Finished a couple of stars of 28mm elementals this weekend. This is the first of those stars. Looks like that Urbie is in serious trouble!

#Battletech LGS living campaign🧵! Mission is to get 3 objectives from 3 trucks coming through a mountain road - 1 may have intel on a rebellious Canopian military leader. We set 2 minefields secretly on the road, and prep by predicting where the trucks may stop (based on known movement speed).

Board is set for tonight's Alpha Strike game. Steiner assaults city. Kurita 206 points vs. Steiner 225. All Steiner units must enter the city by the road and no units can be on the hill map after turn 3(To represent Steiner incompetence, they're walking into a cross fire.) #BattleTech #AlphaStike

Hello Bluesky Community! I've heard about this new platform and decided to take the plunge. I'm the GM Penguin, and I help organize our Wreck-a-Mech #Battletech crew at Third Coast Games in Friendswood, TX. We get together every Wednesday at 6 pm. I hope to see some new faces!

Trailblazer is stealing my bit! 🤣 Seriously, though: the video's pretty good. I would have said more - but I guess that means it's worth writing a newsletter about this topic sometime?

The Turkina A is an elegant, long range platform that looks great in my Sea Fox forces. What is your favorite variant of the Turkina?

Today's building is done. I really love this one. Though I am struggling with making flat usable tops while keeping the style I want. I might be doing a style change too to have more variety as most cities don't have a single cohesive scheme. #battletech #3dprinting #blender

The web version of last weekend's Secrets of #BattleTech is live. This is probably the 2nd-most clickbait title so far - but it's not a bait & switch, there is an attempt to make this tin-foil case.

Another mad cat for the battletech folks here! Gonna get back into painting regularly again, I think. This one is the leader of Eden’s Corsairs, my pirate merc force for a hinterlands campaign I’m taking part in!

Work in progress- Stormcrow C with LBX10, lpl and dual mpl. Around 1850 bv on a 6/9 mover that can take a gauss round anywhere on the front and not penetrate. Thinking of taking it to Rockytop Con (8k Civ War in May/ Knoxville TN) #battletech #MRC #Rockytopcon #TheCoolantPod

This week's Secrets of #BattleTech: Tyra Miraborg in context. While putting this together, I was taken by the moods of Norse saga in the Miraborg story: family tensions, tragic misunderstandings, and, of course, violence. It's wild that the FRR has that darkness AND happy lefty Scandinavia vibes.

The web version of the latest Secrets of #BattleTech is now live. This one's a bit of a hot take - as much as a view on a thirty year old storyline can be a hot take, anyway.
