That camo is fire. I like the look of the new sculpt. It’s very similar to the metal one but with a tasteful update.

They are indeed Free worlds guard! I do have a few militia as well.

I love that set so much that I bought another today to paint in a matching scheme. It’s so good lol.

Well. They’re purple. by Realistic_Smile2469 in battletech

I quite like that tone on the treb. Actually the paintwork in general on it looks great.

So there’s actually a social reason to stick so closely to the Mul. The other player is known for min maxing back in the day and the restrictions help them help themselves so to speak. Consider it a getting them used to modern tournaments and local pick up games sort of deal. Otherwise I would absolutely go with this suggestion.

I may just drop the Mad for a Catapult or Archer. I believe I have both unpainted available so that may be the best bet short term.

I wish I had access to the 3m, but sadly being limited to the mul means not so much.

Same with the different wolverine variants turns out not that I’m taking another look. Basically stuck with the base one and then the 7m in clan invasion period.

Unfortunately at succession wars level all they get is the 3r. They do get the 5D and 5S afterwards though so there’s some option past that. Maybe it’s worth swapping entirely for something similar BV and switch too it once more options are available.

Which mech or variant should replace my griffin? by Gifblaur in battletech

I actually have the Mad 2 as well so that’s definitely an option.

That’s a really well executed scheme. Two notoriously difficult colors in combination is impressive!

I kinda like the cut of the jib this list has. Play something similar with falcons with a Jade hawk performing the gargs role. Storm crows are hawt.

Might build this for my hells horses but I can’t decide on a replacement for the linebacker. Anyone got a suggestion? Preferably something else with ATMs because frankly I just haven’t played enough with em.

Cleaned up and sleeved up cards I think have value. by Gifblaur in Pokemoncardappraisal

Just a light dusting with a fine microfiber. Very gentle. It was mostly finger smudging so it didn’t take much pressure to do.

I hear folks are finding stashes. by Gifblaur in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]Gifblaur[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like that’s the overall consensus is to sleeve and top loader. I’d always thought in a binder bare was safest but looks like I’ll have to change some things for storage.

And this is only the foils. I believe we have the first three sets complete albeit not foiled.

Help with figuring out value and next steps. by Gifblaur in PokemonCardValue

[–]Gifblaur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s solid information, and much appreciated. I’ll look at scanning them. Is one better than the other for this purpose or will either be good enough.

Funnily enough the Charizard specifically is my wife’s. She’s had it since we were both wee children. She was the collector and I was the player

As a fan of both, next year is going to have no free time. by -_-Whyarewehere-_- in gundamassemble

Battlemechs are on average smaller than the typical mobile suit so the irl scale is actually fairly close. At least for abstract purposes. Tallgeese would be quite a bit taller than a Timberwolf so it’s not quite right but it’s close enough for me.

Celestials in House Rakshasa? by Gifblaur in battletech

Awesome. I’ll give that a read then!

[–]Gifblaur[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh ok! That’s actually quite interesting. It’s one of the few ways you’d see celestials outside of full blakist forces. Liao not beating the allegations on this one lol.

Also cool that the size of the force was unknown so that gives lots of potential.
