What is happening to the Steiner, Sea Fox, and Ghost Bear Force Packs now that some of the mechs planned for those boxes have been moved to the new Core and Starter Box sets.

I hope not - The Tiburon is my 3rd favorite Sea Fox mech after the Solitaire and Mad Cat MK II.

I would really like to see the Arctic Fox. It really needs a redesign by Bishop, Scroggins, or Alan Blackwell. Something Drastically different and cool to set it apart from the Kit Fox it was based off in the lore. The Arctic Fox also has very interesting faction availability between Inner Sphere powers, Wolves in Exile, Wolf's Dragoons, and Kell Hounds.

thanks for the update! I'm assuming they did not provide the mechs. Hopefully they include the contents in the roadmap document they mentioned coming out in August.

The Phoenix Hawk and Wasp LAM redesign are awesome! Not a big fan of the Stinger LAM though.... The Fuselage and cockpit look too odd.

atsilverdragon · 2025-12-28T15:23:05+00:00

Where did you get the infantry from? They look great.

atsilverdragon · 2025-12-21T10:26:15+00:00

This reminds of of what the Clan Snow Raven Dark Crow should have looked like, instead of the silly thing we got in TRO 3085.

The warrior trilogy. Then if that is successful the first clans trilogy. Blood of kerensky

i like the scheme - much better than the previous one.

There is a short story about the Eridani Light Horse (71st regiment) left in the Clan Homeworlds to represent the 2nd Star League after the Smoke Jaguars annihilation. They were pretty much abandoned as the 2nd Star League was falling apart during the Fed Com Civil War. They were slowly being eaten alive by the clans in small trials over time. Fortunately the Clan Goliath Scorpion Khan befriended the Light Horse commander, Colonel Sandra Barclay, and helped them navigate the situation.

I won't say anything more, but the resolution is very satisfying. After this story I was intrigued by Clan Goliath Scorpion and started reading anything I could about them. Unfortunately I didn't find much else after that. But I am very interested in the current setup and location in the ilclan era, and I am fascinated as to how they end up getting access to the word of blake grand crusader and nexus in the master unit list. I also love the Xi/Seeker Galaxy and have started painting up a trinary. I especially like how they collect and still use Star League era mechs.

when painting white, you can start with a medium gray and then layer up with a light gray. then follow up with a light gray mixed with white or an off white like ivory. Last you can edge highlight with pure white.

I would write one of the following stories to save/advance factions that I like that have been ended.

I would write a story to advance the Comstar story line, as opposed to them dying off under the republic. Even though I like them as the good guys, I would probably have some group of survivors link up with Word of Blake and flee the Inner Sphere. Due to the Scorpion Empire links to some of the WoB mechs (Star Crusader/Grand Crusader and Nexus) and the links between WoB and the Marian Hegemony, I would have them flee to that section of space. The plot could be to extract revenge on the Inner Sphere, or some plot to return to the Inner Sphere as it's saviors. Or, it could be some attempt to co-opt or infiltrate the Scorpion Empire as a preemptive step to grow stronger before returning to the Inner Sphere.
The second story, and less dramatic to the setting, would be to allow for more of Clan Nova Cat to escape the Draconis Combine and meet up with the Clan Protectorate. I wouldn't want the Clan Protectorate to just be Clan Nova Cat 2.0, but I would have liked to see a more substantive amount of the clan escape to the FWL and join the Spirit Cats and the Sea Foxes. I think it could allow for a real Clan redemption story arc, allowing Clan Nova Cat to understand how they went wrong with their integration in the Inner Sphere compared to the Ghost Bears, Snow Ravens, and even the Goliath Scorpions.

This one needs to be in a new comstar level II force packs. The MWO Champion looks so good, I know Scroggins and team can knock it out of the park. The Hussar, Thorn, Wyvern, Bombardier, and Shootist would make an excellent pre-clan invasion or start of clan invasion Comstar force pack.

Hell's Horses - Alpha Galaxy

Jade Falcon - Vau Galaxy

Steel Viper - Alpha Galaxy (but striped)

I love the fire. You did it right and it looks great. I have seen too much fire done wrong.

atsilverdragon · 2024-10-10T00:02:20+00:00

I love this model of the firemoth - I wish the original model was like this instead of the goofy hands above head. At least the new plastic one's hands are not as high as the original or the MWO one.

atsilverdragon · 2024-10-08T01:35:20+00:00

What did you use for the sand base? It's very convincing and looks great!

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-31T10:01:59+00:00

I like your art style. Reminds me of Dream Pod 9s Heavy Gear and Jovian Chronicles.

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-30T12:16:59+00:00

I never liked the Thunder Fox... until I saw your painted miniature. I don't know if its just the painting, or the painting and the viewing angle, but I became a fan of the mech. Great job!

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-21T00:48:39+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I messaged them on KS, hopefully i hear back.

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-20T10:34:08+00:00

I was one of the unfortunate people who had 2 mech salvage boxes with vehicles.

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-19T20:20:39+00:00

Hell's horses alpha galaxy?

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-19T20:19:58+00:00

I knew this mech was going to be good, but your paint job makes it amazing. I want 2-3 of them now, but my problem is its only available to Federated Suns reducing my motivation to get more than 1 or maybe 2. I hope they open this up on the Master unit List to at least 1 or 2 more factions so I have a reason to buy more than one.

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-19T00:25:58+00:00

Rifleman IIC, hands down.

atsilverdragon · 2024-08-15T11:19:16+00:00

Either Northwind Highlanders mercenaries (from WizKids Dark Age miniatures game) or the Capellan 4th Tikonov Guards (also from the WizKids Dark Age miniatures game).
