What mechs would House Porchitsu run?

>the guy saying the FASA/fanpro era was better in the last thread>heres your art bro
>>94291641Humans were never a strong suit.Even today, with the modern clanner art making them all look like crack addicts.
>>94291641Looking about as eugenic as any other spheroid faction, what's the problem?
>>94291692when ROM vanishedwhen the inner sphere couldn't hold them backthe unsung heroes of times long past returned to do what they do best
HONOR THE DRAGON!!
>>94291716it is now canon that turtle bay was justified
With no one to defend Butte Hold I have seized it for this thread!
>>94291721So was Kentares, then.
I really want to cut the tbolt's right arm off and put either the highlander or the victor right arm on.
>>94291753It's always justified to kill enemies of the Dragon such as Davions,, Outworlders, Clanners, Orphans, Lyrans, and Mercenaries. >>94291788Do it and post results
>>94291788But Thud is perfect, why mutilate him?
>>94291829All three are perfect. It's an intrusive thought I'll probably never act on.
>>94291839IMO Victor could use some help
Jesus, that was a miserable 2 nights of work. I barely got 7 hours of painting time in over 2 nights. That's horseshit.Anyway, reinforcement Falcons for my existing Delta Galaxy cluster are done. I took this picture and also took it with the phone flipped, so ONE of these goddamn photos will be right side up this time.>Not super happy with the paint jobs, but I need them to be a close match to the existing Jade Falcon minis I painted in 2007 using Citadel Goblin and Scorpion Green; formulations which no longer exist.
>>94291890>I need them to be a close match to the existing Jade Falcon minis I painted in 2007it's been 17 years, the accident wasn't your fault, please, it's time to move on
>>94291890Sounds like my last couple of work nights. Managed to get the washwork done on Arkab Legion and Gray Death Legion so they'll be ready for canopy paint once my pigments arrive from Spain, and touchups done on Team Banzai (I want to throat-punch Shimmy for the Battlemaster's cockpit design, that little dividing band has been my nemesis), but I didn't do shit with my Steel Vipers or any of the vehicles from the Mercs kickstarter, just not enough sit-down time for them. Maybe tomorrow night will afford for more substantial time at the desk.
Yeah i smell like unfiltered shit what of it!
>>94292083Genyosha getting the job done.
>A weapon to surpass Battle 'Mech
>>94292083wolcott?
>>94292111Nice of them to make the legs digitigrade to avoid CGL throwing a bitch fit.
>>94292111
>>94292111eerily familiar
>Hey, this Mech has a C3 boosted slave, do you mind if I swap that out for a regular C3 slave, an ECM suite, and a small laser? It's an Omni, so it's a quick swapWhat's your response here
>>94292173If it's not a canon fit, then we're playing with customs and I'd like to tweak one of mine as well. If you'll agree to that, it's all gravy.
>>94292182Sounds good, what are you running?
>>94291577What is the correct mindset to enjoy battletech with? My friend keeps shilling it as gritty, well written space drama but whenever I read the lore it seems like a universe where everyone is a deranged clue sniffer starting wars for petty reasons and thats the fun. I'm leaning towards viewing it like a wacky cartoon, what is the correct way to view the setting and franchise.
>>94292190RAC-5s on the Nightstar for a giggle. It's more the principle of the thing than any specific strategy.
What Star League mechs do you think deserved a SW downgrade variant but don't canonically have one? I did a 4/6/4 Starslayer, it actually ended up better protected than the OG, though heat management was toasty.
So I want to try using the Kintaro when it comes out, but apparently there aren't a lot of mechs with NARC-cappable LRM/SRM ammo equipped canonically. Is it like other special ammo (Inferno, Precision, etc) that you can freely swap with regular ammo?Also, what if I want to swap a ton of LBX solid with cluster, or vice versa? Is it free?
>>94292220>What is the correct mindset to enjoy battletech withThe correct answer is "Semper Gumby". There is no single viewpoint in the setting** that is correct for all games and all players, and never will be. Don't try to find one. Be flexible, run a game that highlights what you like, and then play in a game that highlights what your buddy likes, and do both with good grace.>**There *are* thematic boundaries in BattleTech that shouldn't be crossed, and if you're in a group with someone who insists on crossing them, you're gonna have a bad time. As a rule, if the other person says they can only enjoy the setting if they have to change a foundational aspect of it, then they are not viewing the setting the correct way.
>>94292303It costs BV but you don't have to ask your opponent's permission.
>>94291890>Still have some Goblin Green, even some old Ral Partha paints I've kept alive.It's been 80 years.hpgThe formulation you're using actually looks close to the old official 90's Jade Falcon paint set.
>>94292349So I just need to calculate BV and adjust? Cool.
>>94291890What job lets you do things that aren't work for 1/3rd of the time you're at work? Asking for a friend (me) so I can apply for it.
