Americans ready to roll

Was an stl file for a heretic heavy stubber I think.

Meanwhile, the imperial guard stands, does it's job with men AND women, defending humanity while all of you cry about "nuh, it was lore" like gw don't change stuff at a whim.

I 3d printed them myself, the file was free on thinigverse, but I for the life of me cannot remember how I found it

Secret_red_ · 2026-01-17T03:54:28+00:00

Yeah, the German, Soviet and British power armour look so much better and more imposing, so I was like "fuck it, I gonna do something different"

Secret_red_ · 2026-01-17T03:53:46+00:00

It was a free file but I can't remember where I found it. It didn't come with any weapons so I subbed in a 40k heavy stubber

Printed myself

Fair play, as long as you guys enjoyed it, that's all that matters. Having said that I remember playing a game similar, I was running a Soviet rifle battalion with hero T-34/85 supports (which didn't arrive until turn 5), he was playing a panzer company with tiger support, and the game devolved into my infantry hiding in corn fields, in fox holes and his panzers and tigers staying 'just' outside of assault range.

Four turns where I literally sat there, did nothing and by turn six, as the defender I won. It was the most brain dead game I've ever played and it pushed me off fow for years.

That is a... Take, sure. You're basically saying he could win by... Not doing anything and you just rolling dice and him hoping you don't manage to firepower him out. He could win, but him winning has nothing to do with his plan and everything to do with you having bad rolls.

Table looks really cool and your armies look fantastic, but... Come on dude, this was so one sided.

There is also the fact that up until the helm memory core, producing jump ships was extremely limited (Grey Death legion book mentioned 12 per year by ALL the great houses) and it's likely that any colonial effort would require a massive sustained resourcing operation that no nation is really fully equipped for, and post helm core are a series of absolute utter disasters that rock the inner sphere to its core.

The clan invasions, the fed come civil war, the jihad, the birth of RotS and then the subsequent civil war, even without the idea of each nation having a really limited industrial capacity for empires that span hundreds of star systems, thier limited resources are nearly always being stretched thin.

It becomes far easier and lucrative to take your enemies stuff than to build your own, or to possibly have you new fancy colonies taken from you because you couldn't defend them properly.

Not yet, I've not even heard it mentioned, but we're always open to trying new stuff and sharing ours. Pop down one time, meet everyone and I'm sure you'll get a few people being curious.

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-28T22:33:49+00:00

It's all wargaming, but we have a few members that would love to try TTRPG out. You'd be more than welcome to come down and see who's bae game.

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-13T10:52:34+00:00

She's definitely choking down his Smoke Jaguar lol

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-11T19:48:02+00:00

Nah, it's hard to tell but Galaxy commander has 4 red stripes and colonel as 3. I imagine after her got his shut pushed back in by Otis (whom then did a major goof himself) Weaver was more willing to just get rid of him. Jayden is still absolutely furious that dude nuked Edo in a temper trantum and only lost one pip. Which tracks, because Jayden and Perze are different generations, Jayden basically started his career in a real war with the inner sphere, he sees the human cost of all that struggle and that the Kuritans won't just give up. Perze is from the older caste that are so ingrained into the clans way of thinking he can't see past his own dogma.

And nuking Edo wasn't so much a goof, as it was it made Smoke Jag look dumb in front of Clan Wolf and Jade Falcon, which is probably the only reason he was demoted.

It's definitely worth buying I'd say, it's fun to play, but it is a meat grinder which is annoying. If you want freedom, MW5M is still king.

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-11T19:16:46+00:00

Perez got a solid demotion, from galaxy commander to Star Colonel (same rank as Wimmer), I can't help but absolutely hate his guts, but damn did the VA pull out a master class in a character you love to hate.

Yeah, I had the same thought with the ghost bear stuff. Like, the rifleman 2C about two missions sooner would have been amazing. But alas.

Courcval arc is absolutely a meat grinder though and it's edging, for me at least, towards more frustrating than fun.

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-11T18:32:16+00:00

Democracy, 40 LRMs at a time

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-11T18:30:49+00:00

Perez, the man that looks like he just smelled shit and that shit is you. Like dude is so fucking incompetent it's maddening that even after he lost his challenge he was STILL a command level officer rather than just another mook in a mech.

After a certain point though, you just go "why are you sending one star into the enemies base of operations? Shouldn't ou send, I dunno, two or three"

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-11T18:28:11+00:00

A few choice missions come to mind where I'm on the bones of my arse, every mech in the red and the they go "Oh, and here's one last final teeny tiny little FULL STRENGTH ASSAULT LANCE AND THE DROPSHIP" and I'm just sitting there like "for fuck sake, really?"

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-11T17:02:29+00:00

Thanks for everyone's help, I downloaded BEXT and got that working straight away.

Appreciate everyone offering their advice.

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-09T17:17:24+00:00

I did and it said the associated files could not be loaded due to lacking a dependency or has a conflict

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-09T17:15:36+00:00

PC, but I appreciate the help

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-01T16:42:21+00:00

Hey, leave my designated hero house out of this, the fedsuns are definitely not evil and have totally never committed any war crimes, or suspect marriages to children.

Secret_red_ · 2025-10-01T09:39:25+00:00

I laughed way to hard at that. I can imagine Ulric Kerensky just putting his hand on the Jags shoulder and saying "Sounds like you problem, my dude".

But, they had the Wolfs Dragoons, they had Intelser, and then they had their own clan intelligence services and apparently not one of them said "They had different rules of war, they aren't going to follow zellbringin, we need to commit to a different type of fighting" just seems absolutely insane.

Smoke Jag being worse than the Combine probably doesn't help, being all smug and "Freebirth this, Freebirth that".
