the yellow paintjob on my locust was a bust, its absolutely garishits also been hit with the THIN YOUR PAINTS demon, so might as well scrub itwhat color should it be now?thinking either grey like an AT-ST or all-white like an ipod-mech, either way its evilor just embrace the garishness and keep it yellow or a similiarly dumb scheme like pink?

>>98420853base coating pink and then using a contrast/speedpaint/whatever paint on top works well for yellow stuffI think yellow and white are the worst colors to paint on minis
>>98420821>you dumb fucksSays the man who didn't even add a thread title.
>>98421114I wouldn't have had to phonepost a new thread and forget about the title if you dumb faggots had done a proper job in the bloody first place. Be less shit next time.
What's a mech you just like for some reason or another. Pic related Ostroc is a fun fella to play with
>>98421222Griffin. Literally the best Mech in the game. There's nothing you can do where taking a Griffin instead of any other medium Mech isn't a clear upgrade. Other mediums shouldn't even exist.
>>98421222Wraith
>>98421241Ahem
>>98421222the shadwohawk, because dougram is coolalso because shoulder guns are cool
>>98421241Griffin isn't even the best introtech 55 tonner
>>98421222The Raven is cute! I also like the idea of support mecha and wish they had more useful stuff to do.
the clans should modify captured wolverines with an endo-steel skeleton and arm them with the kontios claws
>>98421222But anon, thats an Ostsol.Though I agree, Ostrocs are cool. Especially the old sculpt
>>98421312Dezgra build philosophy
>>98421222Osts are a fucking nightmare to kill when playing with quirks. I have grown to respect them heavily.>>98421241I see members of the Griffin Consortium are posting already.>>98421306Raven looks great but frankly is a bit shit. There's a few mechs that do its job better.>>98421312They should modify the Wolverine by turning it into scrap metal, the only true good modification for the Wolverine!
>>98421222I end up going back to the Gladiator a lot, I genuinely just think it's near, and I really hate it's basically extinct for most of the lore. Close second is the Phoenix Hawk.
>>98420853Get a Chameleon, Stinger and another common trainer mech and paint them the same as a training cadre. Yellow is a pretty common color for training vehicles.
>>98421262I see you are a /m/an of culture.
>>98421474>mechwarrior specializing in mock battles>technically zero kills in his entire career, but has fought against nearly every possible combination of battlemechs and mechwarriors in every possible environment and from every faction
>>98421477ironically, my actual shadowhawk is a guncannon instead of dougram
>>98421495meant GM-cannon, not guncannon
>>984214673R and 4R have been retconned to still be around even during late Succession Wars. Mainly as merc and militia unit.
>>98421197>Fucks up in the dumbest way possible>Be less shit next timeIronic
Should I expand AGOAC with the minis from the Alpha Strike box, or wait for the new core set?
>>98421222The No-Dachi has been my favourite Battletech Mech design since I first got into the game. I fucking adore this guy and he's present in every army I own. Here's my 52nd Shadow Division No-Dachi battling the Marian Hegemony's 1st Legio :)
>>98421535Depends on the price. If you can get it cheap then the box comes with a great set of minis.
>>98421539that is ironman
>>98421241>Griffin. Literally the best Mech in the game.BITCH FUCK YOU
and so it begins!
Funny how Wolverine fans always come out of the floorboards to defend their fav machine the instant it is criticised. Almost like they know they've made a terrible choice and are desperate to deny this fact :?
>>98421584I've never seen a Wolverine fan constantly feel the need to share their like of the mech. Griffin fans on the other hand can't seem to go five minutes without telling everyone else around them that they love the Griffin.
>>98421626i have a griffin, but only because it came in the starter seti have 4 locusts, though
>Commando>Wasp>Flea>Locust Best Scout Lance
>>98421539I remember you talking about this campaign, was fun keeping up with the battle reports as you posted them.
>>98421258I want to like the Hunchback, but honestly it just feels like everything it does could be done better by something else. If you want a cheap large caliber AC platform there are Urbies and Hetzers and its lack of jump jets really hurts it in the environments where it should be the most useful. On the flip side, if you want something that can endure close range slug fests, you're better off with a heavy or assault.
>>98421560>Griffin>Lower damage output>Massive minimum range on its missiles>Can't fire all weapons without building up heat>No Ballistic weapons so you know its users are bitches>Wolverine>More total damage output>SRM 6 can dump at point blank range>Can fire weapons all day>AC/5 so you know it's a mech for a badassTruth be told though I just hate LRMs, so a mech where potentially half your damage comes from them is shit to me.
>>98420821It's back uphttps://battletech.com/

>>98421818>Worse, the Clan Star League-larpersWatch that fucking tongue, Freebirth!
>>98421840Commanding General Kerensky has said you cannot say that anymore.
>>98421732The difference between a hunchback and an urbanmech is the hunchback has just barely about everything it needs to do its job and delivers it at a reasonable price. The urbanmech strips several vital job-doing elements and delivers no results at low prices. The urbanmech is not cheap, it is actually very expensive for a paperweight.
>>98421814>featured products>House Kurita Command LanceI am taking this as honoring the dragon!
>>98421495Who gave the shadow hawk yaoi hands?
>>98421732Urbanmechs are abysmal dogshit, unless your opponent walks right into you they will do nothing all game, and if you have an opponent that makes that mistake you were probably destined to win that match anyway.
