all because a rule or points update decided nothing can surpass the IP holders current 'favorite bestest bois.' Or its a 'new codex cycle' and mine is last on the list.. and my old codex I bought a month prior is worthless. *coughtentheditioncough*

Maybe I'm just built different.. but I never once felt bad playing a ragtag 'defense force' with mid and bad mechs and getting my ass /beat/ in battletech.

40K? My time felt so wasted and disrespected when the army I spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars building/painting is trash-

"Competitive meta? whats that? Can I eat it? Btw My Mist Lynx is declaring a batchall on your Atlas. yes I know its outmatched and will die horribly. That's the POINT!"

When a game can make the above statements like that /true/.. you have Done Something Right (tm).

Is an example, in my mind, of abject failure of game design.

"This Mech has ammo in the legs? That's horrible! Its gonna be so fraggin' funny when he goes kaboom!"

"The back armor is paper thin? FACE TANK! FACE TANK! Oh fuck a Jenner behind me?! Oh look at my center torso go boom! AHAHAHA!"

Because.. to my knowledge.. only #battletech does this. Every other game I have played.. be it #warhammer or some class based online game... if you aren't playing the 'meta' you aren't going to have a good time.

"Oh no they changed the rules/mechanics. this unit is bad now so I can't have fun."

Oh wow.. impressive!

Forgive me for falling for the 4.5 star rating on Amazon. T_T Thankfully I have a friend who is willing to scan and 3d print the parts.

And no.. glue is of no help. #macross #robotech #Modelbuilding

The kind that just shatters or crumbles for no reason... and of course.. those parts broke the moment I tried to use them... sigh... I thought this shit was solved by 2009? Going to report the kit as defective and hope Amazon will refund.

Yeah, the lump of stone where the heart should be could damage it. Then you can't get your deposit back!

...wait.. theres a dark mode option for mech sheets??? Thank you!

Oh hell, this already waaay better than flechs sheets.. they won't even do quads mechs!

Yeah, CGL has been pumping out great new minis in plastic, and the rules are still mostly the same as they've always been (there's been a handful of minor erratta from long before cgl got involved i think.)

They also created a more simplified format called alpha strike!

Ty! I was pleased with how it turned out!

Nice! I did a black knight sorta like that.... came out looking like Master Chief....

Glow effects came from UV reactive paint.
