I still need to figure out a color scheme. the Republic Standing Guard were Olive Drab with Maroon Trim, while the 12th Vegan use a sort of dry woodland camo. the GhostBears were grey with spots. so drawing on their backstory hasn't been much help.

I'd said that my #GhostBears are mainly old style metal, and the CGL Kodiak wouldn't fit...so I had to buy one of these:

I've had this Kodiak in the Ad Hoc Star box for YEARS waiting for paint. Since my regular #GhostBears are mainly old style metal, this wouldn't fit...but it fits with my new #RasalhagueDominion forces!

To wrap it up is the Summoner B I added in to round it out. It has almost the same core sculpt...just a little bigger. And, even though it's the one with ALL the missiles, the hips are bare.

While there was a story to be told for the #GhostBears in the #MarauderIIC video, it really wasn't as interesting as diving into the war between Clan Star Adder and Clan Burrock, which is very much tied to the creation of the Marauder IIC 2 and 3.

This will be a fun part of the video. #Battletech

I've got a number of classic Vultures, so I decided to use some of the (many) period-correct bits and my a C variant for my #GhostBears.

I guess after yesterday's response, here: more hips.

The add-on for the Mediums is the Stormcrow B, rocking that Nova death fist and a big honkin' canon.

This speaks to my aesthetics.

I've always loved that the Dragonfly/Viper looks like a WWII plane someone slapped limbs on.

On to the Mediums. Love the Stormcrow on the cover of the box and in sculpt, even if it isn't accurate. One of my favorite mediums, across the board.

Like the Assaults, I added a 5th mech into the Lights to get a full star. It's a more accurate sculpt of the Fire Moth Prime, but I hate it's slightly bigger AND they made the legs skinnier

People always talk about how scary Clan Heavies are, but seriously - the Lights?

There's a version of this one that mounts a whole-ass Arrow IV system!

Aside from the missile-launchers-without-missiles, I think the Mist Lynx is one of the few that honestly didn't need a redesign. Love this sculpt.

I feel that Clan Lights punch WAY above their weight, and the Adder is a prime example. Those two ER PPCs coupled with decent speed is just nasty.

Might as well get into the light omnis. I always paint these old ones up as the D, because it works better with the "missile launcher" on the sculpt.

Yesterday was the last *official* Assault mech, since these sets were four to a box - but we need a STAR, right?
I have several of these Highlander IICs around, so I've been slotting them in.

Last official mech from the Assaults box is the War Hawk. I have always loved this mech. My original from when I was a kid is on the shelf, still waiting to be painted for the #blackthorns.
