Whats this for? I was thinking of a X-over bet Robotech and Patlabor.
No SDF-1 nor SDF-3 wont defold at the Patlabor dimension. Just a
veteran of the Global Civil War and his Veritech...

Heh. "I remember the good old days when all we had to worry about was 
some idiot in a construction labor getting drunk and tromping through 
the city.... not all these aliens hell-bent on incinerating the 
planet."

This fic is sort of a testing bed for a theory of my. Protoculture in
a non-protoculture world? What will happen? VT's are light years away
from Labor's. And a lot of what if's...

Actually, they're not. The only things that a VT has over a labor are 
metallury and power - metallurgy because the materials used in VTs have 
to be much stronger than those in a labor or comparable size (this is 
debatable, I admit), and power because the protoculture power plant is 
so much smaller in comparison to any equivalent system.

Other than that, the systems wouldn't be all that much different. 
Unless, God forbid, you're planning on including McKinney's dreaded 
"thinking caps"

Also appreciate an URL for more details of Patlabor (Government type;
know terrorist groups the MP's have encountered; etc) 

Can't help with the Patlabor sites, but have you checked out the 
Robotech Reference Guide (formerly known as the Robotech Technical 
Files)?
