I'm just being greedy. I want doubles of the existing water maps so I can do things like a wide river, an island chain, or a city canal.

Why yes, I do have some boats nearing the end of my painting queue, why do you ask? :)

Got my copies of Universe and FM Davion today and both are significantly damaged in the box. Sent an email to customer service but I've seen so many horror stories on here of never hearing back   :sad:

Some FLGS distributors seem to have Force Manual: Kurita and the first House Davion (Heavy Battle) Force Pack up for pre-order now.  Just as a heads-up that they're coming out the end of the pipeline

Tuesday Newsday #28 had Rem note that Force Manual Kurita has an October 30th release date (as well as the McCarron's Armored Cavalry Force Pack as a B&N exclusive).

I thought the Hetzer identified as an ATV?  :huh:

I believe it was originally introduced as a “Wheeled Assault Gun”, which is pretty on the nose.

I was wondering about that also. What changed in the update?

There were a couple of oopsies in the RATs I believe.  Probably other usual things, like units being in the wrong place

And is live on DriveThruFiction, which makes FM: Davion's continued absence from DriveThruRPG all the more puzzling.  I asked Rem about it during the stream on the 15th, but judging from the newsday transcript there was no update on the 22nd.

Battletech Universe has been a top-10 selling title on DriveThruRPG since it was released.  Surely, someone at CGL is wondering why FM: Davion has sold 0 copies on the same storefront?

I'm guessing either on Tuesday to coincide with Tuesday Newsday or on Halloween.  Either way, I'm hopeful and looking forward to it.

OH, that reminds me!

I was going to try and set up a Beast scenario from Homeworld: Cataclysm/Emergence for Halloween!

But our normal night isn't on Thursday, and Friday is already committed for something else.

Well, I guess I got another year to plan it and iron out the details.
