  1. MW 5 Mercenaries. It has been years and years since I last played an MW game. That would be MW 1. (no, really).

    If you've played it, do you recommend it? Is it something that a more casual gamer would get overwhelmed with?

    I have a decent US joystick when I was going to try FS2020. Is that a good idea or a console controller?

  5. Flashback 90s
    Gravis Firebird, joystick programmable qui avait plus de boutons sur sa base que la plupart des manettes de l'époque n'en avaient au total.

    Qui a usé ses mains là-dessus ? Quels titres ?

  7. "When Gregor Samsa woke up one morning from unsettling dreams, he found himself changed in his bed into a monstrous mercenary..."

  8. Some samples of my Dwarf Fortress Mech Bay. Incomplete, I plan to remove the floors once the walls are engraved.

    But I passed the save on, so we’ll see how things look when it is given back to me.

  9. Getting into #Battletech as a setting after playing the HBS game, So I've started reading the House Kurita sourcebook from way back.

    I'm about 16 pages in and we haven't hit a recognizable political division or the creation of a battlemech yet.

    1) am I going to have to go through the complete history of the formation of the great houses with every one of these source books?

    2) Why did 80s writers seen to think they needed to outline all of history from the current year to the settings year?

    I like a good life path. Helps give background to characters and being them to life right from the start.

    Other examples I can think of include Mechwarrior and HOL.

    My favorite HOL random event is “God blamed you, personally, for the death of his only son. You are cursed.”

  16. Назад в прошлое. Часть 2. Интервью с Митчем Гителманом. MechCommander, MechAssault, Battletech, Shadowrun

    Сегодня вашему вниманию предлагается продолжение ранее начатой серии интервью с различными фигурами, некогда внёсшими тот или иной вклад в игровую индустрию.

  17. I suppose I should share some of my interests to find folks who have interests in common.
    As a reader and (fanfic) writer, I write and read:
    #BattleTech (or #MechWarrior if you will)
    #MyLittlePony (of course)
    #DoctorWho
    #Crossover
    #ScienceFiction
    And I’ve got something in the works that I’m hoping to finally launch on FiMFiction within the next year. My job and other life stuff has been making that… difficult.

    As a gamer, I enjoy to varying degrees:
    #Chess (and #5DChessWithMultiverseTimeTravel. Is that not a hashtag yet? It is now!)
    #BattleTech (again, though I’m mainly focused on the #MechWarrior spinoff series in that regard)
    #SupremeCommander
    #Minecraft
    #8BitArmies
    #EliteDangerous (and #EliteDangerousOdyssey because that apparently has its own tag!)
    #PlanetaryAnnihilation
    #MegaMan
    #SonicTheHedgehog
    #Halo

    There’s honestly a lot more, but that covers most of the biggest players in my fandom life right now.
