OC I recently got into BattleTech and back into painting minis. Am pretty happy with how these have turned out so far. Definitely keen to pick more up!
I've been playing MW5 with some mates and were playing as a fictional mercenary group we called Ironclad Company. I decided to follow in that vein and try and think of a scheme that could suit them.
I found Duncan Rhodes draconian combine tutorial super helpful and substituted my own colours in. Games workshop's website has a great recommendation system where you can pick a single colour and it will automatically recommend others that go well with it.
Why not both!? You could always have a mix of both to play against! 😁 I know my plan is eventually to have an IS company and clan Trinary to pit against each other
I've not really had any exposure to the TT game short of BattleTech on PC but I was a huge MechWarrior 2 fan back when I was a kid which has persisted ever since.
Definitely enjoyed the couple of small TT games I've tried though!
I was massively impressed! I got mostly IS boxes as I've only the starter set and I've yet to dip into the clan stuff.
I've played a couple small games with my partner(1-2 Mechs each) but we're a little space limited to have a full sized play area. I'd say I'm more into the hobby aspect but definitely not limiting myself to just that. :) What about yourself?
I deffo enjoy the hobby aspect of it for sure, but for me Alpha Strike is where it's at! My kiddo (9) and I play a fair bit of hex-based Alpha Strike. Other than that, not a whole lot. I do miss long games with a star or fewer mechs, but there's something to be said for seeing a good 8v8 or bigger match taking place.
