting enlisted crew, none of them are elligible for consideration... Vanessa, Kim, and Shammy/Sammy (the terrible trio...) were all commissioned officers. In the original, all five bridge bunnies were First or Second Lieutenants.

I have to go with Sammie on this one, since my first Robotech character ended up married to her (there were some changes to the timeline as happens in RPG's). Eventually she ended up in Lisa's position on the Ikazutchi carrier that we were on when we left with the REF. I was the CAG on the ship.

Always wanted to replace that with something a bit more salty, as befits a naval officer.

It has been over 20 years. A lot of the details are sketchy, but most of the major events stayed the same. It was small things that we made changes to, like Sammie living. I guess it wasn't so much that we changed events, but added some things to the existing timeline. We stole a Zentraedi scout ship and used it to ram another ship that was attacking the SDF-1. I fought Khyron when he invaded the SDF-1 and attacked Macross City and I ended up in a coma when I took a missile strike that was heading for a hospital, where Sammie was giving birth to our first child. Eventually we ended up as part of the REF though the game did not last much beyond that.
