Looking for group in Central Maryland

[Engineer]

Paul,

do you have a date for the next game?

[Paul]

If I did, there'd be a post here. :p

hopefully, she's cuter than Paul.

My wife is way cuter than me. And you know how adorable I am.

I have a photo of you playing Battletech at Gencon 2007 with Demongirl and a stuffed Cthulu. You're the sixth-cutest thing in the photo behind Demongirl, the Cthulu, two of the miniatures on the table, and a random chair.

That... is a fair assessment.

I laughed waaaaaay too hard at this....

Threadromancy!  O0


Hey guys, I'm slowly getting my feet back under me. I've asked the store for an August date: my intent is to run the Scorched Earth Worldwide Event on that date! I will post it as soon as I get it, and I'm hoping we can get a nice meaty bit of attendance to welcome the return of WWEs!


What became of the Lyran campaign against the Rim Worlds League?
Fortunately, the counter attack by the RWR succeeded in displacing the Lyrans, even after they succeeded in hiring some skilled mercenaries at the cost of 1 assault Mech. (Admittedly, the 4 mercenaries were all in Light Mechs)

But hey, your liege lord was able to sell the whole debacle to Richard Steiner as a "reconnaissance in force", providing solid data for the LCAF attack that followed but a few weeks later. So he didn't have to lock you all up for "going rogue". Yay!

Paul

[Cubby]

Any campaign that doesn't end in a firing squad is probably a win...

See? Lyrans won!

*stares at his August in contemplation*

Hmm...looks like the 26th is the only date left open for me. 

Darnit Paul, but welcome back to the land of the living :D

[Paul]

Well, whadayaknow? August 26th it is!

Paul

[Cubby]

Hm....same day as the MacGregor - Mayweather fight, but that's not until the evening. Assuming whatever plans I come up with for that don't turn into an all-day event, I should be there.

[Engineer]

I'm organizing a side event for 5 aug at G&S if anyone here is interested.

1.  grinder: my grinder idea is everyone bring in one sheet for light, medium, heavy, and assault. you can bring something you like and hope to get or a stinker you hope you don't get. after a death you can pick a mech of the same class and go down in gunnery and piloting. starting with a 4/4, or pick a mech of the next weight class

2. I can pull a one off game from one of the scenario packs and have something like a company on each side. opinions/feedback/preferences?

That fight isn't going to be worth watching, and you know it :p

Unsure I can swing that day, but don't let that slow you down!

Solid premise, I presume Mech selection will be random?
Prob a good idea to print a few sheets for people who don't see your post.

2. I can pull a one off game from one of the scenario packs and have something like a company on each side. opinions/feedback/preferences?

I presume you want to do just one of these, right?
The scenario will be less work for you, so may be the best option if you get low response.

Paul

[Engineer]

thanks for the info Paul, I'm not expecting a huge response either way.  looks like maybe 6ish so far.

[Paul]

6 is pretty good!!

Paul

[Firesprocket]

See? Lyrans won!

Boo!

Cleaned that up for ya.

Interested, but I'd need more details.  All depends on if any conflicts come up (which have far to frequently and recently).

Well, whadayaknow? August 26th it is!

Paul

Works for me.

[Demongirl]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

two options.  both will be noon until whenever.  a variantion of the standard grinder or a Tukayyid scenario

[Kitsune413]

That's all about six days after my classes start. Not sure I'll be able to make it. But I'll look into it.

[Engineer]

Paul,

got a game planned for this month?

[Kitsune413]

Guys I am dying... ugh. This physical therapy assistant program...

[Paul]

Next event: Saturday October 21 from noon till 6!

We'll be playing a grinder, but I'm going to try to accommodate people's personal design preferences. Want to make sure you get a particular ride? bring it along (or tell me so I can print it), and we'll get it rolling in the 'slot' that best accommodates it.
(it'll probably match the weightclass like normal, but depending on how weird a thing you bring, I may have to get creative as well...!)

We'll also use the event to discuss what to do 'next': perhaps another short campaign? Return to Solaris? Maybe something tourney, or something with custom designs?

Wraith TR-2 (the one with wings) (because that's what I'm painting next)
Marauder, any variant (because that's what I'm painting after that)

What about something using Chaos Campaign, track-based? The linked scenario seemed to be a hit, why not see if we can all keep a merc unit alive?

This is what my vote would be for, or something that Paul is comfortable with using that would allow a 'growing' campaign.

Paul, sent you an email as well.   >:D

[Paul]

We can do Tracks. Just realize that it can be pretty brutal...
Still in the vote collection mode right now though: don't be discouraged if you dont want a campaign: let your voice count!

Good day all-

I had the pleasure of joining the Games and Stuff Battletech crew for one Saturday months ago and kept meaning to make another event but my schedule never worked out.

I'm hoping there are future events so I can try to attend!

[Paul]

Cool, does the 21st work for you?

Paul

[themailedfist]

Sadly....nope!   Maybe November 4th?
