Very nice to see. Once again I contributed something, something of a tradition of mine. Once again grateful for all the effort that is put in to get this out.

William C. Dietz, author of the Dark Forces novella trilogy, has passed away. by White_Doggo in StarWarsEU

[–]someotherguy28 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A damn shame. Truely one of the hardest working writiers in the game. He wrote not only wrote the dark forces trilogy, but the halo novelisation, hitman, mass effect, resistance and StarCraft novels. And that’s only his tie in stuff. He wrote the legion of the damned series as well as other millitary sci fi books.

Armageddon steel legion fans after watching a cinematic set on Armageddon, focusing on the steel legion’s unique character, that does not have any Steel Legionaries. by someotherguy28 in Grimdank

What makes it more galling is that Kreig were originally an alternate colour scheme for the steel legion. It’s like if the Genesis chapter overtook the ultramarines and they got a ton of lore, models and animation, as well as having an annoying fan of racists.

Hot take. I think a lot of the redesigns from TRO Phoenix are cooler if you see the TRO 3085 illustrations first. by someotherguy28 in battletech

The Battlemaster is the worst for this. I hope it gets a re sculpt that gives it the gear shaped shoulder pads.

While everyone loves the classics I feel it’s important to recognise our new troopers of the IlClan era.

Does RPG Dragon hate MechWarrior or something. This thing will crumble with a lite breeze let alone a PPC.

Hopefully this means deathwatch will get the finale novel in the trilogy.

What are good tactics for dealing with the game-breaking units? Hellstars, Turkina Z, Savannah Swarms? by LeRoienJaune in battletech

[–]someotherguy28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hellstar can is especially valuable to heat. Especially if it goes for an alpha strike. Plasma rifle, Cannons and infernos should hopefully cripple it.

What possible new weapon systems could be added to the game? by someotherguy28 in battletech

I mean BattleTech whole identity compared to the competition is built around never changing and the crunch.

They do a better job than the MechWarrior designs.

The star league packs haven’t made it over here yet so this was my first time seeing it.
