Are there any Vehicle of the Week articles planned?
Because I would like to request an article on the Clan Ishtar, one that takes the look of that particular tank and rolls with it all the way into hillarity land.  ;D

I am fairly certain that I will have the Sarath ready to publish this week.  I can always look at doing a vehicle assuming it hasn't already been done.

Sarath posted.  I would have liked to have put move into the article about experience playing the design.  Thus far however my games that I have used it have been a very short use time.  I used a B once and spent most of the time running a long away across the field to get to the battle and then sewed some chaos.  Today I used a Prime and in it's opening round of fire took an HPPC to the head :(

It appears the Ishtar has been done once before on the old forums, but I can't find anything that has been reposted.   I can write it up if others believe the old post is lost to the void.

Would anyone be interested in doing a Mech of the Week article for the Juggernaut or Colossus?

I had not planned to do any additional Clan Vehicles.  If there is a demand I might reconsider it.  Most of the older ones first printed in 3060 would be pretty much the same back stories.    IO can probably look over the Colossus and put something together.  I don't think it would be done by the end of this week though.

I'm going to try getting back on track here, for my part, and start working on the Quickdraw article.  I'll let you know if I can get it ready for the 19th.

I'll have the Juggernaut ready to go for this Friday, so there's no rush. I'm polishing it now.

I got slammed at work so I've been bushed all week.  QKD article isn't ready yet.  I'll get it up this weekend, but it'll be late.  Sorry guys.

I've been holding off posting my Nexus article in case The Eagle was able to come through with his Quickdraw entry (which I am, by the way, really looking forward to) but if no one has any objections I'll put it up on Friday as it's all ready to go.

Yeah, life keeps getting in the way.  At this point the 16th is a more attainable goal for me.

The article has landed.

I've been playing with a lot of Blakeist stuff recently so I think I'll do the Grand Crusader next.

Gonna do the Thor/Summoner as it seems there's no article about it which is a tad strange.

Think there might be even two of those.
EDIT misremembered but there is one:

The fan article directory has wrong link, it links to Centaur Battle Armor.

An article was done not that long ago, some time last year. But one can never say too much about the Thor  ;)

I can try to write something up this weekend. I was doing some research for the Trojan (shameless plug: go check it out  :D ), I can do a MotW for the Spartan, which has definitely not seen any recent posts

Odd, I did a search and didn't find the summoner other than in old articles.  Well that saves me writing that wall of text...so many variants...
