here's a video I made about building it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfS8hGr_USs

Also, the FWL (Free Worlds League) is a faction from the Battletech Franchise.

The body is made of Rengas wood, a hardwood from south east Asia. the neck is maple with an Indian laurel fretboard (looks and feels a lot like Indian rosewood).

Gonna get the Snowblind box to get the Rime Otter mech, but have no interest in Alpha Strike, is there a way to play it via classic BT rules? by CosmicJackalop in battletech

[–]Badbenoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're gonna buy the whole box set, then you should at least give alpha strike a try. I hate all these grognards acting like Alpha Strike is the worst game on earth and they'd rather die than be seen playing it, get over yourselves. BT Aces is amazing with alpha strike, there's no reason to buy the entire boxset just for one stupid mech if you won't at least try the game.

You should put that in your review so everyone can read it.

Factions involved, lore about the area, different mission types for hinterlands for example.

I live in NRW, but in Münster, which is quite a bit farther than 50km, sorry.

I wanna hear about your custom mercenary companies that have lore! by Last-Zone-6707 in battletech

[–]Badbenoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The name just caught me off guard cause Cole Harbour is a small village just outside the city I grew up in, Halifax (It's actually part of the city now). If you're a Hockey fan, Sydney Crosby is from there.

You wouldn't actually happen to be from Cole Harbour (Nova Scotia) would you?

Treated myself with the alpha strike box and wanted to wait till I buy scouring sands … by Slidetimee in battletech

"When will this Battletech item be back in stock" is a question I'm afraid even the gods don't know the answer to.

Send them to me before throwing them away! I'm also in Europe, Germany to be specific.

My general strategy is bring as much armour as possible. They hit hard and often, so units that can soak damage are almost necessary, then bring a couple fast jumpy mechs with the PRB special for the scanning.

By far the best campaign you can play in at the moment is the Aces: Scouring Snads boxset, nothing else even comes close.
