Unseen!!!!!

Now that I've got that out of my system...
I'd say these most likely look twenty times better IRL. The photos aren't doing them justice. Some really nice old designs in this collection hope they see the tabletop more regularly than mine.

Long Live Battle Tech!

My introduction to Battletech was in 2014. Played a game of classic and pretty soon went and bought a Kurita Lance. Collected a few more of eBay on the cheap when I knew what I was looking for and orderd a few more from Iron Winds Miniatures till I had a full three lances. Still want me a Grasshopper and an Ostscout but never worry. Someday maybe.
I still have a Star of Smoke-Jag Clan Mechs to paint up. I should get them done.
I used to read the novels and write Battletech Fiction, I was really into it for a year or two but not so much of late. Its always nice to see a big of Battletech love on Dakka though.
If you're interested you can see all my mechs in my Gallery. And plenty of single-hex objective markers too.

Its not so impressive a collection as yours and not nearly as rare but its been fun to get out of the GW sphere and has opened my eyes to a whole other world of gaming.

Thanks for bringing the Battletech to the party.

Nice to see the super old plastics (and bonus points for Robotech inspired paint schemes on the first lance).

I see a Battlemaster in there - that guy was badass
