Yeah, we did the plates a couple weeks ago. I can always dig out the Gobbleball scenario, or whatever clever title I gave it at the time, and we can do it again. I dont know that I have it saved, it would likely be in the previous threads.

I'll shoot you a list ;)

I won't be able to make it on Sunday. I do have Monday off if anyone is interested though.

Awwww, sorry to hear that man. Mondays are not really possible atm, I'm afraid.

Whistler is not only a noted winner, he's a man's man, a generous philanthropist, a noted big game hunter, and a lover and a dancer. If he had a mustache it would be impeccably waxed. When he marches off to war, everyone else stays home.

Seems I was incorrect about Sunday's plans so I should be able to be there after all.

Still waiting on the schedule, so if I can make it I’ll just go along with whatever you guys are doing.

Alright, so outside of the launch party thing being a disappointment, we have some choices: I’ve been talking to the lead over at TTS, and they are looking at that Sunday so to their unofficial launch day event. Do we want to go over there? Or do we want to run our own thing? I was thinking a Grinder and some beginner tables, so we’d need both big tables at Gen-X.

I’m cool with either and I get it if people don’t wanna go over that way. If we wanna run something, I’ll have plenty for us.

New Battletech Players in the area, just was reading through this form, the first page and more recent posts, and wanted to verify the locations listed on Page 1 were still relevant since either location is a decent drive for me. I am located west of Fort Worth.

Welcome!

That info is indeed correct. There's also a few other places in the Metroplex that see regular Battletech games, but they're mostly to the east or north, in the Dallas or Denton sides of things.

I understand if it's too far too comfortably drive on a regular basis, but if you ever do find yourself in that half of the planet on a game day, feel free to drop by! Regardless of what we're playing that day, we'll always have something you can drive. :)

Thank you for the welcome!

Yes, finding the time to head over to Dallas can prove difficult especially having 2 little ones (3 & 1) but I do look forward to trying to make it out and have some time on a table.

Howdy! More than welcome over at Gen-X when you can make it. You can probably assume we are playing battle tech or Alpha strike, but check in here to see just in case. We play a bunch of other stuff, but we usually give notice beforehand.

Yep, Battletech and Alpha Strike are my current interests for tabletop, but am generally open to learning other tabletop games.  Yeah GenX is a little closer (1 hour with no traffic) compared to Madness (1.5 Hours).

Note: the madness crew is over at Dallas games marathon, down the street from madness. I’m sure there are people who still meet up there, but you’d have to check out the Discords and Facebook groups.

I have been working on an asymmetrical scenario along the periphery. Conventional Militia only, no mechs, Vs an invading Clan Nova.

If someone would be interested in bringing a 300point Clan Invasion era Nova I would be down to do a test play of it.

I won't be there, but let me know how it goes, that sounds interesting!

On a similar note, on April 2nd, I'll be running a classic scenario from the old Tales of the Black Widow scenario book. Roughly company vs company, so ideally 2-3 players per side.

Well, after going back and forth a bit. I’m thinking we should just run a grinder at Gen-X ourselves. Unless anybody has an objection, I’ll write up something and get it posted here in a day or so for the 26th.

Thanks for hosting this, was a lot of fun and a great way for a new player to dip their toes into full blown Battletech.  Look forward to joining y'all on other weekends there.

Bring whatever, just make sure to read up on it real quick before the game, lol. Usual 3/4 pilots. One of each weight class, you know the drill :thumbsup:
