Clan Blood Spirit Enclave: Heroes of Our Time

[rebs]

Making up NPC's? Do what I did back in the day, base them off people in the forums and you work with.

Brilliant!  That's worth a Guinness for sure.   O0

[Terminax]

I meant more in the technical sense. I do wing lots of characters, relying on stock templates I've made up. I would never base any character on someone from my personal or work or online lives. I can whip together character concepts really easy, it's the bloody stats that are a pain. I use Index cards to keep track of all my NPCs and I've got like three boxes worth.

What? Afraid to sic the likes of Wombat or ILUVWOB or Tassa Kay on your characters?  :D

12 pages and no one even mentioned the most rabid, frothing-mad Blood Spirit fan of all time? I'm gonna go join my Clan in death now. :X

Well, you do keep dropping off...and, it seems like we have gotten alot of new people. If it makes you feel any better, I was
thinking the other day "You know...I haven't heard from Tassa in a while? Wonder if there was a ban involved from passionate
discourse, or if family/RL issues hit again?"

[tassa_kay]

Just having intermittent/spotty access is all.  I'm alive and well, unlike Dear Leader Karianna Schmitt. :)

Know that whether or not I'm here on the boards, I'm with all of you in spirit (see what I did there?). Mara, Top, Stormlion, Hengist, daishi, and everyone else who have made being a Blood Spirit fan not only bearable, but thoroughly enjoyable. I've finally moved on as a player from their demise, but they'll always have my heart. I wouldn't still be a BattleTech player if it weren't for Clan "GET OFF OUR LAWN".

:)

Clan "GET OFF OUR LAWN"

I'm stealing that!

And HIYA TASSA!

My word, your avatar is green! Nice change from the red.

[Col.Hengist]

yea, stealing that one too. Howdy Tassa! nice seein you again. I think that should be the next thread name. Much better than the Clan: Emo my friends were calling me.

I didn't forget, I just didn't think to ask where you have been.  ;)

Yesterday's game was a muddled hectic mess. We had three character deaths, all in connection (one in a roundabout way) to the trials and politics of the highly coveted Loremaster slot but the new player prevailed in the end and it's great that I've got two really good and engaging players in leadership roles. Allot also went on in the reformation of the Blood Guard Keshik. All the teenage players came yesterday which caused a little bit of panic and dragged down the pace of the game. Eleven players all at once is too much for to handle so I've got to work a way to work that problem out.

Anyways, the new Loremaster player is a devil. He's from a LARP background so he's very theatrical in his play style compared to most of the other players. Really fun guy. He's playing it definitely as a check against the Khan's reform agenda and finally gives the saKhan player someone to play off of with his own reservations. The players are realigning the Clan's Touman and have to Wednesday to submit all their changes and shuffling around. I know they'll have at least two Galaxies - Alpha and Beta and the Blood Guard Keshik but the various players have their own wants and desires. Clusters are seeing changes from the Blood Spirit's usual orthodoxy but I don't know the details of those changes yet.

He *should* be afraid. :)

[Maelwys]

Sounds like its a fun game.

Good to see you back Tassa.


I think everyone just assumed you had been banned for some odd reason :)

[Crimson Dynamo]

Any outstanding reasons anyone can think of why I shouldn't pick up some Cecerops ProtoMechs? An opportunity is presenting itself...

My only other ProtoMechs are a Point each of Siren and Gorgon, if that matters any.

[Maelwys]

It isn't bad for an ammunition dependent scout. It doesn't have any of the electronics, but its fast enough to get to places where your opponent wishes it wasn't. Unfortunately, its weaponry is what you'd expect from a 3 tonner moving 9/14.

I'm not sure if there's anything it can do your Sirens can't already.

[Stormlion1]

Except get painted and added to your collection and then used as cannon fodder in a large game.

[Terminax]

I use the them just like I used to use Stingers, Wasps and Locusts - mobile spotters and backstabbers. Use their speed to keep them safe but close enough that when heavier elements engage they can swoosh in there and plink away.

[ShockaTime]

I highly recommend everyone takes a trip over to camospecs. Blood Spirit got some mad love.

[Col.Hengist]

WOW! Those are beautiful! I totally forgot to hit cso this morning. Thanks for the heads up Shocka. I can't tell which one i like the best. They're all fantastic. SC is fast becoming one of my favorite painters.

Gotta go with the Crimson Langur. They're all fantastic but I'm a sucker for that mech.

[Col.Hengist]

Yea, i love that little bastard too. I have 4 lol.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Omega Galaxy is the snazziest scheme in the Touman, but I hate painting white with such a passion.

Also, I know the Spirits were strict in enforcing the 3/1/1 Trinary rule with 'Mechs, Vees, and Elementals on the Cluster scale, but with what likeliness would you see an ad-hoc Star like 3 Proto Points and two 'Mechs, or three Protos, an Omni, and some Elementals?

[Fatebringer]

<<Peeks in>> This place has been very busy of late. I do not mind giving some credit to the designers of the Crimson Langur too. :) Was happy to see it on our RAT and it is still one of the few mechs they have not tried to confuse me with by giving it two names :P

[Col.Hengist]

Omega is nice but Upsilon is the shit!

[tassa_kay]

Love the scheme on the Blood Asp, but I dislike that sculpt. The second sculpt (I think?) is the one I prefer by a long shot.

Omega is nice but Upsilon is the shit!

Totally agree!

I'd say after 3067, all bets are off as far as that goes.

[Fear Factory]

Tau and Omega are my favorite.

[alex blood spirit]

question of the day ----if the spirit's where to create new equipment what woould it be???? new weapons,battle armor,protomech or battlemechs or tanks???
 :) ;D ;D

[Fear Factory]

ProtoMechs.  I'd bet on that for Burrock as well.

[Stormlion1]

Well if they rose from the dead or were a pirate faction out on the fringes of Clan Space I could see the Spirits coming up with a new standard mech lines, dedicated Lights, Meduims, Heavy and Assault Battlemechs. Not Omnimechs and use these designs to swamp battlefields with firepower to kill dezgra Star Adders.

[Top Sergeant]

Tau and Omega are my favorite.

All mine are painted up as Omicron.

[Col.Hengist]

Omni protos. I don't know why it's not been done yet.

 Also, omni's built on all standard parts ie. no ff, xl,es.
