Hey pros,

I have a bunch of Battletech mechs from Wizkids old clickey game, but they're all rebased, and I don't know what any of these are. Two questions:

1. Once I've identified them, how do I search for the images on the Master Unit List page (e.g., I want to customize a card, and use the image of the mech I own, even if it's not quite the mech on the card, like I own this mini: http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/7633/vulture-mk-iii-mad-dog-mk-iii-blo, but I want to put his image on this card: http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/1982/mad-cat-timber-wolf-e)

and

2. Can you help me identify these 16 mechs (one is technically a tank... And apologies for the slightly blurry pics for a few, hopefully that's adequate)

Thanks!



I play...

Sigh.

Who am I kidding? I only paint these days...

Sorry, not so good with the Dark Age stuff, so I can't do much in the ID department.

However, I'm pretty decent at this part.

First you need the image on the internet, and it's URL.

Second, get the stats you want to put on the card. If it's just a carbon copy, great, just open the other card in another window, and you're good (though your example IS two different chassis). Most of those should have an Alpha Strike card once you know what to look for and it's type over. Being able to have 2 windows side-by-side will make this a lot easier.

Third, go to the Tools option in Master Unit List, and select the Alpha Strike Card Generator.

Fourth, fill out the stats so they are appropriate. At the bottom is the "Image URL" box which is where you put the URL of the image you are trying to import.

Fifth, click the "Generate Card button and it will generate an image of the card, which you can save, copy, etc, and then play.

So, here's the expanded image of my Thanatos that I use for my Avatar as its baseline card:
