Haha Butte Hold!
>>97394321What's the tank in the foreground meant to be? Alicorn?
>>97394349I think its a Schrek.
>>97394363Yeah... I can see it now.
Happy Sunday, snowed in here South East PA area (USA) gonna play some MWO work on building a gun and watch some football despite my team not being in it anymore. Also like any snow day making stew.
>>97393957There seems to be a running gag of them joining the marines?
>>97391072>>97391234I GM 2e, simple but my favorite.
People in my LGS are starting to pick up Battletech-they even got their own discord channel now. Great sucess!What's the faction I could play with the least mechs in it?
>>97394841Only irrelevant periphery and deep periphery powers have a focus on non-mechs.The outworlds alliance focuses on ASF but they were conquered by clanners. The major periphery states are less mechcentric due to being poor rather than intention.Hell's horses to a degree. Mechwarriors are still prized above all but they did go as far as to create an entire phenotype for tank crews in the dark age.
>>97394841If you want to play a major house cappies are big in Combined armsA clan HH's like vee's.Prates will be least mech having tho.
>>97394841>they even got their own discord channel now.Sorry to hear your local area is overrun with trannies, anon. Hopefully once Trump declares the insurrection act and purging them becomes legal, you can clean them out and set up a good gaming community in place of your current predicament. Sending you hopeful vibes.
In terms of color scheme/visual, was there anything that differentiated SLDF Regular and Royal? Other than the Blackwatch tartan
>>97395028The logo on the mechs. No difference in color except the color of pants you'd be wearing if facing against Royals.
Never forget anons, the fabled AC20 headshot can save you from any foe, even if you’re in a centurion with two armorless legs facing down a star league pillager. Yesterdays game was wild.
>>97395071Mad true anon, do tell the story please. I mean as details.
When you play a Battletech game, be it the PC game, Mechwarrior, MegaMek, or table-top, do you play any music? Do you have a set idea for how that music should be?
Opinions on the wakazashi? How much of a unicorn is it by revival?
>>97395083My local store group has been running this pseudo campaign where we play a match in every era. This was the first succession war, I had missed the star league matches. Opponent had this horrific Gauss rifle pillager and a wasp and I pulled up with a grasshopper, centurion and ostscout, all base 3rd succession war models>win first initiative, pick home edge>realize opponent gets the edge with level 3 sniper roost and cover>fuck I’m a retard>spend the first four turns crawling across the single hex map getting my ass reamed by gauss>lose almost every initiative>centurion loses both legs of armor, nearly takes a game ending leg crit>this thing is slow as shit and I’m certain now I will lose once he starts shooting the grasshopper who is also missing every shot>ostscout engaged in 1:1 duel with the wasp>5/3 pilot with only a medium laser? No problem, it’s Turn A Gundam time>kick and punch the wasp and pray I can at least destroy one mech>opportunity presents itself for centurion to take a pot shot at wasp>deleted>finally crawl up to the pillager, I have it outnumbered 3:1 but it can probably destroy two of my mechs in the next two turns>pray and fire the centurions likely last chance for an AC20 shot,>roll 11>roll 12Never doubt the retard power of a big gun
>>97395447Great story, as you said nothing tops a big bang.Ostscout v wasp oh that hurt to read.
>>97395351Unless youre doing a historical in the homeworlds your only option is a Scorp seeker star and even then its a stretch. Kinda sucks it looks like a mean design to go up against, although visually it looks like someone tried to make.an Exterminator look cool
>>9739529250% Industrial, 50% mecha anime ost.
>>97394321i had the artist use this picture i took as inspiration and reference though i did have them change one of the kit foxes to a summoner
Local group is starting an Aces campaign. I can't devote the time between learning to sonar people's organs and don't want to play Alpha Strike anyway. Hoping that they get us Classic rules in the next box.>>97395292Normally I'm a classic rock and heavy metal enjoyer, but Battletech demands electronic music. Although the orchestral approach in HBS Tech worked well with the tone.

>>97395447>My local store group has been running this pseudo campaign where we play a match in every era. This was the first succession war, I had missed the star league matches....Wait a minute... My group was doing "Through the Eras" this week, Early Succession Wars.......WHICH ROB ARE YOU?!?!
>>97395631Not him, but I am also a Rob. And I know there's at least one other Rob who posts in this thread. Is it the default name for Battletech players?
>>97395543>He doesn't think the Exterminator looks cool.Point at him and laugh.
>>97395651I think we've got at least two in my group...
>>97395671Clearly we need to gather all the Robs who play battletech and hold a bloodname trial
All Rob's are obligated to pilot a Highlander in this trial.
>>97395729REMEMBER NO BRIDGE
>>97395351"Nigga did I just catch you having fun" the mech. It's like a slightly less cheesed hellstar
What would be a fun Wobbie lance to make for this? Same question for Comstar.
>>973961976500 BV Jihad era WoB? If I wasn't about to go to work I'd make one just to see. Blake be praised.
