I'm curious now, those towers marked "1" "2" "3", what are those? I also swear I've seen those round buildings with "windows" all around the top somewhere too.
Murphy's Law. To some degree, I just like a lot of terrain too. It's a shame that the tempo of that fight significantly affected the pace of the assaults moving along the center.
Nothing concrete. Challenger tank 64, as of this writing has 10 kills and only 2 dismounts (forced withdrawal due to immobilization/CASE explosion). The shiva pilot has a consistent track record of under performing... but I am aiming to put proper names on the sheets and track that.
Anthony Wilson Ok cool, yeah I noticed that in the rulebook every unit that survives a match is supposed to get a point towards lowering their skills. 8 for gunnery and 4 for piloting. I have already started to keep track of that. A fun bit of personal RPG.
No problem. It's a tough break eh? Getting your head blown off in short order. But that's the breaks. Just be happy for your opponent's win and go about kicking him in the robot shins.
Exilent as ever. Nice to see my favorit fraction Cap con geting an outing. :) Is there any chanse we will get to see the new LAM rules in any future reports?
Compared to Warhammer, you could purchase a single plastic set and have more mechs and stuff than you'd ever use. Battletech really is pauper cheap compared compared to warhammer. So if you think you can get a group interested, I'd go for it!
Still enjoy these all these years later.
Oh, those wacky toasterists and their touchy-feely speeches before serving an involuntary NBC buffet with meteorite dessert to planet after planet.
How could they do that to the Mackie? It's like beating up your great-great grandmother!
Thank you for another Battletech Batrep!
No problem!
HOORAY! Battle tech
AND the end to the WoB Shiloh Campaign has been done as well.

+kereminde I use them as some sort of atmospheric conditioner, a terraformer if you will. They came from OldCrowModels.
Why does it seem that people intentionally go to the north side of the board and stay far away from the southern in these reports :)

Do you guys keep track of your pilots and skill points over time?

what was that speech/poem at 5:30? O.o
Paraphrased and heavily edited from a recording asked for an unrelated RP campaign on 4chan.
+Anthony “Ouchies” Wilson Oh ok. thanks. and thanks for the videos. :)
Glad people enjoy them. They are a sort of labor of love.
Hay thanks for the battle tech vids I really like them in my last battle tech battle I got my best mechs head blown off in the 2nd turn

Cool vid. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! I love aerospace, so yes. It will happen sooner or later. But it might be awhile.
Do you play any Aerotech? It'd be great to see some aerospace games ;)
That we do. Aerotech is awfully vicious isn't it? We've found an air to air engagement practically writes off any ground support.
Great video! You should play Alpha Strike.
What material was used to make the green game board in this game... and how were the hexes made?
It's actually a felt mat I got from Hotz Matz. Super nice stuff.
+Anthony “Ouchies” Wilson did it come hexed?
Correct. It's an option you can have when ordering. Mine are 1.5" if I recall correctly. All my terrain has been focused around 1.5" hexes.
+Anthony “Ouchies” Wilson that's awesome! they look very affordable as well! what size is this one pictured?
I use 1.5" hexes, it's a little bigger than 6'x 4'.
Should I get into battletech? Is is expensive compared to other games? ie. warhammer
Compared to Warhammer, you could purchase a single plastic set and have more mechs and stuff than you'd ever use. Battletech really is pauper cheap compared compared to warhammer. So if you think you can get a group interested, I'd go for it!
Okay, thanks for the help!
***** I've spent nearly 1000€ on warhammer... Getting a introductionary set for battletech is only 60€ and it has pretty much all the mechs you want.
Is using forced withdrawal to make the games go faster?
Immensely. It helps also to make the opponent move your unit once it happens to prevent some other vague cheatery.
make more videos plz
pickup game soon
