Weird-O

That's a shame. A kid that grows up in a place like that becomes the kind of evil overlord with a solid grasp of practical lair design. No losing minions to poorly placed pit traps for that Dread Queen of Venus! Minions whose living quarters aren't constant death traps live to be loyal and experienced minions. And when you have experienced minions and want something done right, you don't have to do it yourself!

Is that what causes that?! My old Eclipse had that problem for quite a while before I finally sold it. Always wondered what was going on there. Certainly explains why the AC died entirely, a serious issuein Texas.

Yup, that's them. Ebay sent me spam asking me to buy König.

Technically, it comes with its own parking space...in Scapa Flow. I did not, because my wife is having a good day, and murdering me would be a bit of a downer.

I'm still skeptical, but I'll stop filling up this thread with it so people who like this can get on with the business of liking it.

I've never wanted to print out and frame spam mail before, but eBay's never sent me messages asking me to bid on a battleship before, either. Not a mini or model, and not one of those smaller ships that the news calls a battleship because it's got a gun or two on it. An actual battleship.

I can't imagine how they could have the exact same mech name, model number, and correct stats without it being infringing.

Well...yes.

There are two Battletech boxes in print right now, and there's a big difference between photocopying sheets for your own(or your group's) use, and printing those sheets on whatever material he uses to sell them to folks. I'm looking at the record sheet for the Locust right now, and it says "© The Topps Company, Inc. BattleTech, 'Mech and BattleMech are trademarks of The Topps Company, Inc. All rights reserved. Catalyst Game Labs and the Catalyst Game Labs logo are trademarks of In Media Res, LLC. Permission to photocopy for personal use." I'll admit that it might not necessarily be copyright violation. But if it's not, it's certainly IP theft, or something similar by another name.

Wow, they're not even trying to hide the copyright violations...

Muahahahaaa!!! Statistics shall be my blade!!

Here's a Strike Point question: Can you target multiple Strike Points, in the same way(and with the same penalties) that a CAV can shoot at multiple targets with a normal Ranged Attack? I assume that if yes, you would be required to declare which weapons were aimed as which Strike Points before rolling any dice, to prevent shenanigans or abuse.

Never heard of it, sorry.
