Guess that confirms no ilClan books for GenCon.  Oh well, box sets.

Seconded. Neat game concept, fun system... what a waste.  :-\
Yup, that game would be great for the table or computer.

I think I hear a new unit name: Cubby's Cute Cubbettes!

To stay on topic, I'm glad to say that I got about a chapter and a half of "Shattered Fortress" edited in her delivery room, and a little more since, so I'm on pace. I tried to recruit her as my Research Assistant, but she fell asleep. Typical slacker baby.

Maybe she was just hit by "new player syndrome" when she saw the number of rulebooks. ;)

So with the legal stuff settled, does that mean the marauder, warhammer, wasp and Phoenix hawk are going to get added back?

Inquiring minds and such :)

While it looks very good, I think it is still a tad early do declare the legal stuff over.  Judge hasn't signed off, etc.

Ok, let’s see what I can do. Apologies in advance, as I have had a non-trivial number of old fashioned’s tonight. Also, the black shirt has nothing on the back.






And a couple from IWM since I have no idea of they have pics up on their site or not!



Please tell me that I can buy these shirts online and have it shipped to Europe for whatever price is necessary

Also, the alpha strike image: Is that a mousepad?

Actually I would like a retrospective TRO going from the Primitives to the nuseen to the Reseen Phoenix, Reseen 3085 versions and then onto versions of them to the time jump.  All new art for everything of course.  And I'd like an out of universe introduction giving an explanation of the significance of these units.

Seems perfect if you want to get old and new customers buying the same product

1000 times this. I'll offer my services for free to CGL to help format and lay out Shim's art for the new pages.

Speaking of which, when Zilly signs this bad boy, which can't come soon enough, can we haz new art for Crusader, Ostsol, and Ostroc plz?

Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah!

Prsonally, I never want to see the Unseen in any future BT product, be it done by CGL, PGI or HBS. Those images need to and must be consigned to the past. Lessons learned and all that. We have the New Classics, th Primitives (where applicable) and the Project Phoenix renditons. Do we really need to see the Unsen ever agains out of our own respective memories?

1) Sorry, shirts are typically sold only at the conventions. If that has changed, I haven't heard about it. However, that doesn't mean you couldn't convince a kind-hearted fan going to GenCon to pick one or two up for you and ship them over.

2) Yes, that was a mousepad.

Agreed, I want Shimmering Swords new art everywhere they can put it: TRO Succession Wars, MasterUnitList, in PGI's next MWO mech if possible, and over on HBS' Battletech game if possible. I don't want the old art. Let it die.

Long live Battletech!

Yes. This so very much. The old unseen art was good for as far as it went, but as far as Battletech is concerned, Anthony Scroggins' art is by far superior for the context of the game. As soon as the first few were released, the "retcon" swich in my brain was hit, and these are what the iconic 'mechs now ALWAYS looked like to me :thumbsup:

Who mentioned bringing back the Unseen? Everyone is talking about the new art. :)

All right thanks for clearing that up for me.

I know that Lance packs are a taboo subject but who could get behind the following lance packs?
Recon Lance: Phoenix Hawk, Valkyrie, Stinger Wasp
Pursuit Lance: Ostsol, Ostroc, Ostscout Scorpion
Fire Lance: Longbow, Archer, Crusader, Rifleman
Assault Lance: Marauder II, Goliath, Marauder, Warhammer, 
This with the new box sets I think would sale and you would have all the mechs in plastic! Then Iron Wind Metals could offer variants on the base designs.
I may have a low amount of posts but I have a PHD in Battletech and mechs older then most people on this board!

They're not a taboo subject at all. Discuss away!

I like that line-up.

It won't happen. There is a 0% chance that Catalyst will produce more lance packs.
