"Don't go into the long grass!" Another field taking shape, this time it will have a trail beaten into it. A wooden fence will surround this one and a copse of trees will be on one side.

The Waneta (wah-NAY-tah) LAM,the name is Native American in origin most likely Sioux. It is associated with "one who charges" or "shapeshifer".
LAMs are controversial to some, but for me they are an integral part of the Battletech experience.

Had a 3 player Classic Battletech game Saturday. Normally we put 2 players on the same team when this happens, but this time we did something different, 3 maps in a Y shape.
The map on top determines the terrain type when you have half hexes. Overall it work well

Battletech Saturdays! I ran all 55 tonners calling them 'I Can Drive 55' My Scorpion absorbed an insane amount of center torso damage, it's gryo was destroyed.
I decided at that point to yeold the field and leave with my surviving Mechs.

Played a quick game of A Clash of Rhyfles Saturday. 3 figures per side with the latest rules.
It was even steven right up till the end when it went sought for the Croftyans.
When the smoke cleared, 3 Royalist were either causalities or POWs, with a single Crusader loss.

3 Quar Crusaders painted up. Only 9 more to go. I have them moving through a modular terrain tile that I made recently just for A Clash of Rhyfles.

I have been running a 7K Wolverine, with dual SRM 6s. Standard 5/8/5, XL engine and IS pulse lasers, nothing too crazy.
It has become the bane of my local group however, because I have been using tandem charge warheads in the twin SRM 6s. It is trageted first every game I deploy it.

The wheat field is nearing completion. It is modular and will be 'flocked" with felt to act as a pasture or corral.
I have a coconut mat insert to represent wheat. I just need to whip up a furrowed insert as well.

The courtyard is done! Instead of flocking it, I decided to go with a grass insert made of felt. This makes it much more durable for tabletop play. Now all I have to do is finish the various extras that can drop into it to change its look.

I found his terrain piece from 1982. it was for D&D
It was a mimic outhouse (I was 10 and that was funny as hell then). The door could open, and there was a hand drawn moth behind it.
I am going to spruce it up a bit and use it for Quar out of pure nostalgia.
