So the good news is I leveled up my sushi skills. The bad news is my state is landlocked so... "fresh" fish is... hmm. Going to have to find a good supplier if I want more than California rolls

WIP. Getting ready for #rockytopcon in Knoxville, May, #ATLSummerFever Atlanta, June, and #nashcon in Nashville, Aug. Firestarter-OX is no joke with blind missions AND c3 shenanigans likely, it's an expensive but Bloodhound probe and Angel ECM may pay off in missions. #MRC #Battletech #TheCoolantPod

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

LBX10, Lpl, dual mediums with >=20 pips on torsos and legs, moderate IS availability on a 5/8 move for 1250 bv? Might be time for y'all to check out the Enfield 6Q. More than just Mechcommander 2. #battletech #MRC #Megamek

After a very rough year, I'm finally getting back into painting! This week has been the first time in almost a year that I've picked up a paintbrush. Here's my work in progress on this synthwave #Battletech Penetrator!

Alright, brainstorming- if I put 6
Magnets pointed inwards, one on the base, and one on the feet, I think the mech can "float" like it's crashing into a geodesic sphere. What's the strongest glue I can use? Resin? Epoxy? #battletech

IWM Thunder Hawk packed with dust from the sander and lit with gasoline. So, the scale means I don't think it's viable, but it was a fun #battletech weekend experiment for an hour of #minipainting. Stripping time!

First MRC #battletech Poll of 2025:
"What is the best way to spread the good word of the MRC?"
1) Pure word of mouth of our existing members
2) Big ticket in person events (see Brawl in the Bluegrass 2025 as an example)
3) Click bait

Even during the week between the holidays, we still get an MRC #Battletech poll. This week includes a specific MRC aspect to it, but only in the listed answer options, so hopefully no issues sharing it here. The question is: "What is the worst additional duty (job) in a Battletech Mercenary unit?"
This week, our #battletech question is, "which Catalyst-Clause wish list item do you want first under the Mech-mas tree"? (For context, this is off the latest Coolant Pod episode from @tweezer-mrc.bsky.social & team, creators.spotify.com/pod/show/the...)

Sun Cobra of Wolf Iota Galaxy, work in progress. Simple: dual gauss, Targeting computer, that's it on a 4/6 med. mech. At 1,677bv, great sniper for Wolf and later IS clans. Up skill to 3/4, deadly at 22 hex from deploy zone. Great long range threat but w/o JJ's can get ganked. #battletech #clanwolf
