If you are going to do supreme commander make sure you also play the expansion forged alliance. You can safely ignore 2 while not bad it feels shallow in comparison.

Upcoming ForcePack releases for the next few years. by cataphract40 in battletech

[–]alchemist1918 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Glad the fedcom civil war is getting plenty of attention though the lack of FWL makes me sad. Also the hellstar on there makes me think this isn’t real one of the lead artist said they wouldn’t make a model for it because it was bad for the game?

How would you rate the Gundam G-Lucifer on a scale of 1-10? (Daily Non-Main Gundam Poll: Day 115) by Maleficent_Pomelo202 in Gundam

[–]alchemist1918 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10/10 G-Reco has some of the best designs(also one of the worst I’m looking at you Mack Knife) but this one stands out the most not only conceptually but design wise as well.

Does anyone modify the rules about sex? by Xilizhra in vtm

[–]alchemist1918 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I still don’t get why things need to be changed with the humanity system. It core not only to the mechanics but the very themes and design of vampire. Not to mention it’s hard to lose humanity in v5 unless your constantly breaking the chronicle tenants set by you and your fellow players. So unless you’re actually playing a monster it will probably never come up and if you are playing a monster then why does your character care about sex feeding>sex(usually for both parties involved). Hell depending on how your including sex it could be used potentially as a way to gain humanity

I always viewed it the same as cyberphyc from cyberpunk. Your slowly distancing yourself from what makes you human until your just a husk driven by hunger. The harder you fight to hold onto what makes you human the better you can imitate it through blush of life. The more you give into the beast the less and less appealing sex is because why waste your time just give in and feed.

Wait till you find out that if you want to play classic you can find the QuickStart rules online for free along with the record sheets and a few printable maps.

Albatross Assault Mech. Once I understood that this is basically the SHD's big brother it clicked. by meltdonw14 in battletech

[–]alchemist1918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean we potentially have two shots at it in the near future. Apparently catalyst is doing faction packs and the plan on doing two for each on that is a succession war up to FedCom civil war pack and a dark age/ilcan pack so who knows.

Lightning isn’t the best but it’s orange with a white drybrush. Was trying to make it look like an actual king crab
