So how was the read...

*I am trying very hard not to go poke the Horsies.

 Was great! New mech variants and some more info on animal species which is great for fluff,nice info on the planet that I didn't know before. Worth the money and the wait honestly.

The opening fiction is 20% cooler if Tikki is read in Rainbow Dash's voice.

Part way done assembling my star! Got the Karhu done and almost finished with the mad dog mk4. Girlfriends 6 year old is helping  so it's a fun little ptoject.

Seeing we have the Horses here...

I am seeing the Omni Corvis and Minsk as fairly faction specific. (I am not giving away any secrets 😉) Maybe the Kokou? How do they perform?

Ogotai and Fox are Sharkies as per Strat Ops.
Issedones are a possible western identification of the Chinese Wusun (descendent of the raven). So there is a hint.

Enjoyed the read: need more!

Didn't get to play my massive battle :( opponent got a lot of hours at work and my second opponent canceled. Silly Spheroid Scum. Oh well gets me more time to actually base my Elementals and order my other Fire Moth!

 Do you have the multiple elementals to a base or the single?

I want to do the multiple: I've seen the single and while they look good: I'm not a painter. I'm basically gonna clean and do a REAL basic paint job. Putting five on a base might be crowded but I personally think it's my best bet.

I find if you base three facing one direction and they other two facing the opposite, you can squeeze all 5 on the hex.

Nicknames are not contractions, any more than "sibko" is a contraction of "sibling company", or "aff" is short for "affirmative".
Contractions are mostly things that use the apostrophe to denote two words that have become one. For instance, "it's" for "it is", "wouldn't" for "would not", etc.

What do you want to run? There's a Cluster in Delta galaxy that only uses jump-capable mechs and configurations which is kind of interesting.

Delta wouldn't be bad. Used a mad dog today and had a blast with it! Despite all the damage and the gyro hit it took, he still kept standing and dishing out damage. Easily one of my favorite ghostbear mechs.

Unless you want a canon scheme, can't go wrong with a mix of blues, greys and whites

Er...which ones? And since when? I'm actually very curious about where this info comes from
