Beginning #mechtober talking about my love for Classic BT and painting up the last of my Raven Alliance Beta Galaxy trinary, at least the mechs. I plan on expanding the mercenary attaché as well as adding a battle armor and vehicle support star. Why? I have no idea, these aren't Nova Cats!

Stormcrows are just fucking good. They are some of the best workhorse mediums in Battletech. I like to meme with the Stormcrow B aka Boom Crow in both tabletop and MWO.

Those look beautiful, really well done on the monochrome hulls.

I have received multiple threat risk assessments about #votesafe.org today. This is a dangerous site that if you're dumb enough to open on an insecure browser may compromise your computer. It is also collecting personal data so that your voting preferences can be "adjusted". Be safe out there.

"I've never seen a Phoenix Hawk that looks like that before. Is that thing new too, Ray?" Betty asked over the radio. Chris chimed in before he could respond. "Nah. Better. It's REAL old."

Truth is she grew up a bit too fast on the streets and found a knack for 'mechs in an illegal fighting circuit. Ray swears he's her real uncle, and bought her out of the whole mess.

New #battletech post? Sorry it's been a while. John B. Smokin's Timber Company has a new pilot! Meet Chris Penderson, aka Rat Girl. She pilots a Phoenix Hawk and swears she's not in high school. "Don't knock the shortstack."

Yeah there are security bulletins going out for this already, and anybody using Google for anything related to security or safety is just delusional. They can be overridden with a fart.

Pretty sure the manufacturers of that kind of packaging simply don't label their vacuum formed PETE. Test it but I'll go dimes to dollars that's actually recyclable.

Yeah generally if I have a high HP character like a knight or even Dragoon I can get it done in the mid 20s, I think the lowest win I got during 4JF was 17.

Kuprin, Moogle King of Space @mooglekingofspace.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
I've done some pretty low 4JF runs in the past. Unfortunately without jobs that can totally abuse the mechanics you're usually at the mercy of "what level do I have to be to eat Almaghest". Knights and Shell casters tend to be the most awesomest.

Meanwhile, I like all of those things but adore classic BT, it's imo one of the greatest board wargames ever made

Unfortunate to hear. A lot of these games and projects go international pretty fast, and international terrorism is a serious deal. Is he sure he wants his name on all those lists, and jar up all his business in the failing red states?

Which is kinda funny, because we keep finding pedophiles in the couch cushions over on the MAGA side. It's always a projection so I'd bet he's got his hands in the cookie jar.

Welcome. If y'all have any questions, drop me a line here or on the Star League server you got linked. I do a little of everything, and a lot of painting. Love your work. This is gonna be great.

I thought in CBT a stand of infantry was 25-30 infantrymen depending on equipment load? That'd be a combat platoon, so nine of those would put you up to a reinforced company. You'd want at least couple that for a battalion. Sorry, mil grognard at times. Those look really good tho :D

Yup. A backline threat screened by something sufficiently dangerous that you can't answer the cheap gauss units is one of the strongest ways to play right now. I'm curious if the smoke changes will make unga bunga too strong though.

Got a new player into #battletech today. I love how this game ends up grabbing people, the detail and the tactical depth combined with the hilarious moments. The game ended with the last two mechs on the ground - but mine not getting back up. Good fight. <3

You will, I know it. Check out Heresy for Heretics for some seriously good advice on how to paint in the same style I do (but way better than me).

Ray is a good hearted young man with a habit of selling himself WAY short, and despite being a bit over the top, he's actually the best MechWarrior in the company. John wants to see the kid do well, and knows he could earn a berth with a real outfit like the Kell Hounds any day now.

Alright #battletech fans it's time to meet the most extra member of John B. Smokin's Timber Company. Ray "Wiz Operator" Duford pilots Big Chrome, an AWS-11H Awesome fresh off the assembly line in 3150.

It's honestly worse than that to me because of the entire concept of the beginning of it.

See there are a lot of different answers depending on WHERE in Warframe we are talking about. Most of them aren't too bad. If it's "where you were in the game" then hoo boy. It's party time.

Alright, thank you Troublemaker Games - my Count Binface miniature has arrived in time for Bin Day. Time to get it painted up by Thursday - but there's also going to be a second special addition to this plan. Watch this space tomorrow and Thursday. #votebinface #battletech ?

Yeah that's why I was a bit confused. The pauldrons and the carbine made me think Imperial but it's been a long time and I didn't remember if they had any specific unit or regional camouflage patterns
