Eh, let me think about what to write here...
A new year and a new #BattleTech roll! And a wild Cyclops appears. A command and control design, which doesn't translate well onto the tabletop. In lore, it is generally a ride of tacticians and leaders, valued for its ability to uplink to satellites.

#BattleTech Rolls an Assault today and we end up with.. the Hatamoto! The Coordinator expects etc. As design of the Renaissance era, the Hatamoto is a redesigned Charger using lessons reverse-engineered from SLDF Thugs that Comstar accidentally shipped.

#BattleTech Rolls go into Mediums, settling on the Hermes II. A solidly armoured and fast design, it is a bit let down by its weaponry. I personally see this as more a skirmisher, but it's classed as a scout.
December 23, 2025 at 3:45 PM
Well, #BattleTech rolls insist on an Assault this week. Since I'm down below 10 for all classes, so why not? And a wild Shogun shows up! A wild, verge-of-extinction Shogun, mind you, as the design is said to have only 6 in existence. Total.

#BattleTech rolls goes up the weight class into Mediums and settled on the Griffin. One of the original "Big 3" 55 tonners, the Griffin sorts of take second fiddle to the Shadow Hawk in uh.. popularity? But it has been a solid design throughout the eras.

#BattleTech rolls back into Light with the Firefly! Nifty. I noticed I have 1 Firefly in the collection, so it's a good time to learn about it. Hmm. This is basically a Dragoon Special, with 4 variants, 3 of which are upgraded.

So #BattleTech rolls into Heavies and good grief, we actually had a miscount and we had less heavies left than I thought. We are still going to do one, since it's been some time, and this time we ended up on the Catapult. And the good old winky-winky..
November 26, 2025 at 5:33 PM
So we have the full range of #BattleTech designs and we rolled into.. a Medium. Seriously, RNG gave me Wolverine. Wolverines are an under radar design; Shadow Hawk has the GDL flavour, Griffins have the Steiner connection, but Wolvies just carry on.
November 18, 2025 at 2:19 PM
#BattleTech rolls stay with Mediums, but this would be the last non-random class for now. After this one, all weights have 10 or less so we'd go back to Google RNG. And today we have... Hatchetman. Hmm, in lore, this is new, so just one base version.

Got my mitts on a #BattleTech Gothic King
Crab. I quite like it as a Pirate Boss Mech, obviously won’t have too many of those…

#BattleTech rolls stay with Mediums and settles on the Hoplite. Ah, the Roomba of Death. The design is slow (for a medium), well armoured and armed, and why it isn't more common is because it is used primarily by the Star League and the Wolf's Dragoons.
November 4, 2025 at 2:58 PM
Sometimes I just randomly pull up some #BattleTech stats to remind myself of things. In this case, the more common 85 ton designs from Introtech. Man that loadout on the Dildo of Death...
November 1, 2025 at 8:12 AM
Gotta be honest, I'm currently restricting #BattleTech rolls to Lights and Mediums because I have 23 of those left, and only 16 Heavies+. So gotta clear some of the lighter stuff, and today we come to rest in Mediums specifically the Vindicator.
October 29, 2025 at 1:31 PM
#BattleTech rolls into Lights with the Mercury. Technically, there isn't an Introtech version in RS:SW, but I'm making an exception because of its place in Lore. But first, a review: It's a fast and well-armed design that uses some advanced tech.

#GenshinImpact Photo event about to be over, and as usual I had to rush. Still, these are what I liked...
October 20, 2025 at 4:30 PM
So this week, I did an audit on my review and found a miscount in the Medium #BattleTech rolls. Which mean we now have too many Mediums left! So auto roll into Medium, and we get a.. Sentinel.. eh. That's.. hard.
October 15, 2025 at 3:01 PM
#Battletech. I can't help but imagine the crater after something shoots at this lot.
October 8, 2025 at 2:06 PM
#BattleTech rolls flutter into Light territory with a roll for Panther. Oh boy. The variants themselves are very easy to talk about, it's just.. might as well discussed a bit about the role of the Panther in our BattleTech Universe.
October 7, 2025 at 3:29 PM
#BattleTech rolls kept insisting on a Heavy today but I have too few of those to do now, so we compromised into a Medium. And a low roll nets us the... Cicada. Hmm. Not a bad timing since I recently got a couple of them from the new KS releases.
September 30, 2025 at 2:38 PM
And #BattleTech rolls stay with Lights (honestly, I rolled a one) and we got a.. Night Hawk. Which immediately puts itself out as it has no Introtech versions, so we go down the line and get... an Ostscout. Heh this would be very quick.
September 23, 2025 at 2:04 PM
So, @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social recently posted some proposed changes to #BattleTech rules. Tranch One is a couple of survivability tweaks.

Go on, I'd wait for you. I'd give some opinions after you're done.

#BattleTech rolls explore the exciting world of... Lights! And I rolled a ONE. That's as light as it goes. I did the Flea previously, so now it's the Locust! Or as I call it, the Lolcust...
September 16, 2025 at 3:15 PM
And #BattleTech rolls into... Mediums! And Crab. Not the big one, the medium sized one. 2 variants so this would be short, and I like it because it's an energy raider with decent speed. But there's a reason it doesn't show up as much as it should.
September 9, 2025 at 1:30 PM
This week's #BattleTech is not rolling. I just have too many Lights left, so I'm going.. very light with the Mongoose. In the Wolfhound review I said the Wolfhound is pretty much the best Light. Well, the Mongoose gives it a good run for the money.

Rushing the #GenshinImapct photo event.. #Furina can be so accidentally photogenic.
