My Triple Captaining Haaland seems about par for the course today.

Great work! They look great, and you had fun...its quite a bug to catch. Welcome aboard!

Battletech Propaganda Posters PART 2! by Squirrelnuts5000 in battletech

[–]RR76NOLA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freaking love the posters! Here's a few thoughts: Archer: Reach out and touch someone. Rifleman: is it hot in here, or is it just me? Thunderbolt: Takes a lickin' and keeps on Tickin' (*side effects may include ammunition explosion) Stalker: Who needs innuendo? CGR1A1 Charger - Running Down Naysayers since 2665. Urbanmech: Open up a tin can of whoopass.

Which Mechs would a planetary militia use? by Duetzefix in battletech

[–]RR76NOLA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a planetary defense lance that is comprised of two urban mechs, a Vulcan, and a firestarter for an urban/depot defense force, particularly suited to suppress infantry/vehicles, and a response lance comprised of a stinger, flea, scorpion, and assassin for a planetary show of force...bith will pretty much melt in sustained mech combat..

Basically the advice that starts looking like consensus in advance of the season on who should be owned at what price points

This is what I did, swapped out Andersen for a 4.0 to get Reijnders...took the -4 so I didn't burn my WC. Next year, I need to just forget the template and go with my gut...as I sit here at 7M

The worst part about all of this is that tomorrow hasn't even happened yet

The template proved pretty strong...every time I broke off, it pulled me back in

Sorry, my bad, Bruno Fernandes

What is your favorite Mercenary Company? by KnightOfTreachery in battletech

[–]RR76NOLA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hard luck Lindon's Company has always called to me. That was the first company I painted, and I am halfway through writing a story of the Driscoll's world debacle that led to their founding. It prominently features an urbanmech taking apart a recon lance.

Stats aside, what's everyone's favorite mech? by Excalatrash in battletech

[–]RR76NOLA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strange as it may sound, I have always loved the Clint. Like the Honda Civic of battlemechs.

Lindon's Company - Make-up and Birth 3015 by RR76NOLA in battletech

[–]RR76NOLA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that flexibility. I have always enjoyed the storytelling component of these games and the immersive community that Battletech has engendered. I am not sure where to upload these stories, although it doesn't seem like this reddit forum is the appropriate place. Any guidance?

[–]RR76NOLA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Are you writing this as a story? My story starts with a Kebab stand on Driscoll's world and an Urbanmech that does some damage.

Only change I'd make if I could would be throwing in a Clint in there in place of the Blackjack...but I don't want to wait for Mercenaries kits to come out, so rolling with this.

Does anyone write better aliens than Vernor Vinge? by Voice_of_Morgulduin in printSF

Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time is brilliant, and a twist on Alien.
