MainGunnery, are you working on a Field Manual or another XTRO?
The additional information can only fit in a Field Manual, also it will be difficult to justify many more new designs.
So more tech heavy than Design heavy? I can dig that.Will there be some boondoggles included? Not 'needs further development,' or 'limited production,' but outright failures?
Something related that I am working on:[The Next Technological Jump] Every great technological jump has occurred after consolidation of knowledge from a period of extensive experimentation. Clan technology was the result of the last technological jump, in which the scattered knowledge of the Star League was brought together allowing for early Clan scientists to quickly make that massive jump. The last century has seen a huge amount of experimentation as various factions tried everything to keep or create an edge. Since our retreat to the Inner Sphere we have been busy with preparing for the next technological jump by gathering, linking and disseminating data. Partly as a result of our actions there have been a growing number of hints that humanity is on the precipice of the next jump. The possible rise of the IlClan under the Clan Wolf alliance is the perfect tool with which the Society can trigger the technological jump. But an IlClan under the Mongrel Jade Falcons will trigger a reign of destruction not seen since the worst days of the Succession Wars. As such the Society has dedicated a lot of resources for secretly aiding Clan Wolf, however should our work go to waste then the Society will have no choice but to either retreat from the Inner Sphere or to openly attack the Falcons. The latter option being a means of last resort, as a large scale open attack did not go well for the Society last time it was tried.
I promise no new function tech, boondoggles or lostech at best.
I'm kind of surprised only the destruction of the Succession Wars was mentioned. Not the Pentagon Wars, the Reavings, or the Jihad.
Have you considered pushing the IS powers to launch a joint attack?Or that a cold war suddenly going active might spur the next advance?
Well the Pentagon Wars and the Reavings are not relevant as it concerns the Inner Sphere, also the Succession Wars were worse then the Jihad so that was skipped for being not severe enough.
You'll have to tell me the secret of getting people to keep commenting on your things :D
I think it's because has pictures involved....
Will the Axion, Tachyon, and the other ASF you made for that Project Legion challenge show up?
I love the Hellstar so the Gatekeeper is a 'Mech I enjoy. It says the 'Mech must stand still to allow it to go weapons free in it's primary configuration. However, unless I'm mistaken, it has 31 double heatsinks, which means it could run and fire without heat build up. I couldn't find anything suggesting the Interface Cockpit or Nova Cews generated heat.
How did you get such big-name artists to help out with your Fan Tro? I mean the art is just amazing. I love the Core Ship. That's nuts.
