its just high on the meme-ability scale 😄, but honestly most all variants of the Hunchback are great in tabletop. (Videogames i tend to find myself liking different mech and variants than in tabletop, especially because customization is such a bigger part of them)

I knew there were shrapnel collections, but i didnt know they made each issue in paperback too! I gotta grab some of them. I always prefer physical media when possible - great collection!

Same here. Everyone is welcome in our hobby. Except Capellans

Plus, this lets me put two vehicles per page for record sheets without losing the reference tables.
I mean the TW vehicle record sheets were clearly designed to take up half a page each, felt like a no brainer to minizine the amount of papers to flip thru mid-battle

the little chart that most official records sheets make for the bottom of the page is good, but too small for (easy) practical use IMO. Me and a friend blew it up to a full page, added lines and colors to make it more user friendly. its a staple for me using TW vehicles now!

Our LGS we have tried the support rules, and enjoy them to some degree - but have drifted into using the full classic rules more often. Weve even had some vehicle-only games! Its new rules, yes, but overall felt like the same learning curves as 'mechs in classic. Not too bad and worth the time IMO!

i typically havent played much past 3067 tech (no problems with it i just like classic 3025), but with that context, I tend towards the 7H for lower BV + survivability (standard engine), or 7K for the Pulse Lasers. 8D has fun tech on it to play with as well.

If we talking pure stock, griffin has the edge. But overall with variants and picking any era, gotta go with my favorite medium the Wolverine

Ooo blue highlights really pop for me!

Wait, my head canon narratives of Battletech games isn't getting sponsored?? Well then what's the fuckin point if I can't shove an add on my posts for "Me underwear" or w/e the fuck gets promoted these days 🤣

Absolutely. I put 100s of hours into it, vanilla and mods. Idk if its solely responsible, but the HBS game definitely was among the biggest factors that got me into Classic tabletop BT, of which i'll be eternally grateful for. Despite its sequel's unlikeliness, id take more HBS BT any day.

HBS BT 2 by farrr

As I think of you primarily for mech art, my immediate thought is a combo of Bard/Artificer

Also had John holding up our wedding invite for a solid 15 minutes om stage so that was pretty dope

Amazing work as always!
