#mechtober day3! Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries was my intro to Battletech and still one of my all-time favorite games. I quickly followed it up with the core game and the other expansions, original MW, and both Crescent Hawk games. Been hooked ever since.

Welp. I’m officially my old man. On the plus side, I’m hoping this will get rid of my constant fatigue.

A pink and gray poster: featuring a guillotine shaded in black halftones. The words "IT ENDS HERE", and an arrow and a manicule pointing towards the head hole of the guillotine. A white star in the middle of it. at the bottom of the poster, a painting of flames in turquoise, with the words "nothing to lose" and other embelishments in pink.

It’s #mechtober and I finally got to play a game of classic @battletech.bsky.social at my FLGS. Had a great time with my old 80s miniatures 🤣

Painted my old Ral Partha Phoenix Hawk for the game I’m playing Thursday. Looks a little rough with the flash, but I’m happy enough with it to stop fucking with it tonight.

My Battletech hyperfocus has wormed it's way so deep in my brain that it's just always bouncing around in there now. It's in my literal dreams at night. At this point I think the only solution is to convince @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social to contract me so I can at least pay my bills with it.

Building a Lance for my first public Battletech game in nearly 30 years at my FLGS. Surprisingly difficult to hit the BV and setting guidelines when most of my minis are Medium-Assault from a smattering of factions. I'm gonna have to run as Mercenaries, but I think I figured it out.

My copy of Shadows Over Sol by @tabcreations.com came in and it looks so good! Holding my work in my hands is by FAR my favorite part of doing this stuff. Second is my kids begging me to run this for them. 🤣 If you your own copy, you can find it at www.tabcreations.com

Welp it’s happening. I’m writing fan fiction because of a hyper-focus. I have a full outline for a ‘coming of age story’ ala Stand By Me/Sandlot set in the Battletech universe. No clue if I’ll finish it. No clue if I’ll post it. It will probably suck. It’s happening whether or not I want it to. 😅

That logo looks familiar 🤔 The concept for this game is really fun, and I'm looking forward to watching this later when I have some time.
Undead Paradise logo that I designed. It shows a yellow diamond cross-walk sign with a zombie leading a child zombie by the hand, next to the words UNDEAD PARADISE also in yellow set in a distressed sans-serif font.

Got to see Resident Evil over the weekend and HOLY SHIT was that a fun flick! Honors the source but does its own thing. Spectacular timing between horror and comedy to build tension. Perfectly cast lead that carries you with him every step. THATS how you make a video game movie.

Finished Ghost of Timkovichi and really enjoyed it. My first @swankmotron.com book. I like the energy he brings to Battletech. He’s got a way with characters that’s a lot of fun. Also, I need more Ransom. Only caveat is it could have use another pass through the editor. I caught so many typos 😅

My #Dragoncon visit was short, but fruitful. Visited the @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social booth twice, and made out with quite the haul. Got to meet @swankmotron.com and have him sign my book. Also found and painted a $1 Rifleman in the charity mini painting booth. I’m a very happy Mechwarrior.

Even though convention season is already in full swing, it's not too late to spice up your booth. From table skirts and pop-up banners, to full pre-fab and custom booth designs, I'm no stranger to trade-shows.

Stole this from the comments because this shit shouldn't be behind a paywall.
Crucially, the GLOVE has limitations, chief among them that for the device to work effectively and deliver its restraining pain shock, it must come into contact with the subject's bare skin. According to Compliant Technologies, the gloves won't work through dry clothing or thick hair. The gloves will work, however, if the subject is wearing thin, wet clothing, such as soaked T-shirts or blouses. The GLOVE also does not like being dunked in water and will likely be rendered inoperable if this happens.

Every now and then I get an idea for a tabletop game I'd like to make. I usually even brainstorm and write it down. And then I realize how much work it'll be to finish, and test and I barely even play the ones I already own. I then happily let the idea die.
