The Inner Sphere / Re: Question: mixed infantry/BA companies organisation
« Last post by Gorgon on Today at 03:05:50 »You know, just yesterday I was thinking about attaching a squad of mag-clamp BA to a platoon of PBI. Load the conventional infantry into a Winterhawk or something else that goes 9/14+, hang the BA from the sides and rush them to where they're needed.

Iron Wind Metals News and Announcements / Is IWM Finished With Con Exclusives?
« Last post by GRUD on Today at 02:54:07 »I Hate to ask this, but is IWM finished making "Convention Special" minis? 
Looking at their site, the last LE mini I can find was from '18, though we Seem to have got several that year. I'm going from the "Copyright" date of the pics, but looks like we got the following in '18.
(ALL are Jumping sculpts.)
Agrotera
Enforcer III
Jade Hawk JHK-03 (Thought we got it before '18 though?)
Shadow Hawk SHD-2Hb
Super-Griffin
The Jumping T-Bolt (-10M) is also Copyright 2018, but I know we got that in '11. I Thought we'd gotten 1 or 2 at GC '19, but I can't remember them at the moment.
They outright canceled GC '20, due to Covid, and there was enough "Rumbling" early in the year for IWM to halt any plans, but I never heard about anything that HAD been "Planned" for that year. I know they'd mentioned that they had Planned on "a couple" (I think was the term used) for GC '21. But then Covid delayed the Con (from AUG to SEPT), and we still didn't get them even after the delay.
We were also never told What they were. (Ok, I never heard What they were! 
) And we didn't get any for GC '22 or '23. They've had "Convention Specials" since GC '21, in that they had certain things On Sale, but we haven't had any LE Miniatures.
Can Speck or one of the Sculptors please chime in on this?
I know that I would LOVE a Re-issue of the old RP Assault Lance Box Set! One Battlemaster, one Marauder, and TWO Warhammers! We could even have 2 DIFFERENT WHMs!

Recommended. It's Sabaton for a fictional battle, and fully gets the joke.

« Last post by ColBosch on Today at 01:47:52 »If the Urbie LAMs ever come out, will there be record sheets for them??
I know there are 2 different models for them so it would be nice to have.
From what I understand, the Urbie LAMs will not have record sheets or official rules. They are specifically non-canon and are meant as a "fun" thing for fans.

General BattleTech Discussion / Re: Project Aphrodite
« Last post by ColBosch on Today at 01:46:41 »Exo-humanism is a bit advanced for Battltech. That's more of a Millennium-concept; the people in Battletech are from the '80's; the have a natural-aptitude for glam-rock and heavy-metal, the get an extra-die to resist drugs and alcohol and they can smoke, a lot.
Not sure what you're trying to say here, but BattleTech canon (since almost the earliest days) absolutely says that humanity had baseline genetic engineering to explain how we could colonize worlds that "modern" humans would die upon.
