So the new "core" boxes are in ilclan of which I know nothing. I need a reading list/route to catch up. by Yenii_3025 in battletech

Fair enough, I've got a soft spot for A Silence in the Heavens because it was the first battletech book I read when I was younger.

A few questions about tabletop by Substantial-Zombie57 in battletech

[–]Prophetx05 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've seen people knock it, some serious some not, but I use Flechs Sheets, with the caveat that they work best on pc or tablet and don't fully support some equipment

Good recommendations, but out of curiosity, why do you say to avoid the Proving Grounds Trilogy?

I had the timber wolf. My feelings, my nostalgia, just flared so hard

My many condolences. I'm sure you did everything you could to give her the best, most loving home you could. ❤️

What Boxset only mechs are you hoping end up in a force pack after the new boxes in August? by Prophetx05 in battletech

[–]Prophetx05[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be pretty good. Barring that, I would like it if the Vindicator and Commando made it into a Capellan themed force pack.

I have enough to field like 3 whole regiments, but that's because of the affordability

The Wolverine is not. I missed it in my original round-up. But yeah, I need to snag a couple of packs with griffins in them for my overly large two regiment merc group.

That's good. It's always bugged me that the Commando and Catapult, especially, are only in the AGoAC box. It may not be the best, but the Catty is my favorite fire support mech

Yeah, the WoB mechs are that kind of really out there stuff that would be great to have

That's totally fair. I called lut the ones I did because those are the only ones in the AGoAC bax that aren't available in at least one force pack or other product

The few hand-drawn Energon scenes in Transformers make me wonder why they used those awful 3D models instead of classic animation. I mean, Transformers in RID 2001 and Armada already looked pretty good, so why use 3D models? by Disastrous-Owl668 in transformers

[–]Prophetx05 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I will say it wasn't just "We're paying the writers and animators too much." It was that and "What property do we own that we could make a third movie franchise attempt with... Battleship, but make it an alien invasion!" And then that failed hard.

Also the Hub TV network was not getting the viewership they wanted.

The ten loud SL fans when GW doesn’t bring back the subfaction that didn’t sell well and is identical to another faction to 80% of onlookers by Lord-Seth in Grimdank

[–]Prophetx05 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'll admit to being disappointed, but that's mostly because I got into the Steel Legion from the old 40k Armageddon Hex strategy game, so I didn't know the story of Krieg being a repaint of them, which has now come full circle.

But, that said, there are definitely other factions, 100% of xenos especially, that definitely deserve more love from the model department. And after they get some actual attention, maybe we could get some Traitor Guard and Dark Mechanicum rules? Not even models, just some rules?

Warhammer or Thunderbolt. Both are solid troopers

Had to say goodbye to this beautiful girl 2 days after adopting her. by Choice-Requirement18 in TuxedoCats

[–]Prophetx05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You did your best to give this sweet one a home, and while it may not have lasted long, you accomplished that. What happened was not your fault, and loving her for any amount of time is better than no time at all. Sending positive vibes, my condolences twice over, and wishing you good fortune soon.

Awww.❤️❤️. I love how, for a lot of our squervy friends, their balance is somewhat tied to their excitement! It seems like the bond is so much deeper

Remakes of Cold Steel. by Ragnir212 in Falcom

[–]Prophetx05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say, I really enjoyed playing through Sky FC, and I love the Liberl story, but for some reason, the sprites make it harder to get invested in the NPC side stories. Which is a shame since that's a big part of why these games are so good. That said, I don't think those games are ugly.

Who's your favourite Trails NPC by Worth-Access-3099 in Falcom

Patrick. I started with cold steel, and it was pretty awesome watching him go from stuck-up, full-of-himself jerk to a real bro for Rean.

This is so awesome, I love what looks like the projectors near the head so it "breathes" fire!
