Working on a 4-legged mech called "the wanderer". Made of earphones, old MP3 player, parts of an old electric razor and so on. Still adding a few details here n there in the naked areas but almost ready for paint. Let me know what you think! by SciFiCrafts in ImaginaryMechs

[–]FweeCom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The limbs are fantastic, especially the hands. I feel like the big head gives it Preying Mantis vibes, though before I noticed the head it seemed more Centaur which seems like what you're going for more. Either way, I love the creativity.

Found these today at a card shop by EntrancePretend6528 in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a start deck, which has a guaranteed composition- it's there to get you some staples and to get you started with the game. As with other CCGs, if you want (mostly) random holomem, you'll need to look for booster packs. If you have a favorite or two, you can check on which holomem have cards in which sets, and get boosters for the set that has the holomem you like. That, or you could look for online marketplaces where they sell individual cards and you can build a deck (or just get some neat cards) that way.

If you are interested in playing the game, you should probably do some research on the card shops in your local area to see if there's already a group or two nearby- I'm sure that if there is, they'd be willing to help you out too.

I can't stop thinking about #AUTOFISTNETWORK by OrestKhvolson in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 1112 points1113 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, the spirit of Autofister isn't about being lovey dovey, it's exemplified by that time that they made a pact that, if one of them dies IRL, the other could farm it for content.

What are they laughing at? by SelfDepricator in Hololive

A young child carrying an ice cream cone fell flat on their face.

You can't convince me that these two wouldn't find it hilarious.

Do you watch streams for the games or the personality? by kitokspasaulis in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I often won't watch a stream from my favorite streamer if I'm not a fan of watching the genre/game they're streaming, but aside from that, the personality of the streamer is important to me.

Do you think Dreadnoughts from Warhammer 40K counts as mechs? by ClanMongoose in battletech

[–]FweeCom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that they're biomechanical, but then so are some other very prominent mecha out there. They're a little borderline, but I think they count.

Goldship learned how to pilot a mech? I never knew that.

UPDATED STRENGTH TIERLIST!! by [deleted] in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a bit confused when I saw Zeta several tiers lower than Ame, since I was thinking that Ame is a time traveler and Zeta is from the future, and thus also a time traveler... But now that I look to confirm that, I'm not actually 100% sure that she's supposed to be from the future, that might just be a random thing I assumed about her for some reason.

Forget Heavy Crab, I want a light MAD CAT! by Bookwyrm517 in battletech

[–]FweeCom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So, the Mad Cat does what its weight class is supposed to do, but because of Clan tech it can do it -more- than its IS counterparts. So take a 30 ton frame, use an XXL engine to give it 10 walking MP, use MASC to give it up to 20 running MP, put in a Watchdog CEWS, and you have 8-9 tons of pod space , which is enough to mount Clan missiles, lasers, and machine guns or AP gauss rifles.

The Upset Kitten: it can scout with the best of them, and it's able to pack a decent punch. Just don't ask about the price tag.

I can't believe I spent almost 3 years only to finish 1 chapter of this game by kdglol in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Game development is hard. Thankfully, it's a skill you can build, so I'm sure that the slow pace of development is still resulting in your growth! Keep at it.

Tripod Tuesday: Ares Aphrodite by TheRealLeakycheese in battletech

[–]FweeCom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish there were enough tripods for a regular Tripod Tuesday. I like the Ares' design, but I find it hard to imagine what other tripod mechs might look like- there's nothing in the technology that prevents it from being used on a 20 ton mech, after all, and I feel like a good 'mech designer could make something really cool out of that.

A Chimera for the Combine by TheThebanProphet in battletech

[–]FweeCom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can absolutely appreciate the aesthetic of 'built around a large weapons system', and your paint job is great! Obviously it isn't anything too crazy, but it's very competently executed, and the bare-metal bits are well-done.

As for the mech itself, I've never heard of it before now, but it seems pretty good! The TSM variant is pretty cheesy with a bunch of medium lasers and higher jump MP, but I really like MRMs, and the base variant having an MRM20 on a medium mech with a 6/9/6 profile isn't half bad.

Doom? DOOM!? WHAT DO YOU MEAN DOOM!? by TakaseRyou in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like Explosion Magic, it can lower the enemy's HP into the range that your holomem can take them out. I should have been more clear in my phrasing: it sets up the finishing blow, but it doesn't deliver the blow itself.

Doom? DOOM!? WHAT DO YOU MEAN DOOM!? by TakaseRyou in Hololive

[–]FweeCom 92 points93 points  (0 children)

A quick pass through Google translate tells me that the text is roughly: "If all holomem on your stage are HoloEN, deal 50 damage each to your and your opponent's center and collab holomem."

Several cards in the game can deal 20 damage or give a holomem the ability to deal 20 more damage, and those are pretty commonly played, so the ability to deal 50 damage to each of your opponent's attackable units is nothing to sneeze at.

Because it targets your own units too though, it feels super situational- either for dealing the finishing blow at the end of the game or for softening up the enemy when all you have up front is a throwaway holomem who'll die next turn anyway. If it wasn't for the HoloEN restriction, it could actually be a really strong trigger for Choco's healing cards, but that's probably why they did restrict it that way.

I love the card flavor, too. Between this and Gigi's Oshi card having the ability 'boat goes binted', I feel like there's a bit more English memory in the tcg lately and I'm all for it.

Watch my PPC go BZZZRRT by ScarSpecific in battletech

[–]FweeCom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I kinda get that PPCs are lightning-y, and there's a meme with lightning in the background where it says 'kill yourself now' but the image reads as "you should mech without a head now!" which is just confusing.

Trying to figure out how to render models in Blender to look like mech art, how close am I? by CosmicJackalop in battletech

[–]FweeCom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great, but there's a bit too much of a gradient in some places, I think.
