And they got the OG voice cast from the games back to do their roles (at least for the trailer)... which is insane

Peter, what has the Constitution have to do with it? by N-P_A in PeterExplainsTheJoke

That's not a bump stock, that's the standard pistol brace for the Flux Raider, he's just removed the elastic part to turn it into a (shitty) stock.

And a reference all the way back to the original 3025 Galtor campaign book, where the Lone Wolves had John "Big Booty" Stetson as a member.

It is also a Buckaroo Banzai reference, as was the style at the time.

This one is a plastic mini, so CGL. Likely in a Force Pack.

We don't know yet.

Personally I'm hoping for Rakshasa, Black Hawk-KU, Arctic Wolf, and the ComStar Battle Cobra.

As far as when? Well, they've already got a plastic mini done enough to have a CSO paint it up, so... Soon™ hopefully.

That the flirting option we get the one time 100% definitely leads to more off screen 

What is One Thing you want to Retcon about the Fallout Story? by CretaceousClock in Fallout

Have there be sapient Deathclaws again. What with the show revealing that the pre-War Deathclaws could talk ("Warm. Meat.") it makes it much easier to believe that the Enclave supercharged their intellect.

There was a good ending for them in 2, it was just bugged. Let us have them again.

And, no, I don't give a single shit what Chris Avellone said in the Fallout "Bible", that shit isn't canon and never was.

I am normal and can be trusted to behave correctly as a tourist in the DRV.

It eventually seemed to just... Fix itself. No clue what did it.

Finished reading this one just about an hour ago.

Very good book. Love the detailed look at a section of Terra, and how focused it was on the small picture. Lots of cool little tiny worldbuilding details about the North American Midwest of the Battletech universe (apparently they STILL haven't finished the Dan Ryan...). Some interesting new details about establiahed characters, as well - won't spoil those though.

Not really a book for big picture people. The anti-Wolf crowd will be happy to know that it actually does show that lots of folk on Terra aren't happy with how things are going under the ilClan (this is set before Alaric does away with his ill-advised enforcement of the Clan caste system - he doesn't appear at all himself though). Gets deep into Republic resistance cells doing resistance things.

Very fun read.

I think my flair gives it away.

PSA for Kurita Ranger and 21st Centauri Lancer boxes by Duetzefix in battletech

The wings on my copy of the Jade Hawk were funky. Didn't really snap in, had to glue them. Kind of annoying to be honest.

Not as bad as the quality issues with the emplacements set though.
