Sorry I couldn't make the game this weekend. I was very excited to field my shiny new GM-fiat-bestowed Atlas II, and then I heard someone (Paul?) was stomping around in a Hellstar.

Nope, Jenny!
The best thing I got was a Summoner.
With smoke ammo for most of its launchers.

They *did* give me tandem-charge SRMs, and they had a few chances to prove how broken they are. ;)

And here I was just hitting him up to maybe run an AToW game in Baltimore.

Nothing firm at this point.  Just discussed.  Time and place was brought up by someone else.  I'm open most weekends, though I will probably be limiting my travel for at least a month. I broke two toes after I returned home over the weekend and don't like hobbling around very far.

Yeah, I'm going to do a recon of the game store up here in northern VA and get an idea and pitch a date.

Just saw this thread, I'm in DC but could travel for a game.  I was also interested in playing some Battletech and especially running or playing A Time of War...I have a 3025 campaign concept worked up but I've never actually run the system before, so don't mind playing in someone elses game for awhile to get a feel for it.

I think I'm spoken for this weekend.  It makes me sad because owe a couple of you a DFA and a charge or two.  I guess my 'gift' to Paul will have to hold off until at least July.

Beautiful. It's not often you watch four Mechs get in a conga line and politely allow Paul to make a DFA right into the middle of it. Well worth the price of admission.  O0

Man...I love/hate summer activities taking me away from a day of sitting inside under fluorescent lights.

Let me guess: the next game is...July 23rd?

I don't think Paul had a date set when we left this one- or if he did, I wasn't smart enough to remember it.

yeah, whenever it is, I'm up for showing up early and setting up my heroscape terrain in whatever configuration Paul is wanting (within reason) and also I can pickup anyone else wanting to head in early from the NVA area. 

Also, weren't we going to discuss continuing, resetting, or doing something different?

I believe he was planning on one more time to allow a couple of the missing players a chance to get their chance to play with their latest ride.

Yeah, Renee has a treat for everyone. (Which I need to get to work on painting this weekend if the weather allows me to prime it...)

EDIT: Also, FYI for regulars... the Hunchback IIC is gone. Sam finally traded the little monster in and now is the proud (and bullet-sponge-worthy) owner of a Marauder IIC-4, the one with the stereo HAG-40s and jump jets.

Ugh. And here I just got into a GM-fiat-ed Atlas II.

But it may not matter. If the next game is Sat, July 23, I can't make it--Yankees game in the Bronx. Every August Saturday is booked. And the third Saturday of September is my all-hands-on-deck work gala event.

See you in October?

so now there will be two Marauder IIC-4 in the game since this is what I bought after the last time I killed same a couple of months back.

You suck. We hate you. And miss you.

Yep, at least 1 more Sol7 trip. Too many of the regulars didn't make it.

Asking for a date in July and August. For the next Sol7 thing, let's start plotting what can be done, and what time you want to meet there. (11?)

Has Paul ever actually said it's going to be the 23rd? Last we heard here, he was still asking for July and August dates.

He has not, but this being Paul he may not say anything about it being the 23rd until the 22nd.  ^-^

July 23 is the date, noon is the time: the final episode of Solaris Melee Challenge! (At least, for now)

Come romp, come stomp, and if you haven't been, I'll ensure you get something useful and fun!

August 20th is the date after that, and I'll take votes from those assembled on the 23rd as to what to do in August.
