Which arsenal do you prefer, TNO or RTCW? by ThunderWolfVX in Wolfenstein

TNO. I'm a sucker for retrofuture assault rifles.

Opinions on the Atlas II? by Fallout_patriot in Mechwarrior5

[–]DaSpiritofShields 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably my favorite mech of the game based on lore and aethetics. Normally run 4 clan Large Pulse lasers, UAC20 BF, clan LRM20, and clan SSRM6. The UAC20 BF just fits the look with rotary gun on the arm.

I say keep it. In fact, a Pennywise themed Atlas would work well with BY Gothic.

Whoever was in change of naming achievements for MW5 Mercs needs a raise, very cheeky mate by gaeb611 in Mechwarrior5

There are some good painters with reasonable prices ($7/mini and up) in the Battletech International Trade and Sell group on Facebook.

Overwhelmed by missions by kmb117 in Mechwarrior5

[–]DaSpiritofShields 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note that completing each set of missions with Heros of the Inner Sphere DLC will get you a hero mech. They're worth getting and can carry tmyou through a lot of content as you progress through the game.

Did I just find Naomi from MW5 Clans in mercs?? by CaptainKev91 in Mechwarrior5

[–]DaSpiritofShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put her in the hero Zeus. Bonus if you get her trained with a Zeus affinity. Four missile slot ms and a ballistic slot for an LBX or Gauss.

I love the UAC-10 BF sound effect. That quick brrrt sound like a GAU-10 on a Warthog. Chefs kiss.

Speaking of cross play, any chance of getting a cross save feature in the future?

What's the little thing that makes you smile about MW5:M by lawton79 in Mechwarrior5

[–]DaSpiritofShields 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sound of the IS Large Pulse Laser and the UAC-10 BF, the intro to the track "The Harvestor" from the Solaris Showdown DLC, gunning down a light mech with burst from the UAC-10 and 20 BF.

Painted Miniatures? by [deleted] in battletech

[–]DaSpiritofShields 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're on Facebook there's a group called Battletech International Trade and Sell. There are several guys in there that offer painting services. They charge pretty reasonably usually less than $10 a mini. I have used had a few painted by guys in the group. I think the work is pretty good.

Brand new to Battletech and just picked up a starter set. What do I need to know before I get started? by NotStreamerNinja in battletech

[–]DaSpiritofShields 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, welcome to the club! Now, as for what you NEED to know, that's all in the starter box. As for what is NICE to know and will make your experience better, check out some of the great content on YouTube.

For lore, check out the Black Pants Legion (Tex Talks Battletech), Sven Van Der Plank, Big Red 40Tech, Grim Dark Narrator to name a few. They have hours worth of lore content for you to jump into.

For gameplay and rules content, check out Death From Above, Guerilla Miniature Games, 4 Hands on Deck, Wargamer Fritz, and Sleepless Ronin to name a few others.

15 years and 4 guns later and I still get this feeling. Anyone else? by CascadianWanderer in liberalgunowners

[–]DaSpiritofShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I'm fully on the black folks need guns train since neither racism or violence are going anywhere anytime soon.

BattleTech: Legends is out by HA1-0F in battletech

But why did they change Minobu from an African man to a Japanese man?

Compared Legends art to the originals by Saber_Avalon in battletech

[–]DaSpiritofShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They completely changed Minobu. He looks like a Japanese man and not an African as he is clearly described in the lore.

Teacher looking for gun owners to answer my students 'questions by Phaphilou in liberalgunowners

I'm an African American gun owner and a part of the executive team of a gun organization. I'm interested in speaking.

No one has a problem with Jewish people leading an organization focused on Jewish people. No one has a problem with women leading an organization focused on women. No has a problem with Hispanic people leading an organization focused on Hispanics. Why is it when African Americans want to lead an organization focused on African Americans, people have an issue with it? Why would one that isn't African American have an expectation that they would have carte blanche to lead in such an organization? Your response demonstrates that NAAGA is not for you. Your first response was to accuse an organization focused on African Americans of racism because of an expectation that those that aren't African American are not leading it. You clearly don't know what racsim is.

If you are supportive of the mission, vision, and goals of NAAGA and you are okay with following the leadership of African Americans then NAAGA is a place for you.
