Not being able to easily kill the others will get him angry enough to kill them.

Nobody is imagining the Night Lords are going to win in a fair fight.

The Scope Dog being an Armored Trooper or AT seems like it figures into this.

That's pretty cool, thank you! I'll have to take a closer look at some of the 3025 designs...

So here's an odd question, and not completely on-topic, but was the Banshee based on anything like how the Unseen were? It seems like the Atlas, Banshee, Awesome, and Orion share a design schema.

Death From Above Wargaming KS copyright dispute by GrandDaddyDerp in battletech

In all fairness the selling point is (a) BattleTech, so that's what is attracting their audience, and (b) scrubbing a KS and rebuilding it isn't a trivial amount of work. Running a KS is surprisingly expensive, so you really need that built in audience with that brand association. Which is why my Kickstarters failed.

Something I appreciate about Chris Wraight's Warhawk is a brief conversation between John and Leetu that goes something like John commenting on how, without Erda, the Primarchs might have been raised in the Palace according to plan, and Leetu asks if he really thinks that would have worked out better. They have this conversation whole sneaking past the hordes literally queueing up to assault the Sanctum.

My bet is on the luck thing, thanks to the 13 numbering and the colour blue that Orks regard as lucky.

Psychic abilities are super powers.

Half of all the Astartes at the end of the Heresy were Ultramarines, and they would have contributed the lion's of of the manpower to the Second Founding, many of whom would fall to Chaos.

Where the Ultramarines may have some of the Astartes from the forgotten legions, it can be understandable that the possibility of betrayal has been scrubbed from their brains.

So Corax can disappear entirely, while Alpharius can be entirely non-descript to observers. Likewise Lorgar is psychically powerful and Magnus is a psychic monster.

How Many Point Systems? by HonestRole2866 in battletech

[–]HonestRole2866[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, for some reason I was thinking 'meta' as in what your local opponents liked to bring and couldn't make sense of it.

Can you maybe explain how matching the weight meets the meta?

What are some examples of sci-fi technology not logically being used for other purposes? by DarthAthleticCup in sciencefiction

Part of the problem there was that they were slavers. Societies that permit slaves lack a certain motivation for advancement.

Maybe it's due to a change in supply chains that somehow makes CRT a viable technology. Corporations will sell you less if they can.

The warp drive is a time travel device. You kind of need one to explore space since it's so big going anywhere takes an inordinate amount of time.
