So that game started strong then my opponent tilted. So we stopped. Pity. #battletech

My preference is to ask someone to explain the history of exactly why the holiday came to be in the first place.

A fine crop of mech jocks for the arenas of Solaris VII! I had a lot of fun painting this group. 3 mechs in each weight class so our Bad Luck Battalion campaign characters can fill out the 4th slot for 4-way classic #battletech matches! #mechwarrior #mecha #tabletopgaming #miniatures #minispainting

FINALLY got some bases on my Death Commandos Lance! I stole @squeezle.bsky.social’s idea of making a creek that runs through all the hexes. I used 2 layers of superglue over brown paint and it worked great! #battletech #mechwarrior #miniatures #minispainting #tabletopgaming #mecha

Pretty sure they would all answer yes without missing a beat. Not that they do, but they are just that far into it.

I still have not finished season 3 and I loved season 1, so I concur.

Today I painted two Mechs. A Hoplite HOP-4B and an Annihilator ANH-1X in the colors of the Star League, US Olive Drab. You can find more of the Mechs on Instagram.

Finished off a couple more Mechs! 🤖 We've got a Lyran Bushwhacker and a Mercenary Grasshopper! This was my first attempt at a grassy base and I think it turned out pretty well!

Today's post is the #Shogun which I found out can punch better than I thought! The bonus to melee is really funny to me
But yeah I based this one on the Gun Volt from #MegamanX

Just had a wonderful trip to the Rockland region late spring. Love Maine, went a lot as a kid and now love taking my daughter there. So many great spots.

Is @kenwhite.bsky.social going to have add flyers to the list of ways not to talk?

Went down to Newport to cheer on a friend running the half. I love races, so much fun as both a runner and a fan. Have heard Chicago is one of the best. I think “dangerously wholesome” is a great line.

The cover to BattleTech: Outfoxed, the first full novel for Katie Ferraro and the Fox Patrol, goes way harder than should be possible. The book comes out in 13 days. Pre-orders should start soon.

Tonight, I was humbled and honored to accept the Utah Book Award’s top prize in the speculative fiction category for my book BattleTech: A Question of Survival.

An award sits on a table next to a framed photo of the book cover of the book A Question of Survival, in the background are the mountains.
