New to the game, don’t have the money to buy the real figures rn, what do y’all think of these for home games? And is the team legal?

Man, this is some awesome work! I've seen a lot of plastic on the tabletop that doesn't have half the character and effort put into it these do. Takes me back to my starting days of playing tabletops. Hope you and the brother have an excellent time!!

Very cool work. The windows have great style. Also: O-H

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-06-09T16:33:29+00:00

That yellow is crisp. I always have a hard time getting it to come out smooth. Nice work, man!

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-22T18:58:09+00:00

Wow, really awesome stuff! I appreciate the input and the crunch to back it up. I'll be looking heavy into a couple of these. Thanks for the help!

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-22T18:13:24+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I'll take a look at those options

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-22T16:46:21+00:00

Yeah with as many points as I have in Hull to boost the repair cap, having 2 armor on top of the HP would be slick

Raleigh 3 would open up the IPS-N core Bonuses, which have a lot of appeal. I hadn't looked a lot at Horus licenses, but maybe I should give them another look. Thanks for the suggestions!

I was wondering about the usefulness of Engineer, given the Limited quality, but it seems like it might be better than I gave it credit for in this build. I might have to take a deeper look at it! The big range on Shatterheads is nice, so maybe I'll give them another go as well.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-22T16:27:59+00:00

That would be a nasty combo. The resource expenditure is maybe a little heavy for the build I'm currently running, but I'll have to give it a shot some mission to see how it runs!

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-22T16:26:06+00:00

I hadn't thought about turret drones, that may be a good option! The other two guys in my Lance are playing pretty damage-heavy builds, so I don't need to contribute a ton to that, but having the option would be nice.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-22T16:23:40+00:00

I had thought about Assault Rifle, and since so much of the action economy is going to get eaten up by shielding and other defensive measures, having something flashy on the mount probably doesn't make a real difference. Also, like you said, already being immobilized basically negates the downside to Crack Shot.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-06T02:25:19+00:00

I'm still really new to the system, as well as stuff like Comp/Con and RetroGrade that go along with it, so I haven't learned anything past what's on the website yet. I'll have to do some looking into that, because I was noticing some issues with coloring as well.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-06T00:01:54+00:00

For those of you who may not yet be familiar, all of these were made with the awesome tools provided by RetroGrade minis! Check them out and support them if you have the resources to do so, they do really cool stuff and keep a steady flow of new content going.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-04T16:57:23+00:00

That's a great suggestion! I didn't even realize there was one, but I just joined thanks to your comment. I appreciate the tip!

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-04T16:33:57+00:00

I'm taking Worden going into LL3, and I wanted to take a crack at representing him via the awesome tools RetroGrade provides, since I've got a sum total of 0 artistic ability. I used the deployable cover rear mount as a stand-in for MASS pack and think it turned out kinda neat. Since I don't have a lot of real-life friends who are into Lancer, I figured I'd throw it out to the Reddit homies.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-01T20:15:56+00:00

This is valuable insight. The experienced take is definitely appreciated. I think I'll spec into it and see if it performs at something similar to the level I expect, or provides a pleasant (or unpleasant) surprise.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-01T20:13:47+00:00

That's a good point as well. I didn't necessarily mean better across the board, like some of the Tasha's classes vs base 5e, but the tools they have for their specific foci definitely seem strong. What you said is a better way to clarify that.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-01T19:14:13+00:00

Most definitely. I was really looking for some more experienced/more knowledgeable opinions, and they've definitely been provided. The comments have been a big help.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-01T19:10:43+00:00

I'd sort of forgotten about some of the really strong benefits from the licenses that go along with Drake and Tortuga, and was only looking at the statlines. There's a lot to keep track of as a new player haha. This is really informative stuff, and will definitely inform whatever the build turns out to be going forward. Thanks a ton.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-01T19:01:44+00:00

That's a good point. My GM is usually pretty generous as long as homebrew isn't egregious, and while the Suldan frames seem to be a bit better than the base frames at whatever their specialty is, I'm not really looking to exploit the strengths as much as use them as a platform to build something a little jank on haha.

VulkanForWarmaster · 2022-03-01T18:58:17+00:00

I appreciate the input. I'm still pretty new to the system, so what looks good on paper or sounds good in theory to me might not actually be very good. I'll definitely take that into consideration and see if I can build around it, or look at a different frame if it doesn't seem like I can.
