I run a campaign for the NorCal BT group.  It's been going for over three years. 

I created my own Warchest system and ruleset for the Mercs involved.

As a result I play on the bad guy side and my forces are determined more by what minis I have painted in the scheme of the opposing force.  I over 1000 painted mechs.

To see my style I would have to post my Martial Olymipia Forces from way back.

I'm lucky that most of the players have m-f 9-5 type jobs. 

But other players don't:
One guy is a baggage handler for United. 
Another a machine shop estimator
Another a grocery clerk
Another a fish merchant

These guys have a hard time getting the weekend off

The reason the Clang-a-Wife forced me to move jobs from the Port of Tacoma to Beacon Hill Seattle was so I had weekends and holidays off.

When i was there, i found the traffic insane.  I live in New England and i'm used to that, but Seattle area far worse I've ever seen.  I'm glad they're still expanding their Lightrail service and commuter rail but i'm not sure how effective it is.

Okay that is a reason I hadn't considered. When the county came by here and asked for an easement down the side of my place I said no and haven't heard anything further about it and that was years ago.

In some cases you are given a choice and some people are stupid enough to say yes. 

If they really need it they will go through the steps to get it including condemning you property.

My battle lasted 6 years.

6 years! Sounds annoying. Glad they didn't try that with myself and my neighbor. IIRC, they wanted to put in a dirt road to access some kind of water pumping station in the greenbelt behind my place. I never understood why because there was already access to it on the other side of the greenbelt. It just takes longer to drive around.

buy property? There only two ways of doing that claim.

Trial of Possession or Mech Raid take whatever there.  :D
