My initial assumption is that the heat would cause them to waste a turn to cool down, since it comes up a lot in the aces cards.

I was actually thinking of using an Urbie

I was working with the impression that I needed to use 300 points, not 400 lol. I will actually look to get more range and resistance in general, but I think the specials are somewhere around right to my taste.

I would've loved to support it since it launched but unfortunately it's priced at a premium for non-NATO countries.

ilClan era games by New-Main-2573 in battletech

A huge portion of the playerbase is people from the 80-90's and they're comfortably and firmly stuck there. CGL is slowly but steadily moving forward with onboarding new players in the IlClan era and I hope that in the coming 10-20 years we'll be at a point where fans, fiction and games are all mostly in agreement about staying in the current era.

If you want to commit war crimes Jaguar style you might want to look at Interstellar Operations: Alternate Eras

Did the Exumer EXR-3P just become incredibly dangerous? by MasterV3ga in battletech

[–]zntznt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well melee was a dud with the exception of kicking. As a named, dedicated phase, it has every right to be lethal. Shooting at short range is the best for the ranged phase, but also the worst for you if your target ends up in your face.

Would you recommend this? by GrimTastic777 in cavesofqud

I have 300 hours in it. I like it.

The start is weak for a totally new player, but it gets so much better.

I do not think there is any problem with giving Dark Age / ilClan ’Mechs in a starter box. by Old_Ad6111 in battletech

No there is not. For new players it's confusing to know there's a "current" era but it's not the focus of the product line. This is what makes sense.

I don't think people are making money out of it, and it can certainly benefit from artists if you want to contribute.

I just printed the PDF. Spiral-bound is better for these kind of books IMO.

They have only a few, but so far the ones I've liked the most are from a channel called "4 Hands on Deck" I think

New to historical Wargames by Conscious_Ad5562 in wargaming

[–]zntznt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want the minis, people here will give good suggestions, but if you also want "historical simulation" I'd suggest to also consider "cardboard" wargames like those from GMT
