Instead of thread-jacking the Ancient/Organization thread, I'm going to make a new one here.

The Rangers Strike card game has a neat organizational system for the different origins of the various Ranger teams. So, the question is, what origin do you prefer? I'll define them all first:



Wild Beast: Powers come from nature, animals, or monsters.
MMPR S1 & 2, WF, DT, JF

Earth Technology: Powers arise from present-day technology made on the Earth.
Zeo, LS, OO

Over-Technology: Powers come from extraterrestrial, other-dimensional, or futuristic sources.
MMAR, Turbo, IS, LG, TF, SPD, RPM

Mystic Arms: Powers come from supernatural or paranormal means, and also includes ninjutsu.
MMPR S3, NS, MF

Shouldn't MMAR be under the same category as MMPR?

edit: Except I didn't read. You didn't come up with the categories. Never mind!

Actually, I think Kakuranger was listed in Mystic Arms. I think it qualifies as OT since they are aliens. It could swing either way. Like Turbo could be Earth Tech.

Both tech ones are better.

Depends. Sometimes they mix together. But I prefer Wild Beasts and Mystic Arms.

And I think this would be more appropriate classification:

WILD BEASTS:
Mighty Morphin S1, Lost Galaxy, Wild Force, Dino Thunder, Jungle Fury

EARTH TECHNOLOGY:
in Space, Lightspeed Rescue, Operation Overdrive

OVER TECHNOLOGY:
Turbo, Time Force, SPD, RPM

MYSTIC ARMS:
Mighty Morphin S2-3, Zeo, Ninja Storm, Mystic Force

Well, after looking at the wikipedia article this only applies to the sentai counterparts, not the PR teams. This could change a lot of the categories.
Example: I think Power Rangers would place Zeo in the Mystic Arms or Wild beasts department.

When you think about, Zeo is kind of a mystic arms because of the origins of the Zeo Crystal.

Wouldn't RPM be earth tech?Dr K tapped into the morphing grid like hartford did in OO.

The engines came from another dimension makeing it overtech for Go-onger.But RPM is earth based.

Not really.We know Zordon and Alpha had a hand in creating the Turbo powers thus seeding it firmly in overtech.

By that same token, since RPM takes place in the future, that places in in overtech as well.

Plus, they were powered by Eltar.
