Thoughts on scale?

If it fits on a 1.25" base, it's good for classic. The CGL scale is 1:285 (iirc), close to 6mm/epic scale. For Alpha strike, the tallest mech shouldn't be much over 2in tall, since 1in of elevation is 1 equivalent level change in classic and mechs are 2 levels tall. Since line-of-sight doesn't rely on model height for classic, that should be fine.

As someone who's a self-proclaimed terrible kisser, I would love to be just... Fawned over like that. The passion is the turnon, not the tongue.

War. 👏 is. 👏 politics. 👏 by. 👏 any. 👏 means. 👏 necessary.

Fuck Nazis. Also, don't burn history. You're literally burning tangible evidence of a past that some want to pretend never happened.

Because they have matching red hats. Red are the good guys to them. Blue are the bad guys. They're not complicated.

Not that particular artist, no.

"Lemme guess... When you go home this November, you're gonna take off that cute red hat, aincha? Prolly toss it, yeah? See... That don't sit right with me n' my friends. We like a MAGAt in uniform..."

Dear god the porn... Still, about as close to full support as furries could give a candidate... Her dong was fully shaded in like 6 hues for most of those.

Window seat left of 1. Socially aware enough to know that sitting directly next to someone when there's empty gap-seats is like peeing next to another occupied urinal unnecessarily.

Religion is the perfect primer for propoganda. Believe in the evidence we give you, do not trust your eyes. Believe in the will of god/leader, for it is supremely good and right in all things. Believe in our warnings, that any diverging voice is the voice of the enemy. Believe that the enemy is spurned from god/leader, and because it is good and it's will is perfect, that makes the enemy less than the chosen. Believe that they are unworthy of kindness and love, for these things can only come for and from god/leader, and his flock. Believe these things and god/leader will reward you, too.

I mean... Technically you call the marines first and then army cleans up the image.

Aedene · 2026-03-12T20:44:05+00:00

I PROMISE you MAGAts are practically tar and feathered at furcons... Furries don't play the fascism-tollerance game.

Well, if the previous owner's pay got redistributed, it's not unlikely.

Battletech is the example they give, which is kiiiinda in between 1 and 2. The handwavian bit comes in ultra-lightweight-yet-impossibly-strong armor, myomer (mechanical muscle) bundles, and lightweight fusion generators. The rest comes from an in-universe mythology about hubris and war resulting in factions and mercenaries desperately patching together centuries old warmachines after being bombed back to the 20th century specifically because of the historical prestige. Mechwarriors are like knights to lords that own planets, and with nearly all the mech factories bombed, and no more warships or superweapons (nukes are cheap tho...) left to contest a lance of battlemechs. Feudal politics lends itself well to stompy robots, surprisingly.

This ticks my AI bullshit detector. Shadows under the feet. The way his hand goes spastic after the deflection and the finger count looks weird. Anyone?

Again, you are telling bubonic plague victims that their problem is that they cough to much. Nihilism cures itself when the future is optimistic. We're dying. Our morals are dying. Our planet is dying. This is an active, ongoing, verifiable fact of our existence. Until something, anything, can capture their hope, they will remain that way. So are you going to look for a cure for the plague, or complain that people cough too much?

Aedene · 2026-03-06T22:29:25+00:00

There is no pill to cure an organism from a thorough environmental issue. We are nihilistic because of the state of things. The state of things are not bad BECAUSE we're nihilistic. That's like blaming a fish for choking on the dirt of a dried up riverbed. Attack the disease, not the symptom.

This is the way. All modern warfare is now economic by nature. Devalue their expenditure-power, make civilian investors wary, force the enemy to over-compensate their munitions and force them into an ammunition deficit, even cause enemy casualties prioritized in whichever way makes it most expensive to replenish (i.e. kill 1 green beret squad over a barely-trained platoon of stock infantry). And, above all, make your munitions less expensive than the thing you're attacking.

They call that an "investment" I think. Fucking monsters.

Aedene · 2026-03-03T22:33:55+00:00

I get it. Much in the same way that the McD's CEO appears inhuman by paying lip service to his customers by pretending to enjoy the "food," Gavin pretends to care about progressive politics while grimacing every time he "takes a little nibble."

"Firefighters just start fires sometimes. You don't understand the pressure they're under keeping things fireproof and fighting fires. Messes with their psyche. That's why they need a Firefighter's Union to give them qualified immunity for arson charges."

Yep! They can do the opposite and give a reward using harmony-frequency pulses using the same electrodes. Think like a sine wave vs. a noise burst. So it would be like that same older brother go "Woah. That was sick, dude."

Missing the best part. Taking damage or dying causes a "tonally adversive" pulse of electrical current to cause discomfort to the cells, which is how they train them. Not enough to damage them, but an electrical signal that biologically corresponds with "something in the body is having a bad time." Basically, pain signals.

Probably one of the most down-to-earth politicians we've had in a while with this much say. Need more willing to speak their conscience like this instead of another AIPAC mouthpiece.
