At least Sarcasmo seems to have had something like an actual bachelor party.

If I have my way, my Bachelor party will be a quiet night in with a few beers, a pizza and a couple of good DVDs....
Delivered from the blast,
Last of a line of lasts,
The pale princess of a palace cracked.
And now the kingdom comes;
crashing down undone,
And I am a master of a nothing place,
Of recoil and grace.

I've never understood the appeal, honestly.

Yeah, you kinda made my point for me.

My own stag night was golf in the AM and a cigar bar in the PM, with (I'm told) excessive drinking, even by my standards.

Anyone up for a game later?

Does anyone have any idea what Flitvelt's parade colors will be like?  Or even suggestions.  I may or may not have a reason for asking.

No. and I really would *LOVE* to find out. Depending on the era, a lot of their machines are from the Malgrotta CrMM, and the Filtvelt Academy Training Battalion has never had colors published.

I'm sitting on MM at mechadynamics.net, Port 2345, if anyone wants to do some stompy robot shooting.

Well I started painting my first mini today. Got the base coat down on a Battlemaster and I'm fairly pleased with how it looks so far.  Next I'll have to wash and drybrush it.

If you guys are going to be gaming I'll have to get MegaMek on my laptop so I can watch while I play Deus Ex.

Per TRO:VA (y'know that useless TRO) the Outback (Filtvelt) and SW Trinity worlds both engage in a vehicular activity know as Mudsliding.  Basically, deliberately induced skids in muddy terrain.  Per the Skoda/Iveco Burro Truck entry.

I imagine they'd paint their 'mechs flat OD or green drab. If you want to get fancy, they could keep their CrMM scheme but use the Filtvelt colors.

The Panther in the Filtvelt banner looks appropriately muddy. ;D

All that paint would be awfully expensive. I think bondo and primer would be fitting, no?

I ws thinking blue w/red trim or Red w/blue trim for the Filtvelters. Of course, it could just be the bland, unimaginative 'appropriate camo' scheme
