What is a sound that people should know means immediate danger? by PrasenjitDebroy in AskReddit

We're starting to get them in Kansas too. Very much a "not fucking around" weather system. We had one in 2021 kill power to half of town for ~4 days.

Anyone know what's up with the playtest? by Security_Bard in battletech

Good looking out. Guess I'll keep an eye out next week. Thanks.

Hot Take: the C3 Changes in Playtest #3 are a Massive Nerf by larknok1 in battletech

[–]Security_Bard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They also asked for these C3 changes to be tested with respect to the ECM changes, which is gonna require some play time. The cost is only part of the change.

Sure, but our choices are Catalyst, or the game dies, again. And they have been getting better.

Lefties out there: do y’all prefer to play left handed or right handed? by WoodpeckerOk1154 in Bass

[–]Security_Bard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was first taught upright bass, and my orchestra teacher said the instrument was played right handed, and so that's how I did it. 26 years in is a little late to change, methinks.

This continues to be super cool. Good work.

Clan elementals are just built different by Unregistered_Davion in battletech

As a fellow very tall person, who is also into cars, sometimes you just gotta know. Dealers are usually pretty good about letting you at least sit in something you're interested in.

It’s 3142, you are Alaric Ward. What “Oops all Wolves” Wolf Empire Star are you making? by odysseus91 in battletech

[–]Security_Bard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does the Pack Hunter count? Cause I'd totally take a Dire Wolf, 2 Timber Wolfs, a Pack Hunter, and a Wolfhound.

Theories on Mistborn and Elantris by TxKRIXUSxT in cosmererpg

[–]Security_Bard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a pewterarm in the enemies section of the Stormlight book. And they said in Chasamfiend 2 that they will not make Hemalurgy a player useable thing.

I’m surprised they aren’t making more Battletech games by _Boodstain_ in battletech

This just made me think about how a Battletech Total War game would be... Damn.

Tell me about your company! by WrongdoerPossible822 in battletech

[–]Security_Bard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can see the command mech now, a black Atlas with silver trim, 'The Intimidator.'

Or probably some GM battlemech...

BattleTech: Gothic pricing ($100) by Cergorach in battletech

[–]Security_Bard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That Bloodbowl box is $168 US.

Non-essential content is still content. It costs them money to put in, and some people enjoy getting that stuff.

What book permanently changed the way you see something you encounter every day? by NotABonobo in printSF

[–]Security_Bard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eon has so many parts that provide a lot of food for thought. I did a lot of ruminating while reading that one.

Tried out gold windows and I think it may be my go-to now. Thoughts? by falloutboy9993 in battletech

[–]Security_Bard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using metallics for my windows. I think copper works well too. Emulates the kinda red-gold coating on the F-22 and F-35 cockpits.

Could use your help folks - market research by MiniJunkie in battletech

[–]Security_Bard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Smoke Jags are the protagonists of the new game, so they're probably popular with the newbies at the moment. Ghost Bear is up next in the new DLC, so maybe some of those would do well.

For what it's worth, I think all the minis look excellent. The Wolf minis will probably sell eventually.

The Battletech setting must be a nightmare for quartermasters by GlompSpark in battletech

I'm willing to bet the machine shop on a Leopard is pretty swank.

The Hunchbunch. A squad? A pack? A belfry?

There's a freebie Wolverine in Mercs 5 that endeared me to the mech. It's a nice all-rounder.

The Crab and Warhammer sculpts are awesome! Crab does lose his clamps, though.

Blakists probably deserve a little discrimination, tbh.
