 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A series of Science Fiction light novels by Haruka Takachiho, with illustrations by Yasuhiko Yoshikazu, initially published in 1977.Beginning in the year 2160, the stories follow the adventures of members of "Crusher Conference", an organization of people who perform dangerous tasks for a fee.The series was adapted into a short (1 volume) manga series (illustrated by Fujihiko Hosono) in 1979, an animated film released in 1983, and two OVA short features released in 1989. The manga was published in English by Studio Ironcat in 2000, and the anime was released in English by Animeigo in 1997note sources are unclear, but maybe the English-subtitled version didn't arrive until 2000. (There was also a heavily-cut dub-only version of the movie released in 1988, titled Crushers, by Jim Terry Productionsnote the same Jim Terry who earlier had produced Force Five.) The light novels remain untranslated.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Like Marcoss and Dougram, the anime also made a few contributions to Battletech. These are much less well known due to mostly not being Humongous Mecha.

 Asteroid Miners: The first OVA, The Ice Prison, involves an ice asteroid that was placed in orbit around a planet and used as a Hellhole Prison for political dissidents (and when the local President Evil decided it was best to get rid of them, his government faked an accident that turned the asteroid's orbit fatally unstable to justify blowing it to smithereens). Joe mentions in passing while his Crusher team tries to figure out how to fix the asteroid's orbit that this kind of mining is an occasional step for terraforming planets.
